That Girl With A Camera

Last weekend I went to the north of the country with my man! We decided to go away for a few days and went to Oporto . The weather was beautiful, perfect for walking and having nice lunches by the river! Here are some pictures of our little trip.  Outfit #1 Dress and belt: STRADIVARIUS Tights: HOUSE OF HOLLAND Legwarmers: CALZEDONIA Boots: UGG Dark Blue jacket: HARD ROCK CAFE Paris Lighter Blue jacket: from China Glasses: RAY BAN Bag: BIMBA & LOLA Outfit #2 Skirt: ZARA Jumper: OYSHO Tights: BLANCO Scarf: from Turkey White and Red bag: THE BODY SHOP (some items are the same as in Outfit #1) XOXO, M

So, aparently I got some mail today. I knew I was getting it, I just didn't know the exact day nor what would be in my mail. But today I got it! When I opened it I wanted to say "OMG OMG OMG, GM!!" A friend sent it to me and I couldn't be more happy! Thank you GM, thank you TOPSHOP , thank you HOUSE OF HOLLAND ! TOPSHOP /  TOPSHOP / HOUSE OF HOLLAND Thank you G!tons of Love to you! And, my beauties...TOMORROW IS FRIDAAAAAAAAAY!! How's your weekend gonna be? Tell me everything! XOXO, M

I know it has already passed, but here are the pictures of my Valentine's Day. I had lunch with my honey at an italian restaurante, Casanova . The day was absolutely beautiful, I didn't have to wear my jacket during the meal!

XOXO, M

Hello everyone! I'm back after a few days without posting and I'm sorry for that! I hope everyone had a wonderful V's Day! Today I want to share a little wishlist I made. I called it "February Wishlist" but it is really a much longer term wishlist. I combined accessories with clothing and some LUSH products. One of the bath bombs I already have, just waiting for the right moment to be used. The clothing items are things I really like and since I love orient-themed things, kimonos had to be here. I must confess my "best friend" this winter has been a chinese jacket my mother gave me (she got tired of it, lucky me). I'm wearing it here . And now, the February Wishlist! Two kimonos and a blouse with a bird-and-flowers theme, very oriental-like in my opinion. Also, the black pencil skirt, I must buy one. It is as important as the LBD. All of these are from ZARA . I saw the cat sweater today, in OYSHO , as well as the eye masks and found them...

After my post " Be my valentine: part 2 ", a friend suggested I do something with vests. I asked her to pick some images she liked of vests for boys and girls. I collected some suspenders/braces and this post is the result of our searches. I hope you all like it.  BENETTON and MASSIMO DUTTI BERSHKA and STRADIVARIUS on Ebay on Ebay ZARA H&M and TOPSHOP With a special thank you to Té,  XOXO, M

Today was a day to keep it simple. A pair of blue pants with a black tshirt. High heels, but not too high. Just a normal tuesday. Tshirt: ZARA Pants: BIMBA & LOLA Ankle boots: PULL & BEAR Long necklace: GATOS DE RUA Necklace 2: portuguese jewelry XOXO, M

Pants aren't really my thing, so I wear a lot of skirts and shorts. And in the winter, tights are a must-have item!! If there's a brand that really knows how to make great ones, is CALZEDONIA . The previous post already featured a pair of tights from the Spring/Summer collection and aparently the SS13 catalogue became available today. I picked the images with my favourite tights! I already have one pair, gotta save for the other 2 :) XOXO, M

Yesterday I only had time to show the pieces, today I show how it actually looks on me (plus, the stockings really are something amazing!) I absolutely LOVE the tights! They look so pin up-ish! :) Have a great monday :) XOXO, M

Rainy days! That's right! I hate rainy days. They make me lazy (more than usual) and if I have to go out there's always the what-to-wear issue. Today is one of those days. After a GREAT SUNNY WEEK, sunday comes grey and gloomy as much as possible. And I have to go out. And I don't want to wear my CAT boots. I want something girly and delicate, but there's no way around it. So, I improvised. What do you think? Top and Skirt: ZARA Tights and boot cuffs: CALZEDONIA Boots: CAT Bought the tights yesterday, aren't they adorable? :) The boots have some faux fur cuffs to make them less agressive. Success? Have a great sunday and week as well. XOXO, M

The last images are of the new TOUS shop in the downtown of Lisbon. The shop was already a jewelry shop before TOUS . It was a beautiful antique shop, very traditional, that had many pieces of antique and traditional portuguese jewelry. It was sad to see it go, but TOUS did a great job in maintaining the architectural traces of the original building and creating a very refined and beautiful shop. A must see for everyone, it's wonderful! Have a great weekend, XOXO M
