Going

Image
Yep, here I am again. This time by train, I'm headed to Madrid to spend a couple of days. But, going by train means 12 hours (almost) of no sleep. I gotta keep myself busy so I got the movie Frozen and The Hunger Games and a couple of episodes on my iPad. And this little fella to keep me company: Have a great weekend! :) XOXO, M

Yoga

Image
Yep. It's thursday and you know what that means...YOGA! In a few minutes I'll be streching and twisting and wishing my body could bend a little further. And it'll be all worth it. Outfit? Black leggings and whatever publicity tshirt I get my hands on first. Leggings: OYSHO Flannel shirt: LA SENZA Tshirt: publicity tshirt from an electric company Boots: CAT Wanna give it a try home, yes? Namaste, M

Monochrome

Image
Black has always been one of my favourite colours. It has the ability to make you look casual and relaxed and, when required, makes you look sophisticated and chic. My favourite items include my pair of CAT boots, my leather biker jacket, dresses and my BIMBA & LOLA tote. And eyeliner! After a week of work and running around, I decided to wear a monochrome ensemble today. But for me, wearing an ensemble like this requires a pop of colour: shoes, bag or makeup, one must contrast. Pants: ZARA Tshirt: H&M Jumper: OYSHO Beanie: OYSHO Scarf: PRIMARK Boots: UGG Tote: BIMBA & LOLA Eyeliner: LUSH Lipstick: SEPHORA Hey, know what? Have a wonderful weekend!! XOXO, M

Almost time to celebrate

Since my celebrations will be happening later in the evening, with a nice late dinner, here's a sneak of the reason why and what I'm wearing: A little black dress with a hint of pink and my bf oh so concentrated playing Haydn! Have a wonderful evening and an amazing weekend! XOXO, M

Fighting the rain

Image
The last couple of days have been absolutely horrible. Between the rain and the cold, I find myself wearing the same boots everyday and have no clue as what to do with my hair. Usually I end up putting a beanie and as soon as get to work, I do a very sloppy ponytail to get the hair out of my eyes. Waking up yesterday, I felt inspired by all the hours I spent pinning and browsing on Pinterest . I decided to make a high bun with a braid on the back of my head. As for the clothes, a skirt and a lace blouse felt perfect to add a feminine touch and to contrast with my boots. Lace blouse: ZARA Skirt: H&M Ring: ACCESSORIZE Necklace: vintage Star earrings: BIMBA & LOLA Red earrings: STONE BY STONE Have an awesome day, even if it's raining! XOXO, M

It's time to grow up

Isn't it funny how everyone loves tshirts? We buy and buy tshirts and then a time comes when you have to stop and think if it's still apropriate to wear tshirts. I mean, going to work everyday wearing tshirts isn't a very good thing. And this has happened to me.  Working as an assistant has made me reconsider my outfits and what should I wear as work outfits. And so my search for blouses began. Although my love for tshirts has not gone away, I acquired some more sophisticated choices: chiffon with an embroidery in the back and black and white peplum blouse. É engraçado como as tshirts são um item tão apreciado. Compramos e compramos tshirts até à altura em que temos de parar e repensar se continuam a ser adequadas. Ir trabalhar todos os dias de tshirt não é a melhor opção. E isto passou-se comigo. Trabalhar como assistente fez-me repensar o meu guarda-roupa e as minhas escolhas para usar no trabalho. E assim começou a minha procura de blusas. As tshirts continuam a estar no
