How to look sharp these festive days and at the same time feel comfortable and warm? This is the look I settled for!

Merry Xmas!

Just on time to share with you my outfit from a Christmas party I went to this year!

Sweats and fur

Well the title might be confusing but I have proof that it can be done, you can really combine them!

Combining trends

Two trends of the season into one outfit: chessboard print and cobalt blue.  Oh and let´s not forget the peplum that has been around for a while ;)

LBD and pearls

Another day at work having to look fancy and what is more efficient than the little black dress and pearl earrings?

A visit to the men´s department

We women are so lucky when it comes to fashion. The choices are infinite and top of all, the trends allow us to pick things even from the boys department! So naturally when I saw this tank top with the cat print in the men´s section I just could not resist!

Tartan is the new black

By now you probably know that my work doesn´t require a very strict dress code but there are some days that I have to do a little less casual. So I chose to give in to the tartan trend and combine it with classic black and blue.

Blue and green tartan pencil skirt: ASOS CURVE/ dark blue kitten heels: ZARA/ black blouse: H&M/ cat and mouse earrings: MAROULENIA/ gold giraffe bracelet: BERNA BROWN BY BERNA

Hot pink and pearls

Remember how I mentioned I went shopping to H&M in Mexico City? Well the time has come to share my new buys with you starting with this small satchel!

Polka dots, bows and cowboy boots

Well you must be wondering how can it be possible that one day I post photos wearing a sweater and a coat and the other with a short dress and no tights? Well the climate where I live is not the most stable one and the temperature can one day be 35 degrees Celsius and the next 5 so that explains the diversity of my outfits and why it is impossible to store your summer clothes during winter ;)

Tribute to Marc

One of my favourite fashion designers who I really admire is Marc Jacobs so I decided to show the world by making him a print ;)

The power of the necklace

Once again I present to you the power of the necklace. It is just so simple to give a twist to your every day outfit!

Shopping in Mexico City

In order to complete the tales of my long weekend trip to Mexico City I must let you know that apart from going to bars and sightseeing, I did some shopping as well! I took advantage of the fact that there is an H&M store (we´ll see what I got in the blog soon) and Pandora stores and decided to extend my collections of charms for my bracelet by 2... A dress charm for the fashionista me and a Sagrada Familia charm for the traveler me...

Denim shirt and boyfriend jeans: ASOS CURVE/ nude ballet flats: ASOS/ black purse: DKNY/ silver charm bracelet with various charms: PANDORA

Visiting Frida

Mexico City was not just about going to bars, it was also about sightseeing. One of the places we visited was the Studio-House of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. And what a better way to honour the great artist than wearing a t-shirt with her? That is also a great way to renew your wardrobe: You take plain coloured shirts that you have worn many times and you silkscreen them!

Blue boyfriend jeans: ASOS CURVE/ black tank top (worn underneath): Primark/ black purse and sunglasses: DKNY/ green linen t-shirt: Zara and then silkscreened with Frida Kahlo´s portrait by me

Night out in Mexico

The great thing about big cities like Mexico City where I was 2 weeks ago is that a great bar can always be around the corner of your apartment. And you don´t need to dress up to enjoy cocktails with your friends :)
