Local La Bella Vita in an unlikely place

Two weeks ago, I visited Wisconsin with a group of friends and made a stop in the Mars Cheese Castle. The last thing I expected to find was a unique piece of "la bella vita!" Below is the fabulous bottle of olive oil I purchased at a cheese retailer in the Midwest. 


An olive oil bottle in the shape of the Italian boot!

We can all learn a fun lesson: when traveling keep your eyes open, you never know where you will find la bella vita!

Venetian Dreams


While I studied abroad in Rome, my family is actually from a small town in the Veneto region, a few hours outside Venice. The 2013 Venice Film Festival (more on that later) is in full swing, and led me to reflect on the city's rich history and beauty. I hope someday I can explore La Serenissima for more than a few hours on my last day in Italy!

Like the rest of Italy, Venice is structurally magnificent. Photos such as those below, found via Polyvore, are a great way to add some bella vita to your home or office!

Inspired by Italy


Italy, its culture, history and people are always a source of inspiration for fashion, home decor and beauty products. Party beads, home goods, to luxurious clothing, anyone can bring more la bella vita to their world. My personal favorite item is the hand painted Italian owl mug!
