Dressing Up For Me

Hello, everyone! Just a short post for today. This was what I wore when we visited the foggy town of Lleida near Barcelona last Friday. I was sure that there´ll be a lot of walking going on and so I was in my most comfy walking shoes. ;) I´m wearing everything old here and as usual making the most of layering thru the preppy look. jacket- New Yorker, jeans- Zara, button down- Massimo Dutti, necklace-Forever 21, bag-Misako, shoes- Comnverse How are you doin´with the Christmas shopping? I´m still not done yet although I only get to shop for a few persons because my family isn´t here. Lucky me, no? ;) Have a lovely Wednesday, all! xoxo, Che PS: I´m linking up with The Pleated Poppy´s What I Wore Wednesday , Kiwi Women Style´s Wardrobe Wednesday , Vodka Infused Lemonade´s Tres-Chic Fashion Thursday  and The Penniless Socialite and the Tiny Heart´s Look What I Got .

Happy Monday, everyone! So I left the weekend again without leaving a Flyday Friday post, soweeee ! Anyway, the hubz invited me to Barcelona on a long weekend ( it was a national holiday here in Spain last Friday)  and so I gladly went along with him in my thick sweater only to end up sweating in mild-weathered Barcelona. Bwahahaha! Anyway, here are some snippets from our short trip: I´m loving McDonald´s Mediterranean salad, I had this two nights in a row! We also tried their Mc Cafe´s chocolate cake and coffee, the cake was a bit dry (probably because it was the last slice and it was 11 pm) but the coffee was really good. Our Friday was spent in Lleida/Lerida, a small and one of the oldest towns of Catalonia. It was foggy and cold, say, 2 ºC cold when we got there but I like it there! I can´t get enough of the storks perched on the new cathedral´s tower making that weird cooing sound and you should visit their walled old cathedral sitting on top of the hill and o...

Hola, hola! top ,  skirt -Zara, sweater -H&M, clutch, necklace - Blanco, boots -thrifted Finally, we´re having a sunny week on this side of the world! This was what I wore last Sunday, another throw-it-all-in outfit in mixed prints( lace, stripes and a touch of leopard). Just another one of those days when I feel like dressing preppy but changed my mind in the middle and added a pastel colored skirt for a girly look.Weird, no? hahaha! So here´s the shot where I´m trying to look cool with my coat on my shoulders ( just like what other cool bloggers do) but fail miserably because the wind thinks otherwise, lol! Finished the whole look with my first and only long black coat: Have  a lovely mid-week, all!

Happy Monday, dahlings ! I thought I wouldn´t be showing you any more ( at least for this year) a photo of this jacket but here´s the last one ( promise!) while we were in Cuenca, Spain last month. I paired it with a burgundy and white printed sweater, the only burgundy thing that I bought this fall to add to my wardrobe. For someone, who´s not really into online shopping(I want to touch and hold my ¨loot¨ before buying it), I finally succumbed to it through a friend. Here´s my first, a Zara two-tone sandals which was also on sale from their website: And while everyone´s busy over Thanksgiving, I was also busy preparing my fudgy brownies c/o Martha Stewart´s recipe . My first try came out really, really nice. Flaky on top, chewy and chocolatey inside. I sprinkled walnuts on top too for that extra crunchy bite: Finally, here´s a sneak peak of my post this Wednesday: So how´s your weekend? Still busy on the cyber sales? It´s the second of December and I feel and see C...

Welcome to another Flyday Friday post posted on a Saturday, ooops ! I don´t know how many times I´ve featured Biarritz, France in my blog. Can´t help it, it´s my favorite coastal French town on this side of the world. This chic Basque paradise on the south of France is mesmerizing all-year round. Today, I´m showing you how it looks on a stormy day: This is the church of Sainte Engrace with it´s modern gothic style. Curiously, I´ve always admired it from afar but have never really looked inside. One of these days, I´ll do that for you. :) You can´t leave this place place without a scoop or two of French glace(ice-cream). I chose greean apple and salted caramel. Yum, yum!  I´ve been wearing this faux leather jacket since the start of fall. You ca see it in all of my pics lately, lol! Unfortunately, I can´t wear this now because we´re in full winter mode nowadays. So this will be the last time you´ll see me wearing this this year. So how´s Thanksgiving? We ...

Hola, hola! :) It´s quite expensive to be on trend all the time. Would you like to know how to dress trendy without breaking the bank? Instead of buying that red tartan jacket/top/skirt you´ve been coveting this season, buy a pair of red tartan tights. It´s a lot cheaper and you´ll never worry if you´ll not be wearing it again next year because  trends come and go, ya know . ;) sweater and clutch(old )- Pimkie, skirt (old)- Bershka, necklace(old) - Blanco, tights - Primark, shoes(old) -Xti Then just pair it with anything you have in your closet, an all black palette would be perfec t. Finish off with your fave accessories and jewellery and you´re done. Easy peasy, no? ;) What´s your take on this trend?

Hi, all! I wasn´t able to take outfit pics outside these days because of the long running bad weather in here, it´s been almost a month with nothing but rain and chilly winds from the north! So here´s another set of pics instead which were taken when we stopped by Toledo, Spain. After seeing these photos, I noticed that  my outfit matched with the background which is the Cathedral of Toledo. Is that good or bad? Pardon the really bad hair. This is my newly washed hair, you know. If you see me with nice hair, that would be my day old  or more than two days old hair because contrary to popular belief, my hair looks nicer after it gets dirtier by the day. Eeeew! Here´s to a nice week ahead to all of us! Ciao! Che PS: I´m linking up with Still being Molly´s Funday Monday , My Thrifty Chic´s Love It, Link It  and Style Elixir´s Style Sessions . Join us! :)
