Flyday Fridays: My Favorite Clutches

Image
Hello, hellooo! Today, I´ll be talking about some of my favorite clutches and/or pouches. They´re cute, handy and light to ¨lug¨ around, don´t you think so? ;) I just make sure to put them on my lap when I sit on the table because I usually tend to forget things which don ´t  come with a sling or a handle, hahaha! For those who may ask, I don´t really know the exact difference between a clutch bag or a pouch bag but what I do know is that all of these are small bags  without a handle or a sling which are carried by the hand and which can be ¨clutched¨ / placed under your arms, okies ? ;) Anyway, here are some of my favorites which you see most often in the blog. I´m a clutch collector and these are just part of what I have in my closet. 1. Leather Clutch This is my go-to clutch when going out for some drinks with the hub z or with my girlfriends. I´ve had this since two and  a half years ago. It has this nice brown leather color which matches with everything, ...

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

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 ...

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!

WIWW: Gray and and Teal

Image
Oh, hi there(again)! I´ve missed all of you, have you missed me too? ;) I got a free day off from my hectic ¨school schedule¨ and what way to spend it wisely but snap some photos even on a very wet day. I would´ve love it if it´s snow that´s falling but it´s nothitng but rain, rain, rain. Anyway, as I´ve been telling you in my last post, I wear nothing but pants and sweater these days and so the other day when I decided to wear a skirt, I just had to take some photos of  the outfit. So here it is, gray on a gray day but at least I get to pair it with teal, one my favorite autumn-winter colors and my jewel necklace for extra color. So how do I look? ;) coat(old) - Mango, top - local store, skirt(SS14) - Bershka, clutch( AW13 ), necklace - Zara , shoes - local store Christmas is just around the corner, is your Christmas shopping done? Mine, almost! Gotta go, school work isn´t done yet for this trying hard school gal. Hugs, Che PS : Linking up with Lind...

WIWW: Yellow Mode

Image
Holaaaa! Oh well, it looks like autumn came on time because we´re having cooler weather this week to as low as 9ºC at night time. We still have sun but the air gets colder every time especially in the early morning. I´m not complaining though because finally I can wear my long sleeved knits and can layer as much as I can. I´m wearing yellow today to celebrate the fantastic summer that we had. It was really good while it lasted! :) I´ve already worn the blue necklace, brown leather clutch and yellow flats a lot of times here in the blog save for the floral skirt which I´ve worn only once in one of my WIWW posts and so this outfit might look similar to you. This is what I usually do when I create a new look, I mix old and new to create something new. Makes sense or no? ;) Pardon the gloomy pics, we took this on a very cloudy day a few weeks ago and yes, as usual my photos aren´t updated but I assure you, they go well with the cloudy and cold weather that we´re having to...

Flyday Fridays: Purple on the Greens

Image
Hello, hello! Continuing on with my bright color phase, I present this purple and cream combination taken lots of weeks ago in one of the parks here. Whenever we have sunny days like this particular day, we usually stop by any of the parks around here and munch on my homemade sandwiches called as ¨bocadillos¨   here in Spain. It´s the kind where a baguette bread is sliced lengthwise and  stuffed with any of these: pan grilled chicken or beef with pimientos or jamon serrano and cheese or with assorted Spanish chorizos which makes it a worthy dinner fare coupled with a salad or fruit or even wine. I´m sure your drooling right now, hahaha. My version  is usually tuna, sliced eggs, lettuce, tomatoes with or without white asparagus, yummy and healthy! :) Back to what I wore, I´m into layering dainty necklaces lately. The thing is, when you wear more than one necklace around your neck, chances are that that all the chains and clasps will get stuck togetther at the...

WIWW: Silver, Gray and Yellow

Image
Hola, hola! :) I think I´m in love with the yellow-silver-gray color palette these days. Just look at my WIWW post last week , it almost has the same color palette as what I´m posting today! You see, I dress up in phases. I have a blue, red or whatever color or color palette phase, a bag phase, a shoe phase and even a jewelry phase, lol! Do you dress up in phases too? ;) Anyway, I´ve already debuted this two-tone necklace in the blog but you didn´t get to see it up close. So here it is, so pretty, no? It´s my current and fave and yes, I´m on this two-tone necklace phase right now. ;) I wore this outfit the other day when I had a pre-anniversary lunch with the hub z, he must have liked what I wore because he kept  looking at me from head to toe while we´re having lunch, hahaha! And like always, a blooper shot just before I go. I kinda like the ¨ Hey you!¨ expression  with the one hand almost on the hip  pose. hahaha! top , necklace - Zara,...

Flyday Fridays: Animal Prints and Yellow

Image
Just a short post for you today with this simple travelling outfit: If there´s any redeeming piece in this wrinkled top and blue jeans getup, it must be this leopard necklace, don´t you think? ;) And I just had to show you my silver and gold bangle bought from my trip in Toledo, Spain last year. You must VISIT the jewelry stores in Toledo, they´re well- made and very affordable too! I paired  the two-tone bangle with a mixed leather bracelet for fun. bangle - from a jewelry store in Toledo, Spain, leather bracelet(old) - Massimo Dutti Pardon the grainy photos, these were taken at the small hallway of our hotel room, the only place where I can take a full body shot, hahaha! top - Zara, jeans - Primark,   necklace (very old) - Blanco, shoes - Bimba & Lola That´s it for now. Have a fun weekend ahead, y´all! :) Hugs, Che PS: Linking up with Style Elixir´s Friday´s Fab Favorites , Lena B and Rachel´s Passion for Fashion Friday  Simple Sequins´ F...
