The interiors edit: How to embrace the Nonna Chic trend
Live la dolce vita with citrus interiors that riff on a Sicilian summer and channel the traditional charm of Instagram's loveable pasta grannies The cottagecore grandmother is cooling her heels in her floral kitchen, meanwhile Nonna Chic granny is polishing her Murano glass and folding her vintage napkins in time for big family gatherings this summer. Meet the latest trend to hit our homes: Nonna Chic, an aesthetic rooted in the warmth, conviviality and traditional home of the Italian matriarch. Who knew Italian 'nonnas' were the new super influencers? Ever since the culinary wisdom and soothing ravioli-rolling techniques of these 'pasta grannies' hit our Instagram feeds, we've been obsessed. Take a quick glance at @pastagrannies on Instagram, which has amassed over a million followers, and you'll see 84-year-old Sicilian granny Giuseppa making maccheroni, and 92-year-old Pina making chestnut gnocchi, complete with vintage apron and headscarf in a classic Italian kitchen. It's not just the traditional pasta methods we're drooling over, it's those kitchens: humble and traditional with checked tablecloths and patterned tiles and a smattering of vintage kitchenware, and a worktop sprinkled with flour — it was only a matter of time before their wholesome style gained a certain cachet. Part of the charm of the Italian nonna aesthetic is rooted in its lived-in feel: that hand-painted bowl from Puglia, an embroidered tablecloth from Palermo — pieces that will revisit your table and home for years to come. But it's also about that hit of a Sicilian summer in all of its citrus zingy-ness. So if you're dreaming of a summer spent lolling under the Italian sun, Aperol spritz in hand, you can invite some dolce vita vibes with blue and white napkins and lemon jugs, fun sardine-inspired homewares and prints that make you feel you're somewhere south of Sorrento. A key part of any Italian lifestyle is food and a dining table filled with serveware, vases, and coloured glassware for the large family get-togethers. Penneys's Mediterranean/coastal-style tableware is a sunny hit of sunshine with plenty of beachy charm and nods to the sea across ceramics, glassware and textiles, including sardine trays and side plates, fish-shaped jugs and lemon-shaped vases. Mix it up with its shell-shaped vases and tableware for that more refined Italian style. Immediately reminiscent of an Italian summer, Maison Flanneur's range of tableware and linens perfectly captures that sweet spot between traditional and modern styles of Italian homewares. 'Puglia' plates and scalloped napkins embroidered with lemons instantly feels like a Sicilian summer table. Italy's love affair with lemons is a timeless story. Since antiquity, lemons have symbolised prosperity and have long featured in Italian homes, from bedlinen to tableware and statement pieces like Sicilian head vases and large jugs adorned with the citrus fruit. We love Bordallo Pinheiro's citron pitcher or M&S's version for a fraction of the cost. You could also just hit Bettina Ceramica for all your Italian tableware needs. Inspired by her Ligurian mother Bettina, Natalie Sytner has scoured the country from Sicily to Vento in search of a collection of traditional Italian ceramics that showcase the families and artists keeping the hand-crafted process alive. There are beautiful scalloped cake stands, wall candle holders and hand-painted acquasantiera (holy water stoups) with multi-coloured glazes. Zara's collections always feel evocative, and its high summer campaign is no exception with homewares which riff on the Med. Think sardine salt and pepper shakers, striped bottle openers and tablecloths and vintage beach umbrellas. ADVERTISEMENT It's about creating a house that feels 'lived-in', one filled with summer stories and simple pleasures — good food, sunshine and family.

Rosie O'Donnell says Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos' $50m wedding ‘turned my stomach'
In a post on Instagram, the former talk show host called Sánchez a 'fake fem bot wife' before praising Bezos' first wife, MacKenzie Scott The Ireland-based US comic launched a scathing attack on the weekend extravaganza in Venice that had 'turned my stomach'. O'Donnell did not hold back as she also took aim at the star-studded guest list, which included celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, the Kardashian-Jenner family, Leonardo DiCaprio, Orlando Bloom, Tom Brady, Sydney Sweeney and many others. In a post on Instagram, the former talk show host called Sánchez a 'fake fem bot wife' before praising Bezos' first wife, MacKenzie Scott. Rosie O'Donnell Today's News in 90 Seconds - July 1st 'The BEZOS wedding,' O'Donnell declared, 'it turned my stomach. Seeing all these billionaires. Gathering in the gross excess of it all. The show of it.' 'Is Oprah friends with Jeff Besos,' she asked. 'Really – how is that possible. He treats his employees with disdain. By any metric he is not a nice man.' 'And his fake fem bot wife. Who looks like that. Why would he choose her. After the salt of the earth Mackenzie.' 'Sold his soul. Is what it looks like from here. The devil is smiling. At all his conquests.' Bezos and Scott divorced in 2019 after nearly 25 years of marriage. She walked away with $38 billion and a 4% stake in Amazon after the split and, according to the New York Post, pledged to give away at least half of her wealth. O'Donnell, who moved to Ireland earlier this year with her 12-year-old nonbinary child Clay, was not the only celebrity to criticise the lavish Italian wedding that took place last Friday. During her fifth annual Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project Block Party over the weekend, the actress said: 'I think we might be the only people who did not get an invite to the Bezos wedding. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 'But that's OK because they suck and we're cool,' she added, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Theron then thanked her audience for 'taking the time to be a part of this, especially when the world feels like it's burning, because it is.' 'Yeah, f**k them,' she added. Other celebrities used the opportunity to praise the billionaire's 'awesome' first wife with Mia Farrow posting: 'How awesome is MacKenzie Scott! As of mid-December 2024, she had given a total of $19.3 billion to over 1600 charitable organizations.' The US celebrity who has Donegal ancestry moved to Ireland after Donald Trump's election to a second term as president. A staunch critic of Trump for decades, she made the move to Dublin in January. She said previously: 'When he got the nomination I said to my therapist, 'I can't survive another four years with him, I know I can't.' She said, 'What's the plan?' And I said I would move to Ireland, it's the only country I would move to, I have family there that we have kept in touch with and I know that I can get citizenship because of my grandparents.' And she said, 'Let's start to make that plan.' Rosie moved here with her 12-year-old non-binary child, Clay, because of the Trump administration's policies. 'I spoke to Clay and said that for trans people and trans kids and gay people it's [America] is not a safe place to be. And for women, they've taken away our rights that I remember fighting for in the early '70s.' Although she misses her family who still live in the US, O'Donnell says she has no regrets about leaving America. 'Clay is very happy here,' she says. 'Clay has autism and supports are being taken away in America.' Although Rosie's friends were surprised she left America for Ireland, she points out that she quit her TV show at the height of its success. 'I made crazy, insane money, the kind of money if you made it for one year you'd never have to work again… and I did it for six years,' she adds.
