WI'MWUI #48: City blue wind
I'm here! I'm alive! I disconnected from the world (ok, just the blogging world as you should really follow me on Instagram and see my daily photo updates!) while I was stuffing myself with food & Easter eggs but I'm back now. With 3 extra kg, but back. To see the positive side of things, I actual have a considerable big queue of outfits now, waiting to be published and shown to the world. Hope you enjoy this blue&white one, with such windy hair I thought I was in an actual photo shoot for a minute. Maybe just a couple of seconds but still.
Estou aqui! Estou viva! Desliguei do mundo (ok, só do mundo de blog porque ninguém me tira o meu Instagram e shame on you se não seguirem os meus instaposts todos os dias!) enquanto me estava a empanturrar com comida e ovos de Páscoa mas estou de volta. Com mais 3 kg em cima, mas estou de volta. Se virmos o lado positivo da coisa, voltei carregadinha de outfits para vocês, tenho uma fila deles aqui à espera de ser publicados e mostrados ao mundo. Espero que gostem deste branco e azulinho, com uns cabelos tão ao vento que por momentos achei que estava numa sessão fotográfica à séria. Vá, não exageremos mas foi um bom momento.

WI'MWUI #42: The Printed Trousers @ LisboaFashionWeek
I know you've had a glance at these ones before (check here for the full post on ModaLisboa), but hope you didn't think I wasn't going to do a proper post about them. THE trousers. The ones I spotted on LOOK magazine on the plane and HAD to have them. The ones that are made of that weird scuba-diving suit fabric that is a tiny bit hot. The ones I rocked on Lisbon Fashion Week. *sigh*
Eu sei que já deram um olhinho nestas princesas (se não deram, dêem agora aqui e saibam tudo sobre a ModaLisboa), mas espero que não estivessem para aí a pensar que não ia pôr um post completo em sua honra. AS calças. Aquelas que eu vi na revista LOOK no avião e nunca mais me calei com elas. Aquelas que são daquele tecido de fato-de-mergulho estranhíssimo que é um bocadiiiiinho quente. Aquelas que fizeram um sucesso na ModaLisboa. *ai*

WI'MWUI #41: Rock meets the City
Happy (lazy) Sunday everyone! I clearly say lazy based on my activities today - a girl needs to catch up on the missed episodes, right?! But there is always some strength to blog - especially about clothes. Given the recent changes around here, I thought I'd change the name of the most posted post: What I'm Wrapped Up In. I want to put a bit more of me in it (if that's possible!) and decided these babies need a name - a personalised one. So here's my first one, where rock style meets the city, more particularly, Lisbon. Everyone loves a bit of black, everyone loves a bit of a sunny Lisbon.
Bom dia de-não-fazer-nada a todos! Eu digo isto tendo em conta as minhas actividades de hoje - bem, uma pessoa tem que pôr em dia os episódios dos últimos dias, não é?! Mas há sempre aquela forçazinha para fazer um post - especialmente sobre roupas. E sendo que estamos numa de revolução aqui, já estava na altura de mudar o nome do post mais publicado: What I'm Wrapped Up In. Assim para dar um ar mais personalizado à coisa, vou dar-lhes um nome. Por isso aqui vai o primeiro, where rock style meets the city, em particular, Lisboa. Toda a gente adora um bocadinho de preto, toda a gente adora um bocadinho de Lisboa ao sol.

The perks of working at GLH
Ever since I moved jobs that I've been having style nightmares. Why? Because it happens that with all the million places to work in London, I had to go to the exact same building as ASOS.
This means that even if you think you're looking mega edgy and well-dressed that morning, as soon as you get off the tube there are about 57 other girls that have put wayy more effort into it. And therefore look wayy better. And I mean the whole picture: clothes, shoes (open ones in freaking December!) and make up, lots of make up. Depressing, I know.
So that's the bad side. The good one is that you get to know about random ASOS Sales at the distance of a lift. Yes, I did say Sales. Yes, you did jump. I did too when I heard about it.
After getting in a room full of awesome clothes, checking around, noticing the lack of price tags and realising it was clearly not the right one, we eventually found the place. It was a crazily themed Fair. Of course, a Vintage one.
There were little Vintage booths everywhere, with crazy Vintage girls on them, selling all sorts of things: clothes, shoes, bags (bags!!!), books, cupcakes...
I must admit I'm not the most Vintage person in the world. Like one piece or another to mix it up but don't go too crazy. I guess I must also admit I'm not a fan of second hand clothes, who knows where that has been...?! But some of the clothes and shoes looked quite cool!
That said, I was a good girl and only got a hand bag. One of those must-have giant black ones with gold details - I'm sure I'll be posing around with it very soon.
Because there's no Vintage Fair without some craziness old school type of thing, there was some very funky music being played by some very funky people!
Thanks ASOS, do some more, anytime.
