Grateful for all the people that helped me through this journey.

I have to send a lot of love to my parents that support me throughout one of my best life experience. My first time meeting God!

Enjoy few photos but don’t miss my youtube video.

Stay tuned, more things coming soon.

Hello, hello world, it’s a while I don’t stay put and write something on my blog, but here I am, and this post is not about Vermeer’s painting called “Girl with a Red Hat” but about me :). Even though I love Vermeer’s masterpieces, my favorite from all “The Girl with a Pearl Earring”, ( just to stay in theme with jewelry :))) mom and dad being jewelry designers), and thankfully sometimes take time to teaches me lot of things including art, I will go the easy way and talk to you about all the crazy beautifully things that happens this days. From Valentine’s Day to the Carnival I really enjoyed each and every moment. So a red hat and a Venetian Carnival mask should be enough to symbolize super cute events in our life. While you all know a lot about Valentine’s Day here I found some interesting things and stories about the significance of the Venetian Masks.

So “The Girl with A Red Hat” is about me just taking a walk in my beautiful city of Florence, taking pictures for my blog and for you. All this now that the weather allow us to enjoy some nice days after long and hard winter. But from now on days are longer and places to visit in my beautiful country are a lot so, who knows, Mother’s Day or Father’s Day could be a good excuse to make a little trip and get to see new places. But let me tell you a secret, on 19th of March mom and dad will celebrate one year of marriage   even if they’ve been together for the past 11 years. Decided to get married only last year on Father’s Day. Do you want to see them?

So I am looking for an idea to celebrate them and surprise them with something special.

Till then send you all the love hopping you enjoyed  “The Girl with A Red Hat”!!!

So here we are, just a day more and it’s finally Christmas!

It’s my favorite time of the year as the colors, the sounds, the smell are all so great and different. Hope Santa will be kind with me, and just in case I’ve done something wrong, hope he will forgive me. It was really an amazing year, full of joy and happiness. My parents got married, a moment I will cherish forever, I got to travel and see amazing places like, made my first caribbean cruise, learn to swim like a pro, and also just a few days ago I’ve made my first confession in front of God. What a feeling! I dropped a few tears, but on the other hand it’s something natural, this mix emotions excited and scared me at the same time. So now I’m happy to celebrate Christmas waiting for Baby Jesus with my heart pure and full of hope.

Hope for all us to have a better life and all the bad things in the world just magically disappear!

This is the most important gift Santa should let us under the tree!

And because it’s Christmas, let’s just talk about joyful things. Like this photo shooting I’ve made with my dear Kamille! Isn’t she adorable!? She pose like a pro, it’s super fluffy and she likes biscuits and salmon.

In case you are wondering, Kamille is not mine. She belongs to Bastiana and Michele, the cute couple owner of  the Fotografik store in Florence. You can find them here making:

They prepared a nice and warm Christmas atmosphere where me and Kamille immortalized our sweet faces.

So what can I say more! Enjoy this moments at maximum and I wish you from the bottom of my heart JOY AND HAPPINESS FOR YOU ALL AND YOUR FAMILIES!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Sometimes you find yourself in places that gets under your skin and never let you go…

Sometimes you can see the movie from a different prospective…

Sometimes you feel like home…

Sometimes you see life in million colors….

Sometimes your steps takes you to unknown places…

Sometimes it makes you turn and look back…..

Sometimes takes you to places full of poetry…

Sometimes just let you enjoy the ride…

Sometimes you are just a viewer…

Sometimes makes you look with hope to the future…

Sometimes take your breath…

But mostly you are the protagonist…

So what are you waiting for? PLAY!!! Play the role of your life! You are the only one that can do this!

My prayers will go to all the families that lost their loved ones, their belongings and their homes.

“There is a garden in every childhood, an enchanted place where colors are brighter, the air softer, and the morning more fragrant than ever again” – Elizabeth Lawrence

You know, I am grateful for every moment I spend outside playing, laughing, running, enjoying the surroundings. Specially if I get to do this with my mom and dad. Often they are so busy and I get to see them just a few hours a day. I am so proud of them running their amazing business of jewelry. So every time a had a chance I where them pieces also. Like this ones, essentials bracelet and necklace that both women and girls can wear. I share jewelry with my mom and I am so happy that often we just hang out with the same pieces.

So if you want to know more about my mom and dad brand MILTON-FIRENZE just go to this link and visit there website:

Did you find your?

Till next time!

You notice right!? I am more then happy. And the reason is very simple. Give me a pool, specially with no other around, and I’m the happiest person in the world. I love to swim so summer is my favorite season. This time however I found not only a nice place where to exercise my abilities, but I found a real paradise.

I enjoy talking to you about this as I am so proud about my Italy. This time I will take you to the South of Italy. My father’s roots came from this amazing place called Puglia. Each and every piece of my beautiful country is unique and special, but in my heart I will always keep in a special part all the gorgeous moments I spend here.

Happened that in this summer, for two times in a row, we stayed to the same hotel called Villaggio San Giovanni, a luxurious place that keeps the atmosphere and perfume of old times. In fact, the place used to be a feudal manor farm, now a gorgeous structure for unforgettable vacation, wedding celebration or any other important event in your life.

To the following link  you can find detailed information. I will resume myself to publish some pictures I get the chance to do here:

Amazing pool and surroundings:

Magic atmosphere:

Curated details:

Villaggio San Giovanni is just the best hotel where you can spend time with yourself and forget about all negativity and stress that might torment you.

Do not think that even I am only 8 years old I do not have my own troubles. Third grade was really tough, I have lot of homework during this vacation, so even me need some time for relaxing and recharge the batteries. 🙂

And just in case you were wondering where I bought this gorgeous swimsuit, here you can find the direct link to BONPRIX ONLINE STORE for a nice SHOPPING experience:

Miami is a dream! Seems like you are in a continuos vacation. So you can imagine first thing I start dreaming is moving here in the future. 🙂

I got to hear from a lot of people in the area that they just love Italy, Tuscany and the country side. Instead me I was just thinking what could I do to extend my stay in this amazing city.

For sure my daydreaming and desire of permanency in this Paradise was increased by our accommodation. The gorgeous The Palms Hotel & SPA.

I don’t think I need to add more… I just say that was one of the most pleasant stay in a hotel, inside and outside everything is just perfect, and the most incredible thing is that you feel you have a lot of privacy while spending time inside the hotel garden enjoying the pool, but in case you are a beach lover, a beautiful path is taking you to an exquisite private beach.

And after hours admiring the beauty of this place, I discovered them! 🙂 We become friends immediately!

I highly recommend this place to everybody that arrives to Miami looking for a place where to spend at its best the days in an incredible atmosphere.

Happy Holidays! Till next time!

Would love hear from you and specially that you share with me places worth seeing during summer vacation!

Even if the day start with a cloudy sky that made me wonder if it’s worth getting off the cruise ship and go to the beach, the rest of the day was just perfect.

I must say that I am a little envy with my dad because he just need few rays of sun and he became tanned.

I have my mom skin and even after lot of time spent under the sun I only catch some color and nothing more.

But I feel to say just be careful because even on a cloudy day, the Caribbean sun burns without you even notice.

Hope soon to be able to go back to the Bahamas and for sure I won’t miss this amazing place everyone talked about. I only could see it from far away, but for sure is a destination to be considered for the future.

The local people say that is the best place to spend time with family. There are a lot of choices for having fun and spend the days in an unique way.

I am talking about The ATLANTIS. You can find all information at the following link http://www.atlantisbahamas.com

Happy trip! Hope you all have great Vacation and share with me places worth visiting!
