When the holidays are over and you are about to start working again you probably are not in your best mood, right?
What to do then to improve it?
Well, in my opinion a new pair of shoes can always help to cross the blues
:-)
As well as a visit to a nearby city for the Pepper Festival ..
So, off we went!
In the city there was also an exhibition of old cars
( here I posed next to a "Topolino" Fiat car which I think is so cute!)
Being the surroundings known for the quality peppers which are there cultivated, cars had been decorated with the vegetables )
And shop windows too.
There was an open air market with regional products where I bought canape bread, some bakery goods, a pistachio sauche for dressing pasta, and a bottle of extra virgin olive oil from Rieti.
Of course I couldn't miss to buy some peppers too!
Oh, yes! I think there will probably be some cooking in my future ...
You look so classy. xx
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteA nice and elegant look. The skirt, I love it! Nice photos.
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is by Falconeri. One of my last purchases...
DeleteAnd the possibilities are endless with these fabulous peppers, Dan!!

I am not very good at cooking but I guess they would be good roasted in my microwaves...very quick and easy to make!!
DeleteGreat shoes! You are so right - a great pair of shoes makes (almost) everything better! The pepper festival sounds like fun! What great cars!

At the end of Summer yoo can visit festivals of any kind here:most of them celebrate local products...the weather is generally sunny in September and October and it's nice spend some more time in the open air!
DeleteDan, those elegant shoes certainly would cheer you up. The festival certainly is colourful with all the different varieties of peppers and of course the older cars. Hope your return to work hasn't been too stressful.
ReplyDeleteNot easy after a long time off, of course I like my job but hate waking up with the sound of alarm clock... :-(
DeleteIt is always nice to visit a local event. Lots of people looking as well. But cooking??? You just made me laugh. Anyway.. your outfit is terrific as always. So stylish, so sophisticated. Love it. And the bag and shoes too. Really what a beauties. What are the brands of all the stuff you have on?

Well, to be precise, when I said cooking...I was thinking about putting the peppers in my microwaves and then dressing with olive oil and lemon! :-)
DeleteAbout my outfit: the skirt and top are Falconeri. The brand is a bit expensive but at the end of season their prices are 50% off
The bag is Max Mara ( bought a couple of weeks ago ) and the shoes are from a small shop in Turin ( Narese ) which produces its own shoes...the leather is soft and, as the heel is only 6cm high, they are really comfortable!
I have been to a small shop in Turin who made their own shoes remember? I bought blue patent leather slingbacks in the sale. Was that the same shop? I thought they were going out of business.
DeleteGreetje
The shop where you bought the blue shoes went out of business as you said.
DeleteMy shoes are from another small shop which also sells its own brand (Narese)
I eat a lot of peppers, also raw. Your hair is shorter! Looks good Dan!
ReplyDeleteI am glad to read that you like my new hairstyle ... Shorter hair was more comfortable when I was on holidays!
DeleteThis post oozes class, your outfit,
ReplyDelete(gorgeous skirt and shoes) the vintage cars and the location. Love your new haircut too. Xx
With high temperatures hort hair is surely more comfortable, but I find it a bit more complicated to style it at home!!!
DeleteI've just returned from a week's holiday, so reading this post couldn't be more timely. Unfortunately there's no Pepper Festival I can visit to chase away the post-holiday blues! Love your stylish outfit, as always. How lovely is that car with the flowers and peppers? OK, I think I'm off now to buy a new pair of shoes ;-) xxx
ReplyDeleteha ha... I wish you find a pair of fab shoes which can help the mood!! :-)
DeleteYour new shoes are so chic, Dan!
ReplyDeleteI agree you, shoes make us happy <3
Those regional products look so yummy.
Your product's selection is super beautiful!!
