Shaping in Sephora...

I've had a lovely day today...just me & Verona. Decided to treat myself, I discovered a couple of weeks ago that we have a Sephora, many a happy hour was spent at the Sephora in Columbus with Kim & Ashley testing everything and discovering a new beauty product we couldn't live without. I miss the girls on days like today, but having somewhere I can go and think for a second they're there gives me a smile.
I was greeted by a sales assistant and struck lucky and met Carla, she's moved here from Miami/Lima, not only did she give me my first ever eyebrow shaping she gave me a little spring in my step - I realise now the purpose of it, it was to give me something I needed...but it wasn't perfectly shaped brows, it was an afternoon spent feeling functional and helping me find a place in a city where I often feel like a visitor. Already booked my next appointment with Carla and a coffee.

The Start of Summer...

Having spent 3 weekends in the UK in the last month...my blog has suffered. However here is a little update...
The Mille Milgia passed through Verona, and it was an absolute blast, fast cars, beautiful city and ultimately a race!
We started at Castel Vecchio ponte which they opened for the evening to drive over, then under Porto Borsari, through Piazza Erbe and then a final dash through Piazza Bra. There was so much chrome whizzing through Verona I didn't know which way to look first. Although Verona seemed to me to be a perfect city to race through, I have a feeling the cobbles paid havoc with the low suspensions and and the odd wing which seemed to come loose!
A whole weekend spent in Verona treating myself to breakfast sat out on the piazza. Looking forward to more weekends in Verona especially now summer seems to have arrived this week, I luckily escaped the heatwave at the weekend a cool 40° I was enjoying the subtle warm days of Spring at home in Somerset.
