The MINI girl

birkin 11:00 AM
Glitter sunnies. I've been totally addicted to collect sunglasses recently. I think it's a clue accessory than can make your outfit absolutely different, add some spark and glam to it instantly. So, when I heard about the Carrera X Jimmy Choo collection and saw the awesome design and styles, couldn't help and I knew I was lost. I'm not really a Carrera sunglasses...

Floral skirt on Christmas' Eve

christmas 6:30 PM
Christmas' Eve. Being honest I'm not really much into Christmas things and nor my family is. We usually do a small dinner and celebration with some special things or typical food and that's all. But I like to take more time on my hair and makeup, try new things and dress a little flashier than usual. This year I decided to go for this...

Noël dress

chanel lipstick 8:00 PM
Christmas and winter holidays. To all of you who follow me on Twitter and Google+ you may know I've been really busy this last two weeks, and that I've been really excited too for holidays to finally come. It's not about the ''Christmas mood'' around and the ''let it snow, let it snow'' thing. For me, the awesome part of Christmas is having...

Ballerina bun

ballerina bun 8:32 PM
Winter coats. Essential piece in my closet (and should be yours too!) when it starts being colder. Easy to wear almost anywhere, available on a wide range of colors, shapes and prices makes this clothing piece suitable for everybody. This one from Romwe plus being particularly warm and comfortable, adds a touch of elegance to my daily outfits and everyone who see it compliments me....

How to... Skincare tips

beauty tips 7:10 PM
(Image via fanpop.com) Skin is somewhat a difficult thing to manage. Staying bright, looking young and fresh may be a real problem, specially when dealing with acne or some pimples when you wake up. I've had cystic acne for years, and with sensitive skin the way to stop pimples isn't so easy. I've bought zillions of creams and treatments, but which seems to...

Snowflake

architecture 10:21 PM
Winter is already here. After a crazy October month with summer temperatures it's finally cold. And so cold that I had to literary drive out all my coats and warm jackets, because it has arrived really really quick. But it's fun, because I was really on a coat and fur jacket mood, just to change drastically the summer wardrobe and start matching with...

cosmetics 12:35 AM
(Anne Klein tartan jacket and rose necklace from local market) Deliveries of quarterly portfolios. Some of you may know I've been recently very busy with my last class projects around, so busy that I don't even have enough time to go out only few hours of my messy room, full of papers, floor plans, model pieces... That means no blogging, and spent the...

Tartan blazer

bag 7:00 PM
Tartan. Seems to be everywhere I go this season. Trousers, jackets, shoes... It feels absolutely crazy with this pattern and it's curious because as far as I remember, I used to wear it a lot when I was a child. Everything returns in fashion, you know. So, this tartan blazer is one of those pieces which might give your outfit a subtle print...

Monogram

architecture 10:00 AM
Tailored suit + statement bag. I'm really sorry for being so inactive around here these last days, but some final class projects are really near for presentation, so all the time I spend without my regular sleeping hours are for rendering 3D towers, calculating isolate estimations and so on. Life of architecture students is hard, but very rewarding! What all this means to me?...

Light and shadows

blazer 10:30 AM
Casual and chic outfit. This is the kind of look I choose for University: comfy, stylish, simple. A cool blazer with jeans and a necklace it's usually the best option for me. It feels like going to class on a tailored suit, but on a ''teen'' and less formal version. Blazers are cute because they let me express my daily mood as I...

Lady kimono

aupie 11:00 AM
The girl obsessed with kimonos. That's my new name. When oriental motifs started being trend again, you can't even imagine how happy I was. I don't know, Asian culture has always fascinated me, and I'm a real freak when talking about their fabrics, awesome patterns, typical clothing and so on. When I discovered Aupie, a new fashion online store, and saw this loose...

Aladino

black turban ASOS 9:00 AM
Turban girl. I'm not personally that kind of person who loves wearing hats, and hair accessories and only wears her hair as natural as possible. But I've been suffering a kind of obsession lately with turbans and fashion hair pieces, just to give my outfits a different touch, a bit more bohemian than usual, I don't know. So, after looking around like a...

How to: 10 fashion pieces worth the investment

accesories 9:30 AM
Inexpensive fashion on the go. One of my goals when I created this blog was to spread the word that being stylish is not expensive, and it is also really simple. Many people have asked me many times how I get to have a timeless, simple but very effective look whenever I go anywhere, no matter if it's an event, a night out with...

Benavente white kimono

benavente 9:00 AM
White kimono from Benavente collection ''Ikebana Tori''. As you may remember, I wrote a post about it about a month ago, when the team of YOUNIQUE came to deliver it personally to me :) I was really excited to finally wear it, but everything got complicated somewhat suddenly: trips, more pictures and projects to do, not really sure how to combine the kimono being all white,...

Madrid trip days 2 and 3

clarks 11:00 AM
Cultural and shopping tourism. After VFNO we had two more days of Madrid. We didn't only visited the typical places around the city, such as El Retiro or Gran Vía, but also enjoyed some vintage shopping around Velarde and Fuencarral, and outlet window shopping on Las Rozas Village which was really fun. I like the fact that you can find awesome and really...

In Madrid for VFNO 2013. Day 1

comfy outfit 11:00 AM
Madrid VFNO 2013. As you might know, I visited Madrid about two weeks ago to assist to my first Vogue Fashion Night's Out. Not only for that fashion event, but also to ''commemorate'' the beginning of my new academic year, and get used to the idea that I won't be probably traveling too far again until next holidays... To be honest, my opinion...

La vie en rose - Mister Spex contest

chic sunglasses 9:30 AM
Life behind pink crystals. You can see life in pink on this way, certainly. So, when Mister Spex crew asked me to enter on their Autumn Blogger Contest because of the launch of their own sunglasses line I just thought it would be a cool experience and also a great project to show you new eyewear ideas for this Autumn/Winter season. Anything to...

Tous K12 bag - Total white outfit

high waisted shorts 11:00 AM
Total white outfit. This is one of those outfits you just take off the closet and start playing around with the pieces, putting things on and mixing stuff. Apart from being a nice place to take pictures, our townhouse is a perfect storage place where we take everything we don't use during winter, including clothing and accessories. Or even some clothes we haven't...

BCBG Max Azria vintage halter dress

backless dress 11:00 AM
BCBG Max Azria. Since I discovered this brand in a vintage store in Madrid and did a bit of research about their collections and design lines, I must say I absolutely fell in love about it! It may be one of my favorite couture brands thanks to that je ne sais quoi BCBG has when putting together the different textures, volumes and shapes of...

Cinderella feel - Thrifted lace dress from New York

cheap designer shoes 11:00 AM
Vintage Cinderella dress. Here we finally go with a 90% vintage and New York made outfit! Do you remember this post about the vintage Ferragamo shoes for 25$? I think they look even greater paired on an outfit, specially if it's with a party or formal dress. Like this one made from lace I bought at Vintage Thrift West (286 Third Ave. between...

BEHIND THE DESIGN: Angelina Paldzyan, from Fashion Freedom

behind the design 11:00 AM
[...] ''For the fashion industry, I believe the digital aspect gives the designs a whole different feel- and that is what I think attracts people to it. It isn't the traditionally and commonly used method of hand painting and sketching'' [...] Meet Angelina Paldzyan, blogger and illustrator from Fashion Freedom, where she features her personal way to combine fashion and art on an universal...

Bennetton asymmetric dress

assymetric dress 11:00 AM
VFNO. As you're reading this, I'm preparing my suitcases and outfits once again this year for a flash three-day trip to Madrid, to enjoy Vogue's Fashion Night Out at the city and meet the new collections for 2014 Autumn/Winter season. Yes, I should be at my Architecture lessons but as I currently started them this week and Thursdays are a day off, it...
