Feeling Violet

It wasn't until a few days ago that I realised that 2k14 is almost over, and as cliché as it sounds, time really flies by...with College finals, Christmas and New Years coming up, the excitement is just too much. As I write this, I'm getting that melancholic yet comforting feeling of December, which totally reminds me of the classic "Blue" by Bill Mack. However, I found time this week to shoot a little something. 

The blouse I'm wearing is by DearOne (lovely local shop). A blouse that goes by the name of Pure White Print - how pretty the name is though - in shades of violet, hence the name of my look. I'm trying to find the coolest words to describe the awesomeness of this blouse...the feel to it, the print, the lightness of it, the colors...it's safe to say that it was kind of love at first sight.

I paired this with some black high waisted jeans, my favourite black ankle boots and some lovely quasi-rounded shades.

Hola! Aquí volviendo a esto de postear looks (o más bien despegándome de mis "lazy days").

Últimamente un aire repentino de motivación me ha llegado, justamente por todo lo que alejarse del colegio y/o graduarse del mismo significa: fresh new air. 

Es por eso que he decidido empezar ésta serie de looks de "verano", la cual irá de la mano con mi summer playlist '14, con este look al que he llamado Just A Hideaway (obviamente extraído de la cancion de Kiesza).

Hello! So, here I am with another comeback (yet again!), trying to stay away from the lazy-days. A sudden breeze of motivation has come to me because of the fact that school is over, for good...graduation is coming, therefore I can finally have some fresh new air. That's why Ive decided to start these series of summer looks, which will go hand-in-hand with my summer playlist, with this look that I like to call Just A Hideaway (from the song by Kiesza). 

How Soon Is Now

Back to basics black.

Temperatures aren't particularly warm these days in Quito, su unfortunately an umbrella and a warm scarf are essential. Admittedly, I wanted to show the lovely world map wall poster I got on a shoot, so here it goes. Also, I can't seem to find the excuse to NOT wear my hat, which I've been using practically everytime I go out (not school obviously).  Moreover, I wanted to put a whole black outfit together but my heart belongs to those army green skinny trousers from Pull & Bear, so the "all black everything" thing isn´t going on in this look. Finally I managed to wear this vintage black chiffon blazer that was formerly from my mom, haha, with a floral print sweatshirt beneath that balanced the whole look. On a side note: The Smiths is pretty much everything I've been listening to lately, (hence the title). 

La temperatura no está tan cálida especialmente en estos días en Quito, así que por desgracia un paraguas y una bufanda caliente son esenciales. Es cierto, yo quería mostrar el póster del mapamundi que mandé a hacer para mi pared, así que aquí va. Además, me parece que no puede encontrar la excusa para no usar mi sombrero, que he estado usando prácticamente cada vez que salgo (no la escuela, evidentemente). Por otra parte, yo quería ponerme todo un outfit negro , pero mi corazón pertenece a los army green skinny jeans de Pull & Bear, así que la cosa "all black everything" no estará por ahora. Finalmente logré llevar esta chaqueta vintage de gasa negro que fue anteriormente de mi mamá, jaja, con una sudadera con estampado floral debajo, la cual da el balance perfecto a éste look. En una nota lateral: The Smiths es todo lo que he estado escuchando últimamente, (He ahí el título).
