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...

Sneak peek: 25$ pair of Salvatore Ferragamo shoes

cheap designer shoes 11:00 AM
Salvatore Ferragamo. Those shoes must be the biggest, most awesome and also most weird bargain I've never found on a vintage/thrift store. Not only because they're a pair of designer soles, but also because they're on an almost perfect condition (I think they were only worn once) except for the little and really imperceptible stains on them, maybe caused by time more than...

Crochet dress

crochet 11:00 AM
Crochet. After lace it's a fabric I really like, which gives any outfit that sweet, vintage touch. This dress is actually really old, not vintage at all because I bought it new from a local store, but it's been a lot of years since the last time I wore it (maybe the last time was when I was 12?). These dresses are really...

Mermaid like

american apparel 11:00 AM
A little bit of wildness. Summer means for me not only beach and relax, but also change and new things before starting the study period once again. This V-neck bodysuit is a great example, I think it belongs to a style I never tried before but which adds a bit of wildness and that casual touch to the outfit. Bye bye to knee length 50's style...

How to... Organize your makeup bag!

advice 10:00 AM
Makeup. It makes me feel more feminine, and helps to conceal those little flaws in my skin that are always there, like acne scars. It also helps sparkling up my outfits, as I consider a real challenge matching clothes with a makeup that highlights and balances the whole look on the perfect tandem. But, what to do when your makeup bag has gone...
