It's always in my mind

Lately, I have been reminiscing a lot about Italy ...basically remembering all the places we have visited during our fabulous journey on Italian soil. Not only the food and wine and the architecture but the vibe, the colors and that endless thirsty for life and joyful days.

Today I want to pay homage to this place where we planted seeds of happiness, friendship, camaraderie and on top of all hope for better days.

Happy Mother's Day to all moms out there

I am slowly getting back to business after the fabulous, fun but exhausting CYS Cruise.  It was totally worthy and pictures will be posted here soon.

I want to celebrate Mother's Day with a few more designs spotlighting big focal heart pieces to emulate all the unconditional love that only mothers are capable to offer without expectation.

If you are a mother, Happy Mother's Day to you, and if you are a kind of mother or act like a big mother with all the people who surrounds your day to day life Happy Mother's Day to you, too.

Thanks mom!

Obrigado maeinha e bencao!
