Lifestyle // Bloggers meeting

Image
 Photos by O Estilista Bracarense Like I mentioned in the previous post, I went to a bloggers meeting last Thursday. I leave here some photos to show you how lovely it was! Como mencionei no post anterior, fui esta Quinta-Feira a um encontro de bloggers no Porto. Deixo aqui algumas fotos, para dar um cheirinho da coisa. Agora é esperar pelo próximo! (pessoalmente fiquei muito fã da ideia das francesinhas)

Floral Dress

Dress - Primark | Ballerinas - DIY These photos were taken by  Ana from Playground Love (thanks!)  in the garden of Palácio de Cristal, Porto, where I went to a bloggers picnic organized by   Nádia from My Fashion Insider .  Thought the picnic was a lovely idea so I decided to ignore the fact that I'm socially awkward and decided to go.  Limited social skills aside, really liked the experience and I got to know very good blogs in the end.  Estas fotos foram tiradas pela Ana do Playground Love (obrigado!) nos jardins do Palácio de Cristal, onde fui a um piquenique de bloggers organizado  pela Nádia do My Fashion Insider . Estava reticente, mas a chei a ideia do piquenique tão gira que decidi relegar para segundo plano o facto de ser socially awkward e ir.  Tirando as minhas limitadas   social skills , gostei bastante da experiência e fiquei a conhecer blogs muito bons à custa disto.

Lifestyle // Summer, glad you're here.

Image
This is a non-fashion related post, saw this old photo o'mine and decided to share it with you. I simply love Summer, it's definitely my favorite season: beach, leisure, laziness. Can't wait to get myself face down on the beach reading a book, feeling that warmth of the sun on my skin.  Although, when I want to take a swim I do prefer the pool, 'cause I wear contact lenses (am quite a bit nearsighted!) and seawater makes my eyes burn. And you, do you prefer beach or pool? Uma foto não relacionada com moda, mas sim com o Verão. Esta é definitivamente a minha altura favorita, praia, tempo livre, despreocupações.  Estou ansiosa por me meter de barriga para baixo na toalha de praia a ler um livro, a sentir o sol a aquecer a pele.  Esta foto não é deste ano, ainda não tive oportunidade para ir para a piscina esbracejar um bocado, mas nesse aspecto prefiro piscinas à praia, porque uso lentes de contacto (sou completamente míope!) e a água do mar deixa-me os olhos a ...

Fashion Review // Once Upon a Time

Image
When somebody recommended me this series, I thought I wouldn't like it, fictional series are not my thing. The truth is I saw an episode just for curiosity and was captivated, saw almost the entire season in one night. Think it is by appealing to our childhood, who doesn't like a bit of fairy tale in their lives? Who doesn't love Snow White, Cinderella, the Little Red Riding Hood? The script isn't the best, but it's interesting to see how they have managed to compose the characters from fairy tales to real life. Scripts aside, the character that motivated me to do this post was Mary Margaret, who is also Snow White. Her clothes are lovely and they reflect her personality. She uses soft colors in pastel shades. The key parts are lace tops, floral patterned skirts and cardigans of various colors. An  usual   accessory is the  bonnet, which fits like a glove in her short hair. It's a very feminine style which I really like. Another adorable thing is her ...

Oh, so lovely! - The perfect bedroom

Image
Image from tumblr I would love to have a bedroom like this. A little piece of sky. School's over, finally. I wanna do so many things I don't know where to start! Adorava que o meu quarto fosse assim. Um pedacinho de céu. Estou finalmente de férias. Quero fazer tanta coisa que nem sei por onde começar! Já agora, quem está a pensar ir ao encontro de bloggers no Porto, organizado pela Nádia ?

BEAUTY - My favorite lipsticks

Image
Born Lippy Watermelon & Born Lippy Pomegranade - The BodyShop | 22 Dark Red & 84 Red - Kiko Don't like to spend much money on makeup, so I just buy what I really need. My lips are very dry so I have to wear an moisturizing lipstick all the time. I'm a sucker for those who smell really nice (lemon, mint, melon, grapes…) and this first one from The BodyShop it's like an explosion of watermelon scent, just can't get enough of it. The other one doesn't have such a strong fragrance, but smells nice too. Besides that, leaves a really pretty red color on my lips and that's amazing. Months ago, I really needed to buy a red lipstick since my previous one from Avon was just a piece of crap (pardon my french). These two from Kiko only costed me 2 euros each. I tough "It's better buy another one in a different tone, just in case I don't like the first one". Well, loved both. The cover is mate and they last all day. The only think bad is...

Black cape & Red Dress

Cape & Tights - Primark | Dress - Wholesale-dress | Bag - Vintage Today woke up to a very rainy day. The weather has been unpredictable, so I never know what to wear. Decided to wear my black cape and it was indeed a very wise decision, it kept me protected from the rain.  Almost had no time to take this photos before it started to rain again.  This infernal week is nearly over, after that I can properly take care of this blog, I've a series of posts on hold to show you! Acordei ao som da chuva hoje. Este tempo anda mesmo imprevisível, nunca sei o que vestir. Resgatei a minha capa preta do armário que foi bastante útil para me impedir de ficar encharcada. Mal tive tempo para tirar fotos antes que começasse a chover de novo.  Esta semana infernal está a acabar, depois posso finalmente dedicar mais tempo ao blog, tenho uma série de posts para vos mostrar em stand-by .
