{pink}: On the look for something precious for the little girl and it’s just not a case that pink has predominated my recent purchases. I am particularly fond of these lovely vintage pieces each one with its story – and even more - proud about my newborn niece, Chiara.
Le trousseau de Chiara includes a box filled with a selection of pink and light grey outfit and a lilac and pale green bed linen and a handmade quilt (still working on it) and complementing textile accessories such as the decorative heart and more ….
