MADE IN ITALY PART I

Buona Pasqua (en retard)! I am stuffed with enough food to feed me until next Easter. Hope everyone had a great long weekend!

As much as I bitch about not understanding Italian (they speak 0 english in the small towns), I love going back to Mass' family's home because they're so warm and welcoming, despite the language barrier. (perhaps if I knew what they were saying I might not feel the same. Kidding!) Anyway, unfortunately I haven't had the time to sift through the hundred photos I took (that's a lot for me!) but there will be more to come. For now, here are some of the goodies I picked up in Italy.



Mass brought me to the Cesare Paciotti factory about an hour away and I picked up these two beauties. The brogues were love at first sight. You can't tell but there is a royal blue on the inside and in the sun, the shoes change colour. My favourite pair of brogues by miles, even though the red soles are scuffed :(


Love animal jewelry! Picked up this frog ring from a small town Greve, in Chianti, Tuscany, in their antique market. I loved so many of their rings, but most of them were too big (including this one). We bought it anyway, and now I found a new use for my Tiffany mesh ring: a blockade! ;)

Ciao, from Fabriano to Tuscany to London
