Snapshots of Life VIII

I went to South Italy two weeks ago to visit the rest of the family and these are some of the pics I took whilst I was there. Enjoy!

Snapshots of Life VII

These are by far my favourite type of blog posts to write. It's sort of a way to collect memories. 

Sunsets in the summer time are one of my favourite things (even though I don't get along with this season)

Snapshots of Life VI

We spent the morning in the city, and then, around lunch time, we went to the new Arese Shopping Center (ex Alfa Romeo's building) which is massive. There are more than 200 shops - we only saw a tiny part of it! Here's a pic of the shopping center and there's a list of all the shops.My friends and I went to Milan, last Sunday. Needless to say how beautiful that city is. The last time I went there was six years ago, for a school trip.

Last Sunday, my family and I, went to the same trattoria where we went almost one year ago (Up In The Hills). I love that piece of earth, because it feels like you are in another world.

Eight days later but: HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you're doing well so far!

These last days I've been quite busy doing nothing and eating like there's no tomorrow. Especially oreo cakes, pastries, lasagna, panettone and macarons. I also stepped out of the house and been to places, with people. Yes. REAL PEOPLE. Anyway, the following pics briefly sum up the last few days. 

My lovely mother gave me this amazing candle for Christmas. 

Needless to say that I've been burnin' it since Christmas day. 

I mean, not continuously. You got it.

There's a new little friend on my ear! I would love to do a third piercing but my ear is too small. Meh. Planning on doing the tragus piercing, though.

OREO CAKE. That's all. 

Ehm, snow?

It's amazing what nature can do. Right?

Enjoy Like Gold II. I think the last photograph is breathtaking.

Like Gold I

Whilst I was visiting my family, I had the pleasure to photograph some amazing sunsets. I really miss this terrance and the view.

Part II coming soon!

Snapshots of Life III

Hello! I'm back. Kind of. My laptop keeps dying and then resuscitates and then dies again and... I need a new laptop.

Anyway, these are the photos I took whilst I was visiting my family, in South Italy. I had a great week and I can't wait to go back there, next summer.

Snapshots of Life II

1. 28/07 - The lovely view from my bedroom and... sunset (it's not a news).

2. 30/07 - I also posted this photo on my Instagram. I had my second RMI that afternoon and I was coming back home. The sky situation was tragic.  

3 & 4. 01/08 - This is how my living room looks like at 6:58AM & one hour later, I took this pic whilst I was going to eat breakfast, with my dad.

5. 02/08 - My family and I had a lovely lunch outside, today. Another day of decent temperatures and then hello again, 35°C.
6 & 7. 02/08 - My mom went a little bit crazy today: she cooked lasagna (don't ask me why she put meatballs on top) and made a yogurt cake. 

Art is to console those who are broken by life

There are 21°C outside and I couldn't be happier. In the past few weeks we had like 34 to 37 degrees which is madness. I don't like hot weather and I can't wait for autumn/winter.

Also, I love when the sky is like this, in summer.

Snapshots of Life I

A few days ago, I read a tweet by Lily, in which was linked an old blog post that she wrote a year ago: Think Like A Blogger. And, yesterday, she posted a sort of 'part 2' of the same topic.

It's been 10 days since I last posted something on here, because I run out of ideas, basically. I mean, I had a few ideas but most of times they didn't seem enough for the blog. Then I thought, what is enough? What does it mean? Aren't these on-line spaces created for a personal use? This is my space, and I can do whatever I want with it.

As Lily says, is often thought that buying things = content for the blog. But, just look around you, and you'll see that it's not true.

I often put so much pressure on me (for what), especially when it comes to taking pictures. Then, if something isn't coming out as I wanted, I get nervous and I give up (story of my life, yay).

I decided that if I like a photo, or more photos, then I'll post it. Whether it's taken with a phone, or a reflex or whatever. Even on my blog, and I should not care if the photos aren't all clear and the objects aren't nicely placed on the table.

1. That was the nicest cheesecake thing I've ever eaten. It was like a cake, inside a brioches.

2. H&M order finally arrived! And I was waiting for it in the garden. In five minutes, I got five mosquitoes bites (instagram where I complain). Lovely.

3. For me, Chanel n°19 means: back to 15, winter and old, consumed and baggy Brandy&Melville's long-sleeved shirt.

4. I'm wearing my brand new H&M dress and a very old Primark green shirt. Oh, and two weeks ago I cut my hair short, AGAIN. When my mom saw she was like 'Why. Again'. And my dad was pretty happy, because he loves short hair. He asked me a few times when I was gonna get a pixie cut (again) because he loved it, when I got it the first time.
