Muddy Trail

Hi, everyone!

The other day, we decided to visit one of the many parks here in my city and did a little paseo. This is not a perfect getup to walk alongside thick bushes but I´m kinda missing this skirt which I last wore here and so there she goes. ;)


Like most natural parks, the trails were unpaved and a bit rocky and so I wore my short studded boots. Unfortunately, it rained two days before and so there was a lot of mud halfway through the walk and my boots got stuck.The practical side in me went back and asked the hubz to continue walking along the dirt road so that he can leave me in peace while taking my outfit photos. hahaha!



These photos were taken just before twilight, got lucky to have enough light to show the blue sky too.


Today, it was a sunny day. Too bad I overslept in my siesta, I could have gotten back in there, wore my walking shoes and finished one of the trails. Well, maybe next time...

How about you, do you like walking in parks?

Have a fun weekend, everyone! :)

Hugs,

Che

I can't wait to go visit parks again, but probably a long ways for us still. Still snow today!!

Lovely skirt, Che. I love how you broke the otherwise all-black outfit with a nice floral skirt!! :)

I love walking in parks! It's so lovely and peaceful! I lived near to a great one in my first year of study; Richmond Park here in London. We should definately walk in parks more often:-)

The abstract print on your skirt it's so fun!!! I would rather err on the side of being dressed up whilst hiking cause I hate sweats... by the way the background of the sky is so beautiful!

I totally love taking walks in parks, and (during the day) when the weather is lovely in spring and summer cemeteries are great for bike rides and walks too!
or at least here in Toronto they are... :) (im not alone when I say I love taking walks in cemeteries)

I think your outfit was fine for a day in the park, I wear skirts where ever I can!! :)

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 ...
