Etsy Picks of the Week - Barefoot Contessa

Are you planning a vacation this year? I'm always dreaming about taking off ...this image, that I've kept in my clippings folder for years, reminds me of the young girl I was, who couldn't wait to travel the big wide world, to visit monuments and city squares, to be independent and free and as chic as this girl in her little black dress and simple chignon! ... oh to dream!!
...its a lovely image and I still adore it today.

Thus far .. no vaca, but we do have mini-get-aways .. just came back to New York from visiting the White House in Washington DC (USA). I haven't been to Paris yet (it's on my to-go-to list!!!), last year we went to Spain and Italy.
