these boots are made for loving.

 when I first saw these suede ankle boots I fell in love right away!

isabel  marant really knows how to make this little mademoiselle sigh... she is definitely one of my fav designers out there.

So when I spotted these little babies at mango they had to come home with me!

 

ps: I know it's too darn hot for boots but I can't resist them. they are too darn cute!

inspired by vintage mismatching coffee sets that I saw in some cool spots in berlin, I had to have one you my own. so yesterday I went bargain hunting and here are some of my "new" cups.

and some other kind of shopping too.

life in blue - part 1

This year’s wedding season is almost here so I decided to explore mama’s closet again and I found this beautiful treasure: a 30 year old lace dress so delicate and so romantic! It was love at first sight!

However, before I can wear it, I need to dye it first (time has taken its toll...). Any suggestions of a good place to dye the dress in Lisboa? 

10 things I love

cátia challenged me and I just couldn’t resist. so here are 10 things I love (in no particular order):

1. the first one is really really obvious: clutches!

the white one is brand new. wait. no. it’s not new… or is it? I bought it yesterday at a vintage shop…. but it’s never been used before! so I love my white-new-vintage clutch!


 2. maki-sushi.

yummy! I could live on a maki-sushi diet for life!


3. nail polish.

 I want candy! 


4. shoes! shoes! shoes!  

shoes everywhere. shoes in the subway!

5. weekend breakfasts.

with all the time in the world to spare…


6. books & reading.

I've got a crush on jane austen. you’ve got an hopeless romantic here!

7. music.

everywhere. always.

8. santa claus 

 

though I really don’t like christmas I’ve got a soft spot for the sweet old man (yes he does exist! go saint nick!) and here you have a little glimpse of my huge collection of santas.

9. travel. 

 I do love to travel but I love to come home to Lisboa.


10. family & friends.

love!

I’m not going to challenge anyone in particular. I’ll just invite you all to share with us 10 things you love!

just another manic monday...

with a lousy humor after such a very nice weekend!

baked my first ever cake

next stop: the book fair. I brought home with me some cool mystery books along with books about history, cinema and music.

then a night out with mates and dates and friends

and finally went on a trip down memory lane and found some old bracelets that will sure be my new (old) best friends... some of them are so cool! I can't believe I had forgotten all about them...

since today you can't really escape the royal wedding fever you might as well just sit back, relax and enjoy the fashion parade.

talking about color blocking

I was listening to this album remembering poly styrene and, looking at the artwork on the cover, I began wondering that... "punk color blocking" rocked back in 1978!
