\"DSC_0003\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Exactly one year ago, thinking about all the things that happened to me in 2010<\/a> I couldn’t stop smiling, realizing that was a year which couldn’t be beated.. 2011 was instead the year of best experiences, the one which gave me the strongest emotions and which made me travel in places I had never seen before.
\nDuring 2011 I was on the catwalk of Alberta Ferretti fashionshow, I took part for the first time into the 4 world fashionweeks in February and September (New York, London, Milan and Paris), I received the Bloglovin’ Award prize as \u201dNewcomer of the Year\u201d.
\nI was one of the testimonials for Hogan fall\/winter 2011 campaign, I talked about my experience as a blogger at the Bocconi fashion management master, I collaborated with the brand Yamamay for their contest “You’re The Queen” (and in 2012 you will also see the next collaboration with the brand), I was one of the 7 blogger of the Mango contest (even If I didn’t win), I was guest again at Pennyblack for Milan Vogue Fashion’s Night Out, and I also hosted other events, like the Dior Addict night, Furla night, Mango night and L’inde Le Palais night.
\nFor the first time in my life I experienced the emotion of the red carpet, walking at Cannes Film Festival in May and then twice in Venice in September for two different premieres: I can’t explain you the sensation, especially the first time.
\nMy shoe collection grew a lot and reached my first goal: more than 1000 sold pairs, starting to be sold also in stores outside Italy. For the first time I was a radio guest speaker, and for my favourite one, Radio Deejay, in two different occasions: first with Platinette and then with Linus and Nicola.
\nMy collaboration with the weekly A magazine has continued during 2011 (and It’s still continuing): in September my 50th article was published, another important goal for me.
\nWith Andy and Carolina I started Werelse project, and you’ll see all the news about is soon (are you ready?).
\nEverything looks like it’s going right with Richi: after graduating in April he started to work with me and The Blonde Salad even harder, following also some other web projects (among them Werelse). It feels so good to share so many passions and projects.
\n2011 was the year of travels, mainly business travels, I took 38 planes in total: I was invited to Las Vegas to visit the city, to Paris for Kenzo, Dior and Louis Vuitton, to Barcelona for Mango, to Tokyo for Vogue Fashion’s Night Out and to Shanghai for Elite Models Management. I also visited for the first time Istanbul and Dubai, but these were holiday travels \ud83d\ude42
\nUniversity went slowly compared to the years I wasn’t working: I managed to do less exams than the last years. Fortunately there are not a lot missing and I hope to be able to finish in 2012.
\nThe Blonde Salad crew grew up as well: in addition to Richi also Angelo and Claire arrived, and they help me shooting photos, for travels, plannings, contacts and advertisement, so I can dedicate myself to the blog posts.
\nMy family is always near me: recently my mum opened a travel blog<\/a>, guess where I got this passion from..
\nOur new flat we have had since the end of August is finally ready: we only have to get the terrace done before a virtual tour for you. It’s wonderful to have more space available compared to the super small appartment we had before!
\nMatilda is almost one year and a half: she’s always more beautiful, sweet and a pest at the same time.
\nThis is the 514th post I write during 2011, sharing with you more than 400 looks for 365 days.
\nIn April I got my third tatto, “Ode alla vita” on my arm, dedicated to a friend who used to share my love for this poem by Martha Medeiros, first photo of the post because It includes in three words all this year, and not only that.
\nI think I told you enough about these 12 months \ud83d\ude42
\nI had the luck to share this special year with a lot of people who made every step and goal unique: thanks to Richi, to all my friends and to my family for being by my side, no matter what. And thanks to you, for always being here, even If behind a screen: when I’m very happy and get emotional some tears arrive to my cheeks while I smile. For the record: yesterday night, at 3.20 in the morning, was one of those moments. Thanks to you.<\/p>\n

Esattamente un anno fa, meditando su tutto ci\u00f2 che era successo nel 2010<\/a> non potevo fare a meno di sorridere, pensando che un anno del genere era decisamente imbattibile…Eppure il 2011 \u00e9 stato per me l’anno pi\u00fa ricco di esperienze, quello che mi ha dato le emozioni pi\u00f9 forti e che mi ha fatto viaggiare in posti mai visitati prima.
\nDurante il 2011 ho sfilato per Alberta Ferretti, ho partecipato per la prima volta alle 4 settimane della moda, sia a Febbraio che a Settembre (New York, Londra, Milano, Parigi), ho ricevuto il premio Bloglovin’ Award come \u201dNewcomer of the Year\u201d.
\nSono stata una delle testimonial della campagna autunno\/inverno 2011 di Hogan, ho raccontato la mia esperienza di blogger al master in fashion management in Bocconi, ho collaborato con Yamamay per il loro concorso \u201dYou’re The Queen\u201d (e vedrete nel 2012 la prossima collaborazione con il brand), sono stata una delle 7 blogger partecipanti al contest Mango (anche se non ho vinto), sono stata nuovamente ospite di Pennyblack per la Vogue Fashion’s Night Out di Milano, oltre ad essere la “madrina” di altri eventi, come le serate di Dior Addict, di Furla, di Mango e di L’inde Le Palais.
\nPer la prima volta ho provato l’emozione del red carpet, camminando sul tappeto rosso di Cannes per il festival del cinema a Maggio e poi su quello di Venezia a Settembre per due diverse premi\u00e8re, non vi dico i brividi, soprattutto la prima volta.
\nLa mia collezione di scarpe \u00e8 cresciuta ed ha raggiunto il primo traguardo che mi ero prefissata: pi\u00f9 di 1000 paia di scarpe vendute, cominciando ad essere disponibili anche in store all’estero. Per la prima volta sono stata ospite in radio, e addirittura nella mia radio preferita, Radio Deejay, in due diverse occasioni: prima con Platinette e poi con gli inimitabili Linus e Nicola.
\nLa collaborazione con il settimanale A \u00e9 continuata nel 2011 (e continua anche ora): a settembre \u00e9 stato pubblicato il mio 50esimo articolo, un altro importante traguardo.
\nInsieme ad Andy e Carolina \u00e9 partito il progetto Werelse, di cui vedrete prestissimo tutte le novit\u00e0 (siete pronti?).
\nCon Richi tutto sembra andare per il verso giusto: dopo essersi laureato ad Aprile ha cominciato a lavorare con me e The Blonde Salad ancora di pi\u00f9, oltre ad occuparsi di altri progetti web (tra cui tutta la gestione di Werelse). E’ bello condividere tante passioni e progetti.
\nIl 2011 \u00e9 stato l’anno dei viaggi, principalmente di lavoro, ho preso in tutto 38 aerei: sono stata invitata a Las Vegas per visitare la citt\u00e0, a Parigi per Kenzo, Dior e Louis Vuitton, a Barcellona per Mango, a Tokyo per la Vogue Fashion’s Night Out e a Shanghai per Elite Models Management. Ho visitato per la prima volta anche Istanbul e Dubai, anche se questi sono stati viaggi di piacere \ud83d\ude42
\nL’universit\u00e0 \u00e9 andata a rilento rispetto a quando non lavoravo: sono riuscita a dare meno esami rispetto agli anni precedenti. Fortunatamente me ne mancano pochi e spero di riuscire a finire entro il 2012.
\nLa Crew di The Blonde Salad \u00e8 cresciuta: oltre a Richi si sono aggiunti Angelo e Claire che mi aiutano nello scattare foto e per viaggi, organizzazione, gestione contatti e pubblicit\u00e0, cos\u00ed io posso dedicarmi in pieno ai contenuti del blog.
\nLa mia famiglia mi \u00e8 sempre vicina: di recente mia mamma ha aperto un blog di viaggi<\/a>, indovinate da chi ho ereditato questa passione…
\nIl nuovo appartamento in cui ci siamo trasferiti a fine Agosto \u00e9 finalmente pronto: quando anche la terrazza sar\u00e0 arredata vi far\u00f2 fare un tour virtuale. E’ una meraviglia avere pi\u00f9 spazio a disposizione rispetto al mini appartamento precedente!
\nMatilda ha quasi un anno e mezzo: \u00e9 sempre pi\u00f9 bella, tenera e pestifera allo stesso tempo.
\nQuesto \u00e8 il 514esimo post che scrivo durante il 2011, condividendo con voi pi\u00f9 di 400 look per 365 giorni.
\nAd Aprile ho fatto il mio terzo tatuaggio, la scritta “Ode alla vita” sul braccio, dedicata ad un amico con cui condividevo l’amore per questa poesia di Martha Medeiros, prima foto di questo post perch\u00e8 racchiude in tre parole tutto il mio anno, e non solo quello.
\nPenso di avervi fatto un resoconto esaustivo di questi 12 mesi \ud83d\ude42
\nHo avuto la fortuna di condividere quest’anno speciale della mia vita con tante persone che hanno reso unico ogni passo ed ogni traguardo: grazie a Richi, a tutti i miei amici e alla mia famiglia per essere stati sempre al mio fianco. E grazie a voi, per esserci stati sempre, anche se dietro ad uno schermo: quando sono veramente felice mi spunta qualche lacrima di commozione mentre sorrido. Per la cronaca: ieri, alle 3.20 del mattino scrivendo questo post, c’\u00e8 stato uno di quei momenti. Grazie a voi.<\/span><\/p>\n
