Monday Remix: Denim Cut-offs and Cream

Image
Good morning, blogger friends! Here´s something very casual and summery getup for today: a pair of  denim cut-offs, cream colored flowy top and open-toed flat sandals to complete the ensemble. Summer´s officialy here, finally! :) I love accessories especially jewelry but I don´t know why I always forget to photograph them, must be because I´m getting old, hahaha! For this very casual look, I decided wear this love necklace which I bought for sale at Suite Blanco years ago. This is one of my go-to necklacse when I feel like wearing dainty jewelry. It´s quite light! top - Zara, denim cut-offs - Pull&Bear, sandals - Pimkie, bag(very old )- Massimo Dutti Here are some ways that I´ve worn these denim cut-offs: Happy Monday! Hugs, Che

Flyday Fridays: Hush Blush

Image
It´s a Friday, my luvs ! I´m sharing some what-I-wore photos from my Holy Week vacation in Catalonia three months ago. I know, old pics, hahaha! Spring has just started during this time and so I was wearing a light colored sweater and my favorite flat boots for walking. We stopped by the historic and beautiful Poblet Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site but didn´t get to see what´s inside the monastery (only the church which is quite simple) because we were pressed for time. If you like old churches/monasteries, I recommend this place. They offer guided tours too. top , jeans and bag - Zara Any plans for the weekend? Have fun! Hugs, Che

WIWW: Nude and Mocha

Image
Hellooo! I thought that the warm weather would go on and on but just a day after taking these pics, the temperature went down 10 degrees and we´re back to having those dreary and cold days again. It´s a good thing that I got to wear this light knitted dress again before the clouds turned into gray again because I only get to wear this every two years, lol! I rarely put on this nude number because it´s a bit sheer and I had to wear a slip underneath and I always look so bloated, hahaha! But it´s soft, breezy and comfy and so why complain about it? Just pair it with the right accessories and you´re good to go. dress(old) - Zara, necklace(old) - Stradivarius,, sandals -Primark As for my bag, I broke in the hubby´s birthday gift from three months ago. While other girls can´t wait to wear their gifts/ new purchases, I´m the type who waits for the right time to wear them even if it will take months to do so. So here I am with this mocha colored bag in saffiano leather which is ...

Monday Remix: White and Gray

Image
Good morning, all! I´ve been wearing this white boyfriend jeans non-stop nowadays. Here´s another very casual combination which I wore the other month when we went museum hunting in Barcelona, with a lightweight gray sweater and silver loafers: Although white jeans are very easy to pair with anything, it can be a pain to maintain it pristine white the whole day. Case point, after visiting the Joan Miró Museum, a kid accidentally touched my lower right leg while trying to sit down on the bus seat leaving a very nice curved dirty smiley and  just when I thought that everything´s going to be fine after that, a girl on a bike accidentally bumped me on the back leaving a perfect tire imprint on the back of my right leg while the hubz and I were walking along the  Passeig de Gracia. So the day ended with a smiley on my left leg and a tire print on my right leg, hahaha! So what´s the lesson learned? Never wear white especially jeans when traveling in crowded places, hahaha...

Monday Remix: Gingham and Vermilion

Image
Hellooo! Technically it´s still spring but it looks so much like summer in this part of the world for two weeks now. How about you in your side of the world? :) Anyway, today´s outfit is a remix of things that I´ve worn last year. After doing a thorough closet spring cleaning the other day, I´ve noticed that I have a lot of tops and skirts that are waiting to be mixed and matched and so here´s one of them: Vermilion( red orange) is my go to color when I´m stuck with black and white gingham print aside form yellow, black and white. I´m safe like that, hahaha! As usual, I´m matchy-matchy with this look and pardon for the lack of an accent bling. I wore this outfit when we went down to have a late lunch at our fave restaurant just around the corner. As usual, I was in my pajamas when we decided to eat out and so I just changed the pjs for the skirt, added on some flats and a crossbody bag and voila! :) top, skirt, flats - Zara, bag - Massimo Dutti I wore the hanging...

WIWW: Minimalist in Red

Image
Hellooooo! Just a simple minimalist look for this very sunny Wednesday. ;) The truth is, I dress like this almost everyday except for that heavy necklace which I don´t get to wear  often. But a flowy top + jeans + flats + clutch/tote bag/ crossbody bag? That´s basic, right? Why complicate things when the combination works for you! Well,that´s just me, and YOU? top and clutch(old ) - Massimo Dutti, necklace(old ),  jeans(old) - Zara, flats - Bimba&Lola Happy mid-week! Hugs!

Monday Remix: Floral, Black and Denim

Image
Hola, holaaa! I´m keeping this short because it´s a Monday after all. This was one of those throw-it-all- in combinations where I only have five minutes to dress because the hub z is already downstaris waiting for me and itching to go. You know that situation when your companion is in a hurry and you´re late and you hate early morning confrontations becaus eit´s gonna ruin your day? So you pull out the first thing that you see in your closet and pray that everything works out fine. It was the floral skirt first and the rest followed. Looking at these pics, I´d say that the black top was quite harsh on the whole combo, but then, black goes with anything and so with that train of thought, I sorta went went with it. hahaha! Have a great start, y´all! Hugs, Che
