New in | Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens

All photos taken by me

Those of you, who follow me on Facebook and Twitter, might have read how excited I was last week when I finally received a much anticipated package. What was in it? My new Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens, which I ordered from Amazon. I didn’t wait much time to put it to the test, and I loved the results. Exactly what I was expecting! You can see some sample photos I took with it below. As for outfit posts, you’ve already seen a small sample from them as well. The last 2 posts have been photographed with this lens. We’re still learning to use it in the best way, but I think we’ll get there really soon. So far, it’s LOVE! What lens do you use with your DSLR, or perhaps for your outfit posts (if you have one)? Do you have any future recommendations for me?

Running errands | Casual outfit

Something simple to run some errands around town, on a really warm and sunny day…Almost too bright to take pictures, and since I was alone I had to use my self-timer again after a long time. Might have been the sun reflecting on the lens, or a weird mark on it, but most of my photos have a weird blue “stain” on them. I believe it’s the first one. Sorry for that. You asked for more casual outfits, and I’m doing my best to post more of these on the blog lately. So what do you think? Casual enough?

Overcast | outfit post

I wore this outfit on Sunday to go for lunch with family friends. I wasn’t sure about it at first but I have to say that I really loved how it looked. I asked my mom to take these photos for the blog on this really cloudy day. As soon as we finished the rain started pouring down. Wore my new Bourne Agatha wedge booties for the second time that day, and saved them according to the rules of Shoeper Shoe Challenge by Shoeperwoman.com. Do you like it?

April’s wishlist

Good morning! Happy April fool’s day! A new month is here… The clocks have turned one hour forward, which means more daylight and I couldn’t be happier about it. I hope you all had a great Easter day yesterday (as I told you our Easter is in May this year). A new month means a new wishlist for the blog…I call this month’s wishlist:

The B&W stripes Issue

Purple sunsets | Outfit post

I wore this casual outfit on Sunday to go out with T. but we were running late, so we just caught the last of sun to take these photos. Some of them are a bit blurry but we did our best. The light was so little because of the clouds, that it was impossible to take photos without flash or a tripod.  In the last ones we finally gave up and used flash to show you some details. And I’m posting them knowing that some people will ask me again why do I wear sunglasses when it’s dark outside (by the way, it wasn’t), but oh well, my dear frequent readers, you know the answer to that. I hope you enjoy it despite the quality of the photos.
