Ciao from Bella Italia


Thanks so much for all your sweet comments you´ve posted! 


I´m back home from my little trip to Italy.
My sister and I love inviting our Mom a few times a year
for some "holiday weekends".
I guess it always means the world to everyone of
us spending a few days together...

ITALIAN WEEKEND CAPTURES ...

Waiting for the luggage at the airport in Milan

Buying some international magazines at
the airport
(eyecatching cover of "Jewel" Vogue, IT)


Comfortable Ann D´s? ...
Actually ... "yes" ... but after hours of walking around....
I have some lace-up tattoos ;)


On the "Autostrada del Sole"



"Bally" captures:
I can´t help myself lovin´ long maxi dresses

How cute are these little Burberry lambs
looking like "take me home" ;)


"Aua Füße"
from left to right: shoes, foot (ow!), ice cream

(after 5 hours wearing my Ann D´s ..."comfortable"
becomes a new definition ;)


Back in Milan:
Always a "must": the Marni Outlet in Via Tajani


Lucky Sister:
she got these Marni sandals for 70% off; last available piece and her size


more Marni captures:

Old tram in Milan

"Autogrill" stop on the way from Milan to Florence

Yummy "ciabatta spinacio" .. don´t eat & drive ;)

Caught up in a traffic jam from Bologna to Florence


Best thing to start a sunny italian summer day:
yummy breakfast

Me and my Roberto Cavalli lace maxi dress;
Watch your step, Martina ...



An evening out for dinner
Wore Ann Demeulemeester´s beaded glass necklace for the very first time

My sister´s new sandals matched her Marni dress ..

♡what I wore
look1:Balenciaga dress, Alaia leggings, Ann D. heels, LV bag
look2: Roberto Cavalli lace dress, Prada heels, LV bag
look3: dress & necklace: Ann Demeulemeester, Fendi silver pochette


Wishing you a sunny & joyful week!!!

  4. AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH - YOU'RE BACK!!!! And with tons and tons and tons and tons of your fabulous fashion items!
    Countless beautiful stunning details to find here! :-D
    I'm in awe with your new Demeulemeester dress and necklace! HEAVEN! A breathtaking combination!

    Hah - and I recognized the Autogrill stop - can you remember when we were there, hungry and tired, and when poor little you have lost the Ciabatta with tomatoes? It's coming to my mind like it was yesterday :)

    And this time: Your poor Füße, Mädsche... :(

    I hope you've spend a great time together and that the trip was successful at all!

    Oh, forgot: The Cavalli dress is so amazing! Your tailor did a great job this time again so it's not sheer any more!

    Happy sunny (not so stormy) day to youuu as well!! Good to see you're back again!

  5. Lovely holiday pictures - thanks for posting! I love all your outfits, especially the Ann D shoes (I'm really tempted to get them now that I keep seeing them on your blog), the Balenciaga dress and of course the new necklace :) You forgot to mention that you're carrying a Miss Marc tote by the way!

    Beautiful Bally dresses as well and your sister is so lucky she got those Marni sandals! Have a great week!

  6. Hi Martina ~
    Thanks for sharing such lovely photos! What a wonderful way to spend a short holiday. Mmmm, so much eye candy to see! My favorites: Cavalli dress, Bally dresses, Ann D dress & necklace look so stunning together, blue Marni dress, Burberry Lamb's, your Prada heels (what kind of stones adorn them? Too hard for me to tell in the pic), and of course your Ann D lace ups, but ouch!
    Glad you had a happy and safe trip! Have a wonderful week! :-)

  7. Dear Athena-
    I wish I could tell you anything about
    the stones. From what I believe they are
    blue opals but I´m honestly not sure about
    it ;)

    Dear Haute-Shopper-
    ...ups ... ;)... thanks for mention the
    missing MJ bag!

    Good night to everyone!!!
