Pick of the Day - Shopper Soft from Zara

Find it HERE

So, I'm one of those girls who cannot have a smaller handbag. I just can't function with them. Specially when I carry daily almost everything in my bag. But I may have to find a smaller one 'cause when we travel it is a big essential and I always tend to use my backpack. 

And my leather handbag that you guys have seen on the outfit post is starting the show their signs of constant use, SO I decided to start searching for another one, in different shape yet big. And Zara, as always, had the perfect one. Soft, minimal, with no pockets on the outside and a lot of space in side. Perfect! It is from their new collection. 

What do you think?

Have a warm night!

Leather & Air Force 1

FRIDAY! Yeah, finally. Though my days are almost spent at home doing some personal work, it's always good to be on Friday. And this weekend has so much fun schedule that I cannot wait. 

And here is today's outfit. The sky is as grey as my sweater and we're lucky to have taken those photos without rain. I'm so in love with my sneakers... How come I did not bought them sooner? No more money spent on loafers that I may only use once or twice, and start saving money to buy sneakers. They look so mush cooler and better with this type of style. And those leather pants were a super finding among Pull&Bear sales and they're super comfy because they're not that tight on the legs. Plus, grey sweater from H&M Men and a super warm knit scarf and I'm good to go. My hair just looks all kinds of crazy due to the wind but I just gave up on controlling him - it's a wild beast at this point!

Black, grey and white is such a perfect combo... And I'm more than happy that I redefined my closet  - one of my New Year's resolutions - and my style options. It is so good to go back to that sportish boyish yet feminine style. 

Now, back to the city!

See you guys later.

Love,

Maria

Here they are! I'm so happy! Super comfy. As I'm not used to walk on sneakers for me this is super comfortable - my feet can now rest from the heels and loafers for a while. Next outfit will be with them. Yay!

Have a warm night.

Chunky Knit & Bare Legs

Photography by Rui Ferreira

Cold, cold Wednesday guys! 

OMG, very bad idea to wear bare legs. Still I was super warm on my torso. That knit just became my favorite piece for the rest of the Winter - and since the real winter has began this month this is a super essential! Though the sun was shinning, the windy was to damn chilly - I think I stopped feeling my feet a few seconds after we left the warmth of the car. 

I had this look in my mind since I spotted this knit on Zara - perfect color and shape! And I had it up to my ears all the time! Gosh, it was so cold. But the thing is, as my hair is still short (and I've wore short hair for many years) I've always had this thing for super warm scarves and knit that could go up to my ears so that I wouldn't feel the cold on my neck. I hate that, because if I don't have something warm to put around my neck, I may walk like Quasimodo, with my shoulders up for the coat to reach my neck. Crazy, I know.

I know this look is similar to a one I did last month - same shoes and skirt - but their favorites and if you love a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes just wear them! It doesn't care if you're repeating yourself as long as you feel happy with what you're wearing - a good motto! 

And my Nike Air force 1 just arrived! So, so happy! I'll be showing you them soon on the blog.

Have a warm day!

Love,
