I Seek Inspiration goes abroad

Image
Hey everyone! I promised to tell you over the weekend my traveling destination. Next wednesday (very early in the morning) I'm leaving for... *drums* Granada! South of Spain, very hot weather, music festival and my boyfriend. Could it be any better? Oh, and the view of Sierra Nevada to complete the picture. I'll leave you with some pictures found on google of things I really want to see! Hopefully by next sunday I'll be posting my own pictures of the city! I'm really excited and can't wait to go!! Have a great week! XOXO, M

Things that go in my bag: Summer must-haves!

Image
Hey everyone! I hope you're all enjoying this wonderful friday, lots of sun and warm weather! Been to the beach? Walk in the park? Well, I was working in the afternoon and now I'm home, just relaxing! It seems like Summer is really here and so I've made some changes in the items I carry around with me in my bag. Others are there all year but get used a lot more often this time of the year. So, a digital camera , perfect for capturing those moments at the end of the day, the light of the sunset giving a special glow to the pictures. Baby whipes , the best thing to cool me down; these cucumber HUGGIES are really fresh, plus the smell is really awesome! A bottle of water , just what the doctors say we all need in very very hot days and a lip balm , for smooth and moisturized lips. Finally, a pair of shades and these are my current favourite ones. The little heart is just adorable! Camera: FUJIFILM Baby whipes: HUGGIES Shades: H&M Lip balm: THE BODY SHOP Hap

Shopping!!

Hello lovely people! I sorry for not posting so regularly but I've had little time to think about things that are not related to schools and classes. It's the end of the school year and we need to have everything ready for next year and that work needs to be done now. Hopefully things will calm down next week and I'll be free to enjoy my days away with my boyfriend. If you like I Seek Inspiration on Facebook , you probably saw the pictures I posted and you might have guessed where I'm going, but I'll only tell you the destination during the weekend. Now, to the topic of the post: SHOPPING!  I love shopping and if you love it too, now's one of the best times to do so since sales' season is just starting. And I decided to go see what THE BODY SHOP had on sale and I wasn't disapointed.

A black item is the key

Hello everyone! I'm back with an outfit that incorporates one of my favourite colours: black. It doesn't matter if it's a dress, a bracelet, eyeliner or a jacket, to me a look can never go wrong if you incorporate black somewhere. And today it was my top. Just an average black lycra top with my perfect high waisted shorts. And after checking the weather forecast for the next 7 days, I'll be wearing a lot of shorts and mini skirts! Seems like high temperatures and sunny days have finally arrived! Top: old Shorts: H&M Belt: STRADIVARIUS Necklace: STONE BY STON E Rings: STONE BY STONE Bracelet: ACCESSORIZE Earrings: ACCESSORIZE Eyeliner: Control , LUSH Have an awesome tuesday! XOXO, M

Back to another week! Hey everyone! I hope your week is starting off just great! It seems like Summer is here, we're having 30º in Lisbon today, so I'm feeling really lazy. Oh, and Paco is back and he is also really lazy! I only left the house to walk Paco in the morning, so no outfit post today. But I wanted to say hello to you all! XOXO, M

Hey! Here I am, resuming my posts. Outfit post seemed the best way to start and since the pictures turned out good, I can finish the post while I'm on the subway. I dyed my hair again, so the colour's much bright today. I still don't know why the pictures make it seem red instead of the dark pink it looks like. Oh well... As for the outfit: you know the shorts too well by now and the top is the one I showed last night, from HARD ROCK . Top: HARD ROCK , Barcelona Shorts: OYSHO Shoes: CONVERSE Necklace: Evenstar, EBAY Long earrings: from Turkey Small earrings: STONE BY STONE Do you like the outfit? And what about the hair? :) XOXO, M

Comeback!

Hey everyone! I'm sorry for being away these last days, but I've barely had time to write or even take good pictures. Hopefully I'll be able to resume my posts and to start off just right here are some pictures of the last days! A picture of Paco in my bed, yesterday's party in Lisbon (everyone drinks beer, but I'm faithful to Coca-Cola), today's manicure and rings and headpiece and finally a gift my mommy brought from her trip (I love HARD ROCK merchandising!!).  I'll do my best to publish a decent post tomorrow. Any preferences on the subject? Let me know! XOXO, M
