Feeling Sunday

Hi readers!

My Sundays are for waking up late, relax and do whatever I want. I like to dress comfortable and feel like the day itself: free. If I don't hit the beach, I'll probably prepare a homemade brunch and then take a walk around town or maybe visit someone. This outfit, from Gatsby, feels so lose and carefree I could do yoga with it. Also, the spaghetti sleeves are perfect for the high temperatures of summer.  Sounds convenient, doesn't it?

This past weekend I realized how many amazing museums I've visited around the world, but still haven't been to one in my country. Can you believe that? I didn't made an entrance, but passed in front of the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico and promised myself to take a look inside pretty soon! In this occasion, I was in the mood to keep walking and go for a little home-deco/Father's Day shopping. Yeah... It was that kind of Sunday and I loved it!

Little White Dress

¡Hola! 

How important it is to have in your closet the famous "little black dress"? Yes, it is so elegant, classy and easy to wear! But let's be honest, who wants to wear black on summer? What about having a "little white dress"? It'll accentuate your sun-kissed skin and will build a better look to visit the pool-side area. 

A white dress could be a risky piece, since it's a revealing color and may be see-trough. This [ Gatsby ] dress has the perfect shape, fabric and texture to achieve that sexy, but chic look to your girl's day/night out. When styling a black dress you need to pay attention to some details in the combination. The same happens with a white one. You don't want to look blah, so you need to add some color to your lips or/and accessories. Here's how I mix my colors:

Are you willing to get your little white dress?

Sammydress + Flower Power

It doesn't matter how dark is the setting or how dark are your clothes, flowers will brighten off your photos and will pop a natural glow to your face.

Ironic how much I like flower crowns and floral pieces, but I prefer to live among buildings, night lights, urban spaces, many restaurants / shopping places, fast spaced people... that's me. That's why I live in the 10th floor, in the middle of my country's highest group of buildings and where my closest view is Hato Rey, San Juan. There, anything that comes from nature is rarely found, but highly precious. Sunrises, sunsets and flowers stand out like in no other setting. I LOVE THE CITY.

Today I'm sharing a little shoot from the rooftop of my condominium, wearing a black maxi-dress from Sammydress.com. Temperatures in Puerto Rico are raising to 90 degrees and over, so even though this is a dark/long dress, it is so light and fresh!

Outfit: Olé!

That's right, SPAIN!  I visited Madrid and Barcelona. Both were very different, they even speak different languages: Madrid-Spanish & Barcelona-Catalán.  Today I'll share an outfit I wore before going out the very last day in Europe.  We went shopping at La Gran Vía and then have some sushi for dinner.  It was a good day, a very good day.

From head to toe:

Scarf: Old Navy (I think)

Underneath sailor top and baby blue sweater: Zara

Shorts: Forever 21

Ombre tights: Anthropologie.com [see shopping post here ]

Booties: Steve Madden (DSW)

Looking stylish and tired at the same time ... cute for me, WINK!

Love,
Teresa

Shopping in Italy!

There's no specific order in my Euro-trip posts.  Today I'm just sharing some stuff I bought between Ravenna and Florence, Italy.  There were a lot of stores in both cities... everything was pretty and everything was cheap enough.  

 Ravenna:

I found the most cute and comfortable black purse in Ravenna at a store named Pimkie for only 11 euros!  Most of the stores were H&M look-a-likes, just so you get the idea.

 

There was this Italian man on the streets of Ravenna, 

and we thought he was very fashionable and stylish:

 Florence:

Florence was paradise.  There was this store named Kiko, which was just like a Mac store in the USA... only cheaper.  I got two nail polishes and a gel nail polish remover for only 8 euros!!!

 Have you been smart-shopping lately?

Outfit: "From Paris with Love"

Hello lovelies!

I know I haven't blogged for an entire month, but here I am again.

Where have I been?  I was in Europe for 19 days

The rest of the month?  Post-vacation blues. Haha... I'm serious.

   Was I thinking about my followers while traveling? OF COURSE!

That's why I have some outfits & shopping pictures to post.

 I'm going to start with an outfit post that was made in Paris, France.  

Paris was one of my favorite cities in Europe, besides Venice, Italy (which is uniquely amazing!).  These pictures were taken while heading to the Eiffel Tower during our second day in the city.  It was very cold (winter weather), so my clothes were warm and comfortable enough for an entire day walking and discovering new places.

 From head to toe:

Headband: Local store in Madrid, Spain (city before Paris)

Scarf and tights: Forever 21

Coat: Victoria's Secret

Boots: DSW Shoe Warehouse

Modeling for the blog (haha):

  
You can see the Eiffel Tower getting closer!

 Louvre Museum:

 FINALLY HERE!!!

 After visiting the Louvre Museum:

Until the next post!

Love,

Teresa
