Flyday Fridays: Baby Pink

I was about to post an outfit in blue and cream today but I remembered Renae of Simple Sequins asking her blogger friends to wear something pink for her Big C fight. So darling Renae, this is for you! :)

This was my first sales find at the winter sales, a pink button down. I don´t know why but I seem to be collecting button downs these days, probably because they make the perfect layering piece on chilly days or they´re just the right top to pull out from the closet on those ¨I don´t have anything to wear¨ days when you want to go for a very casual but chic look. In other words, they´re the perfect classic pieces to hoard  keep in your closet. ;)

top- Mango, jeans(old)- Zara, clutch(old) and pumps(old)- Blanco
Since this is already a very casual ensemble, I paired it with dark blue pumps and finished with a leopard printed clutch. In my book, animal prints = chic, so if you go for a casual but chic vibe, this is it!

We´re having warm weather today and this weekend too( at last!) and it looks like I´m going to survive the colds(crossing fingers) and what does that mean? Travel. Even just on the other side of the town. That´s my weekend plan unless the hubby´s nose disagrees. I just can´t seem to win an argument with his nose these days, bummer! So what´s your plan this weekend? Tell me on the comments section below! ;)

Hugs and kisses,

 Che

WOW those slinky, sexy, tall heels and that clutch. It is the accessories that totally dress up this simple but totally classic outfit. I need a Baby Pink Button-down. Great cuff & ring, too.

Have a Great Weekend, Cheryl!!


P.S. My Pink-themed outfit is coming on later, today. =)

Such a lovely blue and pink outfit! :)

I like how put-together shirts look, but I hate ironing them, so I don't wear them often, haha!

Monday Remix: Winter White and Teal

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...
