A Real Housewife


And today, we bring the blues ;). Good morning everyone! How about paring that maxi skirt with a simple white t-shirt and to keep us warm at work, throw on a colorful light-weight blazer. Wearing this outfit was great since everytime I do groceries I feel cold, bbrrr.
I find myself very comfortable wearing a loose outfit. White, Blue & Aquamarine are great combo to pull off. 
Have a great day.

Y hoy traemos los azules ;). Buenos dias! Que honda si vestimos una falda maxi con una simple remera/top/polo blanco y para mantenernos abrigadas en el trabajo, solo basta un blazer de color de tela liviana. Vestir este blazer me vino bien, ya que siempre me da frio cada vez que voy a hacer las compras ...bbbrr.
La verdad que me gusta vestir ropa holgada/suelta, me siento comoda. Blanco, Azul y Aguamarina son un buen combo a probar.
Que tengas un muy buen dia.


I'm sorry for being in the phone while the pictures were taken... I just didn't have a good chance to take better pictures, but I guess these ones portrayed a housewife in action, right?

Disculpenme por estar en el telefono mientras las fotos fueron tomadas ... es que no tuve una buen oportunidad de tomar mejores, aunque creo estas me muestran como una esposita bien ocupada, cierto? jiji

Bohemian Look Idea: Vibrant Hues & Leopard Print

As many of you already know, I have a very special place in my heart for Bohemian/Hippie Style. I love the freedom and romanticism of it. I also love color, and so I thought about combining both. I chose to pair this gorgeous skirt and accessories with this leopard top. What pattern screams of Autumn better than animal/leopard print? It's Autumn's style/fragance! I hope you like this idea :)

Como muchas ya saben, tengo un lugar especial en mi corazon para el estilo Bohemio/Hippie. Me fascina la libertad y romanticismo que brinda. Tambien me encanta los colores, asi es que para este look decidi combinarlos los dos. Elegi esta blusita de estampado leopardo para combinarla con esta hermosa falda y accesorios. Que mas puede gritar a Otoño que el estampado de leopardo? Este estampado es la fragancia/estilo del Otoño. Espero les guste esta idea :)



I think this is my last summery shoes & bag combination. These days have been a little cooler than last week.

Color Block Skirt and Floral Top

I know this skirt is a little bit bigger for my body, but I kind like how it fits. Most women want to hide their hips, unlike me. I found this skirt satisfying since it makes me look I have hips ;). About my makeup: I applied blush on my cheeks and wore lipstick. I only wore concealer on my eyes, no eye shadows or mascara this time
_____________________

Yo se que esta falda me queda un poquito grande, pero me gusta como me queda ya que me agrega un poquito mas de caderas y como ya se los habia comentado, yo no tengo muchas caderas :). Sobre el maquillaje: Use rubor y lapiz de labios y en mis ojos solo use corrector. No sombras o mascara de pestañas esta vez.



Top: H&M, Skirt: Urban Outfitters, Bag: Guess by Macy's, Belt: Asos, Watch: Christian Audigier

Colorblock and Leopard print

Learning how to mix trends is fun! Here I'm mixing color blocking with animal print. Originally, I wanted to wear another top, but I changed my mind. I actually liked this more. Changing your mind at the last minute can be better.
Regarding my footwear, we can make so many different outfits with a new pair of shoes. These sandals make a huge difference for my wardrobe. Teaming them up with these clothes was great!
* Combo:: Color Block/White-Nude-Orange ; Patterns/Leopard-Black & White *

Español
Aprendiendo a mesclar diseños is divertido. Aqui estoy mesclando bloques de colores y animal print. Originalmente queria vestir otro top, pero cambie de idea. Actualmente, me gusta como va este top con esta falda mas. Te ha pasado a ti eso? De cambiar de idea a el ultimo momento and te sale mejor?
Sobre mis zapatos, podemos hacer muchos atuendos con solo agregar un par de zapatos nuevos a nuestro closet. Usar la misma ropa y esos zapatos nuevos hara una gran diferencia. Poner esta ropa junta con estas sandalias fue buenisimo!
* Combo:: Bloques de Color/ Blanco-Anaranjado-Color Piel; Estampado/Leopardo-Blanco&Negro *




What I Wore
  • Top: Urban Outfitters (2011)
  • Skirt (falda): Victoria's Secret (2011)
  • Clutch (sobre): Spiegel (2010)
  • Sandals: Zara  Basic Sandal
  • Sunglasses (lentes): Asos

Color Blocking: Hot Pink and Blue

Trying colors is so much fun! Nude pumps and a beige top were a great way to keep the outfit on the good side. I only wore a turquoise ring. This time, I didn't want to wear so many pieces of jewelry since the outfit stands out on its own. Have you tried this trend? Leave your commentaries below.

Español: Vestir ropa colorida es muy divertido! Use zapatos y top de color piel para mantener el atuendo en linea. Solo use un anillo de color turquesa. En esta ocasion, no quise usar mucha joyeria ya que el atuendo sobresalia por si mismo. Y tu, ya estas usando esta tendencia? Dejame tus comentarios en la seccion de abajo.





  • Chadwicks Blazer $12.90 was $40.00 Got it from  MJRSales
  • Nordstrom Top
  • Skirt. It was a dress, but I cut it. Now it fits me better as a skirt.
  • Leah Vixamar pumps $12.99  (through MJRsales) Original price was $68

Three Color Combination:: Orange-Yellow-Purple

Three color combo from my archives.
---------------
Tres colores combinacion traido de mi archivo de ideas.
I really liked remixing these hues. It is exciting trying to mix bold colors and in this case I chose to wear two on my clothes while adding a third one by using a colored clutch. Nude pumps were a great option to keep this outfit on a tree color block. Do you like to wear color?


Español
Me encanta mesclar estos colores. En este caso quise usar dos colores diferente en mi ropa y agregar un tercer color por medio de mi cartera. Opte por color piel para los zapatos asi mantuvia el look en tres colores. Te gusta vestir color?




Asos top, clutch and watch. JCPenney jeans, Aldo pumps.

Color Block-4 colors


I'm so happy wearing colors !!! This is one more color block outfit. Yellow, Purple, Blue Topaz and Orange brown ! who would have thought that these colors will look good together !! 
Traduccion:
Re feliz vistiendo colores!!!! Una idea mas de vestuario usando color. Amarillo, Morando, Azul Topaz y Naranjita marron ! quien hubiese pensado que estos colores se verian tan lindo juntos !!



Another trend on accessories for this Summer that I'm rocking is The Rubber Watch. They came in so many colors. I personally love more a white watch, it just adds sophistication to an outfit making a beautiful statement.

Otra tendencia en accesorios en este Verano son los Relojes de Goma. Vienen en diferentes colores pero yo preferi en blanco ya que agrega sofisticacion a el vestuario y luce muy hermoso.
