Hothouse Floral

Just got my hair cut for our vacation on saturday  at the Italian Riviera. We are staying at the same hotel in Savona and i decided to do navy as my base color and add chambray and pink as my accent.
My clothes include lots of prints this time and i am excited to use my new things:)
The citrus and the peony print will be perfect for Italy!

I will do a packing post in the next days. The weather is really cool here right now and I think even in the part of Italy where we are going it is not too warm.
My girls would like to swim in the ocean and i am not sure if it will be warm enough for that.
Hopefully the pool will be heated:)

Gigi,in case you are reading this my VPS tracked another citrus shirt for me and sent it to my US address.He refunded the other one and I don't have to return it.
The new one I got at 50% off and hopefully it doesnt have holes:)



Have a great day!

Review - thistle print boyshirt,Bamboula for JC striped market tote and caftan tunic in cove paisley!

Yesterday my husband came back from the US.He brought some things that i ordered to a friends house.
I was happy with the products itsself,but i had a wrong size and a ripped shirt included. 

First item that got a lot of hype on the JCA blog is the thistle print shirt.
It was almost sold out or on backorder instantly.
I decided for the peony color,since i have lots of blue things already.
After hearing the mesurement from the online SA,i decided to size up to a 2 instead of my usual 0.
When i unwrapped my shirt yesterday it was a 0 anyway:)
So glad it fit,even though the 2 would have given me a little more room and length.
It is very soft and the colors are lovely,like a candy pink and a flame.

colors true to life




on me-rounded hem



with a Zara boxclutch


Next item is the Bamboula for JC market tote.When i saw this i thought it would be great for the beach in Italy.
It is expensive for a sisal tote,esp. because it was excluded from the promo.
I got it anyway because of the stripes.
The quality and the color is nice,i just would have love an inside pocket.





on me-it is not made for over the shoulders



easier to carry like this


The shrunken fishermans sweater is from the JCA exchange and goes perfect with the tote.




Third item from the order was the caftan tunic in cove paisley. When i ordered it i asked for the chest measurements for xxs and it is 50(it is ginormous).
I still looks nice over the navy suit,but it is very loose.

you can see how big the xxs is 

The citrus print shirt was a WWFY,because the 0 was to small.
It fits better,but this morning i have dicovered 3 huge rips in the material.
I will see what my VPS will tell me to do.



What do you think of my picks?

Did you get any of these too?

Have a great weekend and Mothers Day!!!
