For we have been through hell and high tide

 Hi! So this weekend my parents came to visit me and we spent the weekend walking around on the beach and the city. I took this pics today near the beach, although it was around 3 in the afternoon the day was a bit dark, but warm. I usually only wear two colors or maybe three in a outfit but here i'm wearing four colors, although very sober: black, white, grey and brown. I had a pair of cable knit socks a a chunky knit scarf in grey because the lapel of this tartan blazer is a dark grey not black (although in the pics it look very dark, almost black). I love to have lots of different black mini skirts because they are o versatile and a must for me this gorgeous one is from Young Hungry Free and it's so soft, kind of a scuba fabrics and the shape of it is soso sweet, so girly. I chose a shirt with a sort of texture in the front and tried to avoid the plain ones. Hope you like today's outfit. 

I know you, you know me

 

 

 

Hi! I love to insert summer light fabrics in my winter outfits, and if there is something you can easily transform from summery to a winter piece is a skirt, floral are my faves to do that, love the contrast between light fabrics and cozy warm ones. This one is a dress from Motel Rocks, i like to wear my dresses as skirts adding different kinds of tops, in this outfit i'm wearing a white/cream shirt and a chunky jumper over it, this way i can be warm. Took this pics today after classes and some of them are in the beach, i believe i like the beach more in cold days :) Just because it's raining on and off i wore my parka today, also because i love how it looks with the colors of the skirt/dress. Hope you like this look.

My kind of winter basics

 

Wanted to make a post about my winter basic pieces, was just waiting for the weather to get a little bit colder. The most important basic piece in winter is a coat, for me it has to be black, not only because is more versatile but also because i can't live without black, a good quality leather one is the perfect one for me, with a good length and a warm kind of lining, this one is so gorgeous is from a portuguese designer and although it's vintage it's completely new, another basic is a pair of jeans, i love black or very dark denim ones like this pair from Asos, the boots can't miss in this cold weather and docs are for sure my choice everytime, when it comes to tops i got to have a nice chunky cable knit black jumper, because it is very warm very versatile and kind of casual, of course i have to make it more interesting with a shirt and a black and white plaid shirt i my must for every season, this one is from Young Hungry Free. Also i like to have a big bag with me to carry my laptop or my books to go to classes. To finish the look i had a wide brim hat, always good when it's slightly raining you can really skip the umbrella or a warm beanie.
