Your daughter is very cute already without her cape and hat.
Anyway, looking at your recent pictures, I wonder what is it like for the Italian to live in England, lets say aesthetically? Difficult question... you dont have to answer.

to Magda (bohemian girl): in few words: fascinating...I found beauty in less obvious things.
but yours is a very interesting question...mumble mumble...

alessandra said...

to fanja: you should have seen her face, beautiful...but I didn't have the courage to snatch a picture she looked so fragile and i got "embarassed" by her beauty!

Je retiens l'idée de la ceinture autour du manteau et les derbies de cette dame, très chic en effet !
Je regarde moi aussi souvent les dames et leurs tenues (et leurs bonnets souvent triotés main, j'avoue !)mais je n'ai jamais osé les prendre en photo et je trouve celle ci vraiment extra !

ooooh, glamorous at Cambridge station! You should definitely come shopping in Norwich, it's a bit better than old Cambo for indpendent little shops and there's this fantastic junk shop I was walking round yesterday thinking 'Alessandra would like this...' xx

This is a wonderful post - photos of London, and that wonderful old woman. There is something about her outfit and posture that project warmth, great liveliness, and humor. Thanks for that! and happy weekend too... xo, j.

What a great old lady! Personally, as an Italian, I found the UK in general and London in particular rather beautiful:)!

The little old lady is adorable. I went to Holland last summer and took a photo (unbeknownst) of a little old lady carrying a miniature windmill for her garden. It was just too cute to pass up :)
