Velluca Scarves, Trunkt
05.Oct.2005, 02:05 amWhile I enjoy the occasional mocha, a pinch of espresso brownie, or a lick of fudge, I’m not much of a chocolate girl.
Nay, when in the depths of despair — my breakfast cafe is out of soy milk for my latte, or I’ve spilled my iced coffee (soy latte substitute) on my favorite dress — I turn to cheese. Fashion-y tabloids are okay, bad romance novels better, and fresh mozzarella and pumpkin and ricotta ravioli obliterate any feelings beside pure bliss.
Luxuriously comforting, richly homey, touched by a casual Euro flair, each cheese is unique in flavor, every bite soothes and excites –
“– while it feels like ‘comfort food’ it’s exquisitely beautiful and sophisticated,” says Katie Gold, designer of Velluca. Speaking not of my amore, but her own, she continues, “Velvet has a personality of its own. It catches the light, plays with it, and is extremely versatile.” Velluca — a play on the Italiano word for velvet, “velluto” — is all minky velvet stoles and beaded peacock scarves that are luxe-cozy, the perfect pick-up for an OK outfit or bad day, and the made-in-Oregon scarves look much more flattering on.
Than those pounds of cheese.
