Stripes and slingbacks

As I have mentioned before, in April I went to Finland. The reason why I went was to teach an intensive course for a few days. Being a teacher means you are in a constant process of learning and it is so amazing that my students teach me things without them even realising. For example through a presentation prepared by some students there, I got to learn more about a brand that I wasn't very familiar with: Lindex. What amazed me was that although it is all about affordable fashion, it is very committed to sustainability (on their website you can find public information about their suppliers) and also it is very inclusive as it offers a very wide range of sizes! 
Naturally, I was very intrigued so I decided to visit the shop and see the collection. After I went around the store to get an idea of the products offered , I stopped at the sales rack where many pieces were at 50% so I couldn't resist. This dress, despite being knit, is made of viscose and polyester so it's not too hot, suitable for a spring day, it is very comfortable and  the colours are just the cutest! Possibly I won't be able to use it for the next few months but sooner or later the perfect weather for it will arrive!

Pink dress, cool sunglasses

I am trying to remember when my fascination for pink started. Of course as a girl growing up in the 90s I had a colourful wardrobe but then puberty kicked in, I got chubbier and more self-conscious about my body so I started having a thing for neutral colours. But then I realised that it doesn't matter if I dress in black or any bright colour, I will still be a curvy girl! So I decided to embrace my love for pink and started filling my closet with it.
Sometimes I think I should cut down on the pink pieces that I buy but it is just so hard! I have had the dress for about 5 years and when the weather gets cooler like now, it is the perfect way to look pretty and keep warm. And since we still get sun despite the fresh air, a pair of cool sunglasses makes a great match.

Pink for the cold

Keeping warm and looking stylish is difficult to pull! Try a colourful coat to give a flair to your outfit and although you might say that the ugg boots are not the chicest of them all, they can guarantee you comfort and warmth :)
