Winter 2015

Hello Hello my dears! Happy New Year to everyone!
Im sorry i haven´t said a word in literally, ages! Kind Santa gave me a camera for Xmas so im fully equipped to shoot my #OOTD and share them with you! I´ve missed this so much but family vacation - means no social network therefore it were the most painful and blog-craving weeks of my life, but i promise im back on track with new clothes, new camera and new me i guess? Isn't is the goal of every year to change yourself but by the end of the year realize you´re still the same height,weight and drama queen as you used to be! So no need or false goals and promises to yourself and your beloved body and lets aim at something achievable - for me for example, it will be do as many giveaways as possible, because i love you! Join and collaborate with shops and finally find a way to get money because my wish lists and buckets are getting 3 and even 4 digital! For now, my dear fashionistas, I´d like to share with you what this winter is going to be about? What should we were and shop this season, with help of my favourite magazine and dream work place - VOGUE.

1. Sweet Sixties
Who doesn't get inspired with those times of baby dolls Twiggy and Penelope Tree? Pastel colours, Mini-Skirts and trapeze dresses are going to be the New Black of the season! All though this time, lets steal the artsy side of ours from Spring/Summer 2014 runways and add some prints and shapes, updated with the modern twist for this season, to our wardrobe!

2. All over knits
Staying home in blankets and granny, ugly Christmas sweaters, isn't that the best feeling ever? Well now, we are allowed to go like this outside - No Judgy Zone! One of the most eye-catching and striking trends for this Winter is the comfortingly soft, full look in wool, as seen at Stella McCartney, Marc Jacobs and Céline. To keep it cozy lets make it natural, creamy colours will be the best choice!

3. XXL coats
`Daaaad? Can i borrow your coat?´ As the eternal classic, the ¾ length coat cut a longer length this season. And the beauty of the trend, is that you can use as well as heels, sporty trainers like Nike Roche and Air Max to bring the urban part of you and combine it with sexy classy we all love!

4. Goldmine
Gold took to the spotlight as it cascaded across the Fall/Winter 2014-2015 runways. Making audiences want to hit the dance floor, the gold rush trend was seen at Saint Laurent, Prada, Chloé and Moschino.

5. Night birds
"If you´re a bird, I´m a bird" Noah and Allies Dream come true this season! The couture touch of feathers graced ready-to-wear runways this season. Soft and light, the plumes added a touch of refined elegance to each silhouette, floating breezily down the runway, as light as the wings of a bird.

6. Fairytales
After the magic of Victoria´s Secret Show we immerse in the fascination of fairytales! From Little Red Riding Hood, to Snow White and the Queen of Hearts, Fall/Winter 2014-2015's collections were dreamy and imaginative. Delicate fabrics and precious embroidery were a homage to some of the most famous fairytales.

7. Tailoring
I was wondering, what can i do with all the jackets and jeans that M once forgot or lend me wear? Thank god, designers solved my problem! This winter, suits take on a masculine edge, as girls walked the runway in boyfriend-borrowed ensembles. Big, Edgy + smells like him? Im definitely wearing that this season!

8. Military khaki
Balmain Army of Lovers had blown my mind! Kim Kardashian And Kanye´s photos we literally as my desktop background! I really think this new era of sexy military outfits by Olivier Rousteing influenced a lot the trend of this season! Step in the line to hit the streets with looks from Fall/Winter 2014-2015. Khaki is the dominating color as well as Olives an Burgundies!

9. Optical monochrome
Black and white went graphic on the runway, as designers presented intricately geometric patterns, The prints of the season created hypnotic images and optical illusions. Catch their eyes and steal their attention with mind-blowing patterns of your clothes, this is what it is about!

10. Poncho
I remember i never really like Ponchos when i was little, it was impossible to play and kind of uncomfortable but when you grow you realize the beauty of it - the free movements! An iconic piece of folk style, the poncho was a key appeal on the Burberry collection of ponchos which you can personalize with Initials od your name! I just love personalised items but when you can make your coat with the two or three letters of your name this is just a must have for me!

11. Capes
On the same line with Ponchos - Capes are striking this season! Whether scarlet, embroidered with pearls or delicate designs, paired with a fur hood, or straight from Grimm's Fairy Tales, the cape is the outerwear piece of choice for Fall/Winter 2014.

Keep it stylish and trendy lovelies, see you soon with bunch of new posts and outfits!

Winter Wishlist

Ho Ho Ho Lovelies!
A little late but i finally finished my Wishlist and some ideas and shops where to buy presents for your girl friends! All thought those shops have boy section as well! you can look through and get some ideas, but below I'll list some ideas for presents for our beloved male population of this planet :)
Ive recently become addicted to shiny sequin things! I went to research some dresses and here you have some of my favorites:

1. White Dress 2. Beige One 3.Sequin Green 4.Mesh One

And here you have the things Id like to get from my favorite shops and link as Im such a nice person :)
Enjoy!

TOPSHOP

Pencil Case or Make up Bag Sequin Backpack Sequin Hand Back Snake Skaters

Urban Outfitters

Xmas Jumper FishEye Iphone Lens Iphone Case Metallic Wallet
Gold Reversible Bag

ZARA

Cat Ears Hat Colorful Scarf Reversible Black RedWine Bag

Nasty Gal

Rainbow Film #GIRLSBOOK Blush Sneaker Furry Case

So now, finally to the Part i struggle the most every time theres an anniversary, a special date or a holiday.. Presents for boys! The fashion industry and not only, developed so feel in the girls area, you just have to walk in the shopping moll and choose anything cos we might all be same we are different but actually we are pretty same in these while boys are picky and different and you can't buy a surfer things for horse riding can you? ahah so here you have my ideas What to give to our boys? The biggest advice i could give is listen to them Sometimes you don't realize that in a civilized conversation but they might say their favorite shops or things, or things they'd wanna get and stuff like that and learn to take a note of them in your phone for example!

Lets start with the part which is more personal! If your feeling crafty to do something with your own hands you can do:
1. A Frame! Buy a simple IKEA frame and decorate it the way you want it! Put a photo or a collage with your favorite photos and stickers to make it funnier :)
2. Posters are cool too, but if you're good in drawing why not painting one of your photos? You can trace it or project on it to keep proportions and make it more real :) He'll be proud to put it u his wall!
3. Sometimes, the present it self is not as interesting as the way you present it! Once, I decided to do a Treasure Hunt in Cascais with places that meant something to us and each each stop - there were six - there was a present and a hint for the next stop! The hints could be phrases, pictures, date and he would have to drive around and find them! WARNING! They get cocky and annoying in the beginning but the happiness after the hint is completed which was in Guincho right by the time of sunset! (Perfect timing :)
4. Did you ever had those moments when you randomly decide to tell him something while for example studying and then you realize his not listening to you but to his music! So why not turn this situation around and give him Headphones, a good quality like beats for example or even Speakers, portable so he can take it anywhere!
5. Music idea got to me while i was in the place where i listen to the music most of the time - in the gym - and then i was thinking, if your boy is a Gym Addict, would be nice to give him some new equipment? New running shoes from Nike, a gym bag with devisions (make him more organized) stuff like that!
6. When i was younger, mom was obsessed with teaching my how to Knit and then in between some jokes i was dared to make wool boxers for my best friend.. i started but got bored, since I'm a very moving person and that activity required time and patience but the idea was cool and i wish i would finish it! You can also make a hat with your design, like a minion or an animal that you like to call each other or associate! Keep your boy warm in these cold rainy days :)
7. If your boy is just as crafty as you are (maybe not… ahah) you can surprise him with a new Sketchbook or album, new pens and pencils, paint or graffiti sprays! Maybe he'll make a portrait for you or an amazing graffiti with your name, just give him materials :) hihi
8. A present could be as simple as Clothing! Simple white t-shirt can be with a simple design because some complicated things are not for everyone, but if your sure he will like it, go for it! But in this situation i let my inner feeling choose the t shirt or pants for him, walking around shelfs and shops and there it is, shinning in white bright light and rising above the holders, the t shirt you see your boy in and then you know its the one!
9. As well as clothes you can give him Shoes! But they are more tricky! Take him for YOUR shoe shopping and go to shops where they gave make as well as female, notice if he looks at any, touches or you can even ask him directly but again, don't make it too obvious.. step by step find our the size, the colors, the brand, the type… :)
10. As you might've understood already, what is made by you is another level! So idea what to add to your main present would be Stickers! His favorite symbol, name or singers signature or something like that, you can order any amount and place it on his car/motorcycle, or books and around house :) Will always remind him of you!
11. To make it clear for others he's yours make it clear, personalize a Phone case with collage of your photos :) Nice and easy!
12. Notice his hobbies and things he likes to do in free time! Surfing? Its not just about the board or swimsuit but there are many other little things.. i only know fins and the thing they connect to the leg! New equipment is always nice so why not? But! We can make it more personal! I never like blank white boards so i decide to decorate Ms! You can make a Design yourself, buy posca pens and show your artsy skills! You can personalize finds as well :) You can do similar to the Skateboard if your boy is more of the Earth Type sports:)
13. Lacking Punctuality? Buy him a Watch! I personally like bossy watches or cool and practical watches for surfers, which actually doesn't have to be worn just by Surfers!
14. Does he have a motorcycle? Give him Helmet! They have amazing designs online and not only, different shapes and functions will keep your boy safe! (As i love personalized things - you can buy a simple black or white and design something on top of it :P)
15. Have you seen those tumblr posts with one of the things we all get obsessed about - smells! A new cologne would be a good thing to give! I personally love male perfume shopping, but this time you will need your heart to guide you through! looking through little bottles and different shapes there will be one which one breeze of it will remind you of him and that would be THE ONE! But be careful, don't buy him the one he has already :)

16. Be sweat! Like literally.. Sweets and chocolates are cute and easy to get, Hussel has chocolates in shapes and amazing sweets! Good addition to your presents:)

Well thats it! If i have more Ideas ill update it on my Facebook page!

Hope you have a Great Christmas and Amazing time with your loved family and friends followed by Crazy New Years Eve!

Dreaming in Reality

Hello Lovelies!

Yesterday was the day when we got to see the true angels come from the skies and show us the beautiful and magic Victoria´s Secret show! All though Ive watched all the possible instagram videos from bloggers who get to see the show from first rows, Im still watched the full show! With my ice cream and hot chocolate, my pillows and blankets, cozy sweatpants and loads of tissues i was totally ready for it! Obviosuly afterwards i was super motivated to go to the gym and run and do all the stuff to get the dream body, but once again my attempt was stopped by delicious smell coming from my kitchen and as always I said ´tomorrow´ and guess what, im sitting here, eating my cookies and writing this post... Yup, thats my life... and i hope you get me, cos i don't wanna be the only one in this daily struggle!

The show contained 6 collections and as the biggest stalker and fashion addict I've seen every ´news´from Vogue and other magazines to find these amazing pictures and choose my favourite looks from the show and after party as well:) Ive also read a lot and watched the video they´ve made.. agh they are such beauties and if some people say ´oh this photo is totally photoshopped, you can't trust magazines´these 40 or something models are true beauties! And what suprised me a lot this year that Doutzen Kroes went on the catwalk with beautifully done body after she had a baby.. all tho i just realised im getting old and that was like 2 3 years ago.. Oops, never mind!

The show was accompanied by 4 singers! Taylor Swift - who was dressed in VS as well, and actually she was looking pretty good ;) Ariana Grande, Ed Sheeran and Hozier!

OMG! Btw, have you seen the endless amount of memes that were recently made, with Arianas scared face when one of the angles touched her with the wings! Poor Ariana, the face she made gone viral, see for yourself:

well, her face is just one thing, but Ariana doesn't stop surprising us with new things and making us laugh! During the performance Young Grande told Ed a pretty dirty joke! Read what he said for !E

"It was fun, but I kind of felt like the hobbit in the elven kingdom!" Sheeran joked. "Can I tell you why I was laughing? Basically, there were all these big inflatable bouncy black balls that are bouncing around in the crowd on the finale bit. Ariana Grande comes and stands up next to me and just looks at me and goes, 'I love big black balls.'"

LOL!

"In my head I was like, 'If she knows what that means, then I love her, and if she doesn't know what that means, it's even better!" the 23-year-old added.

Who knew Grande was so raunchy?!

***

I was researching something for you and look what i found (has nothing to do with what i was actually trying to find but still..)

A video that some of the Angles have done with Taylors song - Shake it Off

(which i sincerely hate and can't hear anymore because its aaaaalways on the radio! Sorry Swift fans :/)

What i was actually researching, were the fun and interesting facts about the Shows which were going on since 1995!!

Did you know that Tyra Banks ->

.. was actually a Victorias Secret Angel for around 4 years starting from 1996!! 3 years later Adriana Lima joined Angels team and she's one of them since them!

And she got to wear one of the biggest and heaviest wings! Which speaking off here you have other 8 biggest wings from previous shows and 1 which were worn this show by Lindsay Ellingson!

1 row Down: Lais Ribeiro, Karolina Kurkova, Heidi Klum; 2 row down: Alessandra Ambrosio, Anja Rubik, Karolina Kurkova, 3 row down: Heidi Klum, Chanel Iman and finally bellow: Lindsay Ellingson!

Before i go onto telling you my favourite looks of this season, here you have 1 more fact!

In 1996 Victorias Secret has created a Fantasy Bra, which first was warn by Claudia Schiffer and its price was 1,000,000 dollars! Can you imagine?? It was even called Million Dollar Miracle Bra!
