WIWW: B/W and Stripes

Hola, hola! :)

20131025_180233

These are what-I-wore pics when I had my vacation in mild- weathered Catalonia last December. After visiting the Casa Torres Winery, we also made a detour to Girona, one of the most important and bustling cities of Catalonia. I kinda held on posting these pics in winter because it wasn´t weather appropriate especially to most of you who had a terrible winter this year. ;)

I missed this black skater skirt, I was looking for it the other day but I can´t seem to find it in my closet. I hope it didn´t get lost because it´s one my favorite skirts: It hugs my hips in the right places and it´s just the right length to fake long legs. The black and white top is three years old. The neckline used to be a turtleneck but I cut it to make me more comfortable around my neck. I just can´t stand wearing turtlenecks unless it´s windy or really cold and I don´t want to wear a scarf.

You look so cute girl. Chic, feminine, casual and refined. I love the loose fit of your striped tee. And the cute yellow flats remind me of the ones I have from Gap. =)

Happy Wednesday!!

Love this! I think skater's skirts are so fun and flattering too. The bright shoes were a fun addition to the outfit!

I hope you had a wonderful birthday celebration!

Kudos to you for delaying the post while a lot of our bloggy friends are experiencing a harsh winter.

I love this look and the yellow shoes that pop from the black and white outfit.

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 ...
