Thought I'd post a "clothes picture" as well. I got these tights a while ago but I wanted something grey to wear with them so I solved that by purchasing this grey top, easy as that.
I wanted to include Tara and Lola in my photo but this picture just proves how well that went...
Wearing: Top - H&M, Tights - Topshop, Shoes - some random shoe shop in Madrid.
I adore this fur cardigan. It's Jonathan's mum's but I borrow it sometimes because I'm quite sure she doesn't use it anymore... This is not the best picture but it is really lovely, with the softest fur and two blingy buttons!
For my Easter break I left the mainland for some island life. I took some pictures but forgot my camera cord so I'll just upload little by little. Jonathan, Mark and I went for a car ride along the coast and stopped at one of the rocky beaches, beautiful! My first beach visit of the year did not include any swimming though. Unlike the Germans a bit of sunshine won't make me walk around in flip-flops or torture my body with ice cold water, no that will have to wait...
Wearing: Dress - vintage find from last year, Hat - old from H&M
I found this old picture on the computer today. It's funny how short I look, not that I'm very tall at all in real life but the proportions just look kind of wrong... Anyway what I really wanted to comment on is the blue scarf. My b-friend bought it for me a long time ago when we were in Morocco and I love it. However, I sadly discovered that it shouldn't be washed... The colour started coming off and made my hands look like smurf hands. Very sad because I adore the rich colour. Don't want to throw it away though so now the scarf lives in a bag in my closet, poor thing.
I spent my weekend with these lovlies, shopping, having hot chocolate, eating paella, watching Leonardo Di Caprio's latest film "Shutter Island" (great actually), oh and a visit to a museum where I managed to take a few pictures. Great weekend indeed.
A friend of mine made some beautiful artwork for an exhibition some time ago which included gorgeous screenprints of Michael. I decided to buy this one which I adore! Love the yellow light surrounding Michael's head. Anyway it's been on show for a while but I'm so happy to finally have it at home (well at one of my homes, kind of...). It's made of glass and therefore it was a bit tricky to take a picture without any reflection.
Just thought I'd express some desires of further supporting the world of capitalism... I want me some Miu Miu s/s 10! Just beautiful. Well, dream on, dream on...
Forgot to mention that apart from the tights I also invested in this necklace. Also from H&M, the children's section. Let's just hope the flowers stay put and don't fall off as soon as I breath or move...
Decided to go hunting for some pretty things (clothes-wise) and darn was I disappointed! Couldn't find anything I liked, well perhaps I would've if I had tons of money but unfortunatley that is NOT the case. One more reason to why I should learn how to sew properly... The picture quality is quite bad but thought I'd show the one single thing that did come home with me, i.e. the flowery tights.
Simple things that make you appreciate a simple day more: colourful pretty cupcakes with sweets on them! And although I don't like Coke that much I must say that cherries make everything better. I've heard that Big Red is what my darling Michael chews so I was pretty happy when I randomly found some here, never seen it before. Peculiar flavour, kind of like cinnamon mixed with chilli but we like peculiar things don't we?!
Went dancing on Saturday while wearing my old turqouise dress. Been quite a while since the last time I wore it. It has small blood stains (mine not someone else's) on the sleeves that won't wash away but oh well, probably gives it more character anyway... By the way as you can see I finally found some white tights! Been looking for a pair for ages so I'm very delighted about that.
Dress - vintage (the Lazy Ones), tights - random tights and sock shop, shoes - vintage
Had a lovely Saturday: nice sunny day with one of my favourite people. The day began with a nice breakfast consisting of scones with clotted cream and jam plus tea and hot chocolate, yum! Next, we started making our way towards Reina Sofia to look at some pretty things suchs as the amazing ballet costumes below or Picasso's "Guernica (impressive!)".
I'm easily impressed sometimes, no art needed just a big empty space...
Because of his genius I thought I'd at least dedicate this post to this amazing man. The music, the dance, the style (I heart!), the sexiness - pure MAGIC! We should all cherish gifts like Prince for their contributions to culture and the sharing of their amazing talents. The concept of music just isn't the same anymore, that beautiful magic that was will never come back to us... A lot of love to you Prince.
Never one to refrain from experimenting ;) Shy? Probably does not exist in his vocabulary! But seriously, still looking hot!
I'd trade being old now for having experienced these gorgeous old times... Enjoy the magic below!
