Made In Italy NYC -- Think Hot, Sexy, Trendy, Italian & American.

If you're young or think young and want to be part of the growing trendy Italian American community here in the New York area, then you must become acquainted with the Made In Italy NYC organization. The group is organized by dare I say a bunch of very attractive, successful Italians, now living in NYC, who have made being hot, trendy and Italian one in the same. Their organization was created in the passion for cultivating and gathering youthful Italian Americans and Italians into a trendy, fashion forward, savvy world. Look, its not all about gold chains, canolis and Cadillacs...we've fallen victim to this stereotype for so long, that breaking away is truly a challenge, so my suggestion for the Italian Americans looking to identify with modern and trendy events and networking, look no further than Made In Italy NYC. You can become a contact in their organization and receive invitations to some of the most exclusive gatherings in NYC. Check them out.

Salvatore Ferragamo Family Purchases Exclusive Villa Estate in Tuscany. Agritourism Never Looked So Good.

When you hear Salvatore Ferragamo you think "Shoes," gorgeous shoes. Well, Ferragamo through the years has evolved into an international fashion powerhouse since the times of Salvatore Ferragamo's small shoe business. I love fashion and I love travel. I mean, I'm Italian==of course I love these two things.

I was actually watching one of my favorite shows on NYCTV 22 and caught an episode of Video Fashion-behind the label, with Judith Licht. She did an expose on the Salvatore Ferragamo label and interviewed the entire Ferragamo family. She began with interviews on the traditional business but then what I discovered about the Ferragamo family is that they own different travel, hotel and villa estate businesses in Tuscany, Italy.

Judith Licht broadcasted her interview from the very exclusive Tuscany estate owned by the Ferragamo's called, "IL BORRO." Just breath-taking. An estate with views that you can only dream of, rustic, but yet high-end. They feature and offer everything on this estate. Agri-tourism, wine-making, wedding catering, and high end stays. This is the stuff you can dream of and actually visit. Now, if you have the cash flow to finance a trip to this locale, then great. But if you don't, I strongly suggest just checking it out online. It opens your eyes to the magnificent destinations in the world, especially Italy.
