una donna può essere bella in stivali, o in scarpi, o in niente affatto

I still prefer the boots. :)

[winterbadger]

Well, of course; who wouldn't? :-)

One of Petrarch's lesser-known pieces, I take it. ;)

[winterbadger]

a motto of my own composing, I confess, inspired by conversation with a certain donna bella con capelli rossi (da una bottiglia)

perhaps I have found my own "Laura"? who can know?

Boots are a good thing! :-D Then again, so is nothing at all.....

[winterbadger]

Nothing wrong with a nice birthday suit ;-)

Indeed.

(thank you, babelfish!)

[winterbadger]

Oh, no! It took more work than that. See, Babelfish thinks "boots" has to do with computer systems. And somehow it translates "shoes" as "pattini" which means "iceskates". Be very, very careful before trusting Babelfish with an important translation. :-)

And what could be more important that attempting to chamr a fair lady? :-)

I did not mean to imply that you used Babelfish. Only that I required Babelfish to understand what you said :). I did not seem to have a translation problem (i.e. the resulting sentence was a nicely worded thought which did not contain iceskates), but I'm only guessing.
