{Finally ... back!}

Hello ladies, good morning, good monday good back to work!

I've so many pics to show you about my holidays, just give me the time to prepare it and I'll post everything for you!
I had a very relaxing summer, read a lot of books, swim a lot, visit antiques market and beautiful little villages (next posts will be about it). I still have another week and I'm going back to the sea. It's just 2 days I'm in the city and I'm feeling already sad and blue! But I have lots of ideas and projects to think about, I only need to find the way on how to start!

Autumn is at the door and new collections are in the shops... I love Hoss Intropia and I was waiting for the new collection.


What I love the most are their dresses, feminine and unique. Fantastic fabrics, elegant pattern and soft shapes.

They have large men's pants to wear with high heels, cardigans or little jacket...


Love the coats...


and all the accessories...



The testimonial for the winter collection is the lovely beautiful Elettra Rossellini Wiedemann the daughter of Italian actress Isabella Rossellini. Her maternal grandparents were Ingrid Bergman and Roberto Rossellini. Whit such a background...

During her time at college, she began a modeling career. Her first contract was for Bruce Weber for Abercrombi & Fitch. In addition, she has also modeled for bill Blass and Ferragamo and for the fashion magazines Vogue and Harper's Bazaar and many more. In 2006, Elettra was named the face of Lancome, representing the global brand in print advertisements for skincare.


Elettra is also a co-founder of justonefrickinday.com, a non-profit organization for special charity projects around the world.

She is beautiful and particularly committed to good causes...she's perfect!

I really wish you a fantastic monday!!!

{Getting a Tattoo}

Today was the day! Mr B. had an appointment to get his new tatto. It wasn't the first one. He has a lot of tattos everywhere, arms, chest, leg... He decided that it was time for a new one.

We went to Pepe & Zuno Tattoos store and he decided to made a Gipsy in a perfect American Old Style. He found the image he wanted and he brang it to Pepe.





First the tattooer made the stencil...


then he began to draw...

It tooks almost 2 hours with some breaks in the meanwhile, just the time for Mr B. to take a breath and a bear for Pepe...

works in progress...
some blush and eye liner...


red lipstick...

et voilà...

How beautiful is it? I really love it, the eyes, the writing...

Then I decided to ask for an appointment to get a tattoo. Pepe said that if I wanted I could do it right away...a bit of hesitation, I thought about it for a minute then I said "yes". For me neither wasn't the first one. This is my fifth.

I went for an english style Swallow (the second one, I have it already on my right foot)...
he didn't used a stencyyl. He drawn it with a pen directly on my left wrist.





Terrific pain!

and that's the result.

Do you have any tattos?

good night ladies!

{Bikes}

Hi ladies, how are you? where are you?




I'm in love with bikes. I have my new old bike and I don't need nothing else. I like to ride her, she makes me feel free and she always reminds me to my holidays and Tuscany.



The old style are my favourites as well the american bikes, the one without the brakes. I'd like to have a pink bike , I would be the "Pink lady with the pink Bike".


Isn't it amazing and useful? The basket is very big and it can contains a lot of shopping bags!


Do you have a bike? what colors is it? Do you use it just on the weekend and free time or everyday?

Love and God night

{Something old, something new }

Pale & Interesting, an online boutique store, is the creation of husband and wife team, Atlanta Bartlett and Dave Coote a famous and successful couple. They worked, toghether and individually, in the magazine, photography and design industries for the last years and the produced books, interiors, furniture, products, sets, magazines features and cabins...


Inside the site you will find furniture, accessories, jewellery and books all chosen or designed by Atlanta and Dave.



Their philosophy is all about mixing it up, teaming old with new, contrasting rough with smooth and pairing femininity with utility. It's a combination of hand-made and vintage finds, artfully-recycled objects with good functional design and comfort with touches of frivolity.


I love their style: simple but not minimalist. Their objects are made to be used and not only admired.



I think you should visit Pale & Interesting they have so many interesting and unique things! And take a look at the Look Book: they reveal some of their secrets!

HOW ARE YOU DOING GIRLS?

{Summertime}

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high....

I'm packing 'cause I'm leaving with my boyfriend to my summer house in Tuscany and we will stay there for the next three weeks. My family (mom, brother with girlfriend, brother, granny...) is already there. The house is complete, no "zimmer frei". I'd love to have some others rooms for friends that I'd like to invite but we are a big family!

I'm hoping to do a short trip but I still do not have any plans. Maybe a road trip to France or to catch a last minute flight ... who knows.

It's always very diffcult do prepare luggages. I begin with few things and then I add a dress, a shoe, another dress, underwears, swimsuit, sandals, shorts and shirts, bags, 2 beauty-cases, books, my pc, my camera, all the battery charger, my ipod... I

I know that I'm a bit exagerated but, first of all, I'm a woman so it's normal to have more than a luggage (or not??) then I like to have all my things around me when I'm not travelling around the world!

In my imaginary (luckily it's still possible to use imagination to travel around the world!!!), my perfect summer would be to rent this house in Provence with some friends.

We would spend time visiting nice little vintages and looking for antiques and brocante...

Then a jump in the pool before dinner...


We would eat out and stay there till late talking and laughing...

Then I'll fly to Paros for the last 2 weeks of August , just in time to enjoy the last days of Summer and "charge the batteries" before to begin a new season in the city back at work and at the daily routine but with something new on my mind!




I have a very big immagination...I know! But wouldn't be a great summer?
Which are your immaginary plans? And the real plans? write me what are you going to do in the next days, I'm so curious!

I'll come to visit you, maybe not daily, but I will. I canno't miss any of your beautiful and inspiring posts and I'll continue to update my blog .

My dear friends, my ladies, I'll be back to you all very soon, I'll write you and I'll visit you...

I wish you a terrific summer!

Love you!
