Look of the day n. 2 - Polka Dots & Roses

Hi there!

I just thought I'd do a good ol' outfit post, just to get back to my blogging routine... ;) This dress is my mom's and I looove it... It's so simple in shape, but I really don't feel like it needs much else, the polka dots do the rest.

Black patent leather Pretty Ballerinas

Charles & Keith quilted bag

Vintage foulard

Bimba&Lola golden wings bracelet

Vintage chain&brooch

I paired it with my beloved 1st (and so far, only) pair of Pretty Ballerinas... *-* [sigh] which I also love, and with this pretty quilted bag from a brand called Charles & Keith (I bought it a couple of years ago at Singapore's airport on my way back from Sydney). I'm not usually a big fan of quilted bags/Chanel imitations, but I made an exception for this one, as I think it's not at all "on your face" and the quality is not so very bad.

We took the pictures at this beautiful park that's near my home, and that I love to stroll around in... If you  remember, you saw it in full bloom here. I'm not sure what species these flowers are, I just know that I absolutely love them! :)

Anyway, have a very happy and productive Friday and stay posted for more... ;)

Colourful Beading & Floral Print

Hey there!! :)

Just doing a quick post before I get back to work... a big pile of Patternmaking homework is waiting right here by my side.

I just wanted to show you a couple of pretty things I bought this weekend... *-* The first is a pair of beaded sandals. I love them because they're so colourful and graphic, and have this sort of ethnic or tribal vibe.

Camila's beaded sandals from U-Casas

This is the grandma jewelry I bought in Bruxelles... ^^

They actually remind me of the last Spring/Summer 2011 Missoni collection, I guess because of their choice of colours, playing a lot with black. I could even relate them to the Proenza Schouler show and their brilliantly modern and fun version of "lady-like" style.

Both from Style.com

The other thing I wanted to show you was this super cute backpack I bought at Blanco for I think 20€... *-*

Isn't it the cutest thing? I love it because it's such a happy little bag, and my laptop fits in it, along with all the rest of my stuff... :)

So anyway!! I leave you with what I hope are happy thoughts, and a promise to post soon about St George's day... ;) Have a great beginning of the week!

Sunny park in the Spring

Hello, dears!! Happy Earth day!!

Although the weather today is verging more towards a beautifully wet gray (or maybe precisely because of that), the pics I'm gonna show you are much brighter. They are from last weekend, when we took a family stroll around a park close by, agreeably surprised to find it in full bloom... :)

I hope you have a happy Friday, everyone, and enjoy the Spring!! :)
