Anna da Re 8 luglio

Yesterday I spent a couple of hours in the apparently easy operation of buying a new fan. I say apparently because I soon discovered that most of the electric apparel stores had run out of fans… which irritated me very much, since it’s true that is very very very hot, but it is July and it is supposed to be hot and people are supposed to be buying fans… am I wrong?

Anyway one of the consequences of this, apart from arriving at home quite late and quite tired, is that I dismantled my selfie set. And this morning I had to go out very early so I couldn’t really rebuild it. No selfie then!

So the picture you see has been made by my friend Monica whom I had lunch with. I am wearing a pair of trousers/skirt, that I noticed in the fashion magazines are called culottes: I bought them in Livorno last week-end and I like them. I think I am becoming a fan of culottes! They are pitch black so I needed something white to go along. A simple white T-shirt would have been perfect, but I think also this pretty little shirt, which I have had for years (I remember I bought it in Bergamo, I used to go there to visit some friends who lived there, who knows how many years ago). The sandals are the ones by Marco, and the bag comes from Siena or Volterra: very pretty but incredibly uncomfortable! By the way, if anyone have an idea of where to buy a simple straw bag in Milano, or in Livorno, please tell me, or write me!

Have a nice day!

    Non sapevo si chiamassero anche culotte! In quale negozio mi consiglieresti di andare.? Ne ho girati in po in questi giorni a Milano ma niente di fatto. So che vanno le fantasie, ma io sarei più per un paio tinta unita.

      ciao, scusa se ti rispondo in ritardo. Io ne ho viste di carine da Zara e da Cos, ma a dirti la verità ho avuto pochissimo tempo e girato molto poco… anche per via del caldo! Comunque sono d’accordo con te, meglio tinta unita. Buona caccia!
