Dressing Up For Me

Howdy! Do you still mix prints? I still do! top, culottes and shoes- Zara, tote ba g- Mango, necklace - Bimba & Lola, sunglasses - Massimo Dutti Although summer is in full swing right now, there are still days where the temperature drops to  21ºC maximum and so I can get by wearing a light knitted top over anything,; a pair of jeans, skirt or in this case my good ole  cullotes from three seasons ago. I just make sure that the colors/ color motiff blend with each other, in this case, I mix a black and white striped top with a same colored color combo of chevron prints at the bottom and there you go! I stayed with the two-color theme by wearing black Mary Janes and a black tote bag for a more harmonious ensemble but accented it with a shell necklace from Bimba & Lola which was scored from the sales about three years ago. So if like me you also do mix prints, what are the usual color combos you opt for? Have a lovely week ahead, y´all! :) Hugs, ...

Happy wild haired  windy Wednesday, luvs ! ;) The weather´s been going hot and cold(literally) these past days and though I stll can wear skirts, I had to wear tights with it too. Looks like the barelegged days has finally ended for this gal . ;) Anyway, I found this printed ¨strips¨ of a skirt at the tail end of the summer sales and thought this could make a great autumn outift because of it´s print. Leopard is hot nowadays but I prefer tiger, lol! ;) I paired it with  a marbled gray knitted jacket for some subtle mix printing and a peachy colored metallic clutch for some cutesy factor on the whole look. So what do you think? And because I´m a funny girl, here´s one last shot of my wild hair before I go. So fierce, no? Hahaha! jacket and clutch (summer sale )- Stradivarius, top and skirt(sale )- Zara, necklace(old) - H&M Enjoy the midweek, y´all !

Happy Wednesday, dahlings ! Sorry for being MIA last Monday, the hubz and I went on a long weekend trip to London and we just came back last night. Anyway, here´s a what-I-wore set of photos which were taken at the church garden of a town called Tui in Galici a(western part of Spain) the the other week. I´ve never tried the dotted and denim combination before and so this was an experimental outfit. Do you think it worked? ;) The short chambray cropped top was lucky find from last year´s summer sales while the dotted circle skirt was from this year´s sales. I wore my old fuchsia colored bag for a pop of color. You´ll be seeing more of this combination in my travel posts photos because I wore this the whole day while travelling from one town to another and so don´t be surprised if this shows up three or more times in the blog, lol! top , sandals and bag (all old) -Zara, skirt - Bershka I´m glad the plane landed on time and there weren´t delays on our rountrip flight ...

It´s another Friday again, my friends! So how did your week go? This posts´s gonna be quick because we´re on a road trip right now in the western part of Spain hoping not to get lost along the way, hahaha!. Anyway, last Saturday, the chefs in my city headed by Chef Senen González took up the challenge to make biggest  Spanish Tortilla (omelette) in the world and make it to the Guiness World Record. While waiting for the actual coooking to start we sat on a bench. Here´s what I wore: About two hours later, here´s the final product: a HUGE Spanish tortilla which weights 1.5 metric tons and whose diameter is 5 meters and 20 centimeters. The great news is my city and it´s dedicated chefs  made it to the Guiness World Record´s biggest Spanish Tortilla(Omelette) in the world ! :) We fell in line for the taste test and we´re given a sizable portion for tasting. Althoguh this is what you call as the classic tortilla with basic ingredients( eggs, homegrown potatoes f...

Good morning my friends! :) As promised, here´s another photo-heavy travel post which I´ll start with Aveiro´s cathedral: and the museum´s door, hahaha! Anyway, Aveiro(Portugal) is a bustling city in Centro Portugal whose most important industry is salt production. It has a beautiful palace-museum which is a must see especially the chapel( my pic is a blah, no pics). The capital city of the same name is also called ¨ Venice of Portugal¨ because of it´s beautiful canals ( though not as grand and as vast as Venice´s) and colorful ¨gondolas¨. I was quite hesitant to ride the gondola at first because the route is quite short but  we had the best tour guide in the gondola who spoke  English, Portuguese and Spanish which kept us informed about the city´s history and important buildings as we glide along the river. One of the most informative rides that we´ve had actually than Venice, Italy. Here´s what I wore, dark jeans and a light leopard printed top because th...

Hola, holaaa! The wind got crazy and cold last Sunday and so I decided that a little layering would do to survive the day. Although I´m a bit hesitant of crop tops  ( the last time I wore one was when I was 13 years old and that was a century ago, hahaha!) , they can make a great layering piece especially when wearing a button down. See? ;) So what do you think of  cropped sweaters? They make the perfect layering piece, no? button down - Sfera, cropped sweater - Pimkie, pants - Zara So how´s the week so far?

Good morning, friends! I´m done with the yellow-silver/gray phase for now although I´m still stuck with gray(lol!), this time in the form of a short gray denim jacket. I changed the yellow for some mint colored  ballerinas for a change. ;) Do you like the new backdrop? I´m kinda tired of showing you the wooden bridge  at the back of my place and the very old church where we usually go to as my backdrop for my photos and so last week, I asked the hubz to take me to the other barrio and voila , I found these at the park! Nice change, indeed. :) I scored  this  two-tone mint green ballerinas in the summer sales last year. It was the last pair and in my size ( which is very hard to find in Spain) and so I grabbed it without blinking twice and thought about wearing it on the first day of spring. Then I totally forgot about them until I did another spring cleaning last weekened. top- Promod, jeans - H&M, denim jacket - Zara, balle...

Hi, guys! Sorry, I was gone again. Somebody in the family died last week and I felt that it was inappropriate to post nice and happy things when you´re actually feeling sad. So I had  to step out from the blog for a while and attend to the real world. Anyway, I´m back. Today, I´m experimenting with mixing cool colors together but paired them with a white and blue dotted print to make the whole look more interesting. I´ve noticed that silver looks great with dark blue and that pointed toe pumps are REALLY leg lengthening. And now I´m ready to hear your ¨I told you so! ¨. ;) top and necklace - Zara, skirt(old) - Stradivarius, clutch(old )- Blanco, shoes - Zendra And just so you´ll know, here´s my first combination, it´s just that I don´t really like how the cross pattern of my shoes cuts my legs so I wore pumps instead and changed my clutch. :) So how have you been? xoxo, Che PS: Linking up with Style Elixir´s Style Sessions , The Pleated Poppy´s Wha...
