The first part of today's post is for Greetje, who wanted to see the dress I was wearing in my last post. In fact it wasn't clearly visible in the photo of me sitting on the bench.
Armani-Furla
Now I am wearing it with my boots, a blue bag
and a red necklace.
Max Mara group
As temperatures are low at the moment here, I am wearing the dress on another one and then, when I go out, I add a long candigan on top.
By the way, the dinner which I had been talking of last time, has been a success, ( it also included homemade tortellini, and that sounds really unbeliable !! )
With Christmas and New Year's day which are at the back, now there is only one celebration left, on the 6th of January
In Italy, according to the tradition, an old, ugly woman, flying on her broom, will bring presents to good children. For those who misbehave, there will be a stocking filled with ( sweet ) coal...
If you hung your stocking ( I always do ), I hope there will be some presents in it!
Lovely dress! Such nice colour and print. I love its design too, simple yet interesting.
ReplyDeleteHi, Olga! The colour of the dress is difficult to define ... it is halfway between blue and violet, in photos it is a bit different...
DeleteI like the dress, but you know me, I'm too busy drooling over that lovey bag! ;) I'm glad to hear that your dinner went well, homemade tortellini-I'm impressed! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI only prepared homemade tortellini for Christmas! For the rest of the year ... salad and frozen foods!! (soooo quickly ready! ) Happy New Year to you too, dear Flo ...
DeleteHappy New Year dan! Love your dress, but I especially love your bag and shoes :D Very chic bag. Hope it's been a good start of the year for you. Thank you for popping round my blog whenever you can :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I had a lovely start of the year! I hope the same for you and ... let's hope it will keep on that way!!
DeleteP.s.
I surely will look at your blog soon...
Wow dan! You look so pretty! I love the idea of layering the dresses. The blue shade is perfect on you and the red necklace is a great contrast. Your stocking will overflow with nice things ❤️ Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too, Dana! I often wear two dresses one on another longer one, generally because ... dresses are too short for me !
DeleteYou sewed delightful stockings, I think I should copy your idea and prepare a special one ....
Another lovely dress. So clever to wear it on another dress for warmth. This type of dress is difficult for me as the sleeves are too short and you need to have hips to shape the dress. You have them, I don't. So you look ever so gorgeous in it. I like the addition of the red necklace. Very pretty. As is your blue bag!!! I still am very happy with my blue bag too.
ReplyDeleteYour shoes make everything modern. I am hopeless at shoes. Just know how to buy pumps.
Greetje
When you bought the blue bag I realized I hadn't got one in that colour ... and than I found that Piper Furla bag which seemed waiting for me! :-)
DeleteThose shoes go well with thick dark tights ... ( perfect for winter! ) my frozen feet couldn't stay a whole day in a pair of pumps! :-)
I go to the office with thick boots and change when I have arrived. Then I can walk in pumps all day with the heating on. And walking on carpet. (Some pumps have hardly seen any streets haha.)
DeleteLucky woman!! There are no carpets around where I work ... :-(
DeleteFantastic look and cute dress! Kisses.

Many thanks, Maria!
DeleteHello Dan, I love the style of the dress and blue looks great on you. I also am a fan of structured bags, so yours is lovely. Happy New Year, jess xo
ReplyDeleteplease stop by when you can, jess xx

Happy New Year to you too, Jessica! To be honest, I am a fan of ( almost ) every kind of bag!
DeleteI will stop by very soon...
Lucky You! Yet another celebration! I know you will get a stocking full of presents because you are so lovely! I'm glad Greetje asked to see this dress because it has beautiful and interesting lines! And of course, your incomparable shoes and bags! Oh, how I envy you your shoe closet! :)
ReplyDeleteHooray for homemade tortellini. Time consuming, but so worth it, yes?
Well, the 6th of January is a day dedicated to children, but ... why don't enjoying it when grown up??
Delete( I always try to have a pleasant living )
P.s.
Homemade tortellini are delicious but... I only prepare them for Christmas!! ( besides I know a shortcut to prepare them quickly :-)
The detailing is so unique. I love this dress on you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Glenda!
DeleteHappy New Year, Dan. Such a great dress on you, interesting detail and a lovely blue. As usual you have the best bags and shoes.
ReplyDeleteDear Jill, I wish you all the best for the New Year!
DeleteI am very fond of accessories and when I see a new special one, can hardly resist ...
Happy New Year dear Dan! You look amazing in this gorgeous blue dress. I love this extraordinary cut and that you make it appropriate for cold weather with a dress underneath.
ReplyDeleteSabine xxx
Hi dear, and I wish you a wonderful New Year!
DeleteThe trick of the dress underneath allows me to wear many of my dresses ( almost ) the whole year round!
What a fabulous design, this shade of blue is marvelous! You have the figure for it! I do layers too but I never thought of layering a dress over a dress like you did, great idea! I like the necklace with it.
ReplyDeleteI still have my Christmas tree up, I am in no hurry to take it down because I love Christmas and January is so dull without Christmas lights.
Happy New Year my dear!
♥ carmen
Hi Carmen! With your perfect figure you can wear a dress over another one ! I find the trick works well in winter ...
DeleteI am missing the Christmas lights, the city looks sad without them ... at home, my husband ( who is in charge for decorations ) always undo the tree before going back to work! :-(
Dan,
ReplyDeleteI love your blue dress and I'm so very glad that you showed it here. How smart it was of you to layer two dresses. It is cold to New York and I hate it ! I'm so glad to know that your dinner was a success. Happy new year and I hope that this year brings all good things.
Xx, Elle

I hate cold weather too! I don't like going out when temperatures are too low! Luckily January also means that, little by little, spring is approaching ... ( and with it jackets, silk scarves and so on! )
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you, dear...
Piękna sukienka, wyglądasz zgrabnie i elegancko. Uwielbiam sukienki i niebieski kolor.
ReplyDeleteWszystkiego najlepszego w Nowym Roku!!!
What a lovely dress and the beautiful handbag. You should post more outfits. You look great.
