Monday Remix: Olive Green and Pink

Happy Monday, my dear blog readers!

2014-05-24 12.20.05

I´m making this short today because I have to run some errands for our wedding anniversary dinner later tonight. We´re celebrating our 7th and until now, I just can´t believe that we could last this long. Ours was a whirlwind courtship and like all half-baked relationships before taking the plunge, they were lots of misunderstandings and personality clashes at the start. We survived! The hubz and I still squabble once in a while but it´s nothing serious. I think what I really love about my husband is that he knows how to say I´m sorry like I do when it's my fault. For me, saying sorry when you´re wrong should be one of the most important ingredients in a healthy relationship aside from trust and not having a wandering eye(lol!). I´m really thanking fate and the BIG GUY up there for giving the hubz to me. :)

I had this short sleeved knitted rosette top since last winter thinking about wearing it again for spring. The old cardigan was an afterthought because it was chilly outside even it was sunny.

Love your olive green skinnies. They are pretty dressy too. I love them with the mixed top and the pink. I recently paired my olive green skinnies with purple - look for them at the blog, sometime this week.

Hope your week is off to a great start. <3 Ada.

Happy 7th Wedding Anniversary Che! Marriage requires full commitment and a lot of work for both. I'm happy for the two of you!

We went to Lake Tahoe for the Memorial Day weekend and it was hot enough to finally hang out at the beach, not too hot to dip in the water though.

Your cardigan stands out a mile to me. I love the pink on you, and also the lilac jumper. Great trousers too, I love Zara!

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...
