In Black




  • Saturday lunch was chinese buffet with the hubz. Sunday lunch was the same but this time with a visiting friend. And I´m wondering why I´m so bloated?
  • Sunday was rainy, a bit windy and cold. I decided to wear black ( turtleneck, suede boots and tights) plus a thicker scarf for extra warmth and color.  Whew, it was really cold!
  • We haven´t totally moved in to the new flat yet but we´ve been sleeping there for 2 weekends now. The house is growing on me and I kinda like the feeling. The thing is, I´m still uncomfortable using a new pillow  (because it´s flat ) and lying on a new bed and .. new bed sheets. I missed my old high pillow and ratty sheets, might as well bring them in soon too. Old habits really die hard.
So there goes my weekend. How about yours? ;)

xoxo,

Che

What a beautiful-looking couch you have there! It looks so comfy :)

Ah, I love my fluffy pillows! Actually they say it's better for your neck and spine to lay flat, but I'd rather have my big pillows. I would die happy with them.

Nice black outfit and the scarf addition makes it pop!

What a lovely weekend you got! Ours was good too, since my in-laws visited us for the first time since we moved to our new home and we all had a great time together. Right now, I'm in the capital city, visiting my fiends and siblings. Have a great weekend Che!

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 guilty pleasure since last week. I can eat this e

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 Spanish s

Flyday Fridays: Paris (part 1)

Image
The first time I went to Paris was in early spring. It was raining and gloomy but that didn´t stop me from falling in love with this romantic city. Here are some things to do and places to visit when you´re in Pa-gheee . ;) 1, 2, 3: Get lost inside le Louvre,  pass by   Mona Lisa´s room and get mesmerized by her coy smile and if you like ancient jewelry, be enthralled by the museum´s jewelry collection. Even the bishop´s crozier is bejeweled! 4: Admire the Sainte Chapelle´s amazing ceiling, structure and colorful stained glass windows. 5,6: Fall in line (entrance is free!) and admire the sculpture and stained windows of the Notre Dame. By this time you´re very tired and so take a rest at the park/garden at the back of the church. Later you can cross the small bridge and have your lunch at one of the numerous creperies and restaurants in the small island. 7,8: After a light lunch, take the metro and go to Montmartre and visit the Sacré Coeur. Be careful o
