Last week I asked for some help.
I couldn't find a good translation from Italian and many of you suggested me the correct one....
( I should have said rubber or waxed cotton instead of gum ).
I know I have much to learn yet in order to make my English-speaking fluent and I sometimes think that my followers are very kind to keep on reading my posts...
So today I want to thank you for your patience and for your help to improve my English ...
To my look now!
I am wearing a linen cardigan with a blue pencil skirt.
The cardigan has been made adding a metallic fibre
for a most creased look...
No matters how long you iron the cardigan : you can never ever produce a different look!!
Funny, isn't it ?
It's a sort of...shabby chic style perhaps...
In spring with sudden changings of weather and temperatures, I need smart ( and stylish ) ideas to stay comfortable!
Today it's chilly here and I am wearing leggings to keep my legs warm ...
Have you ever worn leggings with a pencil skirt?
I added my small handbag for a most grown-up style.
Afternoon at home today and some time for taking photos on the balcony where my plants are blooming!
The sun is shining inside me despite the rainy day...
I always manage to get what your trying to get across to us Dan! I like the leggings with the Pencil skirt. Because they look lightweight they pair up quite nicely xx

I am glad to read that you get the meaning of my words! My English will improve one day... (I hope!!)
DeleteYour English is very good indeed Dan, I speak a little French but couldn't write a blog in it. I haven't worn a pencil skirt for about thirty years and I've never worn leggings because my legs are not good but you pull this look off well. Your azaleas are lovely! xx
ReplyDeleteA pencil skirt is a versatile piece , it can be the starting point for many different outfits but sometimes needs a little updating!
DeleteP.s.
You made me happy saying that my English is good, Fiona! ♡♡♡
You ask to improve your English, I would like to communicate with you in Italian, a language that I find wonderful, and so close to mine, Catalan. Today you wear a very nice look, the jacket is beautiful, the pencil skirts I love and those leggings underneath make me think of our friend Greetje. She always tells me that you have influenced her a lot, today I think she has influenced you a little bit.
ReplyDeleteGreetje and I are friends and sometimes we influence each other. Her style also inspired me to wear more colourful outfits ...
DeleteP.s.
DeleteIf you like, you can comment in Italian and I will answer using my native language
You are doing absolutely fine, Dan, and one can only improve by practicing, which you do. English isn't my native language either, and I keep learning with every post. I love your terrace, and how you pulled that look together with the pencil skirt and the leggings, which I'd never have thought of. I don't often wear a pencil skirt, although I have a couple of them, as part of a suit. xxx
ReplyDeleteSo right! I have been studying English for years but I think that only practice can improve it now . Little by little...
DeleteI think your English is amazing Dan---you don't see me conversing in Italian??!! Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love how you're wearing your leggings here!!

I have to check and double check my English texts in order to minimise mistakes so...many thanks, Jodie!
DeleteOh Dan, my English is far from perfect, worse than yours! Ha ha. I love to wear leggings, in fact I write them today under a skirt. Because it was so cold today here. I think this look is very nice. The leggings are perfect under your pencil skirt!
ReplyDeleteYour English is not bad at all, Nancy! We just need to keep on practicing it ...
DeleteLove the whole ensemble Dan! I think your english is great and it is fun to try to know what a word means in different languages!
ReplyDeleteI love how you layered this outfit and love each piece-- especially the purple -plum bag, love the texture and color.
You look wonderful, I feel you smile!!

I am very interested in languages...they are ways to represent the world from different points of view !
DeleteI agree with the others who say your English is very good! I can't speak a stitch of Italian, so you are way ahead of me.
ReplyDeleteI like the outfit, it's fun and comfortable. Your flowers are beautiful too!
Learning a new language is fun but it takes me a lot of energies!! :-)
DeleteI can understand you perfectly. And as I make many mistakes myself, who am I to judge?
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is clever (warm legs) and unique (in a good way). You have added interest to the outfit with the patterned leggings. And no, I have never worn leggings with a pencil skirt
Lovely little bag by the way.
I see that you have put plants everywhere, from your front door to the stairs. Why not indeed.

Your capacity to learn new languages is extraordinary ! I wouldn't be surprised to hear you speaking in a perfect Italian in the future ... :-)
DeleteI am becoming a good gardener!
Learning Italian is on my bucket list. When I don't have to work any ore, I want to really study it properly.
DeleteI never realised that English was not your first language - you are so good!
ReplyDeleteI love the colour of your outfit and have never tried leggings with a pencil skirt.
Really??? Then I am doing a good job with my English!!
Delete( hurray! )
Your English is really good! It's great you can expand on it through your blog too :)
ReplyDeleteI've never worn leggings and a pencil skirt together before but you wear it well and it's a cheerful way to add a print to your outfit :)
Hope you're having a wonderful weekend.
Away From The Blue Blog
Blogging is a good way to improve a language and a it's a fantastic way to get acquainted with new friends too ...
DeleteHave a good rest of the week, Mica!
Love the leggings with this, whilst you converse in perfect English. An inspiring look that's practical but stylish.
ReplyDeleteLeggings are comfortable in the transition seasons and look modern ...
DeleteI really like this outfit, Dan! Leggings are sort of my signature look, and I often wear them with skirts and dresses.
ReplyDeleteI remember many of your outfits with leggings ... very nice!
DeleteYour outfit is so perfect, Dan!!
ReplyDeleteThose leggings with beautiful patterns and cool belts!
Your English is better then me, and I want to write English like you :))
