A Retro Feel

This are some pictures my dear brother, Francisco, took of me during First Communion of my cousin Sofia. After the ceremony we had a delicous lunch. 

A couple of weeks ago, my parents were cleaning up their wardrobe and my mother found this dress which had been originaly made for my grandma. She and my mother wore it and now it was my turn. So I'm the third generation that's wearing it.
I decided to pair it with some simple pumps and with my Chanel inspired purse. The hair and make up were inspired by the gorgeous actress and pin-up model Veronica Lake. 
  






 

Here is a picture of Francisco.

Erin Fetherston Spring / Summer 2011

This are my favourite pieces of this collection. I find them very wearable, due to its classic shapes and colours with some details that give them a twist. Besides, those dresses are so cute.
Have you noticed the hats? They were made by Eugenia Kim. They are summer perfect and a great way of protecting our faces from the sun.

My Sweet Inspirations

This has been a crazy way of starting a week. And by the looks of it, it's not going to slowdown till Friday. I've got a paperwork that has to be send in today and this afternoon I'm going to my friend's house to prepare its presentation. Because I might have to present it next Thursday.
So I decided to do a post with some pictures I have in my computer. I hope you like my overload of pictures. I found them in blogs and in some sites that I don't recall.

A Flowery Sunday

Today I felt like wearing this skirt and because it has a very light fabric, when there's some wind, let's say I better not go outside or I'll show more of me than I'd like. So, since today I went to the mall in the morning and in the afternoon I stayed indoors it was a perfect day to wear it.
In the evening, when I went jogging with my parents, I put some shorts on and changed this shoes for some more appropriate trainers. I really needed to do some exercise after eating a Big Mac Menu and a piece of orange cake.
Did you guys enjoyed your weekend?

Even though I generally prefer musics with lyrics, this music is one of the exceptions. It's called "Going Home" and it's played by Mark Knopfler. This music is part of the film "Local Hero"'s soundtrack.
