WHITE WEDNESDAY # 8


Che bello, siamo già a mercoledì... che mi piace non solo per il White Wednesday, ma anche perchè è proprio nel bel mezzo della settimana. Una volta arrivati a mercoledì la settimana lavorativa non pouò che andare verso il suo consueto tramonto, dal momento che non lavoro il sabato.

Tanto per iniziare seriamente questo White Wednesday, mettiamoci comode...
***
I'm so glad it's already Wednesday. I love Wednesdays not only for our weekly appointment but also because Wednesday is right in the middle of my working week. Once Wednesday is over, then the rest of my working week is nearly over. LOL!
And now gals, to start our WW properly let's make ourselves comfy...

YYY
Via le scarpe, un bel paio dei calzini color crema tornano proprio comodi...
***
let's get rid of our shoes. A pair of cream socks can turn in very handy...
YYY
Versiamoci una tazza di thè caldo e, perchè no, viziamoci con una buona fetta di torta fatta in casa ...
Let's pour ourselves a warm cup of tea and, why not, let's even spoil ourselves with some homemade cake (who cares about calories on Wednesdays????????)...
YYY

Per creare l'atmosfera giusta accendiamo una candela profumata...
ora tutto è biancamente perfetto per il nostro "WW"
***
and to create the right atmosphere let's lit a white scented candle...
now I guess it's all soooooo "whitely" ready to start enjoying our WW
YYY
Gironzolando per negozi alla ricerca di un regalo per una amica, ho visto questo delizioso coniglietto da giardino. Coon la mia faccia di tolla, ho chiesto al negoziante di poter scattare una foto per "mostrarlo ad un'amica" ed ecco come è approdato nel mio WW (le bugie bianche sono ammesse nei Mercoledì Bianchi, no???). Carino,che ne dite?
***
while browsing around for a gift i saw this lovely garden bunny. asked the shop owner to take a pic to "show it to a friend" (WHITE lies are allowed on White Wednesdays, aren't they?) and that's how it landed on my WW post. Isn't it a cutie?
YYY
ed ancora cloche e rose color avorio
***
and more cloches and cream silk roses
YYY
YYY
Nel riordinare gli armadi ho ritrovato con grande piacere di mamma le scarpine indossate da mia figlia per il battesimo. Naturalmente anche queste bianche
***
While tiding up my wardrobes, with great motherly pleasure I found the wee little white shoes my daughter wore for her Christening. They are so precious to me and she was also happy to see how much cherished they still are and always will be

I GUANTI INDOSSATI PER IL MIO MATRIMONIO BEN16 ANNI FA...

AND NOW MY IVORY WHITE SILK GLOVES I WORE ON MY WEDDING DAY 16 YERS AGO.
TIME DOES FLY BY!

Questo meraviglioso luccicante bordo di perle e perline apparteneva ad un vecchio vestito che chiameremo ora vintage, ma in realtà era uno di tanti vestiti di gran classe di mia zia, risalente agli anni 50. del vestito, ingiallito ed infeltrito è rimasto ora il bordo. E' stato bello averlo conservare ed attendo soltanto l'abito giusto per potergli far rivivere la sua pristina gloria.

This wonderful glittery beadwork trim used to belong to an old dress which we would now call vintage but which actually was one of my wealthy aunt's very many extremely classy outfits dating back in the 50's.
The dress had to be thrown away as the white had turned into yellow and the wool had thickened.
I'm glad I saved the trim though, and I'm waiting for the right dress to sew it on.
YYY
This all is for this WW gals.
It's midnight now, so just in time for it to be a WW instead of a WT.
better go walk the dog out and get some sleep.
Happy blogging!
Bisous
Y Rita

  10. I love the cable knit socks and baby booties. I'm so glad you came over to muse a bit. My SIL lived in Italy for years before returning to the US. She loved it there. I have always wanted to visit there. Someday . . .

  14. Hola Rita,
    Love your post... So creatively written. Thank you for sharing all your pretty whites with us. Oh! And my hubby and I have also been married for 16 years. We got married on May 22, 1993...happiest day of my life, right next to the birth of our daughter ofcourse :-) When is your anniversary? Thank you again for sharing my friend. Until next time. Have a wonderful weekend.

    Besitos,
    ♥Ana

  15. Rita dear!!! How lovely to see you come by again. It means a lot to me that you enjoy my blog, but most of all, your friendship is so dear. I love blogging and I am constantly thinking about what I will post next. My husband and I want to write professionally, and blogging for us has been an important tool to get us to write on a regular basis. If I had more time and a good camera AND photobucket, I would have even better photos. I try my best to find images that evoke my thoughts. My sister-in-law Nancy at Fete et Fleur has a gift for photography. You must visit her; her photos emulate the emotion I feel on my blog. But thank you so much for your comments. I am a teacher and even though I have conferences tonight and tommorow, I will be home from Wed. to Friday so I am thinking of doing a quick PINK UPDATE on my little dressing table with a quick Thanksgiving greeting. So, stay tuned!

    I bid you a wonderful evening in beautiful Italy! Bonne nuit cherie, Anita

    I Love, Love your White Wednesday post. The little shoes are TDF (to die for)! Thank you for your sweet comment about my cottage collection. I've heard apartments are smaller in Europe, you told me yours is small but I know it's filled with wonderful treasures. Lisa
    PS I just changed my font for my blog & it is yours! I just used it for titles & sidebar stuff, I was afraid for posts using it too would slow down my site. Have you had any trouble?

  19. Ciao Rita~ I am so happy to have found your blog. Not only am I Rita, but I am also 46 years of age. I love being the daughter of two old Italian-speaking parents and am proud of my heritage. My papa used to paint cathedrals in southern Italy. I have a blog post of his work. I love that we have similar interests in shabby and would love to stay in touch. Come over to visit and click the "follow" & "subscribe" button so that we can visit one another more often.

  20. Bonjour Rita! I really enjoyed this beautiful White Wednesday post - especially your white satin wedding gloves!
    I'm still in the US sorting through everything and ready to head back home to France with my honey - this is his first Thanksgiving in the US. I know it is not celebrated in Europe but I'd still like to say I am thankful to have met you and consider you a very special blogger friend!
