Of all the trends from the new season, the least worn yet still able to win me over until it became an addiction, were the ethnic, aztecs and native pieces.
I love this Topshop hair accessory, I could use it every day, it makes any simple outfit a must.

I take this opportunity to remind you that you only have three days to participate in the butterfly saree giveaway (typically indian outfit, the term "butterfly"characterizes the style of the saree). See the giveaway post with more information here.


De todas as tendências da nova estação, o que menos usei mas que se entranhou até se tornar um vício, foram as peças com design étnico, azteca e nativo.
Adoro este acessório para cabelo da Topshop, poderia usá-lo todos os dias, e torna qualquer roupinha por mais simples que seja num must.

Aproveito para lembrar-vos que só têm apenas  3 dias para participarem no giveaway do butterfly saree (traje tipicamente indiano, o termo "butterfly" caracteriza o estilo do saree). Vejam o post de como participar no giveaway aqui.

Once Upon A Time














"Mirror mirror on the wall: Who’s the fairest of them all?" It's a tough call, with Julia Roberts and Lily Collins, the stars of Tarsem Singh’s aptly titled Mirror Mirror facing off against Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart in Rupert Sanders’Snow White and the Huntsman (out this June). To add to this tale of dueling Brothers Grimm, Hollywood has a whole storybook full of reimagined fairy tales, fables. But if you’re looking for true flights of fashion whimsy, search no further than the pages of Vogue. From Belle (Drew Barrymore) gazing into a magical looking glass in Annie Leibovitzs take on Beauty and the Beast to Lady Gaga playing Hansel and Gretel’s wicked witch in a face-obscuring wig created by Julien D’Ys, a trip through our archives is nothing short of fantastical. (via)

Salt n' Pepper






 
Despite having a strong desire to buy new pieces for spring, there is always a time of the year that I try to re-use everything I still can from the last season's collection before it gets really hot. It really depends, sometimes we just want to wear the spring collection even though its still cold and some other times, the heat starts up, but we still feel like wearing the pieces to make the most of the previous season. Does this frequently happens to you?

Apesar de estar com uma vontade enorme de comprar peças novas para a primavera, existe sempre uma altura do ano que eu tento resistir ao máximo e voltar a usar tudo o que ainda posso da colecção passada antes que chegue realmente o calor da nova estação. São fases, às vezes queremos logo vestir as coisas de primavera ainda que esteja frio e outras vezes o calor começa a apertar, mas ainda nos apetece aproveitar ao máximo as peças da estação anterior. Não vos costuma acontecer?

The Illustrated Guide To Fall’s Hottest Accessories

Alexander McQueen's shoes were coming up in blooms.

Oversized hat - one of the biggest statements made this past NY Fashion Week.

The shoe everyone will be wearing next season, the knee-high Alexander Wang boots.

Dolce & Gabanna pioneer the caterpillar eyebrow look.

Balenciaga's tied-up pump, a little naughty but also a little nice.

Burberry modern redo of the hat box.

With a translucent, crystal heel, Chanel's fall shoe frankly, well, rocked.

Lanvin created another luxe collection of jewelry. Really fabulous this mega-pendant necklace.

With velcro straps and mesh paneling, these are the Proenza booties.

Prada's lovely geometric prints found their way onto bags.
