Autumn - Winter R.O Collection 2011

After a week of living inside my imagination.. tried to figure out which designs are best for this season. Finally the dresses took shape and here are the latest collection from Ritney Ogez. The material is elastane jersey... you may want to wear them with leggin underneath the dress or skinny jeans.
I think these are my last project for the time being. I already packed my sewing tools and stuff in a box to keep. I don't know if I can bring them with me or not.
Me and my husband.. we plan to go on travelling again after 5 years living in Bologna Italy. We'll go to Tenerife Island in Spain. We might stay for a month or even more if we like the place.
Next time I post something I'll try to write about our new environment. Hopefully I can do my sewing aswell there otherwise... would be sad ;'(

Venice Italy

Piazza San Marco
My long- lost- girlfriend finally came to visit me in Bologna Italy. She stayed with us in Bologna and the following day we went to Venice... which takes 2 hours with the local train. At first I was worried where I supposed to take her once we arrive in Venice bcoz my husband took me there 5 years ago. Practically I didn't remember a thing. My husband gave me a Venice map... as if I could read the map?! He told me to bring the guide book aswell... as if like I would carry around that super thick book with me?!
When we arrived... around mid day..miraculously I knew what I'm doing. We took the water bus straight away (cost 6.50 euro/p) to San Marco. Along the way... we saw many beautiful Venetian things. We took pictures.... admiring many buildings... Fantastic!.
Arriving in San Marco.. we still fresh. We took pictures again...(stop for gelato in between) that day was all about taking photos. From San Marco... we started to walk back toward the train station. Along the way we stoped in Academia... we didn't get in though. Taking pictures... had slice of Pizza.. went aswell to Ponte Rialto.. to check the market.. full of souvenirs typical Venetian.
My girlfriend bought a Venetian Plate for her mother. I bought a set of wine glass as a wedding gift for my friend.
We arrived in the train station to early for our train. So we sat down in the bar for merenda (afternoon tea / snack). Likely there was a free wifi in the bar so we didn't get bored at all.
We arrived back in Bologna around 8pm.. safe..tired and happy.
