coming to america...

Tomorrow starts the kick off of NY fashion week and while many designers will be debuting their new digs only Gucci will be debuting this, the new fiat 500 by Gucci!  It debuted in Europe a few months ago and now will be debuted in the U.S. this week during fashion week.  Its scheduled to be on the streets of America by December!  I fell in love with these cars when I was in Italy last year and now I want one even more!...  It comes in black or white, convertible or hatchback and its all decked out in the signature Gucci logo with green and red stripe.  Aren't those seat belts so cute?  

Next to my "dream car" in Catania, Sicily.

wishing i was here...

Since I'm stuck here in town this holiday weekend and it is unbearably hot I find myself wishing I was here again on the beaches of Taormina, Sicily as I was a year ago.  We found this great beach that we pretty much had all to ourselves.  We had lunch at this little beach side cafe that had the cutest umbrellas and enjoyed a cold Peroni and delicious panini.  Of course the day was ended with gelato!  Now if only I can go back in time.  Hmm maybe if I eat some gelato...  

Happy labor day weekend!
