WIWW: Wine Season

Hola, holaaa!

Wasn´t it just the other day that I was commenting about transitional pieces to wear here in the blog? Suddenly, we´re aready in the middle of the week. How time flies! Anyway, here´s what I wore last weekend while visiting the neighboring city of Logroño, the capital of La Rioja region:

The original plan was to take some photos of the tradional ¨pisado de uvas¨ or grape treading to start the annual harvest for 2016 but the plan bombed because we got lost looking for a place to park and when we arrived at the palza, the place was jampacked already. So we headed back to one of the famous wineries instead and took some photos.

This awesome corrugated structure is called Bodegas Ysios, a fine artwork and winery designed by the famous Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. It´s located in the town of Laguardia in the La Rioja- Alavesa region of Spain. I had the chance to visit this winery which included wine tasting by the way late autumn of last year but wasn´t able to blog about it because student life ate a big chunk of my blogger life back then, hehe. I hope to tell you about it soon. ;)

Since it was an unusually warm day for a September , I only wore a light knitted top with jeans and flats.

And yep, you know that it´s wine season here because you´ll see lots of small trailer trucks filled with freshly harvested grapes on the road these days. :)

HELLO, IT´S BEEN A WHILE...

Image
 It´s been forever since I´ve updated this blog of mine. So just to give you an update of where I´ve been and what I´ve been doing, I´m still here in my tiny corner of the world and visiting high places( as in mountains) and traipsing around vineyards just before the wine season is about to start. With international travel getting a bit complicated due to the you know what, I´ve learned to appreciate and be contented with what´s right in our own backyard. I´ve always been a nature lover through and through and so travelling to big urban jungles isn´t a big deal for me. The city where I live is full of parks and surrounded by mountains and just a little less than an hour, you can also visit the vineyards for free because they´re just along the highway. As for the wine tasting, that, you have to pay though.;) We took these pics at the beginning of summer where the grapes look like tiny little dots yet. In a month or so, they would be ready for harvesting and you´ll be seeing those purpl

WIWW: What I was Wearing Lately

Image
 Hello, my loves! Yep, it´s been half a year since I´ve been gone. As usual, real life got in the way with virtual life ( although I wasn´t really very active with virtual life to begin with, oops!) . Anyhoo,   here´s just to give you  a heads up that I´m still alive and kicking and even if I may  be not upgrading the blog with new posts for a very lo ooong time, I´m still on trend with the, uh, trends . 😃 Like for example, the ubiquitous animal print aka  leopard print, I´m still wearing it. Mine though is a jacket from more than two years ago. A print like this never goes out of style and so you better stock on it. Just pair it with a monochrome look and you´re good to go. sweater- Pull & bear, pants- Bershka, shoes- Nike, coat(old)- Mango  As for the snakeskin print,  I experimented on it a few years ago with a dress but this time, I opted for a pair of booties which I got during the Black Friday sales last December. It was one of my best buying decisions last year

WIWW: Tonal White

Image
Hello, everyone! Here´s a lone snippet of what I wore about two weeks ago. The weather´s turn spring- y to an even summery temperature today and so it looks like winter has gone for good. So consider this a fitting farewell outfit to winter 2018-2019. ;) coat- Pull&Bear, jeans- mango, booties- Zara, bag- Zara The tonal look is a huge trend this year and being a vertically challenged girl that I am, I welcome this trend with open and willing arms.😁 FACT: All of the items that I´m wearing are from the current sales except for the booties which I´ve had for two years now. So this look is a win-win situation after all! Have a lovely mid-week, all! Hugs, Che
