And voilà: 01.01.2017
First of all I think that I have passed one of the BEST New Year's Eve: hand made romantic dinner for two, next to the stove, watching the Montecarlo Circus on TV. I looooove watching the Circus on the 31st, it's like a tradition. And then series marathon. I live in the mountains and every year I was dreaming of elegant shiny dresses, but the only thing I could wear was a thick coat. For one reason or another it was always super cold on new year's eve. So this year the warmness and cozyness of my house seduced me.
Before deciding to stay at home I had another plan: a small walk through the mountains. In this case the outfit would have been this one: total white, with a warm bomber-coat, and the magic detail of the tiara (since I received it for my b-day, every occasion is right to wear it)

 

"Non è tutto oro quello che luccica".
Today my title is an Italian expression that means that not everything that looks wonderful (like gold), it actually is so.
The site of the shooting is Balos, located in the occidental part of Crete. The place is like Heaven... BUT... there are many but. First of all to reach the place you have to drive 10 km in a really tragic and dangerous street (dirt road), approximately 1 hour. Than after that, you have to walk for two kilometers under the heat of the sun (45 degrees at least). Plus, the day that I went, was so windy that I couldn't even put the umbrella, and the sand was hitting my body like small shots. Thank God I had a sheet to cover myself from the sun and from the sand. But the place worth it!!!
My outfit is a petticoat that I turned into a dress, with a belt. I fixed on it also the flowers that I got in Matala...if you remember...


"Non è tutto oro quello che luccica". Oggi cominciamo con un detto.
Il posto in questione è Balos nella Creta occidentale. L'ambiente è davvero paradisiaco...MA...ci sono molti ma. Prima di tutto per raggiungerlo bisogna affrontare 10 km di strada sterrata e pericolosa, percorribili approssimativamente in un'ora. Dopodichè ci sono 2 km a piedi sotto il sole cocente (almeno 45 gradi). In più il giorno che sono andata era molto ventoso, talmente tanto che era impossibile piantare l'ombrellone, e la sabbia mi colpiva il corpo come una raffica di mitra. Grazie al cielo avevo un lenzuolo che mi ha protetta da sole e sabbia. Però per il posto ne è valsa la pena!!!
Il mio outfit è una sottoveste che ho trasformato in vestitino grazie ad una cintura. Ci ho fissato anche i fiorellini presi a Matala...se vi ricordate...
