Nudes & pastels | Outfits

Every time, before I get dressed, I decide on my outfit… But even before that, I ask myself some questions and take many factors into consideration. Where am I going? Do I need to dress casual, or formal? Do I want to be absolutely comfortable today? Am I going to do a lot of walking? Do I need to carry a big bag with me to fit all my needed stuff for the day? Can I wear a dress? It may sound complicated but it’s not, because those questions get answered in a few seconds. So I ask myself these, and I go on, deciding my shoes and bag for that day, and I usually built the rest of the outfit around those. For the day we took these photos, I needed to be comfortable (so jeans and a loose top were the best option), I was going to walk a lot (therefore I needed flats), and I needed a bag to fit all my stuff plus my camera, that would match the rest of the outfit. And this is how even the simplest outfits get created in my mind. There are many variations to this process, but it usually goes like this. How do you get dressed in the morning? What’s your process?

Green & khaki | Outfits

These photos were taken a couple of days ago, and despite our best efforts to have good lighting, we failed. It comes with the change of seasons, and it’s the same every time. Days get shorter, and we try to get used to those changes, and we’re chasing the sun to have a good result, but it’s not always successful. Oh well, we tried! This is another monochromatic outfit, in different hues of green, and it’s actually the 2nd time I got to wear my new embellished khaki shorts this summer. Bought them this spring, but wasn’t feeling comfortable enough to wear them until now. I’m eager to try them with my matching embellished khaki shirt, when days get colder.

New in | Beauty products

Last week I went shopping for some beauty products I’ve been meaning to try for a long time. My skin is terribly dry lately, so I was eager to try some products from La Roche-Posay for which I’ve heard so many nice things. I bought their Hydraphase Intense Masque, and their Intense Serum, which I’ve already started using. And I finally bought myself some sunscreen for my upcoming vacation: the La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Melt-in cream with SPF50+, which currently was 30% off. Another beauty product I really wanted to try was dry shampoo. I found this one by Syoss with a nice discount, so I bought it and gave it a try. So far it seems nice, but let me use them a little while longer before I make a full review of them. Finally, I couldn’t pass the opportunity to buy another MAC lipstick since they were having 25% off at that time, so I bought MAC Red to keep company to my Ruby Woo. I’m sure that most of you have already tried some of these products, so please let me know your experiences by leaving a comment below.

Wishlist | September 2013

September is here, and even though I’m not ready for fall yet, the temperatures have already gone down a bit. Hoping that doesn’t ruin my upcoming vacation! Fall has its perks though! Lower temperatures make it easier to wake up and get dressed in general, and you can still wear your summer clothes with some fall pieces added to them. For this month’s wishlist I picked: A River Island textured striped pencil skirt, an Asos Waterfall cardigan (perfect for chiller days), an Asos Classic trench (Fall essential), an Asos Jumpsuit with strappy back (my favorite of all!), a shape up pencil skirt in charcoal, and a pair of low cut booties in Chili Red. Have you prepared your wishlist yet? Which item is your favorite?

My month in pics – August 2013

This month passed by so quickly! We’re only one day away from September, but I won’t worry about it. Even though we have more frequent rains lately, I’m staying positive that September will be really warm too. Or at least I hope so! I really loved all the outfits I wore this month, and the photo sessions we had with T. and some of my blogger friends. Which outfit is your favorite? It’s always a difficult choice for me. For those of you who don’t have an Instagram account, I prepared a recap of my month. If however, you’re on Instagram and you like what you see feel free to follow me. It will be my greatest pleasure. Let’s hope for an even better September, shall we?
