Paris countdown -3

nop....I don't have a cape but I have a camel coat (here)


Clothes, looks, wardrobe, I am getting crazy deciding what to bring with me on my trip to Paris. I am rummaging even in b/f closet!

4 days of conference, 4 days around Paris:

4 smart looks, high heels, blazers, shirts....(oh, and the LBD for the gala dinner on Tue)
4 (well maybe more) looks for going around Paris.

It's going to be cold (hope it won't rain) but I do wanna look elegant, sophisticated, trés chic! (maybe I'll freeze but I will be hip&cool **ehehe**)

As suggested by my lovely friend C, I am going to bring a ruffled shirt. And my favourite accessories. I have faux-fur collar, some glittery hats, soft and warm gloves.

uhm...2 pairs of boots? oh! and the pochette for the gala dinner.
OMG! I am going to bring too much stuff, I know! (but I do not care...!)

OMG(2)! I have almost forgot those beautiful high heels ankle boots that I bought this summer in Germany! Sooo warm as stuffed with sheep wool (and so cool!)







Wanna laught??
I have a yellow hard suitcase and a bright-pink laptop bag!
(but I will avoid to wear the striped H&M dress while travelling or people around think I am mad.. **EHEHEHEHH**

A conference in Eurodisney?

Did I tell you that company conference I will be attending next week will ne hold in EuroDisney?

Yeah, I know it sounds crazy! Especially if you think about the my company business and that attendees will be mainly men, over 30s…

But I am going to find half day time to visit the fun park and feel like a kid again! ;-)

Dinner at 20.00

Some friends are coming along for dinner tonight. But I will not leave the office before 18.30, so I need something quick, tasty and perfect with friends to make!

Here is my recipe, ingredients for 4 hungry friends:

mix all together 250 ml of cream, 1 tablespoon of anchovies' paste, and 1 small can of tuna in olive oil. Put it in a serving bowl (1 & 2).

Aside, cook 500gr of pasta on salted water (not spaghetti), dry it and pour it into the bowl (3 & 4).

Add a handful of fresh, chopped parsley and some 'taggiasche'* olives (5).

Stir all together and serve (6 & 7).

* the delicious taggiasche olives comes from the Liguria region in Italy. Small, green to brown shade, very tasty and a bit expensive!

Buon appetito!!!

Yesterday, I have check the wardrobe to start plannng what to wear and see if 'something is missing' (so maybe I need some little shopping?)

Window shopping in Milan - part1

the quite BEFORE the storm

[ehi! remember to enter my GIVEAWAY!]




I was lucky enough to spend a few hours cycling in Milan on Saturday before an heavy rain came to visit all Italy!

I had the opportunity to spot some hidden places and lovely corners.

Yes, I can hear you saying: "Any shopping?", well just one dress for a tenner in H&M... and so much window shopping! (as usual...)
