Flower Power

 //Pants: Massimo Dutti //T-Shirt: James Perse // Heels: Stuart Weitzman

I know flower pants might be a bit of a passé now, when heading to new season.

Controversially, it makes me want to wear them even more!

" A third way to spot a fashion victim [...] is to note how many of her clothing choices were inspired by the season's trends. One trend [...] is lovely. Two trends [...] can be quite lovely too. Three trends and we start entering dangerous territory."

- Nina Garcia

Casuality

 //Blouse, Cardigan, Boots: Zara //Jeans: H&M //Bag: Gucci //Scarf: Chevignon

There are days when one has to run around the city like a crazy person, carrying half the world in a bag.

That's when it comes handy to wear boringly steady mid heel boots and a tote larger than life.

Park Life

//Tunic: Dige //Leggings: American Apparel //Biker Jacket: Only // Boots: Giuseppe Zanotti //Bag: Balenciaga

Last Sunday, after a delicious veggie lunch in La Condesa, we headed to the park to let the little one play with his doggie mates.

As you can imagine, these trips always follow a muddy paw stain count. Dirt, mud and sand is literally all over the place; clothes, car seats...you name it. Today even my mans cheek had little sandy kisses; Nelson loves his Daddy-O and is not ashamed to show it.

Hence this casual, easy-to-wash Outfit of the Day.

Shorts of the Season

 //Shorts: H&M //Blouse: H&M //Tights: Wolford //Ankle Boots: Chloé //Bag: Gucci

I refuse to use shorts only during S/S season.

These tweed ones go perfectly well with black opaque tights all year round.

Neighbourhood Watch

 //Blouse: Dolls //Jeans: Cheap Monday //Ballerinas:Azaleia do Brazil //Sunnies:Surf Shop

Today me and Nelson were keeping all the abuelitos of nearby buildings on neighbourhood watch.

Granny-spotting outfit consisted of V-neck/back silky blouse from Dolls (Colombian brand), thou ol´faithful - and already ol' faded - Cheap Monday jeans (note to my self: next time when stop over in Stockholm, get more!) and flats from Brazil that I had to buy last time traveling as the airline company lost my luggage.

Something White

//Dress: Korety //Pantyhose: Falke //Ankle Boots: Zara

One day last December it was cold as hell, dark as hell and as ugly outside as only in December it can get. 

At 7PM as I was finally getting out of the office, it was half raining outside, an ugly head ache was creeping in, and my stomach was starting to make embarrassing noise because of the hunger. All I wanted to do was to get home and eat take away pad thai out of cartoon box. And get rid of the day's absolutely hideous clothes, hence the laundry day -uniform...

 That's when it hit me.

I had promised to show my face at an art exhibition opening in half an hour! 

It was supposed to be my friend's big night, invitees were la crème de la crème of the town's artsy and hip.

So, I did what every gal would do: hit the nearest shop and bought the first decent looking thing before jumping into a taxi.

The night was a success (probably thanks to the sponsor, a wine company) and the dress was OK.

Just that at home I happened to study a little closer it's neck slip. It read in a very nice handwriting:

"Maternity Dress - Beautiful Expecting"

Seeing Red

//Dress: Luani //Leggings: American Apparel //Biker Boots: Giuseppe Zanotti // Bag: Miu Miu

Mondays are better face with strong colors.

Red lips are an easy way to cheat on make up. You don't really need to stuff the face with anything else. Just lipstick and ta-daa! You'll look totally put together!

My choice, now and forever, is MAC's Matte in Russian Red.
