WIWW: Colorblocking Khaki

Image
Hello, hellooo! How´s the week so far? My Monday was spent having coffee and catching up with some friends and yesterday was ¨autumn cleaning¨ day. It´s the time of the year where the summer clothes go up the closet and the darker and thicker clothing goes down and because we still have a few summery days left, I made good use of my skirts like this tulle number in khaki: As the years go, I have noticed that my dressing aesthetic has gone much simpler like dressing in one color and wearing a multi-colored bag or in this case in a contrasting color to complete the look. I find that outfits like this doesn´t take much time to create, quite a no-brainer actually but always come out sleek, IMO. As  a plus, tulle skirts are actually perfect to wear on transitional weather because they´re actually warm on those chilly days and yes, the red orange and khaki is the perfect color block autumn combo for me.

Monday Remix: The Transitional Look

Hola, hola! It´s that time of the month where it´s chilly to wear a mini skirt in the early morning but quite warm in the afternoon to wear jeans. My solution? A midi skirt: It´s long to cover and warm your legs in the morning and quite airy when the weather rises later. It works for me and it would for you too! I do wear a denim jacket and slipons on my feet for extra warmth. 😄 skirt(old ) - Sfera, knitted top - Zara, denim jacket - Stradivarius, tote bag - Bimba & Lola So what´s your transitional look? ;) Hugs, Che PS: Linking with Molly and Lauren.

WIWW: The Mili Green Dress

Good morning, my darlings! Two more days and it´s officially fall/autumn on this side of the world. The weather´s been quite nippy these days although we still have a few sunny days in a week so it isn´t  bad. Here´s a transitional look that I suggest during those warm days: A shirt dress with an uneven hemline is the perfect in-between seasonal clothing for those sunny days in fall/autumn. This dress works two ways: worn on it´s on or used as a cover-up over pants/pants and top, et voila, outfit complete! You can always put on a cardigan over it when the temperature drops later in the afternoon. ;) Moreover, the military green color is a basic fall/autumn color and so you´re on `fleek´ with this dress.😉😊 I bought this dress in July but can´t seem to find it any more in the Zara website  but here are some options: 1st is this  and 2nd is this in mustard and gray color. dress and sandals - Zara, sunglasses - H&M,  bag - Bimba& Lola What do you think? ;)

Monday Remix: Matchy-Matchy in Nude

Good morning, everyone! So how´s the weekend? Mine´s been a cold one but hey, we´ve had the best summer in years and so I´m not complaining.  Anyway, here´s a typical outfit that I wear when the temp drops: Although, the trend nowadays is about lots of ruffles, cold shoulders and bell sleeves, I still opt for my good old cashmere sweater. You can never go wrong with a cashmere sweater because it´s a basic, a keeper and doesn´t go out of trend anytime! Right? Right. I´ve noticed that I´m gravitating towards solid colors this year, maybe it´s the age or the lifestyle or both but I´m okay with it because they´re easy to mix and match. denim jacket, pants- Zara, cashmere sweater - local store, tote bag - Purificacion Garcia, flats - Aldo So what are you wearing lately? Has fall/autumn already landed on your doorstep? Hugs, Che PS: Linking up with Rachael ,  Lauren  and Erin . Join us! :)

Flyday Friday: Nájera

Good morning, my luvs! Finally, after like a gazillion promises here´s a short travel post for today to share with you. :) Aside from the world famous paella, Spain´s gastronomy wouldn´t be complete without it´s wines. In fact, one of the most sought after region for wine connaisseurs  in the world is the La Rioja region.These pics were taken sometime in September(last year, e eep !) when the harvest season began. We visited a touristy town called Nájera in La Rioja. Here´s what I wore: striped buttondown , shoes and bag - Massimo Dutti, pants - Mango, twill jacket- Zara A visit to one of La Rioja´s  pueblos , isn´t complete without stopping along the roadside to look at the grapes and a sneaky pic of the ripened grapes ready for harvesting. It´s quite tempting to plop a few on my mouth but they´re strict in here so photos only please and no grape tasting! Do you see that red cliff on the photo? This place was once used as a hiding place during the Moor invasion and wi
