Monnalisa per l’inverno prossimo ha giocato anche con lettering e ricami, mescolati alle stampe Toile de Jouy e a un pizzico di Tartan.

Good morning everyone has arrived cold and then you have to run for cover!I’ve been talking about my favorite showroom for stoves and fireplaces for a while … well, I’m talking about Vicenza Stufe. In this period Nicola and I are deciding many things for the renovation of our new home and this is another thing that I have been talking about for a while on my social networks; obviously when we have to decide which fireplace to buy, we had no doubts as to where we wanted to go and make our purchase. I have discovered new things, indeed several new things, of which I wanted to speak to you. First of all, do you know anything about the heat account incentive, better known as Thermal Account 2.0?  It is a law that came into force two years ago which provides a cash contribution, for the new installation of stoves, fireplaces and biomass boilers, which meet specific requirements and are installed in place of existing heating systems. Even you can get an economic savings of 65% ……. wow! And the great thing is that Vicenza Stufe organizes a turnkey service! Is not it fantastic? After that, choosing the stove that best suits our needs and that feels good inside our home is not easy, especially when you enter a showroom and you like everything you see! In Vicenza Stufe you can find the most important brands of the whole landscape, both Italian and European. We say without half measures that the Nordic countries with brands like Stuv are leaders in the world, but we too defend ourselves with Piazzetta very well. But I come from the north, as regards the heating sector I addressed a stove that comes from my same cardinal point. After being oriented towards a brand, choosing which was the right machine for our family needs was the second thing not really simple. Fireplaces, stoves or thermostoves? And then wood, pellets, gas or biotanol? It seemed easy, right? And instead….!We are a dynamic family, me and Nicola always work and we stay at  home most in the weekend, but not a lot … we are often around during the weekend and then, which one to choose?
The fireplace or the wood stove is a very natural solution that creates a wonderful climate, but who has time to buy wood, unload it from the car, take it home, place it on the fireplace, wait for it to turn on well, ect … We do not!? And the pallet one? Also, too demanding. We decided that the one that suited us most was the gas one.
We are a modern family, who will have an ultramodern fireplace! Our new home has underfloor heating and therefore we do not need a machine that can heat a large room, but more than anything else that creates a warm environment. I already see that I return home with Ginevra and after taking off shoes and put the slippers on the feet, I press a button on the remote control to get in a very practical and fast way, the fireplace on! Fantastic … Soon I will give you more news, see you soon ….

Technologies can help us take care of our skin? Can they intervene to “overturn” the imperfections that invade it? Can they also make the obvious ones easier with time?  One million dollar questions, which find a response from a few euros: the Dermaroller. This tool is extremely simple, inexpensive and also very effective.Today, even in Italy, they use it in so many ways. Especially since ClioMakeUp has reviewed it!It can be used to improve the condition of acne or skin skin marked by the expansion of the pores. That is why today we will discover what is and how the dermaroller works! The dermaroller is an easy accessory: it looks like a razor, only a rotating cylinder with small needles is mounted in place of the blade.  Passing it on the surfaces of ruined skin, you can use the action of the needles to treat those areas affected by imperfections such as acne! It is very simple, though it produces a slight pricking due to the passing of the micro-needles on the skin. The dermaroller has a very wide range of uses: you can use it not only to treat the skin and to make acne areas less visible, but also to stretch the stretch marks! In addition, the dermaroller also helps to make the stains of the skin slowly fade: one of the most commonly used blemishes, and even less pleasing to show off.Of course, in this as in the other cases, it is always advisable to use it in combination with the appropriate products. For example, an anti-stain face cream, such as Lichtena, is ideal when used with the derma roller and is also much easier and faster to pass! But how is this tool so simple, but so important to our beauty routine?You just have to slide it over your skin, maybe before you go to sleep! Why does the dermaroller help the skin solve its problems? The reason is because the micro-needle puncture promotes skin cell regeneration.In addition, these needles produce micro lesions that favor penetration of products like creams!But it should also be said that the action of the needles has another very positive effect: it stimulates the skin to produce collagen, or the substance responsible for  the elasticity of the epidermal tissue.The results of this small magic wand are not in question: the dermaroller really works.The only disadvantage is that not all women love to feel it rubbing their skin, but it is a necessary sacrifice!

I could not even recommend it to you: it is ideal for any skin type!Go to the Clarins official site, where you will find all the information you want (http://www.clarins.it/double-serum/

We live in a difficult world…..if it were a serious matter might seem like the beginning of the television advertising that aired years ago, which by the way was also fun.Ginevra has entered the period of the fears. Mom I’m afraid. For the dark, for an unexpected noise, for the ghosts and the Snowman.Initially I have not worried much, but now using this noun more and more often and sometimes I’m appalled because I don’t know exactly where she want to end, and above all how to calm her down and make her overcome these fears.I am the classic example scary: I’m afraid of never being at the height of things, I’m afraid to be too distracted (I’m always distractd), I’m afraid to be judged, not understood and so on. And as a mom?I only say that Ginevra is 5 years old and still sleeps with me, because I’m afraid during the night something happens.I fear that kindergarten is not secure enough, I’m afraid to get hurt, that her friends mistreat and then of the fact that if they stop us on the street and they know her name because she’s is on my social, sometimes I think: but I’m really doing the right thing?They often ask me her for fashion catalogs and it takes a lifetime to answer that most of the time is “No, thanks”.I fear above all not to be able to make her independent and autonomous.Do not touch the diseases speech because I go into crisis just thinking about it! Me and her have a special motto that we often repeat: We are strong and brave girls.But if she knew that in reality my heart trembles every time, what she would think? What you teach me mom, then if you are the first to be afraid?I try not to panic, breath and think to solve one issue at a time and not get in a hurry. What can I do, I’m not still found the perfect mother Manual, so I justify myself and tell me that I must not be perfect but a person who learns every day from small things and tries to improve with her whole being.When Ginevra tells me that she is afraid I often repeat that they must not have, but she looks at me and asks me: why should I’m not be afraid? I am breathing again and look for a simple way to explain that there is nothing to fear, for example of the dark.Maybe I turn off/on the lights showing how nothing changes and everything stays quiet with or without light. She says it’is true mom and returns to play quiet, while I look her go back and I think I actually scared shitless of the night, not to mention the thieves who continue to burgle houses in the neighborhood.But how do you today to convey serenity? I did not understand much of how can you be good parents, but surely I realized that you need a healthy ability to lie to raise a child, without depriving him of serenity.Do you think if I told her: Ginevra I am afraid of thieves! She’s not  already sleep a lot,  maybe would stop sleeping altogether.I realized that to be good parents also need to be good actors and not tell me that the children hear the lies and other things like that, because there is no manual!Good day everybody

The desire for sea increases from day to day: it is inevitable at this time! This year Ginevra and I have already been there: for more than 30 years I did not give up my week in Rimini with my mom. We will soon be leaving again, our next destination will be Sicily, have you ever been? Are you living there? Let me know as many things as possible, please! For me and Nicola was our first trip together: I, he and a bike. The direction ?All the perimeter of this wonderful island at the foot of our Italy. It was a beautiful and fun trip, it seems to me that 1000 years have passed since we could afford to sleep under the stars, but what did we care about? Now, instead, there is Ginevra: our route is scheduled, the long-awaited stay and the medium that will take us to the southernmost part of our country will be a great flight! How things change …. But what does not change is my desire to be always up to date and fashionable, especially if it’s jewelery! Do you enjoy my last purchase made online on the site of Maria Claudia Gioielli ? In the summer I like the blue much more; It reminds me of the sea, the night sky and brings me back to the sweetness of the summer adventures. Particularly this parure is part of the Blue Soul collection: Sodalite leaves and Rock crystal interpret the dark blue and the union with the madreperla blur then all in a dreamy blue. Have I been fairly clear in making you understand what I chose for my summer? And you tell me, what jewelry are you wearing? I embrace you and look forward to your answers … Ah yes, I remember that with NICHYLOVE promotion code you will get a 10% discount on the jewelery I wear. See you soon !

Per il ponte del 2 giugno, come anticipato, siamo stati a Verbania, sul Lago Maggiore, ospiti in una casa vacanze Homeaway.it  a di poco fantastica. Ad ogni mia foto postata, mi sono arrivate milioni di domande, tutti incuriositi da tanto splendore!

Ecco, senza presunzione, questo è ciò che ho provato io durante il nostro soggiorno in villa Suna a Verbania.  Siamo arrivati tutti e tre già molto entusiasti; la casa poteva ospitare sino a 6 persone e abbiamo colto l’occasione per invitare una coppia di amici con una bimba dell’età di Ginevra (in tanti mi avete chiesto se quella bimba, Allegra, fosse mia figlia: vi assicuro che se avessi avuto un’altra figlia, non l’avrei tenuto nascosto per anni!). Vi assicuro che la visione della casa ci ha lasciato letteralmente senza parole. Avevamo già sbirciato qualche foto dal sito, ma dal vivo l’impatto è stato incredibile. Organizzata in due strutture, la casa principale e la dependance, villa Suna rappresenta sicuramente l’ abitazione dei sogni per la maggior parte delle persone. La casa principale è divisa su due piani: al piano superiore vi si trovano due camere matrimoniali, un bagno, un salotto arredato in stile anni ’50 con chaise longue e cannocchiale per ammirare il paesaggio ed una cucina fornitissima dove era posta l’ormai famosissima altalena trasparente, una vera chicca. Le vetrate, pazzesche, davano la possibilità di spaziare la visuale dal Lago Maggiore alle sue tre Isole Borromee (l’Isola Madre, Dei Pescatori e L’isola Bella), sino al paese di Verbania e poi su, fino alle montagne tutto intorno. Al piano inferiore,  un’altra camera open space con un bagno, un salottino dotato di vanity e due poltrone poste vista lago. Questa enorme terza camera, ha il solo letto matrimoniale, separato da tutto il resto, posto proprio di fronte alla vetrata sul lago e un balcone in legno che si congiunge al giardino della casa e alla piscina. Tutto sistemato in modo ordinato e quasi maniacale: il giardino terrazzato, essendo la casa in collina, ma comunque ricco di vegetazione, statue e ben curato. E poi la piscina che la cui vista dava la percezione di terminare là dove iniziava il lago. La dependance, sempre tutta a vetri era composta da una stanza divisa tra zona salotto e cucina e terminava, giusto per non farsi mancare nulla, con una piccola palestra, ma ultra dotata. Ginevra ed Allegra si sono divertite tantissimo, hanno giocato, nuotato, si sono “perse” in ogni stanza della casa inventandosi le loro mille storie. Una casa a misura di famiglia e bambini. I ragazzi sabato 3 giugno sono andati a comprare il pesce, lo hanno cucinato al barbecue in giardino e poi hanno guardato una delle partite più importanti degli ultimi anni (almeno stando a quello che ci hanno detto loro, patiti di calcio)  Juventus – Real  Madrid nell’enorme proiettore che c’era nel salottino della dependance. In partenza avevamo progettato di andare a visitare un sacco di luoghi, ma la casa ci ha letteralmente stregati e abbiamo preferito goderci totalmente quanto la fortuna ha voluto offrirci. Non abbiamo comunque perso l’occasione di fare il giro del lago con una barchetta e visitare, tra le tre, la bellissima  isola dei Pescatori, dove abbiamo bevuto un aperitivo inebriati dal profumo del gelsomino che cresce ovunque. Che altro dire? Oltre a consigliarvi di visitare il lago Maggiore con il suo turismo quasi di nicchia, non posso fare altro che suggerirvi di cogliere l’opportunità di alloggiare in una casa HomeAway.it , case selezionate e curate che possono contribuire in maniera notevole a rendere la vostra vacanza indimenticabile.  A presto!

For the June 2nd holiday, as we anticipated, we stayed at Verbania on Lake Maggiore, guests at a fantastic Homeaway.it holiday home. With every photo I posted, millions of questions came to me, all curious for so much splendor!Do you know when you have the feeling of not wanting to ask anything else, why what is already offered is the top? Here this is what I tried during our stay in Villa Suna in Verbania. We’ve leave all three already very excited: the house could accommodate up to 6 people and we took the opportunity to invite a couple of friends with a baby girl from the age of Ginevra (so many asked me if that girl, Allegra, was my daughter!) I assure you that if I had another daughter, I would not have kept it hidden for years!). The house’s vision left us literally speechless. We had already peek some photos from the site, but live the impact was amazing. Organized in two structures, the main house and the dependance, Villa Suna is definitely the home of dreams for most people. The main house is divided into two floors: on the upper floor there are two double bedrooms, a bathroom, a lounge furnished in the 1950s style with a chaise longue and telescope to admire the landscape and a fully equipped kitchen where it was now the famous transparent swing, a real gem. The stained glass windows gave the opportunity to move the view from Lake Maggiore to its three Borromean Islands (l’Isola Madre, Dei Pescatori e L’isola Bella), to the country of Verbania and then up to the mountains all around. Downstairs, another open space with a bathroom, a living room with vanity and two armchair with lake view. This huge third bedroom has the only double bed, separate from everything else, right in front of the stained glass window and a wooden balcony joining the garden of the house and the pool. Everything is arranged neatly and almost maniacally. The attic, always in glass, consisted of a room divided between lounge area and kitchen, and ended, with a small but ultra-equipped gym. Ginevra and Allegra enjoyed a great deal, played, swam, lost in each room of the house inventing their thousand stories. A home for family and children. The guys on Saturday June 3 went to buy the fish, cooked it at the barbecue in the garden and then looked Juventus-Real Madrid, one of the most important games of the last few years, in the huge projector that was in the drawing-room. Before to leave we had planned to visit a lot of places, but the house literally wandered us and we preferred to enjoy totally how lucky he wanted to offer us.  However, we did not miss the opportunity to go on a boat trip and visit, the beautiful Isola dei Pescatori, where we drank something with the fragrance of jasmine growing everywhere. What else to say? Certainly to visit Lake Maggiore with its tourism and than to take the opportunity to stay in a HomeAway.it home, selected and cured homes that can greatly contribute to make your vacation unforgettable. See you soon!

And so, stronger than any forecast, faster than its hot sunlight and louder than ever, another summer came. Within a few days will also be my birthday!In fact, on the longest day of the year, I was born!My character is very similar to summer: I love light, beautiful people who laugh, sea the summer sunsets, but also those who stop to watch the stars on the beach. I have always been attracted by those who can deeply reflect, by those who have the courage to make speeches that are not the usual and trivial and who, when speaking to you, looks into your eyes.I love the real people, the one who works hard to get things, the one that can not be taken for granted; people who know how to say thanks, who know how to admit their own weaknesses and fragility.The talented people who do not ever notice, who are always ready to learn and are curious about life, those that can be noticed without having to show off.I love people who are able to be silent, people who take the lead, but never copy, putting in their own work always of his own.I love the wind in the face, the children and the one who protects them.I love people who still know how to cry, who in life seek their own balance, those who do not judge, but who know how to go beyond what is just appearance; people able to get away from the group to have a unique and personal thought.I have a weakness for those who have a dream in the drawer and then a good day is able to pull it out and make it real.I’m for people who never judge, but appreciate diversity.To those that can always put in question, who can say good to a person when he deserves it.I love design, who knows how to write well, fashion and the pursuit of beautiful, I love playing with beauty and always feel good with me.In this regard I am a maniac, a bit because I’ve been in fashion for more than 20 years now, a bit because this is just me!Do you like my new pants signed Re-Hash? Do you have a must-have for the summer?For me is the linen trouser, it must not be missing in the closets!This is the most famous model for summer 2017, in fact this summer also returns the over and elegant volumes of palace trousers, where fashion wants them to high waist. I love to wear them with an elegant vest and a heel, but also with a t-shirt and a sneaker!Cheers the summer and people who know how to love life! See you soon

Ecco perché in questi giorni ho deciso assolutamente di prendermi del tempo e di pensare solo a me stessa, sì ! Almeno per un paio d’ore! L’altra mattina sono rimasta a casa  e dopo aver fatto una bella maschera viso rilassante,  ho deciso di rifarmi il colore dei capelli. No, tranquille rimarrò bionda, quello è il mi colore, ma ho voluto renderlo più brillante e per farlo  ho scelto Olia di Garnier . Noi donne  siamo abituate a scegliere e spesso ahimè, per il quieto vivere senza far tante storie dobbiamo accontentarci, ma non questa volta! Per quale motivo ? Perchè finalmente abbiamo la possibilità di scegliere e farlo senza dover scendere a compromessi ! In che modo ? Grazie a Olia di Garnier  la nuova generazione di colori senza compromessi possiamo ottenere tutto ciò che desideriamo da una colorazione a domicilio, come ad esempio: coprire i primi capelli bianchi , ottenere un colore eccezionale senza rovinare il capello e facendolo con un prodotto che ha una formula priva di ammoniaca .  Wow! E inoltre ha un kit molto professionale fornito di tutto l’occorrente e le sue istruzioni sono molto chiare.

Mi raccomando prima di provarlo, se è la prima volta, cercate di capire se siete allergici, ma una volta testato ciò, buon divertimento! Basta applicare il prodotto sui capelli ,(per un risultato migliore il capello dovrebbero essere lavato da un paio di giorni) , poi il trattamento va  risciacquato, va applicato il  post colorazione e si conclude con uno shampoo . Un po’ di attenzione bisogna  averla per l’applicazione: partire dalle radici verso le punte muovendosi ciocca per ciocca. Nel mio caso, che ho già i capelli colorati, ho dovuto procedere prima con la copertura della ricrescita e in seguito, negli ultimi 10 minuti estendere il colore sulle lunghezze. E’ stato molto semplice usare Olia , la nuova generazione di colore senza ammoniaca : avete visto che risultato? Sono molto fiera di me stessa: riuscire a dedicarmi del tempo è un’impresa ma, a volte per fortuna non serve troppo, per sentirsi e vedersi più carini.   Un abbraccio.

We  mothers know how much time is precious! We have a thousand good intentions and before we become moms we promise that we will keep in shape, have perfect makeup and wig, look must have the season and instead? Things are a bit different in reality, is not it? That is why these days I decided to take time and to think only of myself, yes! At least for a couple of hours! The other morning I stayed home and after making a nice relaxing facial mask, I decided to refresh my hair color. No, quiet I’ll be blonde, that’s my color, but I wanted to make it brighter and to make it I chose Olia by Garnier. Do you know why I have chosen just so many products? Because it has a very professional kit, it supplies everything you need and the instructions are very clear. I recommend before trying it out, if it’s the first time, try to figure out if you’re allergic to it, but once tested it, have fun! Just apply the product on the hair (for a better result the hair should be washed for a couple of days), then the treatment should be rinsed, apply the post coloring and end with a shampoo. A little attention needs to be given to the application: from the roots to the tips, moving around to lock. In my case, that I already have colored hair, I had to proceed first with the coverage of re-growth and then, in the last 10 minutes, extend the color on the lengths. It was very easy to use Olia, the next generation of color without ammonia: did you see that result? I am very proud of myself: being able to dedicate time is a business but, sometimes, fortunately, it does not take too much, to feel and to be more beautiful. A hug.

Five years is a very important age, do you remember it? I’m not sure! I just had some flash of that time,which did not really have time. But if I look at Geneva, I try to imagine myself and smile.I wonder if I was never stopped like her, if I was capricious and stubborn, if like her, I never accepted a NO!Of course I know I was sleeping in my bed at five, I was used to sharing everything because I was living in a house with four other children who were my brothers,while the girl has everything for her: Attention, cuddles, instant responses to everything she need, space in the house, games, good things to eat.But sometimes I wonder if have everything and so much, it’s good or not…….For now I know that Ginevra is already 5 years old!And that she is living completely immersed in her world, made of dolls, where pink is reigning everywhere, where the girls are all her friends, while the boys not.She lives immersed in her world where she can say everything that comes to mind with an absolute truth, where a song she likes can trigger an explosive dance everywhere and she can turn into a singer;going to sleep is always a problem, but then getting up in the morning becomes the saddest thing in the world.Her world is made of afternoons outdoors or to color with the brushes or to the park.I look at her and often I think that I hope she stay so careless and cheerful, stubborn and intuitive.For her birthday we will have two parties: one with the parents to dinner outside and the other at the park with her friends!For dinner I decided to dress her with a total look signed Sarabanda, a brand that is getting more and more home and then because it develops a very fun collection where I can find a little bit of everything: from the elegant dresses to the more ones sports.I do not know where you are from, but in Vicenza I have influenced many friends and they are all very happy to dress their children with this brand!I hug you and soon.
