My dog and co.

 Dogs are smart and sensitive animals. They can give you a lot of love and ask for  very little.

Everyone of them has his own personality. I see these two almost every day while going at work. In sunny days they sit in the playground and enjoy the warm: wise boys!

  Completely different two...

...and here there is my little Bangio relaxing in his bed

Making things

  

I made this necklace wih some stones and a pendant I found in a little shop

And here my lady wears the jewel. A long necklace is nice on a  plain dress

That's me!

Here you are some THAT'S ME! notes ( if you are interested in, otherwise skip! )

Looking around

PIAZZA VITTORIO

Day off today. Rain and some snow. Quite cold outside, but why miss out a morning walk with my sister?

GREENGROCER

In Torino you can find traditional, lovely, little shops almost everywhere. Here you are some other

SOME CAKES IN A CAFE'

CHEMIST'S

CAFE'

In the end a stop for a delicious cappuccino. Pleasant morning despite the weather!

A new brand I've discovered

KIKO

Today is snowing again here. We are at the end of February, so I would have preferred a sunny, warm day. However, I left the same for my morning coffee and as  some shops where open, I bought some stuff I needed.

A couple of mounths ago I discovered  a new brand : Kiko make up Milano.

My skin is getting dry because of cold weather and central heating, and needed for extra care, so I started using an oil make up remover.

I found it worked for my skin type and, as I took it, added to my shopping cart also a moisturing, energizing, 24h cream and a night treatment for eyelashes.

I have to say that at the end of my shopping I  was pleasantly surprised by the price!

In my bag

MAX MARA

My bag is my world when I'm not at home. This one is the last I bought. I like it because is large and can keep all I need.

COCCINELLE-CALVIN KLEIN-MUJI-NIVEA-CLINIQUE-RASPINI-VIVI VERDE COOP

When my granny came and visit us (it was ages ago! ), I was very interested to see what was holding in her purse ( and I can still remember she always had a little perfumed handkerchief ).
What's in my Max Mara today: an enormous, brown wallet with a lot of fidelity cards (many shops have one ), sunglasses, a muji felt tip ( in case I have to take a note ), a bunch of keys with a little mirrow, a selection of tiny glosses and lipsticks, my even more small Nivea cream  ( that can't miss in winter ! ) , my beloved Galaxy tab (which I use for taking photos ) and a pack of tissues that my grandmother would gringe!!

Stilish sunglasses

CALVIN KLEIN

I am a big clothes fan and spend a lot of money on shopppig but I am also a glasses fan.

Nowadays you can choose hundreds of fashionable frames from designer collections, and as I saw this one  I felt in love!

Making things

MADREPERLA E AMETISTA

I am especially proud when I get to create a piece of jewelry or an accessory.

The idea of making your own jewelry may sound funny, but this creative hobby allow you to wear something UNIQUE!

The necklace you see is quite simple to make.

Outfit of today

MY SELECTION...

Look chic with a three quarter length wool coat. You can wear it over anything and it gives you confort.

Add a grafic print dress, bicolour shoes with block heels and a large taupe bag.

...AND THE SKETCH

A gift I love

Three days ago I received This pair of earrings. They have got a little snail and and a light pink flower. It was love at first sight!

I find they are perfect for spring that is coming. Aren't they?

not just a cup of coffee

I am very fond of coffee and cappuccino and really like to enjoy a little break evey now and then.

I like to watch throught the window while I am drinking and to look at people passing nearby.

Sketches

For my section SKETCHES I drew my young lady wearing in black, white and grey.She has got a scarf  tied to her fabulous handbag, high heels, a checked skirt and a dark sweater.

I find she is  nice. Isn't she?

This time the lady wears leggings  on a pencil skirt and a close jacket.

She nodded the skarf around her neck

St. Valentine

Happy st. Valentine to all of you! It's nice to come back home and find your "boy"  waiting for you  with a  smile on his face.
If he has got a little gift to give or not  doesn't matter.

A kiss and a trick...

...or a rose (and a kiss ) ?

                      

My dog and co.

Bangio is my beloved little dog. He is an old fellow now and in winter he spends most of his time sleeping on my bed. 
He doesn't like being alone at home and when realises I am going to go out, sits on the bed like a soldier, staring at me with his big brown eyes.

snow on the town

Today is snowning! And it's nice to go around taking pictures...

details that seem normal became special: magic of snow!

outfit of today

MY SELECTION

I like putting things together, matching colours and fabrics with my personal taste.
Why don't try a little light pink and a fabulous bag?
High heels (but non too high ) are a must.

MY SKETCH

And here there is my sketch!

CARNIVAL

I've never been very fond of Carnival as a child ( too noise, too mess or perhaps I was too shy )... but a few days ago I saw something that attracted my attention.
I found these shop windows where beautiful and I took some pictures.
