Outfit Idea:: Funnel Neck Sweater and Winter Floral


"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: is the time for home"

Hi dolls! I hope you are having a great week. Mine has been busy...good busy :)
We had a few "not so cold days" last week, but here we are again with 35° F. but it FEELS LIKE: 24° F. Not because the weather changes a little will I let my guard down since Winter is not over yet. Furthermore to brave this climate, a funnel sweater, high boots, and a wool coat are great. Adding a little bit of color and winter floral -pants- makes me think of Spring ^_^. Regarding the necklace, love how the green stones look on top of that intense red. I hope you like this proposal
How are you coping during this Winter?

Hola muñecas! Espero que estes teniendo una hermosa semana. La mia esta bien ocupada... de la buena :)
Hemos tenido un par de dias que no fueron  muy frios, la semana pasada; pero eso ahora estamos otra vez con 35° F. pero se SIENTE COMO: 24° F. Asi es que no dejare que mi guardia baje porque hayamos tenido esos dias ya que el Invierno todabia no se fue. Ademas de eso para encarar el frio un sueter de lana con cuello alto, botas altas, y un tapado/abrigo de lana vienen mas que bien. Agregando un poquin de color y un toque de flores en honda invernal me hace pensar de la Primavera ^_^. Sobre el collar, me encanta como el color verde de las piedras se ven encima de ese color rojo intenso.Espero les haya gustado esta propuesta.
Como estas encarando el Invierno donde vives?

Wearing an up-do was great because I wanted to show case the neck of the sweater.

Tener el pelo atado fue bueno ya que el cuello del sueter se muestra en una manera mas linda.

Casual Friday: Plaids and Military Vibe


English
Hi dolls! Just wanted to pass by and share a casual Friday outfit idea. Taking advantage of my break from the studio art to post it.
Today, I'm combining three things that I love; plaids, military, and studs. I love how the colors of the shirt and the jacket complement each other. I hope you like this casual take. Have a great Friday everyone! By the way, the pics are from my husband's cellphone. What a great and fast way to post :) 
ps.- thank you for your lovely comments on the last post (looking forward to replying them ♡)

SNOWED IN:: MONOCHROMATIC LOOK


Snow brings out the child inside. Snow makes me happy .
~ Me
________________

La nieve hace que la niña de adentro mio salga afuera. La nieve me hace feliz .
~ Yo



English
The white veil of snow covering everything right now has inspired me to try out this monochromatic look. I started with a hue in my head , camel. Based on that I started gathering all of my clothes and accessories that were in the same color family. I broke it up with touches of red, hence the gloves and the lipstick, and a touch of leopard. Has anyone tried out monochromatic looks for winter?
_________________

La nieve es como un velo blanco cubriendo todo estos dias y me inspiro a combinar un atuendo monocromatico. Primero empeze con un color, camel. Y basado en eso agarre la ropa y accesorios que esten en la misma familia de color. Di unos toques de rojos con los guantes y el lapiz de labios y me tente de usar la carterita/billetera de leopardo a que esos colores siempre se ven bien con este estampado.
Cuentame, has vestido atuendos monocromaticos en este Invierno?

Burberry Hearts: DIY Valentine's Day Inspired Nails




 Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
Today's Inspiration is the hearts of Burberry Collection Fall-Winter 2013. Have a great day.
____________________

Feliz dia del Amor y la Amistad!
La inspiracion del dia es los corazones de la Coleccion de Burberry de Otoño-Invierno 2013. Que tengas un hermoso dia.


Burberry Collection 

Supplies: Nail Polish, toothpick, hair clips and plastic top.
________________

Se Necesita: Esmalte de uñas, palitos de dientes, ganchitos de perlo y tapa de plastico.

Don't worry about the mess, we'll clean everything up at the end
__________________

No te preocupes del color en los dedos, se limpiara al final.

Place small amount of nail polish on the plastic top (It's better if the dots are very small, and you'll know why in the next step) Use a tooth pick to start with two dots (Use what it's easier for you)
_________________

Agrega un poco de esmalte en la tapa de plastico. Usa un palito de dientes para empezar con dos puntitos (Usa lo que es mas facil para ti). 
Es preferible que los puntitos sean pequeños y sabras porque en el siguiente paso.




Now drag a line in a V shape. (I had to do re-do this part starting with smaller dots since the heart I ended up with was too big for my taste).
____________________

Ahora agrega una linea y forma una V y despues rellena. (Tuve que re-hacerlo ya que termine con un corazon grande).

And Voilà !
The hearts are smaller since I re-did the process starting with smaller dots
______________

Y Listo !

Termine con corazon mas pequeños ya que hice el proceso otra vez, empezando con pequeñitos puntos.

Jenna Lyons Inspired Outfit


"Through others we become ourselves"
~ Lev S. Vygotsky
____________

"A través de otros, nos convertimos en nosotros mismos"
Lev S. Vygotsky



Hi beauties! Today's Look is an Inspired Outfit. Jenna Lyons is the Creative Director of J.Crew which is one of the most influential brands in the country. She has such an stunning, edgy and preppy style that inspires the brand, and a lot of women (including me ).

_____________________


Hola bellezas! El atuendo de hoy es una recreacion inspirada. Jenna Lyons es la Directora Creativa de una de las marcas mas de gran influencia en el pais, les hablo de J.Crew. El estilo de esta mujer poderosa es  una mescla sobresaliente, de moda, de tendencia y tambien preppy el cual inspira la marca de ropa y a muchas mujeres (incluyendome )

I liked the idea of recreating her look with items I had in my closet. I based this look on the color palette. I chose these shoes since hers look more like purple to me. I tried my blue pumps, but the outfit looked better with these ones. I think her statement piece is the jacket ,besides those cute glasses. My statement piece is my studded clutch - though I love my glasses more *^-^*
I really hope you like this recreation. kisses!
_______________________

Me encanto la idea de recrear este atuendo con cosas que ya tenia en mi armario. Basicamente este look esta inspirado en la paleta de color y no en el tipo de ropa. Elegi estos zapatos ya que en mi opinion, los zapatos de ella son como mas moraditos. Primero intente con mis zapatos azules pero al final opte por estos ya que todo se veia mejor. Creo que la pieza principal de ella es la chaqueta, a parte de sus lentes. Mi pieza principal es mi cartera de tachuelas - y obviamente me encanta mis lentes mucho mas *^-^*

Shoes and Bag Combo: Studs & Suede.
I'm a big fan of anything studded, even though I don't wear them very often. This clutch is the first studded item I have ever bought. It's so precious to me, I keep it nice and neat in my closet lol!. I should use it more frequently, like my other favorite items.Pairing studs with suede shoes is a great way to play with textures.

Do you keep your favorite things tucked away in your closet or you use them a lot?
________________________

Zapatos y Cartera Combinacion: Tachuelas y Gamuza
Soy una gran fanatica de cosas con tachuelas aunque no las use super seguido. Esa cartera es tan preciada para mi que la mantengo bien cuidad y guardadita en mi closet jejeje.. Deberia de usarla mas seguido, como mis otras cosas preferidas.
Mesclar tachuelas con gamuza es una gran manera de jugar con texturas.
Y tu, mantienes tus cosas favoritas bien guradadas en tu closet o las usas bien seguido?


Accessories-Jewelry: 
My ring was a Valentine's Day gift from my husband and I have worn it every day since. It means a lot to me *^-^*
The eye-glasses are prescription. I know, I'm new to this. Though I don't need to wear them all the time,  this night I needed them. Picture below: First time wearing Prescription eyeglasses. So dolls, what do you think? 
The earrings were a great score from Macy's. Bought them for about $7. They are so cute. And the necklace is an old gold chain necklace. I wore it without a pendant, in a more minimalist way.
