Short, Knitted and Beige

Happy Friday, everyone!

P1180253

Today I´m debuting this delicately knitted short sleeved beige cardigan ( wow, that descrption was quite long!) in the blog. Found this on sale this summer but I can´t seem to find the occasion to wear it. Since today´s a sunny day, I´ll take it for a ¨walk¨ outside. By the way, the color reminds me of the Temple of Sagrat Cor  in Tibidabo, Barcelona. Actually, almost all old churches here in Spain have this color. This is to remind you and me to never visit monasteries or churches wearing something in beige unless we want to blend in with the walls and we don´t want that don´t we? ;)

Here´s how it looks on all sides:

cardigan- Blanco, stripe top- H&M(old), pants- Promod
What got my attention was the cute design at the back. Now I´m guessing what it is: a ribbon, a wing or okay this is quite wild, the head of an owl? lol! I´m open to suggestions. ;)

Well, another week´s ended and I hope you´ve accomplished a lot this week and just for fun... I´m wearing red pants and candy stripes to go with the cardigan because Christmas is just around the corner!

Enjoy the weekend!

Love,

 Che

Hello Che! thanks for dropping by and for the compliments on my christmas decors. yep, atat na rin akong mag all in on my outdoor decorations pero pinigilan ako ng hubby ko (& I fully understand him naman...lol)

I love your cardigan and it's intricate design + your red hot jeans but even if I want to get one (red jeans) I am hoping that I will shed off some extra pounds that I gained for the last couple of months :( Can you pls share your secret kc mukhang di ka man lang nag ge gain kahit konting timbang.

Hey Che!

I really love your pairing here, I wouldn't have thought that mocha + candy cane would work. I think I'm gonna do the same, if you don't mind!

Yes, the interesting back will surely win me over too! And if you ask me, I see it as a ribbon ;)

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...
