deer print sweater, Miu Miu boots, Prada bag

Dear readers and followers of this blog, first of all let me wish you all a very Merry Christmas ! I wish I could message each and one of you to wish you all the best, so I am taking advantage of a blog post to do it. I wish you a Christmas of happiness, joy and hope !.
Today has been a pretty sunny day here and in the early afternoon I went out to complete some last minute shopping wearing this warm and cozy outfit. I was wearing a deer print sweater I got from Sheinside, it's the classical winter sweater with a modern twist that was so much fun to wear and put me in a Christmas mood !.


Cari lettori e follower di questo blog, vorrei innanzitutto augurarvi Buon Natale ! Vorrei poter inviare un messaggio ad ognuno di voi per farvi i miei auguri, così approfitto di un post per farlo. Vi auguro un Natale di felicità, gioia e speranza !.
Oggi è stata una giornata soleggiata e nel primo pomeriggio sono uscita a completare alcuni acquisti dell'ultimo minuto indossando questo outfit comodo e caldo. Ho sfoggiato il maglione con gli alci preso da Sheinside, il classico maglione invernale rivisitato in chiave più moderna, un capo molto simpatico che mi ha messa dell'umore giusto per Natale !.

I have decided to pair my oversize sweater with some skinny jeans from Cheap Monday and my latest boots purchase, a pair of suede Miu Miu boots ! They are so comfy and the burgundy color is beautiful. You can see the boots better in the pic below !.
I have to confess I bought them whilst looking for Christmas presents...in these past days everytime I went out for Christmas shopping I ended up coming back home also with purchases for myself, how bad am I ? :-).


Ho deciso di abbinare al mio maglione oversize dei jeans skinny di Cheap Monday e ho indossato il mio ultimo acquisto, un paio di stivali in suede di Miu Miu di un bel colore bordeaux, comodissimi. Potete guardarli meglio nella foto sottostante !.
Confesso di averli comprati mentre cercavo dei regali di Natale...in questi giorni ogni volta che sono uscita per gli acquisti di Natale sono tornata a casa anche con acquisti per me stessa, sono incorreggibile :-P.

A hat, a scarf and a pair of gloves are not just something I need when it's cold outside, but accessories I love to wear ! I decided to wear my Gucci grey maxi scarf and as a hat I went for a no brand black wool beret. I added some color with burgundy gloves and my beloved Prada tote. I think this outfit is perfect for Christmas Eve with family and friends, what do you think ?. I think with this outfit I would also make a good Santa helper, LOL !.

Un cappello, la sciarpa e un paio di guanti non sono solo necessari per il freddo, sono anche accessori che amo indossare ! Ho scelto di abbinare la maxi sciarpa grigia di Gucci e come cappello ho optato per un basco nero in lana, no brand. Ho aggiunto colore con i guanti in lana burgundy e la mia adorata borsa color ciliegia di Prada. Credo questo sia un outfit perfetto per una vigilia di Natale con amici e parenti, che ne pensate ?. Io credo anche che, vestita così, potrei essere una ottima aiutante per Babbo Natale !.

I paired this striped skirt with a black turtleneck and a black blazer from Carla G. and I added some fun with a statement necklace and a statement bracelet from Zara.

Ho abbinato la gonna a strisce con una maglia a collo alto nera ed un blazer dal collo "frastagliato" di Carla G, aggiungendo un po' di colore con una collana e un bracciale particolari di Zara.

The central part of this outfit are no doubt my boots, I love them so much because they have this '60 vibe, for their shape and mirror heels, they have high heels that are comfy enough and their leather is very soft. You are going to see me wearing them often, absolutely !. You can see them better in the pic below. I am a sucker for soft black leather items...in fact my latest bag purchase is a black and roomy bag, I am gonna show it to you soon ! Are you getting ready for New Year's eve ? We're going to the mountains for a few days, mostly to relax and I can't wait !. How are you gonna spend New Year's eve ?.

La parte centrale di questo outfit sono senza dubbio i miei stivali, li adoro perché hanno un'aria anni '60 grazie alla loro forma ed al tacco a specchio interno, sono alti ma sono comodi e di un pellame molto morbido. Me li vedrete indosso molto spesso, sicuramente !. Potete vederli meglio nella foto sottostante. Ho un debole per i capi in morbida pelle nera...infatti anche il mio ultimo acquisto in fatto di borse è una borsa spaziosa e nera, ve la mostrerò presto ! Intanto, siete pronti per l'ultimo dell'anno ? Noi andremo in montagna per qualche giorno, più che altro per rilassarci e non vedo l'ora !. Voi come trascorrerete il Capodanno ?.

New Year: resolutions and...Sheinside giveaway winner !

New Year is almost here, only a few hours are left and first of all I wanna send all of you my warmest wishes for a wonderful 2013 ! I am on the mountains and I have limited time to the computer so I cannot leave all the comments I would want to leave on your blogs. Have a happy New Year and thanks for being here during this Year :-).
As a New Year is approaching, it's time again to do some serious new year resolutions. When you are a blogger it's even better because by telling your readers about them, they seem more real and serious, at least I think so !. Here there are my resolutions for 2013.

AT WORK: LEARN TO SAY NO AND LEARN NOT TO BE TOO AFFECTED BY WHAT HAPPENS

I must try to be less sensitive over other people's behaviours. I love my job and I take it very seriously, sometimes even too much, I need to stand up more for my rights without overthinking too much about the things. I have to learn that what happens at work needs to stay at work, because when I am home I am in another environment and I deserve to relax.
I am a hard worker and very often I take more tasks than I should, and instead of feeling better afterwards, when things go unnoticed, I feel miserable. I need to learn to schedule my work better and to realize I can say "no" when I have to, without feeling guilty..

BLOGGING RESOLUTIONS:

Blogging to me is a passion and a fun thing to do, it is not and it doesn't have to become an obsession. I wanna keep it that way and in 2013, I wanna network more with other bloggers I like, and also help my blog have a better quality content. I think there are new blogs everyday and what is important is the passion we put in it, which can't be seen by the quantity of posts or followers, it's something different.

IN MY PRIVATE LIFE: MORE SLEEP AND A BETTER WAY TO SHOP.

I definately need more sleep. I usually go to sleep after 1 am, and that's not enough during the week, especially cause my alarm clock goes on at 7 am. I need to restore my 8 hours of sleep, absolutely ! I made this resolution already in 2012 and I have to confess my sleeping habits got even worse. Very often, I do not have time to be on the pc during the day, because of work/gym/going out, so I make up during the night. I am a night owl blogger !.

I am a compulsive shopper and I tend to pamper myself with new purchases. I am definately not a saver. In 2013, I can't promise to become a responsible lady, but I must try to focus on purchasing statement pieces, instead of spending money over anything I like, without thinking twice. I realized I spent more money in small and unuseful things, in the end, if you sum it up. I think about it very well when I have to buy myself an expensive designer bag, yet I splurge in make up I don't need, everytime I go into Zara I end up buying way too many things and so on. I wanna be a better shopper, more quality, less quantity ! This also has to do with improving my personal style.


These are my resolutions for 2013. If I go back reading my resolutions I made one year ago, I have accomplished most of them, because I have been going to the gym and also been eating better and less. I only didn't make it for the more sleep part, but I hope I can make it in 2013 !. Tell me now about your own resolutions and also if you feel you achieved some of your previous year resolution this year !.



Il Nuovo Anno è quasi arrivato, mancano poche ore ormai e prima di tutto vorrei farvi i miei migliori auguri per un 2013 strepitoso ! Mi trovo in Alto Adige e non ho la possibilità di trascorrere tanto tempo al pc per potervi lasciare tutti i commenti che vorrei sui vostri blog, pertanto vi lascio i miei auguri quì. Buon Anno Nuovo e grazie per essere stati con me in questo 2012 :-).
Come ogni anno, è tempo di fare seriamente dei buoni propositi per l'anno nuovo. Quando si è una blogger la cosa si fa ancora più solenne perché si condividono i propri propositi con gli altri, per cui è come se gli impegni fossero più seri, o almeno mi piace pensarlo !. Eccovi, dunque, alcuni dei propositi per il 2013.

AL LAVORO: IMPARARE A DIRE NO E A NON LASCIARMI TOCCARE TROPPO DA QUANTO ACCADE

Devo cercare di essere meno sensibile e affetta dai comportamenti altrui.Amo il mio lavoro e lo prendo fin troppo seriamente, nel senso che se qualcuno non si comporta in modo corretto io non riesco a non pensarci. Devo far presente di più i miei diritti senza lasciarmi influenzare troppo dagli avvenimenti. Ho bisogno di imparare che ciò che accade al lavoro deve rimanere al lavoro, nel senso che una volta a casa sono in un altro ambiente e merito di rilassarmi.
Spesso mi ritrovo a lavorare più di quanto mi spetti fare e, quando ciò che faccio non viene preso nella giusta considerazione, ci sto male. Devo pianificare meglio il mio lavoro e imparare anche a dire "no" quando devo, senza sentirmi in colpa per questo.

SUL BLOG:

Io bloggo per passione e per divertimento, non è e non deve diventare un'ossessione. Voglio continuare in questo senso anche nel 2013 e vorrei collaborare con altre blogger e far sì che la qualità dei miei post aumenti. Si aprono nuovi blog ogni giorno e ciò che importa è la passione che ci mettiamo, che non si può vedere né da quanti post facciamo né da quanti followers abbiamo, è qualcosa di completamente diverso.

VITA PRIVATA: PIU' ORE DI SONNO E SHOPPING DI QUALITA'.

Ho bisogno di più sonno. Solitamente vado a dormire dopo l'una di notte e non ho abbastanza ore di sonno durante la settimana, specialmente con la sveglia che suona alle 7 ! Ho bisogno di ritornare alle mie otto ore di sonno, assolutamente ! Ho fatto questo proposito già l'anno scorso per il 2012 e devo confessare che le mie abitudini, per il sonno, sono ulteriormente peggiorate. Spesso poi, non avendo tempo per il pc durante il giorno, per lavoro/palestra/uscite, cerco di recuperare durante la notte...sono una blogger gufetta !.

Sono una compratrice compulsiva e tendo a consolarmi con una bella sessione di shopping. Non sono di certo una risparmiatrice. Nel 2013, non mi sento addirittura di essere una donna responsabile, ma vorrei focalizzarmi sull'acquisto di pezzi "importanti", invece di spendere a casaccio senza un perché e senza pensarci due volte. Ho capito che spendo di più in articoli innocui, se alla fine sommo il loro costo. Ci penso bene prima di comprare una borsa costosa, invece spendo e spando in trucchi che non mi servono, ogni volta che entro da Zara ne esco con più cose e così via. Voglio essere un'acquirente migliore, meno quantità ma più qualità !. Ovviamente, questo vuol dire anche lavorare sul trovare il proprio stile personale.


Questi sono i miei propositi per il 2013. Se torno indietro a leggere quelli fatti un anno fa, ne ho seguito parecchi, ad esempio sono andata in palestra e ho mangiato meno e meglio. Non ce l'ho fatta con il sonno ma spero di farcela nel 2013 !. Ora vorrei conoscere i vostri propositi e anche se vi sentite di averne realizzati alcuni dei vecchi nel 2012 !.

Are you all back to your everyday life or are you still enjoying some holiday time ? I am back home after a few days on the mountains where all we did was relax, eat (too much) and have a good time !.
I had less time to spend on the internet and I needed a little break, now it's finally time for a new outfit post, the first new outfit of 2013, introducing my newest bag: the Givenchy Pandora bag !.


Siete tornati tutti alla vita di tutti i giorni o state ancora godendovi qualche giorno di vacanza ? Io sono tornata a casa dopo qualche giorno in montagna dove tutto ciò che ho fatto è stato rilassarmi, mangiare (troppo) e divertirmi !.
Ho avuto meno tempo da trascorrere online e avevo bisogno di una piccola pausa, ora è finalmente tempo di un nuovo outfit, il primo del 2013, e di presentarvi la mia nuova borsa: la Pandora di Givenchy !.

Choosing a new bag is such a personal thing for a woman...I knew I wanted to buy myself a present for Christmas and it had to be a new bag, and I didn't have the Pandora on my mind, but then I tried it on and fell in love with its unique shape, not surely an easy bag to pull off for everyone but when it was on my shoulder I felt it was "mine".
It's also a very pratical bag that can be worn in different ways, it has one handle, a shoulder strap and the shape changes completely when it's filled up, and the leather feels so soft !.
I am definately proud to have this bag in my bags collection and I am already addicted to it, I can fill it with so many things and you will surely see it in many outfits !.


Scegliere una nuova nuova borsa è sempre una cosa molto personale per ogni donna...io sapevo di volermi comprare un bel regalo di Natale e doveva essere una borsa di design, ma non avevo in mente la Pandora, poi l'ho provata e mi sono innamorata della sua forma unica e originale, non è una borsa facile da portare per chiunque ma quando l'ho vista su di me l'ho sentita "mia". Inoltre, si tratta di una borsa molto pratica che può essere portata in vari modi, ha sia un manico che una tracolla e la sua forma cambia completamente quando è riempita, inoltre è di una pelle morbidissima !.
Sono decisamente orgogliosa di avere questa borsa nella mia collezione e ne sono già dipendente, ci entrano così tante cose e la vedrete di sicuro in molti outfit !.

In these pics I am wearing a wool dress from Diesel crafted from brushed mohair, with an asymmetric fringe trim.
The bi-color ankle boots are from Fabi. I went for green colored tights that are matching the shoes color.
On my nails, I am wearing my beloved Peridot from Chanel, I still love wearing it from time to time, it's definately one of my fave Chanel nail polishes ever !.


In queste foto indosso un abito in lana mohair con frangia asimmetrica di Diesel.
Gli stivaletti bicolori sono di Fabi. Ho scelto delle calze colorate dello stesso verde delle scarpe.
Sulle unghie, il Peridot di Chanel, amo ancora portarlo ogni tanto, sicuramente è uno degli smalti Chanel che preferisco !.

This weekend is gonna be dedicated to sales and even tho I am not usually a sales person, just because I tend to buy what I can afford when I see it instead of waiting, I am sure I am gonna buy something...more than ever after a few days spent in a place with a few shops and strict opening times !. As soon as I got back home, I already got myself a lovely Parka today, before the official sales start, and I am all happy about it !. What are you gonna look for ? Anyway, good luck everyone !.

Questo weekend iniziano le svendite e sebbene io non sia una persona che attende i saldi per comprare, in quanto se ce la faccio compro subito in modo compulsivo, so già che comprerò qualcosa...ancora di più dopo aver trascorso qualche giorno in una località con pochi negozi e orari di apertura ridotti ! Appena rientrata alla base, infatti, ho già preso un delizioso Parka, ancora prima dell'inizio ufficiale, e ne sono felice !. Voi cosa cercherete ? In ogni caso, buona fortuna !.

Trendy and warm: my Parka jacket !

Parka jacket, Campo V Parka, Prada bag

Some of you will surely remember my green Christmas wishlist.
Well, I am happy because I succeeded in having a few green items I really wanted, especially the trendiest winter coat of the moment: a Parka jacket !.
I've been obsessing over getting a warm Parka, an iconic jacket that would be stylish and comfortable at the same time, and finally I found it. What do you think about it ?.
This jacket is from a brand called Campo V and their Parka is called Sherpa 1953, it's been inspired by the great accomplishment happened on May 29th, 1953, when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay reached the summit of Mount Everest, 29.028 feet above sea level, the highest spot on earth !.


Alcuni di voi avranno letto la mia wishlist verde di Natale.
Beh, sono felice perché sono riuscita a fare miei alcuni articoli "verdi" che volevo molto, specialmente il giaccone invernale più trendy del momento: il Parka !.
Continuavo a pensarci, dovevo assolutamente trovare un Parka che fosse caldo, stiloso e confortevole allo stesso tempo e l'ho finalmente trovato. Che ne pensate ?.
Il Parka è del brand Campo V, si chiama Sherpa 1953 ed è stato ispirato dalla grande impresa di Sir Edmund Hillary che, con Tenzing Norgay, il 29 maggio del 1953 raggiunse la cima del Monte Everest, a 29.028 piedi sul livello del mare, il punto più alto della terra !.

Another new entry in green is the bag you see, a green leather Prada duffle, a very special present I got that I love so much !. You can see it better in the pic below.
I matched the bag with brown Arfango ankle boots that have been waiting in my shoe closet for a long time.
This time I opted for a casual look, but I've seen the trend is wearing the Parka also with more elegant outfits, I am gonna try this for sure !.


Un'altra new entry in verde è la borsa che vedete, un bauletto in pelle martellata, un regalo speciale che mi piace tantissimo !. Potete vederla meglio nella foto sottostante.
Ho abbinato la borsa a stivaletti marroni di Arfango che attendevano di uscire con me da un bel po' di tempo.
Per questa volta ho scelto un abbinamento casual ma il trend del momento è abbinare il Parka anche ad indumenti più eleganti, proverò senz'altro anche questa versione !.

The sweater I am wearing underneath my Parka is from Northland and has loads of colors, as well as being pretty warm.
The Missoni scarf is quite an old purchase. Since I have my walk in closet I find things much more easily and I am so pleased with that !.


Il maglione che indossavo sotto al Parka è di Northland ed ha tanti colori vivaci oltre ad essere piuttosto caldo.
La sciarpa di Missoni è un acquisto abbastanza datato, l'ho ritrovata facilmente grazie alla cabina armadio, da quando l'ho organizzata trovare le cose è molto più facile e ne sono felice !.

When the air got more fresh, I was ready to wear a burgundy beanie. I have to confess I always have a beanie inside my bag when it's winter. I like to feel warm and also to get ready when the weather is humid !.
This bonnet is from Scotch and Soda, same brand as Maison Scotch and I have decided to buy it for myself even tho I found it under the male side, cause beanie hats are just a unisex item !.
Dressed this way I feel ready to live an adventure, not on Mount Everest but in a few shops, for sales hunting ! I think it requires strenght and courage, anyway, don't you ? :-P.


Quando l'aria si è fatta più fresca, ecco comparire un cappellino a cuffia bordeaux. Confesso di avere sempre un cappellino di questo genere in borsa, in inverno. Sono freddolosa e inoltre mi piace essere pronta ad ogni evenienza, incluso il tempo umido !.
Questo cappellino è di Scotch & Soda, stesso brand di Maison Scotch, e ho deciso di prenderlo per me sebbene trovato nel reparto uomo perché questo tipo di cappelli sono decisamente unisex !.
Vestita così mi sento pronta per un'avventura, non sul Monte Everest ma nei negozi per un po' di caccia ai saldi ! Credo che sia un'impresa che richieda forza e coraggio comunque, non credete anche voi ? ;-P.

A mini skirt and a little gothic touch

black and white outfit, Maison Scotch miniskirt, Givenchy bag, Scooter Plus sweater, Fashion and Cookies

It's time for a new outfit post, in (a lot of) black and (a bit of) white ! I always feel at ease with wearing black and I have to say I am never tired to wearing black outfits.
This look has a gothic or even a vampire touch, with this dark lipstick, fingerless gloves with a skull head and my new leather Givenchy Pandora bag you had already seen. Maybe it depends on my latest obsession with True Blood tv serie ? I've been watching all the episodes in a short time...if you are a fan, too, just let me know ! (I am "team Eric", by the way !) ;).


E' tempo di mostrarvi un nuovo outfit, in (poco) bianco e (molto) nero ! Mi sento sempre a mio agio con il nero, non ci sono dubbi, non mi stanca mai.
Questo look ha un che di gotico e di vampiresco a mio avviso, vuoi per il rossetto scuro, i guantini senza dita con i teschi e la borsa in pelle nera (la Pandora di Givenchy che avevate già visto). Forse dipende tutto dalla mia recente ossessione per la serie tv True Blood ? Ne ho visti tutti gli episodi in un breve lasso di tempo...fatemi sapere se ne siete fan anche voi ! (comunque, io sono "team Eric" !) ;).

Lately I've been wearing miniskirts more often than ever. I always wear them with opaque heavy tights, just because I prefer that way, it's comfier and also it keeps my legs warm !.
This skirt is from Maison Scotch, I think I already told you I adore this brand !. I matched it with a black and white paisley print sweater from Scooter Plus. The black jacket is from Carla G.


Ultimamente sto indossando minigonne abbastanza spesso, sempre con calze rigorosamente dai 50 denari in su, preferisco così sia per comodità che per...il loro calore !. Questa mini è di Maison Scotch, vi avevo già detto che adoro questo brand ?. Ho abbinato la gonna ad un pull a collo alto a stampa paisley bianca e nera, di Scooter Plus. La giacca nera è di Carla G.

The fingerless gloves with a skull head are just a fun accessory, actually not too comfy cause they tend to slide and cover my fingers ! I was proudly wearing my limited edition bottle of Dior Diorific Varnis nail polish, a black with golden/fuchsia/bronze sparkles color called "Diva".
You can see a better pic of gloves and details of the bag underneath.


I guantini senza dita con teschio borchiato sono stati più che altro un accessorio divertente, in realtà non sono tanto comodi perché tendono a scendere sulle dita ! Lo smalto che porto nelle foto è l'edizione limitata dello smalto Dior Diorific Varnis, un nero con pagliuzze dorate/fucsia/bronzo quasi impercettibili, chiamato "Diva".
Potete vedere una foto dei guantini e dettagli della borsa nella foto sottostante.

The black suede and leather boots are one the comfiest pair I own. I bought them about month ago and I love them !. I always succeed in finding something I "really need"...as a vampire I am a failure, I am only good at draining my bank account, LOL !.

Gli stivali neri in camoscio e pelle sono tra i più comodi che ho, comprati circa un mese fa, li amo !. Riesco sempre a trovare un paio di scarpe che mi "serve proprio"...come vampira sono un fallimento, riesco solo a prosciugare...il mio conto in banca, ihihih ! :-).

My bag wishlist is truly infinite and it keeps growing. As a true bagaholic, I think I have found the perfect dress ! This dress featuring handbags is hand painted and, therefore, unique...when I saw it in a lovely concept store, I couldn't leave without it !.

La mia wishlist in fatto di borse è veramente infinita e continua a crescere. Da appassionata di borse, credo di aver trovato l'abito perfetto ! Questo vestito aderente raffigurante tante borse è dipinto a mano ed è un pezzo unico...quando l'ho adocchiato in un adorabile concept store, non ho potuto lasciarlo lì !.

I wore the dress with a crossbody Hoss Intropia leather bag (see it better in the pic underneath).
At my feet, I had a pair of high stiletto pumps from Cesare Paciotti. The heels are metallic and I think it could be classified as weapon :-).
After all, 99% of my Paciotti shoes are stilettoes...and in this past year my collection kept growing. One of the good things about this brand is that you can actually walk in those shoes without feeling an escruciating pain in your feet !.


Ho indossato questo abito con una tracollina di Hoss Intropia in pelle e cavallino (si vede meglio nella foto sottostante).
Ai piedi, portavo un paio di pumps di Cesare Paciotti dal tacco a spillo alto e...di metallo...credo che quel tacco potrebbe tranquillamente essere classificato come arma letale ! :-).
Dopotutto, il 99% delle scarpe Paciotti che possiedo hanno il tacco a spillo...e in questo ultimo anno la mia collezioneè cresciuta. La cosa che mi fa amare questo brand è che con queste scarpe si può camminare senza essere assalite da un dolore lancinante ai piedi !.

I was wearing a H&M (old) necklace and I decided to keep my hair tied, for a change. Lipstick was dark, a mixture of Estée Lauder and Urban Decay, I am getting so used to these dark colors that I am wearing them more and more !.

Al collo portavo una collana di H&M e ho deciso di tenere i capelli legati, per cambiare un po'. Il rossetto era scuro, ottenuto mixandone uno mat di Estée Lauder ed una matita di Urban Decay, ormai mi ci sto abituando sempre più e porto spessissimo tinte scure !.

I am really glad when I find something original and I know it's a handmade work ! This dress really puts me in a good mood, it's a nice dress to wear in this period of the year, when Christmas holidays are already a memory and we have a couple of cold months ahead us.
I am fighting the winter blues with some shopping, movies and tv series, and finally tomorrow I will be back to the gym ! What about you, do you like this time of the year ?.


Sono davvero contenta quando trovo qualcosa di originale e frutto di lavoro artigianale ! Questo abito mi mette di buon umore, è perfetto da indossare in un periodo come questo, quando le vacanze natalizie sono ormai già un ricordo e abbiamo un paio di mesi freddi davanti a noi.
Sto combattendo la malinconia tipica di questo periodo con dello shopping, il cinema e le serie tv, e domani ricomincio seriamente la palestra ! Che mi dite di voi, vi piace questo periodo ?.

Moschino hat, Rebecca Minkoff bag, zip clutch

In spite of being a city girl and a lover of high heels, when I am wearing a casual outfit and I am surrounded by the nature, I feel very happy and free.
This outfit is from my days on the mountains, and it features my new Moschino hat and gloves and one of my Christmas presents I didn't show you yet: a Rebecca Minkoff mini 3 zip clutch in emerald green, that I will be wearing a lot also in Spring, no doubt about it !.


Nonostante io sia una ragazza di città e amante dei tacchi alti, quando indosso un outfit casual e sono circondata dalla natura mi sento particolarmente felice e libera.
Questo look risale ai miei giorni in montagna, quando ho indossato un nuovo cappello Moschino (come i guanti) e una borsa regalatami a Natale, che non vi avevo ancora mostrato: è una mini 3 zip di Rebecca Minkoff, color verde smeraldo, che sarà utilissima anche in primavera, ne sono certa !.

I was looking for a new hat, I wanted a colorful beanie and when I bumped into this one and tried it on, I ended up liking it even tho in the beginning I didn't want any evident logo on it. I have a collection of Fendi beanies I am sick and tired of wearing just cause I am tired of logos, but Moschino logo is always fun and ironic. Of course, I think it's more suitable for sporty/casual outfits like this one.
I love the pink tassels on the gloves !.


Cercavo l'ennesimo cappellino in lana con un po' di colore e quando ho provato questo ho finito per innamorarmene sebbene non volessi qualcosa con logo evidente. Ho tanti cappellini di Fendi che non uso più da tempo proprio perché stanca dei cappelli con logo, ma almeno il logo Moschino è più ironico e divertente. Ovviamente, questo cappellino è più adatto a look sportivi/casual come questo.
Amo le nappine rosa sui guanti !.

I am so in love with this Rebecca Minkoff bag, in spite of it being quite small ! The leather is very soft :-). I have already used it with a more elegant outfit without the shoulder strap, as a clutch, I will show you soon ;). You can see the bag better in the pic below.

La borsa di Rebecca Minkoff mi piace veramente tanto, è di una pelle morbidissima ed è rifinita molto bene, non è facile che una borsa di dimensioni ridotte mi piaccia così ! L'ho già adoperata anche con un outfit elegante togliendo la tracolla e portandola come clutch, presto vi farò vedere ;). Potete vederla meglio nella foto sottostante.

Il maglione è di Hugo Boss e mi piace tanto il colore che ha, inoltre è molto caldo e comodo. Avevate già visto i biker boots borchiati in un post precedente.

I really needed a few days on the mountains, they always recharge me, what an enchanting and relaxing place !. Shame they are already a memory !. I think it's a great thing to change your environment for a bit. Now I am back to my town and to the sea...and should I add, to my heels !.
I love them both, but I am curious to know...Do you prefer the mountains or the sea ?


Avevo proprio bisogno di qualche giorno in montagna, mi ricarica sempre, che posti incantevoli e rilassanti, peccato siano già un ricordo !. Non c'è cosa migliore che un cambio di ambiente per qualche giorno !. Ora sono tornata alla mia città, al mare e...ai miei tacchi !.
Io li amo entrambi, ma sono curiosa di sapere...preferite il mare o la montagna ?.

Cesare Paciotti blouse, Asos clash boots

There are outfits that put me in a good mood, just because they are colorful and some clothes are just so much fun to wear. This is the case with this look, featuring a Cesare Paciotti 70s style colorful blouse ! When I last visited the show-room I was looking for shoes and boots, but the brand doesn't only sell shoes, there's a whole line of clothes including dresses, shirts, skirts and so on. I came back home with this blouse that caught my attention for its colors ;).

Ci sono outfit che mi mettono di buon umore, magari solo perché ricchi di colori e perché vi sono dei capi divertenti da indossare. E' il caso di questo look, con una blusa di Cesare Paciotti molto anni '70 !. Quando ho visitato lo show-room l'ultima volta ero in cerca di scarpe e stivali, ma il brand produce anche una linea di abbigliamento che include abiti, gonne, camicie e così via. Questa blusa a collo alto ha attirato la mia attenzione prima di tutto per i suoi colori ;).

The boots were love at first sight on Asos, I had to buy them, just because they were different from all the other boots I had. Actually I tried to take them off my mind, I told myself I did not need those knee-high fold-over suede boots (blame it on the Givenchy fold-over boots trend !) with a folded cuff and an Aztec embroidered back panel. But they are a bit like one of those movies you thought you wouldn't even watch but then you end up watching until the last second, LOL !. They are very comfortable, I was very pleased once they arrived home and I tried them on, I am always a bit afraid when I order shoes just because they might hurt my feet !.

Gli stivali sono stati un amore a prima vista su Asos, li ho dovuti ordinare, sono diversi da tutti gli altri stivali che ho. A dire il vero ho cercato di togliermeli dalla testa, mi sono detta che non avevo bisogno di questi stivali alti fino a sotto al ginocchio, con questa piega (tutta colpa dei Givenchy fold-over boots !) e la stampa Atzeca sul retro, ma sono un po' come uno di quei film che si iniziano a guardare vergognandosi un po' ma che poi ti rapiscono fino alla fine !. Sono anche molto comodi, ne sono stata felice perché quando ordino scarpe online ho sempre la paura che non calzino bene o che facciano male !.

The bi-color leggings I am wearing in these pics are from Kai-Aakmann, a korean brand I really like for its approach to fashion and design !. I have a lovely blouse from the same brand I am gonna show you soon.
I decided to wear this colorful outfit with my cobalt blue Balenciaga City bag.


I leggings bicolore sono di Kai-Aakmann, un brand coreano che apprezzo molto per l'approccio molto moderno alla moda e al design. Ho una blusa molto bella e particolare di questo brand che prima o poi vi mostrerò.
Ho deciso di abbinare a questo outfit colorato la mia Balenciaga city blu elettrico.

Asos is always a very tempting place for me, I am trying to shop less in these days also because I have plenty of clothes and accessories for winter and I wanna shop for new season stuff !. I have been going to the movies and loved the new Quentin Tarantino movie, Django Unchained ! Have you watched it ?.
Anyway, I don't know how many days I can resist without finding something to buy...I will keep you informed ! ;).


Asos mi tenta sempre, sebbene abbia deciso di comprare per la nuova stagione, ho già molti abiti e accessori per l'inverno !. Ultimamente sono stata al cinema a vedere l'ultimo film di Quentin Tarantino, Django Unchained, l'ho adorato, voi lo avete visto ?.
Comunque sia, non so quanti giorni ancora io possa resistere senza trovare qualcosa da comprare...vi terrò informati ! ;).

Mixed print dress and studded pumps

mixed prints asos dress, studded pums, pigalle lookalike

I think mixing different kinds of prints can lead to interesting results and sure this dress caught my attention for this reason ! This bodycon pencil dress is another outcome of my shopping sprees on Asos, bought more than a couple of months ago, it features different kinds of houndstooth and leopard prints in black and white combo. The choice of black and white makes the contrast between the prints less "strong" and therefore, I think, better.
I thought such a statement dress looked better with no necklace, natural make up and tied up hair ;).


Credo che mixare diversi tipi di fantasie possa portare a risultati davvero interessanti, e questo abito ha attratto la mia attenzione proprio per questo motivo ! Questo vestito longuette dal taglio aderente è frutto di una delle mie scorribande di shopping su Asos, risale a più di un paio di mesi fa ed ha un mix di diverse stampe a diverse grandezze, pied de poule e animalier, in bianco e nero. La scelta del bianco e nero rende lo stacco tra i diversi tipi di stampa meno evidente e uniforma il tutto.
Ho pensato che un abito dalla forte personalità come questo stesse meglio senza collana, con un trucco più naturale e capelli legati ;).

The studded pumps are a cheaper version of the Louboutin studded Pigalle pumps, and are from B&H shoes. I love them ! If I had to buy a pair of Pigalles, I'd probably go for the plain ones just cause since their price is sky high, I would wear them more. These ones are great Made in Italy quality and are quite comfortable, I have to say. You can see them better in the pic below !.

Le deco borchiate mi sembrano una versione più economica delle Pigalle borchiate di Louboutin, e sono di B&H shoes. Le amo ! Se dovessi comprare un paio di vere Pigalle, sceglierei quelle lisce senza borchie, perché dato il considerevole prezzo quelle semplici sarebbero più portabili col passare del tempo. Queste scarpe sono di ottima qualità Made in Italy e abbastanza comode, devo dire. Potete vederle meglio nella foto sottostante.

Zara studded bag, Gucci watch, Tiffany infinity bracelet, Fashion and Cookies

The bag is from Zara and you saw it already. In the pic you can see a mix of Asos bracelets, my Gucci watch that was a present from my hubby (fiancé at the time) from years ago (I love that watch, it's so elegant !) and my beloved Tiffany Infinity bracelet. I hardly part myself from it ! I like to change clothes and style very often but there are a few bracelets and rings I wear all the time. I love to buy statement clothes, especially online. One thing is sure: unless stated, all the things you see me wearing in this blog are mine, and bought from me, and I wouldn't wear anything I don't really like. Here's a little set I made for this outfit !.

Avevate già visto la borsa borchiata di Zara. Nella foto potete vederla insieme al mix di braccialetti di Asos, al mio orologio di Gucci, regalo di mio marito (fidanzato al tempo) di anni fa (amo questo orologio, è così elegante !) e il mio adorato braccialetto Infinity di Tiffany. Me ne separo raramente ! Mi piace cambiare spesso abiti e stile ma ci sono alcuni braccialetti e anelli che indosso sempre. Mi piace comprare abiti particolari, specialmente online. Una cosa è sicura: a meno che non sia indicato espressamente, tutto ciò che indosso su questo blog è mio e comprato da me, e non indosserei mai qualcosa che non mi piace veramente. Ecco un piccolo set che ho preparato per questo outfit !.

Fashion and Cookies' second birthday: a party outfit !

Zara party dress, sequin print dress, Miu Miu pumps

Today Fashion and Cookies is turning 2 years old. Two years since my first, shy post ! Two years with you, my readers !. I am thankful for all the support, the inspiration and feedback, for the new friends I have made and for the ones I will hopefully make in the near future !.
In these two years, blogging has been so much fun for me, a passion that grows up, and I hope it stays this way. I already have a job outside the blogosphere and this blog is a pleasure, not a duty: my aim is to have fun with you, improve my style and communicate !. A birthday means party and therefore I have decided to post a little party dress outfit for my blog's second birthday.


Oggi Fashion and Cookies compie due anni. Due anni dal mio primo, timido post ! Due anni con VOI che mi leggete !. Sono grata per tutto il supporto, l'ispirazione e il feedback, per i nuovi amici che ho fatto e per quelli che spero di fare ancora nel prossimo futuro !.
In questi due anni, essere una blogger è significato divertimento per me, coltivare una passione crescente, e spero che resti sempre così. Ho già un lavoro al di fuori della blogosfera e questo blog è un piacere più che un dovere: il mio scopo è divertirmi insieme a voi, migliorare il mio stile e comunicare !. Un compleanno è sempre un evento da festeggiare e per l'occasione ho deciso di postare un outfit con un piccolo party dress.

Zara party dress, sequin print dress, Miu Miu pumps

This Zara sequin print dress caught my attention immediately, mostly for the mix of colors. Love them !. I bought it before Christmas (sadly, still at full price !) thinking it would be nice to wear also in Spring - I have seen a couple of dresses still on sale at Zara, I personally advice you to go and get it !.
I matched my Miu Miu purple suede heels that had been waiting for a while in my shoe closet. My legs were warm in my opaque tights, and on my shoulders I had a short cardi that is not in the pictures, because I wanted to show you the dress better.


Questo abitino di Zara con paillettes stampate ha attirato la mia attenzione immediatamente, soprattutto per il mix di colori, che amo. L'ho comprato prima di Natale (quindi, ancora a prezzo intero !) pensando che sarebbe stato carino da indossare anche in Primavera. L'ho visto in saldo da Zara e vi consiglio di andare a prenderlo !.
L'ho abbinato alle mie pumps di Miu Miu in camoscio viola che attendevano da un bel po' nella scarpiera. Le mie gambe erano ben al calduccio nelle calze opache 100 denari, e sulle spalle portavo un cardigan corto, non fotografato perché volevo mostrarvi l'abitino per bene ;).

I took the shoulder strap off my Rebecca Minkoff bag and it became an evening clutch. I just liked those colors together !. I had purple and green stones also in my necklace, and purple was my OPI nail polish, too. You can see the bag in detail in the pic below.

Togliendone la tracolla, la mia borsa di Rebecca Minkoffè diventata una clutch comoda per la sera. Mi piaceva l'idea di abbinarla per via del colore ! Avevo pietre viola e verdi nella collana ed anche lo smalto di OPI era nei toni del viola. Potete vedere meglio alcuni dettagli nella foto sottostante.

The Zara bracelet is adorable and it's much better to wear it with sleeveless dresses, because it tends to damage my knitwear with all those stones !. Here we are with my little party outfit. I wish I could offer a slice of cake to you all, to thank you for your support, your comments and for the time you spend reading this blog !. A big hug to you all !.

Il bracciale di Zara è adorabile ma è meglio indossarlo con abiti smanicati, perché tende ad impigliarsi nelle maglie, con tutte quelle pietre !. Ecco, è tutto per stavolta, il mio look da festa è completo. Vorrei offrire a tutti voi una fetta di torta per ringraziarvi del vostro supporto, dei vostri commenti e del tempo che dedicate a leggere questo blog !. Un abbraccio a tutti !.

Estee Lauder palette spring 2013, Fashion and Cookies

First of all, let me express my deepest sympathy to the fellow beauty bloggers out there...people might think taking outfit pics can be a hassle, and that taking pics of make up and objects in general is very easy...actually it's not true ! I am a make up junkie and very often I would love to show off my latest beauty related purchases...but taking pics to blushes, palettes and lipsticks is not easy at all, most of the times it takes so much time and patience, moreover the result is not the one I wanted, colors seem different, the pics turn out blurred and so on. Add to this that taking pics to already used items is not the case, and I am too eager to try my new things to wait to take pics. Anyway, here we are with a few pics of my latest make up purchases, before I start using them for real and they can't be photographed anymore, LOL. Let me start with (pic above) Estée Lauder's Pure Color Five Color EyeShadow Palette "Pretty Naughty" and Pure Color Illumination Powder Gelée Blush "Tease". This blush is probably my fave purchase among the ones I am showing you !.

Innanzitutto, lasciatemi esprimere la mia profonda solidarietà a tutte le beauty bloggers della blogosfera...la gente potrebbe pensare che fare foto di outfit sia una fatica e che farle, invece, a make up ed oggetti inanimati sia semplice e veloce...assolutamente falso ! Io sono una grande amante del make up e spesso vi vorrei mostrare i miei nuovi acquisti in fatto di trucco...ma fare foto a blush, palette e rossetti non è affatto semplice, richiede molto tempo e pazienza, oltretutto il risultato è spesso diverso da quello sperato...colori che sembrano diversi, foto sfuocate e così via. Aggiungeteci il fatto che fare foto a prodotti giù usati non è il massimo, e spesso sono troppo impaziente di provare le mie nuove meraviglie !. Tutto ciò premesso, eccovi qualche foto dei miei ultimi acquisti in fatto di make up, prima che io li inizi ad usare e li renda impresentabili !. Iniziamo con (nella foto in alto)la palette primaverile di Estée Lauder "Pretty Naughty" e il blush rosa illuminante in formula gel-polvere "Tease". Questo blush è probabilmente l'acquisto che preferisco tra quelli che vi mostro in questo post !.

Chanel make up, Dior gris trianon, Fashion and Cookies

This Chanel palette "Eclats du soir" is from Christmas collection, bought as soon as it came out but I didn't have the courage to start using it, yet ! Love it :). Ooh la Lift from Benefit has already become my best friend, especially in the morning, it helps brightening the under-eye area and for me it works so well !. Then we have Dior nail polish "Gris Trianon" (already on my nails) and Chanel nail polish for Spring, Fracas (not tried yet).

Questa palette occhi di Chanel "Eclats du soir" proviene dalla collezione natalizia, comprata non appena comparsa nei negozi ma non l'ho ancora inziata ! La adoro :). Ooh La lift di Benefit è già diventato il mio migliore amico, specialmente al mattino, aiuta ad illuminare la zona sotto agli occhi e funziona davvero bene !. Poi abbiamo lo smalto Dior "Gris Trianon", già sulle mie unghie, e il nuovo smalto della collezione primaverile Chanel "Fracas" (non ancora provato).

Dior cherie bow palette spring 2013, Fashion and Cookies

My beloved Dior palette Cherie Bow #001 Rose Poudre it's so cute ! I also bought the Diorblush Cherie Bow Edition #659 in Tender Coral. I am pretty obsessed with coral blushes so it had to be mine !.

La mia agognata palette Dior Cherie Bow n. 001 Rose Poudre è troppo carina ! Di questa collezione ho preso anche il blush Cherie Bow Edition #659 in Tender Coral. Sono fissata con i blush corallo e l'ho dovuto fare mio !.

Dior cherie bow blush spring 2013, Fashion and Cookies

The stick you see on the left is a new product from Benefit, Fine-One-One, a sheer brightening cheek & lip color. I was so attracted by this one and hope it won't disappoint me, anyway I usually love all Benefit products !. The lipsticks are from Estée Lauder, Pure Color Vivid shine in Magnetic Magenta and Pink Riot, and the Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick is from Spring collection and it's called Envoutante. I love these lipsticks so badly !.

Lo stick che vedete a sinistra è un nuovo prodotto di Benefit, Fine-One-One, un illuminante colorato per guance e labbra che ha attirato subito la mia attenzione, spero non mi deluda ma di solito amo tutti i prodotti Benefit !. I rossetti sono di Estée Lauder, della serie Pure Color Vivid shine nei colori Magnetic Magenta e Pink Riot, e il rossetto Chanel Rouge Allure è della collezione primaverile, si chiama Envoutante.

Dior cherie bow blush spring 2013, Fashion and Cookies

These purchases are from a couple of months ago, two palettes, one from Urban Decay (Dangerous Palette) and the other one is from Too Faced, it's called the return of Sexy. The first one is cool but I found out I had half of those colors already in another UD palette, it seems they tend to repeat themselves and I blame it also on me for buying without thinking twice. The other palette is very cool but also very shimmery, I am guilty of that, too !. You can see the eye liner in the corner, it's from Too Faced and I've been using it so much lately, it's the 3 Way Lash Lining tool, perfect for cat eyes and I am gonna buy it again and again and...again ! ;). On the right corner, Essie's nail polish "Cute as a button".

In questa foto troviamo due palettes che risalgono ad un paio di mesi fa, una di Urban Decay (Dangerous palette) e l'altra di Too Faced, chiamata The Return of Sexy. La prima è molto bella ma ho scoperto solo dopo di avere già la metà degli stessi ombretti in un'altra palette UD, pare tendano a ripetersi e io a comprare troppo senza pensarci due volte. L'altra palette è stupenda anche se i colori sono troppo shimmer, mi dichiaro colpevole anche per questa !. Potete vedere, in un angolo, l'eye liner di Too Faced a tre punte "3 Ways Lash Lining Tool", perfetto per gli occhi "da gatta", che adoro e comprerò ancora, ancora e...ancora !.
In un angolino a destra, lo smalto di Essie "Cute as a button".

I would still have other things to show you but I'll better stop. I love make up and whenever I enter into Sephora I am ready to spend too much on make up, sometimes I tell myself I have to use what I already have, then so many new products come out and new seasonal collections and BAM ! Here I am again, back at square one like a true makeupaholic :). Do you have my same addiction ? Do you own any of the products I have showed you in this post ? Do you plan to buy anything ?. Is there anything you think I should add to my newest purchases ? I am very curious to know !.

Avrei ancora tante cose da mostrarvi ma è meglio che mi fermi, ora. Il fatto è che adoro il make up e ogni volta che entro da Sephora sono pronta a fare danni...a volte mi dico che è meglio che usi tutte le cose che ho già prima di prenderne altre, poi escono nuovi prodotti, le collezioni stagionali e BAM ! Ricado nell'acquisto ancora una volta, sono una vera makeupdipendente :). Avete la mia stessa dipendenza ? Avete già qualche prodotto che vi ho mostrato in questo post ? Prevedete di comprare qualcuno ? Oppure mi consigliate qualcosa che non ho ancora comprato ? Sono molto curiosa di sentire la vostra !.
