I almost forgot...

Ciao and hello!
I almost forgot....this is ME!


I'm on the balcony and I took this pic especially for the blog! I'm all in black..as usual. Black is my best friend...timeless, chic and minimalist.

Rain has started to fall even here in Italy...it hasn't stopped since this morning and in the meantime I'm getting ready for my birthday party on Wednesday. I'm planning to have an Aperitivo with some of my closest friends. It will be nice to have them here. Finger-food and Lasagne :))
I'll upload some pics on Thursday.
So, today we're stuck at home. Thomas is now watching Fireman Sam, his favourite cartoon and I'm enjoying the time for myself. Actually, I've just had a mad hour cooking corn, zucchini and some spinach for tonight..it's steak night!
I played a lot with T earlier. I strongly believe that running around the table (chasing him) is a fantastic way to loose some calories.. what do you think? ;)

I hope you'll have a nice evening!

And bonus...T didn't wake up! :O


Buona notte! Good night!

Baci Baci.

Greetings from Italy...

Ciao and welcome to my Blog!

My name is Sara. 
I'm 100% Italian, I have a English husband (Andrew), a 3 year old born-in-Paris son (Thomas Raphael) and a collection of fantastic design handbags that I consider part of the family LOL :)
I currently live in Bologna (Italy), after a long time spent abroad, in Paris, London and Paris again. 
I have a typical Italian family, my parents are very traditional with huge FA-MI-LY values and a house always open for friends. But I'll tell you about my family later.

This Blog is a friend I intend to share with you to talk about life, family, ideas, dreams and obviously fashion :)

I work for YOOX Group, www.yoox.com one of the biggest e-stores for multibrand fashion, art and design and I consider myself lucky for dealing with the most famous fashion brands in the world every day!
I know...you're probably envious right now but I promise you that it's not easy to:

  • not spending ALL my salary on yoox.com 
  • not spending ALL my salary on thecorner.com (a e-boutique for high fashion and niche designers - the other website we have)
  • not spending ALL my salary on shoescribe.com  (dedicated entirely to high-end shoes - the latest site we created) 

As you've probably understood, my life is a constant temptation of handbags, shoes, dresses, accessories...and I try to juggle between being a career shopping-addicted girl and a great mum for T (Thomas). 
If you want to know more about the company I work for, take 3 minutes and watch the video here http://www.yooxgroup.com/en/company_profile/the_group.asp  
You'll also see where I work! :)

I have to go now but I'll come back soon to start telling you more about my life, my family and my day-by-day experience in Fashionland. 

Baci Baci
