Dots, Fuschia and Chambray

Hi, everyone!

I´m finally wearing a skirt. ;) Have just came back from Lisbon today and yes, I´ve just spent another long weekend at the Portuguese side. Since I ´ve been wearing nothing but pants lately, I decided to wear skirts for this trip. It´s a good thing that the Lisbon weather was mild even if it was mostly cloudy and rainy and so I survived with just a pair of dark tights to cover my legs and flats for those long walks.

Pardon the cropped and not so clear photos. I´m on a bloat phase right now and eating butter and bread for breakfast and dinner and rice for lunch doesn´t help conceal my puffy face either, hahaha!

I know, I owe you lots of photos with the double weekend trips that I´ve had. Please just wait for that. In the meantime, here´s a candid shot of what I wore on my last day: chambray over a thin sweater, a dotted and pleated skirt and fuschia pink ballerinas and to add a dash of color to an otherwise basic color palette:

I love that skirt so much! It's from New Yorker? I didn't know much about the brand but I've spotted a few around in Dubai so I should check them out.

The peek of polka dots on black is cute. I also like that it´s a fine dotted skirt.

Hi, y´all! So here I am again, posing in front of my kitchen door. My photographer aka the hub z  isn´t available today and so I´m back shooting in my kitchen(again), I hope you don´t mind! ;) Here´s another winter white version with an ivory top which you´ve already seen me wear here in the blog and my favorite white pants. The furry clutch in teal is another recent addition to my growing clutch collection which doesn´t seem to stop, ooops ! I would like to call this as my winter farewell outfit although technically spring starts on the 3rd week of  March and snow´s coming this week. ;) top and clutch - Zara, pants- Pimkie, shoes- local store I´ve worn the top here: And the pants here: and with this black/white Mango sweater which accidentaly went into the hubby´s church donation pile early last year. Thank goodness, the Custo Barcelona clutch was safe because it´s Pantone´s color of 2014, whew ! So what´s your version of winter white? No...

Nautical and Taupe

Hello, I´m still here! I know it´s been four days since my last post. ;) Real life´s been hectic lately and so I had to let go of  my blog life for a couple of days to attend to some urgent personal  matters. Anywa yz ,I´m back and wearing stripes! Since stripes looks good with sea, I´m sharing two photo snippets of Biarritz´s beaches in between my outfit photos. While almost everyone usually pair blue stripes with red or white I went for something different like taupe. Taupe is my new gray and I´m loving it! You should try it too. :) So why beach photos of Biarritz? It has one of the best beaches on this side of the world, it´s in France ( in the south actually)  and the place is chic ¨super magnified¨ !  As to my outfit, I´m finishing the look with a blush colored leather jacket and then I´m off for my afternoon walk later. I hope this looks chic enough. ;) ( top - Zara, pants - Pimkie, leather jacket - thrifted, flats, clutch - local...

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...
