Today's Outfit

Good afternoon, dears!

Sorry for the bad updated on the blog, but I've been resting my foot and trying not to wear any shoes besides slippers. But happily I found the perfect material to dress my wounds and I'm able to wear shoes again - happy girl, ahah! 

This was a look I had planned yesterday. Is an almost all Mango look, except the coat and shoes. Love those white wide leg trousers - though they're a little fresh for the cold weather - and my favorite knit from their last s/s collection. Wearing wide leg trousers and over sized coats looks very comfortable and at the same time classic - a favorite combination right now. And I just love those cat eye sunglasses from Parfois. 

And yes, my hair is a mess. I'm trying to let it grow and it's driving me crazy... I'm thinking changing to my natural color again - maybe it will be easier for me to let it grow without seeing the roots of my hair every month. 

Having a cat that loves to sleep and roll over over your clothes it's a down, and that's one of the reasons my coat has those little and annoying white cat hairs - small life dilemma! 

Have a warm day!

Love,
Maria

My first photoshoot with BRPHOTOS

Photography by Bruno Rosa

Good morning, dears!

So, I'm so happy to finally be able to show you a sneak peek of the photoshoot I did a month ago with a friend of ours - check out his work on BRPHOTOS and the photo here and on my Facebook page as well. 

It was all about black and jeans, simple pieces on my skin. Something simple yet sexy and modern. 

I'll be soon showing you the three outfits we did during the photo-shoot. I cannot wait to see the results! 

Love,
Maria

Today's Outfit

Good morning, sweeties!

Here is a cold and windy morning and I'm about to stay home for the next few days and I have a injure on my left foot (see the photo here). Now the only thing I can wear are those wedge sneakers from Pull&Bear - very comfortable, may I say! 

Yesterday my boyfriend and I went to Lisbon - I needed to go to IKEA to buy some frames for my drawings, I will soon show you the results - and decided to stroll through Rua Augusta and take some photos on Praça do Comércio. It was a beautiful Fall sunny day - 20ºC - and of course the knit scarf was out of question, though it was really could in the morning. 

I decide to go for a casual look - I had to match the rest of the look to my wedge sneakers - and was quite happy with the result. As I said on my previous post I'm on a white mood but my white winter/fall clothes are very few and didn't match the look I was going for. 

Have a wonderful day!

Love,
Maria

Today's Outfit

Good evening, sweeties!

Here is how I looked today. The "white mood" is kicking again... I woke up this morning in "pretty and pink" mood, already mind made on what I wanted to wear - unsual thing! Adding this powder pink coat to it, and all I can think right now is white outfits to match the coat. Not even thinking on black - that's new! 

There's so much inspiration on white and nude outfits going on on the Internet - since clothe stores to tumblr - that is making my mind right now! But the sad thing is that I don't have a lot of white clothes for winter... It is mostly black and grey. Gotta get my hands on some new white goodies! 

Today the white basics are from Zara, and the nude/pink are from Primark and Truffle. Plus, the Louis Vuitton bag - perfect!

Now, just gonna get ready to watch the Sweden-Portugal game! YEAH!

See you tomorrow!

Love,
Maria

Good evening, sweeties!

I hope you're having a lazy and warm Sunday. It's so cold outside... perfect time for turtlenecks and oversized coats! And finally manage to wear my new suede ankle boots from Primark - they are so high, and may I say they maybe be the highest pair I have so far. Really love them! 

Now, back to watch movies and find so inspiration to do some drawings.

See you guys tomorrow!

Love,
Maria

Annecy, The Venice from The Alpes

Ile des Cygnes, Lac d'Annecy

Good morning, dears! 

Today I want to share with you our last photos from our trip to Switzerland. As we were staying in Geneva, we decided to make a little get away to Annecy, in France (a hour away road trip on bus). They call it the Venice from The Alpes, and they're right! Crystal like water, perfect Fall trees all over the place, amazing historic buildings, lovely streets, canals everywhere, smell of food in every corner  due to the many Italian restaurants. I advice you to go there! You won't regret it.

We had a beautiful sunny Fall morning, but by the beginning of the afternoon it turned grey and as we arrived to Geneva was already raining. Needless to say that we spent the rest of the day in our hotel room just fooling around. 

I cannot wait for our next adventure!

Have a lovely Friday.

Love,
Maria

Hello, dears!

I hope you had a wonderful day. Here was sunny but a little bit windy and I spent the afternoon strolling through the city with my little nephew - I'm sooo tired!

And here is how I looked yesterday. Love the color of my hair on these photos - so ginger/copper. And wearing a over sized black coat with a pair of boyfriend jeans and stilettos it's the perfect combination! My base look for this winter. 

Tomorrow I'll be sharing the rest of the photos from our trip - big post about Annecy! I really loved that city.

Have a warm night.

Love,
