Rockabilly - Secretary Outfit

 ♫ Hi Cats and Kittens ♫

Yippee, it's getting warmer! Today I wore my favorite vintage, checkered pencil skirt with a red 1950s-style  sweater. I decided to wear black shoes, a black belt (not in karate haha, I'm so funny) and opted for my black vintage bag to complete the look. I love wearing combinations of red, black and white. They're the perfect colors for rockabilly, pin up style outfits. Now that the weather's nice, I'll be wearing more skirts. Stay tuned for some Mad Men inspired outfits!

Ciao Bambole e Bambolotti,

Il tempo sta finalmente migliorando quì, quindi oggi mi sono messa la mia gonna vintage a tubino con un maglioncino rosso, stile anni '50. Scarpe, cintura e borsa vintage nere per completare il mio look da segretaria rockabilly. Adoro vestirmi di rosso, nero e bianco. Sono i colori perfetti per lo stile Rockabilly/Pin Up. 

Quali sono i vostri colori preferiti? Un saluto e buona settimana!

In the end, I put on my eyeglasses so that I could 

finally see what I'm looking at!!! 

Sayonara for now!

Viva la pasta!

Spaghetti and meatballs is one of my favorite dishes. 

Which is your favorite pasta dish??

With amore, 

Spaghetti Pin Up

A Rockin' New Year

Happy New Year guys and dolls!

How did you celebrate? I sure ate a lot.

Then I sang a few tunes and played my beloved Elvis records.

This is what I wore on New Year's Eve:

Buon Anno a tutti!

Come avete festeggiato?? Io ho mangiato e mangiato.

Poi ho messo i dischi del mio cantante preferito ;)

Ecco come mi sono vestita la vigilia di Capodanno:

A ''resting'' pose. Swinging them arms and legs around is hard work, you know!

Here's to a rockin' 2016!

Pretty Flamingo

Hi dolls, hope you're enjoying September. It's my favorite month; I'm a September Virgo ;) Taking advantage of this lovely weather, here I am wearing my Banned flamingo dress and perfect for the occasion, my Fernando the Flamingo brooch from Jess Collinge (www.jesscollinge.com). 

Remember this post on Jess Collinge's pineapple brooch? :) 

These brooches are even prettier in person <3

Here I'm thinking ''What other pose should I do...?''

Fernando wanted to be in the spotlight too!

Have a great week and remember: ''be a flamingo in a world full of pigeons''! Sorry, no offence, pigeons!! 

**************************************************

Buona settimana a tutti e ricordatevi: 

''siate dei fenicotteri rosa in un mondo pieno di piccioni''! 

Senza offesa ai piccioni!!

 Hi guys and dolls, hope you're having a lovely weekend! It was Elvis week.....The King will never be forgotten!

*************************************************

Ciao a tutti, spero che stiate trascorrendo un buon weekend. Questa settimana era la settimana di Elvis...il Re del rock'n'roll non sarà mai dimenticato!

Double polka dot dress

Hello darlings,

This is my favorite dress; I've been wearing it very often to work and on weekends as it's so comfy. Check out the double polka dots...you know how I love polka dots, I'm a polkadoterian ;) My mother has the same one and we bought them at a market several years ago for a very cheap price. You don't have to spend a million dollars to look like a million dollars honey!

Ciao care e cari,

Questo è il mio  abito preferito; lo sto mettendo molto spesso sia al lavoro che nei weekend visto che è comodissimo. Vedete i pois doppi? Yipppeeee ancora meglio per una pois-o-mane come me! Mia madre ha uno identico e li abbiamo comprati al mercatino per 7 euro anni fa. Mica bisogna spendere una cifra per vestirsi bene!

So, what are your plans this weekend? Here it's too hot even to plan!  I just feel like sitting in my fridge. Anyway, my chi is nice and clean after a 'refreshing' bath:
*******************************************************************************
Allora, come state trascorrendo questo weekend? Fa troppo caldo..ho voglia solo di sedermi dentro il frigo. Comunque, il mio tesoro è bello pulito dopo un bel bagnetto:

Ciao for now!
