Colette's Bella Vita: Tocca

In honor of the Rome Film Festival, I dedicate this Polyvore set to one of Italy's most famous films, Fellini's La Dolce Vita! The depiction of a journalist's week in Rome, this film allowed the world to romanticize La Citta Eterna.

A touch of Italy

In 1994, a group of friends from St. Lucia founded the clothing and beauty brand Tocca in New York City. Although St. Lucia is in the Carribean, the brand's name, Tocca, means "touch" in Italian.

While browsing Italian-inspired products on Polyvore I came across an array of their beauty products, which are available at Sephora. Inspired by the St. Lucia beachgoer, Tocca's products are exquisite and affordable. With a variety of price ranges, their items have potential to be fantastic holiday gifts!
