Sandwiches, cupcakes and champagne: the perfect menu for a bad cook like me




DMJ jeans
T-shirt from Gabby of Gipsy Diaries
MOTIVI jacket
CESARE PACIOTTI shoes
TIFFANY&Co. bracelet with charms
CHRISTIAN DIOR earrings
Pearls bracelet
VETROFUSO ring

Being completely denied in the kitchen but still wanting to make a quick but impressive lunch, I decided to focus on delicious sandwiches and fun cupcakes, all accompanied by a glass of champagne. Despite the simplicity of the menu I was still able to combine a disaster: I dropped the bottle of the dye that I was using for the cupcakes’ icing. Can you imagine the stickiness degree of the kitchen floor?!

Quickly flying on this little inconvenience, move on to my look. Of course I opted for a simple outfit with a bon ton touch given by the Paciotti shoes with little bows. The amazing t-shirt I'm wearing is a gift from Gabby of Gipsy Diaries, which I suggest you to check out to find all the other great models. The jeans are a courtesy of DMJ - Do My Jeans that gives the possibility to create your own custom jeans from fabric, washing and model to the smallest details such as loops, buttons and closures. In short, the jeans made for you really exists, just clicking here.

________________________________________________________________________

Essendo completamente negata ai fornelli ma volendo comunque preparare un pranzo veloce ma di effetto, ho deciso di puntare su sfiziosi tramezzini e divertenti cupcakes, il tutto accompagnato da un buon bicchiere di champagne. Nonostante la semplicità del menù sono comunque riuscita a combinare un disastro: ho fatto cadere la bottiglietta di colorante che stavo usando per la glassa dei cupcakes. Riuscite ad immaginare il grado di appiccicosità del pavimento della cucina?!

Sorvolando velocemente su questo piccolo inconveniente passiamo al mio look. Ovviamente ho optato per un outfit semplice con un tocco bon ton dato dalle scarpe con i fiocchetti di Paciotti. La divertente t-shirt che indosso mi è stata regalata da Gabby di Gipsy Diaries, che vi consiglio di visitare per scoprire anche tutti gli altri fantastici modelli. I jeans sono invece un gentile omaggio di DMJ – Do My Jeans che dà la possibilità di creare i propri jeans personalizzati a partire dal tessuto, dal lavaggio e dal modello per finire con i più piccoli dettagli come passanti, bottoni e chiusure. Insomma il jeans fatto apposta per voi esiste davvero, basta cliccare qui.

denise said...

Gusti raffinati anche in cucina ;)

denise said...

senti,ma i cupcakes li hai fatti tu?come hai fatto?No,perchè devi sapere che sono una frana in cucina e sto cercando di apprendere più cose possibili :D

La piccola romanza. said...

"Sandwich e champagne" mi piace tanto come menù pre-shopping: prendo nota!

MELISSA Z. said...

Vi ringrazio davvero molto ragazze! Vi consiglio di provare a fare i cupcakes: oltre ad essere deliziosi potrete divertirvi a decorarli secondo la vostra fantasia!

@denise: anch'io sono una pessima cuoca!! Comunque la ricetta l'ho presa da qui http://www.alice.tv/blog/csabadallazorza/ Mia madre mi ha fatto conoscre Csaba e devo dire che ne sono rimasta affascinata anch'io che, come ti ripeto, non ho una forte passione per la cucina!

Sassy said...

Che carina che sei mentre ti gusti quell'invitante dolcetto ^^.

You are fantastic!I love your t-shirt, it is absolutely amazing! And those cupcakes look so delicious!

Maraa said...

la t-shirt è fighissima, me la compro anche io!Come al solito: ottimo lavoro! bellissimo lo smalto, è quel rosso un pò retrò che mi fa impazzire! gorgeus anche il tuo post precedente, che non ho avuto il tempo di commentare... qui c'è un freddo! penso che prima di potermi mettere un top così passeranno diverse lune (scrivo dall'alluvionata verona, ps io abito verso il lago di garda, e qui non ci sono state ripercussioni, ma ad una trentina di chilometri.... Soave è bellissima, se ti capita di girare da queste parti passaci!)
