Some Random Blab

As expected, the weather here in this part of Spain has gone predictably cold. While the south is getting toasty by the day, here in the north we´re still having those cold days and sometimes even in the middle of summer. So once in a while I pull out those light knitted tops from the autumn-winter closet.



One thing I love about wearing black aside from making you look sexy, is that it highlights the bling to perfection. A simple black top is the best background for some serious bling and funky colored stones.


A tribute to the late Alexander McQueen. The cheapest tribute so far, it´s about 98% cheaper than any real McQueen accessory. Beat that! :)


These wedges are becoming a favorite thing of mine aside from my flats. They almost go with everything especially with black. I know, that last sentence was so dumb. hihihi!;)

Wearing:
knitted top- Blanco
jeans- Calvin Klein
wedges- Pull&Bear
bangle and skull necklace- local store

Just took my written Spanish exams and surprisingly I didn´t have a migraine after. Is that a sign that I´m gonna pass? hahaha! Wish me luck, loves and have a sunny day ahead! ;)

Besitos,

Che

Somebody's been busy blogging a lot these days! Inspired? Must be the new blog name? ;)

I am with you on the unpredictable weather. Here, we haven't really experienced a full summer yet. Temps are just flirting on the 70s. But I'm not complaining, I actually like it a bit cool. I can't stand hot and humid!

Love the outfit, specially the bangles. I know I've seen it in your old blog. Love how it splashes colors on the simple black outfit!

Take care Che! =)

shirt dress converted to top - Zara ( from the sales last year) Lately, I´ve discovered that the extra pounds that I´ve unconsciously piled over the past years have finally settled comfortably on my face. I´m going to hide my face for now. ;) Do you have a wgi (weight gain indicator and I made this up)  in your body? I do and it´s my face (aside from the muffin top). hehe!;) earrings - bazaar (Phils.) I love shirt dresses. They´re loose and they basically hide anything that you wanted to hide. Know what I mean? ;) One bad thing about this particular dress shirt though is the fit. It´s too loose, a bit short and it doesn´t look good with my mini ... and so a lot of rolling and folding was done to achieve the  laid back look that I wanted to create . That´s me rolling and folding below. ;) I´m just kidding about hiding my face. Here it is... and yes, my face is so healthy, no? :) Say hello to the weight gain culprit ! My guilt...

Flyday Fridays: Paris (part 1)

Image
The first time I went to Paris was in early spring. It was raining and gloomy but that didn´t stop me from falling in love with this romantic city. Here are some things to do and places to visit when you´re in Pa-gheee . ;) 1, 2, 3: Get lost inside le Louvre,  pass by   Mona Lisa´s room and get mesmerized by her coy smile and if you like ancient jewelry, be enthralled by the museum´s jewelry collection. Even the bishop´s crozier is bejeweled! 4: Admire the Sainte Chapelle´s amazing ceiling, structure and colorful stained glass windows. 5,6: Fall in line (entrance is free!) and admire the sculpture and stained windows of the Notre Dame. By this time you´re very tired and so take a rest at the park/garden at the back of the church. Later you can cross the small bridge and have your lunch at one of the numerous creperies and restaurants in the small island. 7,8: After a light lunch, take the metro and go to Montmartre and visit the Sacré Coeur....

Skirting the Issue

Image
Halooo! So how´s your weekend? ;) Mine was spent visiting the new flat ( we just had the new sofa delivered, yey!) and last Saturday we went to this mini-food fair where they sell lots of goodies. I tasted some chorizos, jamon serrano, and a glass of white wine too. Too bad I forgot to take the camera so no photos to show you but we brought home some sweets which unfortunately we also gobbled up during the weekend. hihihi! At least I´ve spared you from breaking your diets this summer. ;) Truth be told, I don´t look good wearing high waisted skirts because I have wide hips ( I´m good at hiding them here ;) . Maybe I could pull off wearing them 10 yrs. ago when I still have a slimmer silhouette, er, smaller waistine and hips and a flatter middle but now everything especially my hips are expanding faster like the speed of light. So a mini-hipster skirt is just perfect for me. floral top - Vero Moda skirt - Mango ( summer sales 2008) ring and silver bracelets - local ...
