Merry Christmas to you !

Christmas wishes to you ! Have a wonderful Christmas day !

Just a little post to wish you all a Merry Christmas ! I hope these days will bring joy and peace in your hearts. I am so grateful to spend this day with my family, I really have many material things and it's always nice to unwrap gifts, but truly the most important thing is to be healthy and to be surrounded by people you love. As every year, I am going to wear a Christmas themed sweater and spend Christmas day eating and laying on the couch, watching movies and...eating again !. I suppose you are going to do the same !.

Auguri di Buon Natale a tutti ! Trascorrete uno splendido Natale !

Solo un piccolo post per augurare a tutti voi Buon Natale ! Spero che questi giorni portino gioia e pace nei vostri cuori. Mi sento grata perché posso trascorrere questa giornata con la mia famiglia, ho tanti beni materiali ed è sempre bello scartare regali, ma la cosa più importante è essere in buona salute ed essere circondati dalle persone che amiamo. Come ogni anno, indosserò un maglione a tema natalizio e trascorrerò il giorno di Natale mangiando e spalmandomi sul divano, guardando film e...mangiando ancora !. Immagino farete lo stesso !.

Abstract print skater dress

Hey guys, how are you doing ? Today's outfit reminds me of the sea, with a lovely skater dress in abstract print, featuring blue and sea green. This is the last set of pics taken during my holidays on the Amalfi coast, in a place that is very dear to my heart, since it's the place where I got married three years ago ! Being in that Cloister reminds me how I felt on that special day, and it's enough to move me a bit. I am hopelessly romantic ! After all, this look could be perfect for a dinner date, don't you agree with me ?.

Ciao a tutti, come state ? L'outfit di oggi mi ricorda il mare, con questo adorabile vestito svasato a stampa astratta, nei toni del blu e del verde acqua. Questo è l'ultimo set di foto della mia vacanza estiva sulla costiera amalfitana, ed in queste immagini sono in un luogo che mi è molto caro, dato che si tratta del posto in cui mi sono sposata tre anni fa !. Ogni volta che torno in quel Chiostro mi ricordo le bellissime sensazioni provate quel giorno, e mi commuovo un po'...che ci vogliamo fare, sono una inguaribile romantica !. Per restare in tema romanticismo, un abitino del genere sarebbe perfetto per una cena a due, non credete ?.

Trend: french fries print

Hey guys, how are you doing ? I am still kinda stressed and in need of a vacation more than ever, moreover the weather isn't being helpful...it's very mutable, and I am trying to enjoy each day of warmth and sun at a time, knowing it might change quickly. The other day it really felt like true summer, and to have a walk with hubby I decided to opt for a very laid back casual outfit, with ripped shorts and a fries print blue tee I found on Blackfive. The add of a roomy bag and my Lemaré black and white Oxfords helped me to create one of the most comfortable looks of all the time, so the walk was long...and, as ever, it led me to some cool shops for some good shopping ;).

Ciao a tutti, come state ? Io ancora sotto stress al lavoro e con forte bisogno di una vacanza, inoltre ci si è messo anche il meteo...è molto variabile, così cerco di godermi ogni singola giornata di sole e caldo, sapendo che potrebbe finire da un momento all'altro. L'altro giorno ha fatto davvero caldo e sembrava, finalmente, di essere davvero in Estate, così per una passeggiata col maritino ho deciso di optare per un outfit casual molto rilassato, con pantaloncini strappati ed una tee blu con stampa patatine fritte scovata su Blackfive. L'aggiunta di una borsa spaziosa e le mie Oxford senza lacci bianche e nere Lemaré hanno creato uno dei miei look più comodi di tutti i tempi, così la mia passeggiata è stata lunga e piacevole...e, come sempre, mi ha portata in alcuni bellissimi negozi per un po' di sano shopping ;)

Cream lace dress, Majestical necklace

May is said to be the month of roses, and when I saw these beautiful red rose bushes I took the chance to show you my latest outfit surrounded by their perfume and color, I love them !. For this look I am wearing maybe the most romantic dress I have in my closet, it's a delicate cream lace dress from Chicwish, that I chose to wear with a few edgy pieces, just like my beautiful statement necklace from Majestical. 

I like the mixture of sweet and romantic details with something "strong" as studs and black leather, just like I admire the beauty of a rose with its thorns, because after we all have more than one side in our personality and I think we should embrace what we entirely are !.

Si dice che maggio sia il mese delle rose, e quando ho visto dei bellissimi cespugli di rose rosse ho subito approfittato per mostrarvi questo outfit circondata dal loro profumo e colore, le adoro !. Questo look mi vede con indosso l'abito più romantico che ho nel mio armadio, un abito in pizzo molto delicato, color crema, di Chicwish, che ho deciso di abbinare ad alcuni pezzi particolari, come la mia nuova, bellissima statement necklace di Majestical. 

Mi piace il mix tra dettagli dolci e romantici e qualcosa di "forte" come le borchie e la pelle nera, proprio come una rosa sta bene tra le sue spine, perché dopotutto ognuno di noi ha diversi aspetti della personalità e dovremmo valorizzare ciò che siamo completamente !.

Quid bracelet: Jewelry to remember

I've always loved customized jewelry, the idea of wearing something that is not only beautiful but also has a deep meaning to me, and today I wanna tell you about QUID, a new quality brand producing customizable jewelry, all Made in Italy.

Quid is new way to tell our story and to represent our passions and desires in a unique object, as we can choose shape and colors of our jewels but also a word or an important date. 

I have been struck by the "Numeri Primi" collection and ordered my own customized jewel: the lovely bracelet you see in the pic, it's a fun piece of jewelry to wear in Spring/Summer and it has a deep meaning to me.

Ho sempre amato il concetto dei gioielli personalizzabili, l'idea stessa di indossare qualcosa che non sia solo esteticamente bella ma abbia anche un significato profondo per me che la indosso, ed oggi vi voglio parlare di QUID, un brand di qualità che produce gioielli belli e personalizzabili, tutto Made in Italy. 

Quid è un modo nuovo di raccontare la nostra storia e di rappresentare ciò che ci piace ed amiamo in un oggetto che sia unico, in quanto possiamo scegliere liberamente sia colore e forma dei nostri gioielli che farvi incidere una parola e/o una data per noi importante.

Io sono stata colpita da subito dalla collezione "Numeri Primi" ed ho ordinato il mio gioiello personalizzato: questo adorabile braccialetto che vedete in foto, allegro e perfetto per la Primavera/Estate e con un significato profondo per me.

April is here, and as ever it's time to recap my outfits from the previous month ! In March we had coats, furs but also "lighter" outfits more suitable for Spring, just because the weather was very variable.

Aprile è arrivato, e come sempre è giunto il momento di riepilogare i look del mese precedente !

Come sempre, ho indossato sia look casual che più eleganti e "ladylike", non potrei mai focalizzarmi soltanto su uno stile, morirei di noia !. I miei look preferiti di Marzo sono il n. 2, 8, 9 e specialmente il n. 10. Sono curiosa di sapere, invece, quale preferite voi, fatemelo sapere ! ;)

It's the right time for a new outfit post, this time it's pretty simple...just jeans and sweater, sporting a tan colored faux fur jacket. Basic colors for the jacket and the sweater, that allowed me to play with one of my favorite and most extreme statement necklaces.

Ciao a tutti, come state ? Io mi sento abbastanza stanca, ultimamente ho avuto troppe cose da fare in troppo poco tempo, quanto vorrei poter avere giornate di 48 ore !. 

E' giunto il momento di un nuovo post outfit, questa volta è abbastanza semplice...un paio di jeans ed un maglione, ma il vero protagonista è il mio pellicciotto beige. Colori basici sia per la giacca che per il maglione, che mi hanno permesso di eccedere con una delle mie statement necklace preferite.
