The Ladybug’s outfit for a shopping day (the only one!) in Sicily

I must confess that when I am on holiday in Sicily I bring with me super light suitcase: only swimsuits, flip flops, sun creams, sundresses, running shoes and clothes and maybe a dress or two in case I decide to do something different that going to the beach, running or relaxing at home. This is my real way to relax: I go out and do things eleven months a year and when I am on holiday I go in a total relax mood that doesn’t need any makeup or heeled shoes and dressing up.

There are just two occasions when I need to get dressed properly during my summer holidays: my birthday party and a last summer sales session at home usually with my sister in our favorite shops in town.

This is when we made this little shooting during a little break in our shopping session!

I wore a Mango dark orange tunic dress with an handmade African knotted headband handmade by Madame Ilary with an old African fabric that I had at home (it was an envelope bag for an Asos Africa dress that I bought many years ago!), Nike for & Other Stories white sneakers (the only pair of shoes that I brought with me!), Valentino round frames and Miu Miu bag.

I’ve been told by a girl in a shop that I looked like a 60’s girl…best compliment of the day!

The Ladybug in the sunflowers’ field

Every time that I go to Senigallia for the Summer Jamboree Festival I can’t resist the temptation to take some pictures in the immense sunflower fields in the area. I did it two years ago and I did it again this summer, the morning I left Senigallia to go back home.

I was wearing my new H&M printed jumpsuit that I bought during the summer sales even if it wasn’t on sale just because a) I am a huge fan of 80’s inspired jumpsuits b) I couldn’t resist the animal print in a colored green and pink version c) I was sure that this wouldn’t fit properly but it did and I was too happy to let it go!

I made it sporty by wearing Nike for & Other Stories white sneakers and I made it vintage (although it has already a vintage twist!) by adding vintage sunglasses by Punti di Vista and my beloved vintage bag from Vintage Galerija in Ljubljana.

The Ladybug’s vintage tee for a casual Sunday brunch

Since I live in Milan, one of the things that I do most is spending Sunday mornings having brunch with my friends.

I often don’t have enough time during the week to have a good talk and an aperitif with them, but a Sunday brunch is perfect to enjoy good food and good company and Milan is full of great places to spend a lovely, lazy Sunday morning and to have a proper brunch!

This time the choice was California Bakery (who can resist its bagels and pancakes? Not me!) but I asked my friend to take a few shots of me as I was wearing a very causal outfit with a vintage piece that I adore!

The piece is this Rolling Stones concert tee that I got for 3 quid in a charity shop in London a few years ago and that I paired with a 70’s inspired Zara denim buttoned mini skirt.

I added a Michael Kors bucket bag, Nike for & Other Stories white sneakers (I almost live with them on my feet even if it took me ages to buy a pair of white sneakers!!) and Valentino round sunnies.
