Striped

A new addition to my striped collection and my first striped dress. I bought it as a summer dress and I have been wearing it with leggings and boots and a cardigan since the weather is chilly. But me think this beauty is a little too short and a little too tight to be worn by itself, way skimpy for school.

Well, it fits me like a glove and is a “Small” size-wise. Do you think if I buy another one a of couple of size up, a medium or a large maybe; I can wear it by itself as a dress? Makes sense, no?!

My Valentine

This beauty got home yesterday: my Valentine’s day gift!
A 60’s vintage python skin, roomy and perfect!

What I loved this week:

Well, not exactly this week! Since I am trapped in school every day from dawn till dusk (ha ha ha!), I can’t find much visual inspiration so these are the stuff I loved recently.

These gorgeous shoes have been on my mind for last month or so. With their architectural design, being a cross-breed of wedges and platforms and their relatively affordable price, they have become my new obsession. I am specially in love with nude/neutral ones. Should I buy them?

Nude color handbags. I have to have one, the sooner the better! ‘nough said!

Relaxed paper-bag top pants. They don’t look good on me. That’s why I have avoided them but seeing a lot of them in street style weblogs and fashion rags, I have a crush on them. I should give them a chance, shouldn’t I? Well maybe; if I can muster up the courage try them on at least and more importantly a little shopping time!

Green week

Continues with these outfits:

I have experienced all shades of green this week, from olive to Kelly to pistachio and citrus and I come to one realization: I look good in green!

So much for me not liking green before because I thought it won’t look good on me!

And for whatever reason wearing green made me appreciate our gorgeous spring weather more, go figure!

Going Green

That’s what I’m doing this week and it’s not out of envy or concern for the environment. I am wearing green!

That’s said, I try to do my part for a greener planet. I recycle, buy and use materials from regenerating resources, all the appliances in my home are water and energy efficient, I buy local produce and try to minimize my carbon foot print, …

Also the big one: I’m researching and working to treat contaminated water, reduce pollution and reclaim water.

I think that’s more than enough, don’t you? So let me dress in peace without showy claims and declarations about being Green and Eco-friendly!

A week in chocolate

Or at least that was my intention last Monday. But as the week progressed I ventured into mocha and cognac and caramel territory. None as tasty as chocolate, I admit; but they added a much needed variety and kept my appearance from becoming boring. For that I am thankful!

Shopping happy!

Kind of like trigger happy but much safer to be around! Anyhow, two finds that I’m very happy to have bought and one I regret not buying. You agree, don’t you?

Themed week

I’ve been really busy and haven’t been able to post anything new, despite the fact that I’ve been dressing up every day.

To get back in the swing of things and start posting I came up with the idea of themed weeks and would dress in one color primarily for a week.

So here are my outfits for this week so far.

Can you guess what the color is for this week?
