Last news...



A sunny day in the city and I noticed a new Liberty house...


...as I like that style, I took some photos...

Max&co. - Alberta Ferretti


it was the perfect day to wear my light blue top and grey pencil skirt

Fratelli Rossetti

it was the perfect day also  to wear my best pumps!


And before leaving...can you remember the scrapbook that I bought last week?

Miu Miu-Hogan

...I have just drawn my first sketch!

Something to do


Is there a Muji  shop where you live?  For those of you who don't know, Muji is a Japanese brand and I first discovered it in London. It has several shops in the biggest cities of Europe ( I don't know if there are shops in the other continents ) and recently opened a two flore store  in  Torino


I like the items they sell because  have a minimalistic style. 


Besides, I needed a new scrapebook for my sketches and they have very plain ones which I love.
After I bought it, I crossed the centre to go to a nice small square


where you can quietly sip one of the best cappuccino of Torino ( I never go home without a cappuccino-break! )


and connect your device to a wifi...


...by the way, have you noticed my pale yellow dress ( Twin-set ) ? As I found it was too short for a lady of about 50, I sewed a a  strip of silk fabric at the botton!  That is what I call...to personalize a dress!!

About flowers...



When I started blogging, more than a year ago, my idea was to share beauty of little things that often go unnoticed...


Than, my first purpose changed a little, and I am realizing that, all my posts are recently been dedicated to my outfits...


Today I want to share the beauty of flowers and plants in a city!


And flowers on clothes...


Isn't this Dolce and Gabbana bathing suit delightful?
I love its elegant look...to say nothing of the lovable bag!!


But, what about me today? 
Well, last week I bought a pair of vintage earring in a flea market...
They have the shape of beautiful white flowers ( are they supposed to be roses?)


I find them sooo nice!
I hope you like this post. It's very me!

Mix & match



Today I am wearing clothes that have already posted..


but now I  have mixed it in a different way!


The only news are about the last stone necklace which I have made!
( to be precise they are three, tied together with a thin black  ribbon )


We are having a very spring weather, with warm and cold days...
the perfect weather for my cream colour jacket and a pair of slim fit pants, which fabric has a nice tie-pattern


I find spring is also the right season to wear a shirt, and in fact I generally use it just in this season ( or somethimes in Autumn )


because too cold or hot makes it unconfortable for me to wear one.


I bought this blue one in London years ago, but it was a good purchase and I still like it


that proves, as the dear Greetje of No fear of Fashion  said, clothes are not to be worn just once! ( if I can remember well! )

New hairstyle in a sunny day ( with a touch of orange...)



We had a very rainy weather for Easter, so, when we saw on the weather forecast that a couple of sunny days were approaching, we got into the car and went to the seaside. When we were there, I first went  to my favourite hairdresser ( I have more than just one hairdresser!) for a trim 


I am not too brave at the hairdresser's, so I didn't ask  a drastic cut


A better look, isn't it?


The mild temperature invited me to take  a walk ...


While I was around, in a joyful mood, I noticed this nice painting on a wall, which reminded me a beautiful nasturzio flower I had seen nearby


in the same orange colour of a beautiful nasturzio flower I had seen nearby 


and also the colour of the boat on the beach


It was a pleasant "orange" day, I wish you had a nice day too...

Like a tourist...


Ilary-Prada


There is something unpleasant in taking photos in a small city...people find it unusual!


I generally don't care too much, but for this post I went  to Torino to snap some pictures ( also to have a little change )


In the past, ( not many years ago ), Torino has always been only the city of Fiat and many activivities were related to that industry...


...then came the Olimpic Winter Games of 2006, and it was the start of the tourism


Today it's quite common to see people taking photos or going around with city maps...


...so no one  realized I was a false tourist and I could snap without being noticed...my mission was accomplished!!    ;-)



P.s.
 if you celebrate it...best wishes for a wonderful Easter!

Without tights!


Great day today! It is the first time this year I go out without tights!! 


The fact is that I find them soooo unconfortable...


...and, as soon as I can, I take out of my closet a pair of sandals!


When I was looking for them, the other day, I decided it was also the time for my blue and white cotton little jacket


Which I am wearing here with a pair of blue pants


We are having very hot days recently, and the flowers are blooming everywhere


so I am explaining  to the old Bangio he should be quickly changing his hair! ( as he is still wearing his winter  fur ) 


while he patiently is waiting his turn to have a photo...dear, sweet friend!!
