November Highlights

H&M new collection items (i love this skirt more than words can express) / i bought the stargazer lilac lipstick ( it's a bit drying but still good for the price) / wearing my romwe velvet skirt everyday (stripes and denim being my favorite combination right now) / primark shoes (yes i know everyone has one of these by now but it took me like 6 months to find a pair that would fully cover my toes) / rain polish for a rainy day / trying a wig on primark to oblige my friend who's begging me to dye my hair platinum

Late Summer in pictures

 I've been quite absent lately but the summer is almost over and i will get right on track pretty soon!
Meanwhile enjoy my last fashion/beauty related adventures in a quite messy photo montage! #excitement

still rockin' the tropicana trend with this old h&m dress // close up to my new spike necklace - gift from a friend // new lush goodies - karma bubble bar, oatfix mask (love!) and a figs and leaves soap sample // zara and pull & bear sale results // bershka new spiked shoes // primark vanilla pod candle - amazing scent // tried retro curls to compliment my red dress :) // all the nail polishes i used // to paint these space nails for the 100th time // primark stuff - owl crop top, cross necklace, basic tights // MIYO golden eyeshadow - decided to give this brand a try. It's cheap and the quality isn't half bad! (warning: a bit of fall out when applying) // new bikini from oshyo // detail: cream with neon yellow palm trees. super cute!

Studded feet

I'm really loving the idea of a classic shoe silhouette like a loafer/slipper with the edginess of the studs. The 1st ones that i spotted were the very famous VECTRA3 from topshop. Sadly because we don't have this store in Portugal I couldn't get them (I'm not to keen on buying shoes online because my size varies a lot).

Eu adoro a ideia de um sapato clássico tipo mocassin/sapatilha com a irreverência das tachas. Os primeiros que encontrei foram os famosos VECTRA3 da topshop. Infelizmente porque não temos essa loja em Portugal não consegui compra-los (não gosto muito de comprar sapatos online porque o meu numero varia imenso).

topshop VECTRA3

Recently I found these beauties in Zara. They look sort of like dupes of the VECTRA3 the studs are more subtle and instead of leather they're made of polyester . They also come in black and nude like the VECTRA though. They cost 25,95€ which makes them cheaper ha!

Recentemente encontrei estas belezas na Zara. São uma alternativa bastante semelhante aos VECTRA3, as tachas são mais subtis e em vez de cabedal são feitos de poliéster. Também vêm em preto e nude como os VECTRA e custam 25,95€ o que os torna mais baratos ha!

These below are my favourites. I like that the skulls are so dainty that you need to be very close to see them so it's like a pair of classy loafers with a fun twist. I know a lot of people find skulls tacky but i really like them when they're well styled with an outfit. I tried them on the store and they fit very well and the velvety material is very nice. I don't usually trust Bershka's quality but i was very impressed by these. Way better then some H&M shoes i've seen.

Estes são os meus favoritos. Eu gosto que os detalhes das caveiras sejam tão delicados que é preciso estar muito próximo do sapato para as ver bem. Por isso funcionam como um par de loafers com um pormenor interessante. Eu sei que muitas pessoas acham caveiras pirosas mas eu gosto imenso delas quando são usadas com bom gosto num outfit. Eu normalmente não confio na qualidade da Bershka mas fiquei bastante impressionada com estes sapatos. Muito melhores que alguns da H&M que já vi.
