Is this just an American thing?? Well now along comes a Fashion brand that mirrors my style of food..<a href=\"http:\/\/www.zappos.com\/Lucky-Brand\">Lucky Brand<\/a>. It stands for a time when quality and pride came first..just like artisan foods.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They are produced using the methods that were created when pride and quality (not quantity) came first.<br \/>\nWhat began as \u00a0a brand of jeans,\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zappos.com\/Lucky-Brand\">Lucky Brand \u00a0<\/a>has\u00a0 now expanded into jewelry, clothes, accesories,handbags, eyewear. The styles and quality actually take you back to a time of small town America.\u00a0 when it was &#8216;the norm&#8217; to smell fresh apple pies ,made from scratch baking in the oven.\u00a0<br \/>\nBut the one thing that I really love is that even though<a href=\"http:\/\/www.zappos.com\/Lucky-Brand\"> Lucky Brand <\/a>harkens to the time of small town America, they also have their own style and don&#8217;t do it like anybody else..much like creating your own recipes. Follow that recipe and make soemthing &#8216;from scratch&#8217; but add a touch of your own style and don&#8217;t compromise your style in giving up quality. The same philosophy I express in cooking.<br \/>\nAnd yes ,my books, even though the main subject is food and cooking are also related to style ..my style..<br \/>\nMangia bene, Vivi Bene,<br \/>\nMaria<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>copyright 2009, Maria Liberati My latest bestselling book gives a special thanks to my stylist for helping me develop and create my style throughout the years..however a review critic found&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[27,57],"tags":[670,9,671,672,673,589],"class_list":["post-1041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-caro-diariodear-diary","category-features","tag-clothing","tag-food","tag-jeans","tag-quality","tag-small-town-america","tag-style"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1041"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1041\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marialiberati.com\/freshsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
