White sleekness


It's been quite a long time since I wore white pants for the last time, until now. And who isn't loving wearing lots of white this season? It really feels so fresh, so pure and so clean and it's actually such a cool twist from wearing my treasured black, so some contrast is very good once in a while, right? Plus, I believe that a white suit has a certain something that makes it look very sleek. 
On the other hand, I've been loving so much these mirrored (and really inexpensive) sunglasses, so I decided that I should wear a t-shirt that pops the same way the blue lenses do, and there's where my favorite t-shirt came to action. I am absolutely mesmerized about that pretty awesome print that reflects so much coolness as well as a kind of summery vibe, at least that's what I think. 

And tell me, do you also like whole white outfits?

Favorite accessory: Panther choker


I believe we all have certain accessory, certain item that has some mesmerizing power and that makes us feel special every time we wear it, so that's excactly what happens to me with this gorgeous and very daring panther chocker. Ever since I first saw it, back in the winter of 2011, I knew I had to make it mine, it literally was love at first sight. I like it so much because it is such a statement piece (definitelly not for everyone's taste or personality) that looks kind of expensive but it actually is a fantasy jewellery, having in mind that is from the Versace for H&M collection, so I adore the fact that Donatella created this wonderful piece but at a very affordable price for us girls who definitely can't go and buy a bold gold statement necklace just like that. Besides of that, I really think this choker is so me, that's why I love it so much. 

Creo que todos nosotros tenemos cierto accesorio, cierta pieza con un poder hipnótico que nos hace sentir especiales cada vez que la usamos, eso es justamente lo que me sucede con esta hermosa y muy atrevida gargantilla. Desde que la vi, en el invierno de 2011, supe que tenía que ser mía, en verdad que fue amor a primera vista. Me gusta mucho porque es una pieza muy única y llamativa (definitivamente no para todos los gustos o personalidades) que parece costosa pero que realmente es un accesorio de fantasía, teniendo en cuenta que es de la colección de Versace para H&M, así que en verdad adoro el hecho de que Donatella haya creado esta maravillosa pieza pero a un precio muy asequible para nosotras chicas que definitivamente no podemos comprar un llamativo collar de oro así de fácil. Además, pienso que esta gargantilla es tan yo, por eso es que me encanta tanto.

Now tell me guys, do you also have a favorite piece that you really treasure?

Oriental prints and Versace for H&M


This is by far the favorite dress I own (so far) and I swear that these pictures don't show the real beauty of this dress properly, It is very eye catching and therefore daring. I do absolutely adore the vibrancy of those marvelous bright colors mixed together. Seeing it live is a whole different thing and I've got so many compliments when I've worn it. 
If you, as me, were so enchanted by the Versace for H&M collection from november of 2011 and own some pieces, have you realized that most of the items designed by the amazing Donatella Versace for that collection are such a huge trend now in 2013? For example, oriental prints, palms, bomber jackets and pretty cool printed leggings. I admire her so much!

Back to M.A.C program


Who doesn't love to get high quality makeup for free? So in this post I am going to talk you about a really great program where you can do just that. Back to M.A.C is a recyling program developed by this incredible worldwide makeup brand, in which you have to collect 6 empty packagings (not boxes) of your M.A.C makeup and go to your favorite M.A.C Store so that they give you one lipstick of your choice just for free (excluding the Viva Glam collection), if you collect 12 then you get 2 lipsticks, if you collect 18 packagings you get 3 and so on. 
I find this a very noble program since no other brand pays that way for your loyalty, so it really is a win-win relationship. And I know that in some countries M.A.C is kind of expensive (still not as expensive as Dior or Chanel, of course) and some people may say "for the amount of money I pay for that expensive makeup, I don't really see as If I'm really getting a lipstick for free" and that's respectable. Nevertheless, for the people who are used to buy high-end makeup (or who like to buy one M.A.C product once in a while), then this is an amazing option having in mind that with other makeup brands, when your makeup has finished, you just  put the packaging in the trash and that's it, so with the Back to M.A.C program 6 packagings that you would usually put in the trash will instantly translate into a very nice lipstick, isn't that just great?! Indeed it is and I am honestly very enchanted with this program, plus, it is a very nice feeling when you give the packagings and go out the store with new lipsticks without having paid a single penny. 
So this time, I picked up the one I consider the most perfect red lipstick, which is Russian Red (from now on I am a fervient lover of it). And on the other hand I chose something opposite like that beautiful nude color called Pure Zen, and again, they were just for free!! 


A quién no le gusta obtener maquillaje de alta calidad gratis? En esta publicación les voy a hablar sobre un grandioso programa en el que pueden hacer justamente eso. Back to M.A.C es un programa de reciclaje desarrollado por esta increíble marca de maquillaje a nivel mundial, en la que debes reunir 6 envases vacíos (no cajas) de tus cosméticos M.A.C e ir a tu M.A.C Store favorita para recibir un lápiz labial de tu elección de manera gratis (excluyendo la colección Viva Glam), si reúnes 12 entonces obtendrás 2 labiales, si reúnes 18 envases entonces obtendrás 3, y así sucesivamente. 
Pienso que este es un programa muy noble ya que ninguna otra marca paga la lealtad del cliente de esa manera, así que creo que realmente es una relación ganar-ganar. Y sé que en algunos países M.A.C es una marca un tanto costosa (aunque por supuesto, no tanto como Dior o Chanel) y que algunas personas podrían decir "por la cantidad de dinero que pago por cosméticos costosos, realmente no lo veo como si estuviera obteniendo un lápiz labial gratis" y eso es totalmente respetable. Sin embargo, para las personas que suelen comprar maquillaje "high-end" (o a quienes les gusta comprar algún producto M.A.C de vez en cuando), entonces esta es una maravillosa opción teniendo en cuenta que, con otras marcas, cuando tu maquillaje se termina simplemente pones el envase en la basura y ya está, así que con el programa Back to M.A.C, 6 envases se que usualmente pondrías en la basura, instantáneamente se traducirían en un buen lápiz labial, qué genial, no?! Honestamente yo estoy fascinada con este programa, además de que se siente muy bien cuando llegas a la tienda con los envases vacíos y sales con labiales nuevos sin haber gastado ni un sólo centavo. 
En esta ocasión elegí el cual considero es el lápiz labial color rojo más perfecto que existe, Russian Red (a partir de ahora soy una ferviente amante de ese labial). Y por el otro lado elegí algo totalmente opuesto como este lindo color nude llamado Pure Zen, y nuevamente digo: fueron gratis!!

Striped shorts and edgy accents


How much I love a great edgy style, sincirely, I believe that some rocker and edgy accents describe me quite well, although I really love to play with fashion and don't stay caught in just one specific style. And I think that's the fun part of fashion, to kind of dress up and try on some new or some old things again, but of course, without losing the main essence of yourself. And while wanting to wear something that's kinda out of your comfort zone, I believe the important thing is to try to make some feauture of your personality stand out with the items you want to incorporate. 
In this outfit, I am wearing my favorite tights of all times, they recreate suspenders and I certainly adore the sassy touch that they add to the outfit (or actually, to any outfit). On the other hand, I am so madly in love with these very cheap but very awesome sunglasses, I'm just obsessed with them.
Finlally, I hope you all have a nice weekend and enjoy responsibly (by the way, I am not making any beer advertisement :) )!
