Look of the day: Pocketful of sunshine

Hello lovelies
are you on vacations or are you already at work?
My days at the SPA were dreamy, I really adore those places that are in my heart since I was a baby.
You have noticed that I really like Desigual, this brand makes me happy and smiley, and the dress I wore in these pics is by them! Known worlwide for their passion for colors, this dress is really simple, a combo of white and denim but, in perfect Desigual style, it doesn't pass unnoticed for the particular embellished in the front and for the girly bottom.
Hope that you will like it and let me know what you think!

Look of the day: Flying without wings

Hello beauties
how are your holidays going? Everything fine and perfect?
Today I share with you another look of my trip to the SPA in Dolomities... I love how these places are peaceful and relaxing, they transmit you an immediate feeling of quiet and are perfect to recharge batteries.
I enjoyed wearing simply and comfy looks with a pop of color, in this case, given from the baubles-chic Shine necklace that brings lot of joy to the outfit. I adore this sweet statement necklace, that has also its pair of earrings that you'll see again soon in another outfit, but the thing that impressed me the most is that it arrived to me with a little letter written by Shine team as a sort of cuddle to the customer and I appreciated so much this, don't you?
Gas Pop-Up jeans and a bat-wing blouse that gave the wings I need to try to fly like an unwary Icarus and here I was ready to conquer the village :D
Hope that you will like it, let me know what you think!

Even if I'm on vacation it's impossible not thinking about my biggest hobby... Shopping :) And just because, due to holidays, here in Italy the majority of shops are closed I took a look to online shopping and discovered a new place to shop, DaWanda!

I adore the minimalism of inVITROlab, the preciousness of Vidar jewelry and I was very impressed by the paintings present in Matrice 's shop.

Costella Handbags with gift

Hello lovelies
one of the best part is finding new fabulous and luxurious brands and one of those is definetely Costella Handbags by my beloved Luciana Ellington!
Originally from Rio De Janeiro, Luciana's love of fashion began at a very young age. Her Grandmother taught her how to sew, create patterns and design stand-out styles using repurposed materials to make something unique and new.
At the age of fifteen, Luciana learned the art of photography as an assistant to Brazilian fashion photographer Chico Nascimento. He was a huge in fluence in Luciana's life and gave her the skills necessary to launch a career in photography. Here she focused on her two passions ... fashion and action sports.
When Luci was seventeen, she started skateboarding and in 1995 earned herself a ticket to the United States as a professional skateboarder in 1999. After several years, Luci utilized the connections of her sponsors such as Roxy and Quiksilver to create a new niche in the action sports industry. She developed her own girls skateboarding publication. Within the pages of Check It Out Girls, Luci again combined her love for fashion, action sports and photography.
In January 2008, Luci reinvented her known passions and enterprising lifestyle by creating Costella Handbags. Locally sourced and produced, this luxurious and style-catching collection makes a statement by blending con dent shapes, rich and exotic leathers with bold and daring hardware embellishments.

Today, Luciana is a successful business owner, designer, wife, and mother of two. Inspired by her Brazilian heritage and tastefully mixed with her multi-faceted lifestyle of today, Costella creates courageous and purposeful silhouettes for the woman in demand. Luci’s target niche encompasses powerful and savvy women that are successfully accomplishing their daily tasks while wearing Costella accessories.
