Just Because

 Monday, August 30, 2010


On Saturday the boy and I had an special date without any particular reason, just because, those are the dates I love the most! :) We went to an amazing restaurant with fountains and great food --they even had a 'vintage menu'!--. The boy came to pick me up with a bunch of daisies (sigh), he makes me feel always so special :) For such a special occasion I wore my 'new' 50s vintage dress, a great choice for Madrid super hot nights... I can't wait for fall to arrive! :)




Shoes: Vialis
Bag: Vintage
All pics taken by J.S. except the one from the restaurant found in Google

My Dad's Fruit Trees!

 Saturday, August 28, 2010


Those pics are from last weekend, while visiting my family. My dad loves nature and he has a bunch of fruit trees, which it's great during summer when it's so hot and you can get a fresh fruit right from the tree! Apples, pears, peaches, plums, mulberrys, raspberrys... he has a bunch of fruit :) We even rescued a small bird from one of the trees, it was a great day.

Now I'm getting ready  for a special date I'm having tonight with the boy, wait for some pics beautiful pics next week! :)

Laugh

 Wednesday, August 25, 2010


"When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies."
— J.M. Barrie

"I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person."
— Audrey Hepburn
 
So laugh ladies! And have a great Wednesday!
 
P.S. These pics were taken by my mum, I met her this weekend, that may be the reason why I'm smiling that much! :) Oh, and the dress is a recent purchase of It's Bella etsy store, I love it!

Candy Girl

 Tuesday, August 17, 2010


Sugar, ah honey honey
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you
Honey, ah sugar sugar
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you

I know most of you are used to muffins, cupcakes, cookies and all that sweet stuff, but we don't usually have such things in Spain --we have different ones though--. So I was so excited about going to a new bakery that opened recently in the center of Madrid called Happy Day, it defenetely made my day! I'm returning soon for sure, I'm just a candy girl! :)

Heading for Barcelona!

 Friday, August 13, 2010



I'm visiting my brother this weekend. He lives in Barcelona, a wonderful city by the sea in northern Spain, I can't wait! Here I am packing, a bit stressful since I wanted to wear a pair of shorts and couldn't find any proper ones in my closet --you know, I've shopped all my life and still have nothing to wear, lol--. Then I came up with the best yet simpliest idea: I decided to cut my old pair of Levi's 501 jeans which don't fit me anymore and voilà, a nice perfect vintage pair of shorts! :)










Shorts: Levi's 501
Top: Topshop
Shoes: Mum's gift
