Snake Bite

My recent craving is a pair of snake-skin shoes (not real skin of course, I'm pro-animals).  I think they are so chic and especially... fierce!  I was surfing one of my favorite pages to shop online: Gojane.com.  They just have such great deals, moderate shipping costs and good quality pieces.  Never had a problem with anything and if something doesn't fit me, I can send it back.  They are also so friendly and personal with their customers.  I found some pairs of "snake skin" shoes and now I can't decide for one.  This is one of those times when I ask for my readers opinion and help before I make the mistake of buying all of them!

So, dear reader, which one is your fave?
The strap-ish first pair, the wedges or the slingback pumps?

Wanna Pepperoni?

Isn't pepperoni red? Another of the stuff I bought at H&M during the NYC visit last month (besides this bag), was  this weird-colored-nail polish named "Wanna Pepperoni".  The price was great and the color so different, so I didn't hesitate to buy it.  It is so creamy and with just one hand I was ready to go.  Now there's another way to see pepperoni.. as green nail polish! Look at how refreshing this color is:




I wanna guacamole now!

DIY: The Blazer Trend

 Are you too rushed after work to get ready for a party?  Pack a cuter top, some extra accessories, a mini-skirt and use the blazer-trend at your best convenience.  In this occasion I'm showing a very simple way to transform a work-blazer into a party-blazer with lace and pearls, for a classy/chic look.

1. change the classic work blouse for a lace, sequin or sexier top
2. leave the blazer open
3. put on extra accessories
4. place a brooch
5. fold the sleeves
6. use a colorful mini-skirt or skinny pants



 Here are a some pictures from the weekend taken with my cell phone:


I had dinner with my boy (sushi), partied with some friends, 
went shopping (where i discovered a MK store!) 
and to the movies (The Rum Diary)!

 How was your weekend?
Love,
Teresa

Another Week Behind

It's been a while since I don't write an "Another Week Behind" post because of the NYC trip, but they're back! Monday was fun.  We dressed up at work and I laughed until I cried!  The rest of the week was a bit stressful because I'm in the middle of my thesis and some other stuff.  My weekend agenda is full as well and I'm planning to go shopping to see if I can find:


WEEKEND FASHION CRAVING...

the Michael Kors bag.
Yes, hope to finally get it this weekend!


WEEK FAVORITES...

OUTFIT FROM ANOTHER BLOGGER: 
Rania from Nothing Like Fashion.
She named this outfit "Masculine Attitude".
I think is a trendy-girly look and I'm in love with it.


COMMENT ON MY BLOG:
  While I wish to have seasons in my country (the whole year is summer @ the Caribbean), Teddi is jealous about the flowers in my backyard.  Teddi's comment for [ this post ] made me realize that we are never happy with the weather from the country we live in.

Teddi said...
"do you have any idea how pretty you are? that bag has great braiding detail. i own feather/wing earrings. i want your bracelet! i like the color & texture of your blouse. those shoes create a great look, & .. i'm jealous of all the pretty flowers & greenery where you live. for i mostly see dead grass, & wilted leaves, killed by the texas heat & sun. just call me mary sunshine."

Trend-ish. Icon of November: Ashley Greene

Who is the cutest vampire girl from the Twilight Saga? Alice!  Don't you love the unique/short hair, the European air in her style and that bubbly personality.  Ashley Greene is not only a fashion girl in the big screen, but in real life too.  Her style in real life is more of a chic/classy/rocker girl.  I think she is so versatile and really knows how to play with her hair and image.

She is the new ambassador for the brand: Mark. and has been in their campaign for the whole year.  The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn will be in theaters this month and we'll see a lot from Ashley everywhere for the next weeks, let's pay attention to her style!

Outfit: The New Bag

Since some of you asked me to show the items I bought at H&M during my NYC visit, I'm showing you only one of them in this outfit, the bag.  It was love at first sight, magnetic, romantic...  The color and shape captivated me, but the best thing was the price: $39.00!  Next act I saw a rack full of these bags and I thought: this isn't unique...  But quickly said to myself, it may not be unique here, but in my town it is, since we don't have an H&M store!  So I went for it and put it in my shopping bag.  I used it for the first time on Saturday to go out with my boy and it was comfortable and chic.  It's one of my favorite items in my closet right now.
