Look of the Day: The Blues

First day of March already!! Can you believe it? Time seems to fly by faster and faster every year, which it’s a scary thing for someone with slight time management issues. I am relieved it’s Friday though, because this week I’ve been suffering from a hormonal case of the blues and I’m definitely needing some down time.

And speaking of blue, today’s look of the day involves my blue dress (which you’ve seen before here) styled in a 50’s inspired way. An A-line dress paired with a cardigan screams 50’s, but to make it more modern I opted for my favorite neon necklace instead of the classic white pearls. As you may have noticed before, I’m not one to shy away from color and I’m really feeling this cobalt blue and neon yellow combination. I just added the gray elements to balance things out (gray may very well be my favorite neutral color).

How will you guys be spending your weekend? Whatever you are planning, I hope you have a great time!

Primer día de marzo ya!! Lo pueden creer? El tiempo parece volar más y más rápido cada año, lo cual es espantoso para alguien con pequeños problemas en la administración eficiente del tiempo. Claro que es un alivio que sea viernes, sobretodo porque esta semana he sufrido de un caso de blues hormonales, y me urgen unos días para descansar.

Y hablando de blue, el look del día de hoy incluye mi vestido azul (el cual ya habían visto antes aquí) en un outfit inspirado en los años 50’s. Un vestido con corte en A combinado con un suéter cardigan sí es muy de los 50’s, pero para modernizarlo opté por mi collar neón favorito en lugar del clásico de perlas blancas.  Como ya habrán notado, no soy de las que se esconde del color, y esta combinación de azul y amarillo neón realmente me agrada. Sólo agregué los elementos grises para dar un poco de balance (puede que el gris sea mi color neutro preferido).

Ustedes cómo piensan pasar su fin de semana? Sea lo que sea que están planeando, espero que se la pasen genial!

 

Look of the Day: New York State of Mind…

After seeing the damage left behind in New York by hurricane Sandy, I’ve found myself in a New York state of mind more than ever. It’s no secret that I love New York, and my thoughts and prayers go out to all who have been devastated by this disaster. And thinking of New York is that I decided to take pictures of this outfit. I had originally planned to wear this look in NY back in September, but the weather was too hot for it. Luckily the weather here in Arizona has finally cooled down, so it seemed like a good time to wear it.

This look it’s a bit business-y and serious, so I decided to spice it up a bit with some sexy platforms. What do you think? I hope you like it as much as I do.

Wishing you darlings a wonderful week!
