Celebrations are over!



Hi, darlings!  What about your last weeks? 


In Italy we celebrate on the 6th of January the last national holiday of Christmas time and , if you add that both my mother and husband have their birthday in the first week of the year,  can understand that I had a very busy fortnight !  


Many of you have finished everything concerning  the celebrations  days ago,  but this is Italy, you know...


In any case,  between a dinner with parents and a meeting with  friends for  greetings  and wishes 



during the last two weeks I found some time to take  photos for the blog! 


Here, they were the days between  Christmas and New Year 's eve


We were sooooo tired! 
( but luckily now no more celebrations for a while, my dear...)


Next week something about a  journey I did ...

    1. To be honest red is not among my really favourite colours, but I wanted to try something out of my comfort zone ...

      Happy New Year to you too, Rebecca!

  3. Looks like you had a busy time celebrating, Dan! I'm really loving the colours of your outfit, and you look absolutely fab! Must be all the celebrating ;-) Your handbag, and your picture of it, is fantastic, and like Fiona I may have to borrow the idea! xxx

    1. Ha ha! Celebrating can really have a positive effect on the mood, but can also add a couple of kilos to your silhouette!! :-(

  4. It's such a wonderful time of year---all the hoopla and celebrations. But I think that's what also makes it fun for it to be over---just getting back to normalicy!!
    I love your fur collar--I'm assuming it's not attached to the jacket! But I love that it has ties on it!!
    You look exceptional in this, Dan. In fact, I normally don't wear monochromatic looks, but I may copy this one!!

    1. Celebrating is a way to take care of dear ones but, yes...at the end I couldn't wait to go back to normality!!

      I will be very glad to see a monochromatic outfit on you...

    2. I forgot...the faux fur collar is not attached to the jacket! I can wear it on many different jackets and coats!

  5. You made very good use of that fur collar. Grey and dark red are very good together. I love how you combined all those colours of trousers, bag, boots and jacket. I would never have come up with such a combination and it looks great.
    Well done.
    Congratulations with your mum's and V's birthdays. Please congratulate them from me, will you?

    1. Oh yes, I wear the collar very often! It's so soft and warm!!
      Red and gray is a nice combination, isn't it? It is not well visible in the photos but the jacket has grey rims...

      I told mum and Vincenzo of your congratulations:many thanks !

    1. I like when trousers are a bit short and show the ankle. Perfect for my beloved booties!!

  7. Such a lot of lovely berry colours here Dan. I think your boots are fab and work really well with your handbag. How cute is your sweet little dog!
    Have a great week x

  8. Happy New Year! Those boots are lovely, just my style. Grillo definitely looks like he's had a bit too much of the holiday. I didn't realize that Italy celebrated the 12 days of Christmas.

    1. Happy New Year Flo!
      In Italy we celebrate the new year and the 6th of January ( and of course Christmas day). But,since the schools stay closed from the 23th/12 until the first working day after the 6th/01, it means a long time.
      People usually meet relatives and friends and organise dinners together ...

  9. Love those boots! How sweet is your pup all dressed for winter!

    1. I don't often wear red, but is not bad going out the comfort zone now and then...

  14. Love the color 'clash' - I am so conservative with pant colors, this is an inspiration. Well done
