A gift


I hardly miss the occasion to celebrate, and last Saturday wanted to find a little gift for my beloved Mr.


The perfect occasion for a walk in  the city and brighten a very cloudy and gloomy day ...

Ice Iceberg 

I was wearing brown fishnet tights  ( which, in my opinion,  go nicely with everything in winter!)


Woollen grey hat  ( the best  solution against frizz hair!!! ) and a yellow bandana matching my skirt...


I can't tell you how much I walked, but at the end I found the  scent, the one I would have loved to smell on him ...


In the evening I gave the present, received one and enjoyed a lovely time. 
Have you noticed?  To give is at least as pleasant as to receive...


I never forget to celebrate ... it fills my heart with joy! 


Happy Valentine's day ...

    I love the bright yellow skirt - it certainly does brighten up a grey day with a splash of colour!

      There are days that need some extra brightness, right?

    Buongiorno Dan,

    Is it Valentine's Day..? I'd never have guessed! Lol. There is so much tat in the shops. I love the location of your photoshoot and again you look oh-so-Italian stylish. What a fabulous skirt, (both colour and design) and great accessories with the fishnets and neckerchief. You look a bit chilly in the first picture so I hope you had a coat waiting in the wings. Acqua di Parma...heavenly. x

      Ha ha! My warm coat was nearby...and I couldn't wait to put it on again!

      Valentine's decorations were everywhere in the city but they didn't mind me ... every day is worth to be celebrated! I was feeling so happy ...

      I saw fishnet tights on the F/W Max Mara collection and immediately fell in love with them!

    Gifts maintain a relationship. Just as saying how much you appreciate the other person. And doing things you know the other person likes. Do to others what you like them to do to you. So applaus Dan.
    And you looked very stylish in your search. Yellow is such a bright and happy colour.

      I love the moment when a gift has unwrapped and see the joy in the other person' s eyes...

      I have already posted my yellow skirt but I love it and, besides, clothes are not supposed to be worn just once...right?

      Very right. I cannot remember seeing this skirt and I see all your posts. So it is new to us.

    Happy Valentine's Day to you too, Dan, and of course to give is at least as present as to receive, sometimes even better! Love how you brighten up the gloomy day with that yellow skirt! xxx

    Mee loves the design of this skirt, it is modern and daring. Also, the color is beautiful. Great look, great outfit with beret and scarf. The stockings of the grid are perfect.

    I'm sure your valentines day has been filled with love Dan. I am loving the brightness of the Yellow skirt! It looks fabulous against the Blue. Yellow will be a huge hit in the colour stakes this year according to the Pantone forecast. I hope you can join my link up on Thursday evenings. That would make my day xx

      Yes, the shape of my skirt recalls an origami !( I didn't notice...)

      You are right: I could snatch some drops of the perfume now and then...to be honest...I very often prefer masculine scents!!
