Favole da leggere

One night shopping online kinda got out of my hands. I went to the Amazon.com to see how to order a book and last week got a package of these… Can`t wait to go to bed in the evenings now.

Passeggiata sul Naviglio

Yesterday afternoon we did a little filming project about me in Naviglio. It was funny to see afterwards myself speaking in the film. I wanna start making little clips more often... maybe I will add them here as well.

Only in Italy!!!

This one is for my friend Anne. She always starts to laugh when I tell an "Only in Italy"-story. I went to Calzedonia the other day to get some new socks to be worn with high heels. I need to tell you that "le calze= socks". I entered the store and found out that it was full of bikinis and bathing suits. I kindly asked the sales lady if they would have any socks in the sock store and she just looked at me strangely saying that yes, but in the fall. Stupid me to go to buy socks in the sock store and not understand that it is bikini season… meaning who uses socks in the summer time???? ;o)

Only in Italy!!!!

Catalogo per i bambini

Last fall I met Caroline from Brazil who was studying styling in Marangoni at a Halloween party of a friend . She wanted to do photo shooting with my baby clothing. It all kinda stayed behind for some months until this spring she contacted me again. We started to do research of what would be possible and what would I like. At the end she took care of everything always asking my opinion and I only lent her the clothing.

On the day of the shooting I went to Marangoni as well to see how everything was going and felt pretty emotional… I felt that I almost would like to study there again. After we finished I visited administrations upstairs and met Daphne. On my way down I needed to stop on the pattern floor to see if my teacher Mario would be there. How cool was it to be back there!

When I finally get my web page open you get to see the whole result.
The photographers were Marco Castellani and Renata Liszkai from Black Light Studio.

Misto di primavera…

I have been crazy busy since Easter and the weeks have just flown by. I emptied my little camera last night and found a mixture of pictures that I already had forgotten that existed.

My dear friend Ela had a birthday dinner for her friends in Maison Espana and all I can remember of the over priced meny was that the bubbles and the cake were good (and eventually the only things that I had.) I still love you baby, but next time another restaurant please…..

We participated a surprise party organized for our friend Pinni in `Le Maschere` close to Porta Venezia with a lot of friends.



This little guy I found on top of my door one evening I returned home from a dinner in Naviglio. It is the first one I have seen in center Milan.

So happy to see Finlandia mugs in Italy. ;o)


Hmmm… Couples therapy needed?

Cindy Lauper a Milano 2011

Last night I went to see Cindy Lauper`s concert in Milan Jazzing Festival which was hold in Arena, in Parco Sempione. The weather forecast promised rain and I had heard from my friends that the mosquitos would eat you alive, but no rain and even for my own surprise no bites. Not a single one!!! Thanks to Sara`s Tropical spray I guess.

The lady was even better alive than on cd with an amazing voice. We had a great time with my girlfriends and for a once the men were left outside…






The last 2 songs she came to sing alone without her band. Beautiful! This video I found from Youtube. Thanks to`mapir2000`.
