Christmas Tree Shopping

 

A couple of days ago we went Christmas tree shopping, and of course it's always magical! You get out of the car and immediately you smell the wonderful evergreens. No matter what excuse we all have, work, study, etc., I always tell myself that Christmas is not Christmas without a tree. I'm assuming you all get that artificial trees DO NOT count. Now, I'm happy with my enormous tree, giving off my favorite nature scent to all my apartment. Nothing like waking up, and go to the kitchen to get the coffee, and suddenly realize, "It's Christmas"!   

Anyways, I can keep going and going about Christmas, let me just tell you about my outfit. I'm wearing my fabulous poncho, which in fact, even though is open, is really warm, and wearing for the first time my new red velvet beauties. I wanted to wear them for something special, and what more special than red velvet booties during Christmas and choosing our tree?!

Marni for H&M

I can't wait for this! Hopefully, I can get my hands on what it seems will be a colorful gorgeous collection. The S/S collection will be available by March 8, 2012.

Are you excited?!

Thanksgiving Day

I had a great Thanksgiving day, full of laughter and of course lots of food! Everyone contributed something delicious. We finished the day with a movie; "The devil wears Prada", and surprisingly the guys liked it. Hope you had a great day and weekend! 

Tuve un gran dia de Acción de Garcias, lleno de risas y por supuesto de mucha comida! Todo el mundo contribuyo algo delicioso. Terminamos el día con la película "The devil wears Prada" y sorprendentemente a los muchachos le gusto. Espero que hallan tenido un gran día y fin de semana. 

Shiny Autumn

Another autumn day, but this one was a curious one... It was extremely windy and cold during the day; I couldn't feel my fingers. I think is time to start wearing gloves! However, it was nicer during the afternoon, and I decided to take the tights off, I think it looks better. Day light is getting shorter and shorter, is already dark at ~ 5:00 pm. It's really funny cause at 8pm I feel like is 11pm and I just want to sleep all the time. I'm not really used to this, being raised in the shiny sun of Puerto Rico doesn't really help me :) 

So how about my outfit? Can't get enough of sequins and metallics! I decided to go a little funky with the flannel shirt to dress down the outfit. Shiny, why not?

Otro día de otoño, pero ese fue uno peculiar... Estuvo bien frío y ventoso durante el día, no podía sentir mis dedos. ¡Creo que es hora de empezar a usar guantes! Sin embargo, estuvo mucho mejor en la tarde y pues decidí quitarme las medias, creo que se ve mejor asi. La luz solar cada vez es mas corta, esta totalmente oscuro a eso de las 5pm. Es bastante gracioso porque a las 8pm me siento como si fueran las 11pm y solo quiero dormir. Realmente no estoy acostumbrada a esto y el haber crecido bajo el brillante sol de Puerto Rico no me ayuda :)

Pues que creen de mi atuendo?  ¡No me canso de las lentejuelas y lo metálico! Decidi irme un poco "funky" y usar una flanela para hacer el outfit un poco mas casual. ¿Brillante, por que no?

Packages

Don't you love when you receive a box all properly wrapped instead of the slouchy bag with everything inside getting ruined? Thanks Zara and Clinique for that! As you can see from the picture above, my urge for sequins continue. Can you guess what I got? I really really can't get enough of sequins, especially with the holidays coming up. Did you already started to think about your looks for the holidays, I have. 

PS. Thanks for all the lovely comments in the previous post, they literally make my day!

Have a great weekend!

Parisian Touch

Bonjour! I have to say I'm in love with this location, is a mix of modern and old right next to each  other, perfect for playing with pictures. Do you like the location? Which side do you prefer, modern or vintage like? For this outfit I'm wearing my most special hat of all. I got this hat from Paris in a hat store right in front The Lourve, how can that not be special? To complete the moment, a very stylish (french style of course) old men sold it to me, I don't know, I felt I was in an older France in that store, not 2009 France, ooh la la! 

Bon week-end! 

Bonjour! Bueno les tengo que decir que estoy enamorada de este lugar, es una mezcla de antiguo con moderno uno al lado del otro, por supuesto perfecto para jugar con las fotos. Les gusta el lugar? Cual lado prefieren, el antiguo o el moderno? Para este outfit estoy utilizando mi sombrero mas especial de todos. Yo compre este sombrero en Paris en una tienda de sombreros justo alfrente del Lourve, como eso no puede ser especial? Para completar mi momento, la persona que me lo vendio fue un señor mayor bien estiloso, por su puesto estilo francés, no se, me sentia en una Francia mas vieja en esa tienda, no la Francia 2009, ooh la la!

Bon week-end! 

By the way, I love french, to me it kinda has a mix of Spanish and English words. It was really funny to understand and follow a tv program like Jeopardy, my bestie and I actually got some answers right!  

I'm ready for you, Winter!

I've been constantly gearing up for this winter, cause I know is going to be a harsh one. Last year I lived in NJ, which yeah is cold, but not as much as where I'm leaving now. I know you're on your way Winter, but I am ready! Do you like my palette of sweaters? The blue metallic one is my favorite yet. 

Ultimamente me he estado preparando para el invierno porque se que va a ser uno fuerte. El año pasado yo vivía en NJ, lo cual es bastante frío sí, pero no tanto como donde vivo ahora mismo. Se que estas de camino invierno, pero yo estoy lista! Les gusta mi palette de suéteres (lo se, esa palabra suena horrible, pero es la correcta)? Hasta ahora mi favorito es el azul metálico.

I've found a friend!!!

Last week we had really really cold temperatures, and today our high was 60 ℉. Well ain't that sweet?! So, I definitely needed to take advantage of this, and I went out with bare legs, well lest just say half bare legs. I've had this "I've found a friend!!!" sweater since I lived in Puerto Rico, but of course I really didn't used it much, basically for traveling to cold places, that's why it looks like new. This sweater actually brings me really good memories, so here is the story. I actually bought it first in red for a friend's birthday, but it was too cute and I had to get it for me. Like a week later we were both going to a scientific conference, in which (here is the funny thing) one morning we meet up in the hotel lobby and we were both wearing the sweater, oh yeah, and also the same boots, absolutely not planned at all. People couldn't believe we didn't plan anything. We looked really funny, but we didn't care, we were actually ok with it!

Good times, good friends!

Happy Tuesday!
