A Fanning Sister Night Out Is All Smiles and Easy, Breezy Summer Style
The brief walk from the parking lot to Giorgio Baldi restaurant's host table has established itself as a pantheon for more than one faction of celebrity taste. From Rihanna to Justin and Hailey Bieber, and Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos, it's not just about establishing a penchant for the particularly hot Italian restaurant; this is where celebrities hang out and dress up for their cheese ravioli. Elle and Dakota Fanning joined the Baldi heads yesterday evening, heading to dinner at the restaurant in complementing silky, monochromatic looks. Younger sister Elle wore a black silk slip dress that hit just below the knee, with sheer straps and panelling that snaked down the bodice with light embroidery, paired with black kitten heels and a small rectangular clutch bag. She wore her light, golden blonde hair loose and in a middle part, with minimal makeup save for her signature red lip. Photo: Backgrid Dakota opted for an oversized white silk shirt worn open and over a silk v-neck top, with flowing black pants and a ladylike boxy handbag. She also kept her makeup to the basics, and her blonde hair relaxed in a similar fashion to her sister. Both looks were in the same rhythm of easy, breezy summer evening style—and it looks like Dakota saved her white silks from any red sauce spillage.

City restaurant proves 'dreams come true' with authentic wine bar and cafe plans
OWNERS of a city restaurant are a step closer to making their dreams come true with an expansion to create an authentic wine bar and café plan. Gianluca Tilotta and Gaetano Cinao, who own Benedictos on Sidbury, revealed their extension plans are a step closer after a meeting with interior designers. The Sidbury business will remain open while work is carried out to extend the store to accommodate a café, wine bar, and boutique hotel. Benedictos currently serves as an Italian restaurant and acts as the hub for Gianluca Austin-Rizzo's wine business, the Rizzo Wine Club. Gianluca Austin-Rizzo is the director of Rizzo Wine Club and manager at Benedictos. (Image: Benedictos) Mr Tilotta said: "We will open the coffee shop in the morning and the bar at night, and we hope it will offer an extra facility for our customers, so people can keep enjoying Benedictos. RECOMMENDED READING: "Our dream is to have a proper Italian coffee shop. "There is a lack of accommodation in Worcester, and a niche boutique hotel in Worcester was always something we wanted. "We never liked the building from the side, so we can now have it looking amazing at every angle. Inside Rizzo Wine Club tasting room on the second floor.

The Sidbury business bought a section of King Street Car Park from Worcester City Council to make way for the extension. The extension will also house an extended kitchen area, an accessible toilet and four guest rooms on the first floor.

The new wine bar will be an extension of the popular Rizzo Wine Club, offering wines that are not often seen in the city. Mr Austin-Rizzo, director of the Rizzo Wine Club and manager at Benedictos, said his club is currently run from a wine tasting room on the second floor of the restaurant. Within two years, the wine club has grown to have 600 members.
