Monday Remix: Cheetah and Sienna

Hello, world! :)

2014-05-16 16.57.20

I only have indoor photos for you and yes, my outfit blends with my kitchen door´s frame today, lol!  Anyway, I plan to reserve this color palette for autumn but hey, fashion is about experimenting not just looks and trends but also colors and besides it matches with my wedges. So why not give this look a try for spring and then later for summer maybe? ;)

Pardon the pasty face, no blusher going on in there just a slash of red lipstick. The weather´s been cooperating in our side of the world lately although it still gets chilly in the morning and when after the sun sets. So this is my uniform nowadays, a light sweater whcih I can roll up when it gets warm and a skirt to put some color on my legs. The open toe sandals are making a comeback too and love that I can wiggle my toes in the open air!

top and sandals- local store, skirt- Stradivarius, clutch, necklace(old)- Massimo Dutti
I´ve had this burnt sienna colored sweater for a long time although it doesn´t usually appear in my outfit posts and as for the cheetah printed skirt, I first wore it last winter:


How about you in there? Are you enjoying spring? ;)

Happy Monday, all!

Hugs,

 Che

That top pairs so nicely with the printed skirt! :) Lovely outfit :) I think you can wear browns in any weather too - spring or summer, it's a great neutral! :)

Very springy, I think ... it's the attitude and fabric weight, I think, and I thought off-season fabrics are a "thing" this spring, aren't they? I love it that you know it's sienna, and not just rust, or brown!
You look very chic!

That's the great thing about skirts. You can usually wear them in Winter and Summer. I am a massive fan of leopard print although I don't think I've seen it in a skater skirt before. (Stylish Tuesday)

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...

Skirting the Issue

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 ...

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...
