I start again

Start again - Kaskade

I'm back! It's been a very tedious and difficult week, I had too much work, too many papers to organize for my national exchange (to Guadalajara, Mexico! how exciting!) but I also was sick since last weekend, so I had no energy to post anything. Now I'm better and I have many new ideas to blog :)

For the moment, I leave you this outfit I've been loving because it's my first bright yellow piece I got from OASAP, I was a little afraid of it but I knew I could make it work.

I need all the friends I can get - Camera Obscura

Weekend finally. Every year is getting harder, I think now I'm starting to understand why a lot of adults are stressed all the time, worrying about money, work, family, etc. I just finished my professional social service, but I'll start to work in the same place next week (they liked a lot my work so I'm staying part-time!). That means I'll have no vacations and no time to rest, at least for now. 

But there's something that cheers me up every morning, and that is: dressing up and make-up time. It's like my "happy hour" of the day because I can think about what I'm going to wear that day or how I'm gonna do my make-up. I believe it's very important to have this kind of therapy, especially if you have a difficult schedule like me. Maybe you won't spend an entire hour getting ready, but I think everyone should give themselves a full hour of fun and entertaiment, could be a sport, a delicious meal, shopping, etc. For me is: clothes!

A heartbeat drives you mad

Dreams - Fleetwood mac

Feminine. That's what this jumpsuit says about the woman who is wearing it, I think anything with a sweetheart cut it's very girly and coquette-ish. 

It was cold that day when I went to a sushi restaurant for dinner with my boyfriend, still I knew I wanted to wear something special because we don't see each other during the week; he's living in another city because of his work and I only get to see him on weekends, of course I want to look great for him! So, even with a cold weather I used my warm and cozy tights under the jumpsuit, a floral sheer blouse and a coat on top of everything.

Healthy lifestyle

I lost a lot of weight 2 years ago, about 24 pounds. Since that moment, I've been trying to keep a healthy lifestyle because I want to avoid any serious illness in the future and mantain my weight (also, who doesn't want to lose a few pounds after holidays?)

I'm not an expert nor a nutritionist so I'll not give you a full diet but tips that work for me. I hope you find this tips useful and maybe not everything will suit your lifestyle but at least you get an idea of what can you do to improve your choices.

Save some face, you know you've only got one

Smile like you mean it - The Killers

After taking the photos for this outfit I noticed it's a great chic and simple outfit for Valentine's day, it's not screaming "red and pink" because the red is so subtle. Of course, this is great if you do anything casual like going out for a coffee, a movie or a walk in the city. 

Hope you have great plans for Valentine's Day! I don't celebrate it because I find it quite tacky but hey, that's just me, I'm not romantic at all!

Spring wishlist

Romwe color block dress, sequin loafers , silver nailpolish, Romwe white shirt, mint jeans.

Are you getting ready for spring too? :)

Turn to stone

Ellie Goulding - Lights

I always feel comfortable in neutrals, especially those days where you have to be at work, school or any other formal institution. Maybe this outfit isn't for your work but the thing is neutrals are always the answer! I have collected a large number of pieces in black, nude, cream, brown, grey... now I'm only looking for special pieces with a "kick" and an interesting touch.

The moment I saw this shirt from Sheinside I knew it had to be mine, it has 3 great details: the collar is fake leather and detachable, it's sheer so it means you can layer it easily and finally, the amazing back slightly longer. Maybe you can't picture yourself in this outfit at work/school but think about a skinny jean with flats, the same bag and a jacket on top, don't you think it could work great? 

Don't forget to add shiny and metallic accesories, you must look awesome in neutrals, not boring!

Hey baby, what's that sound

Martin Solveig - Night out

Playing with proportions can be a little tricky sometimes, especially now with this trendy jumpers which are asymmetrical, too big or too slouchy sometimes. My friend even asked me if this jumper was from my grandma! but I think it looks pretty cool don't you think? edgy touches like a bodycon skirt, a statement necklace and modern make-up can dress up any simple piece.
