The red dress dilemma

Christmas is near, and I need a dress. But not any dress, it must follow these rules:

1. Must be red (99% of the dresses I have are black)
2. Must be original

I found this beautiful dress at Zara, and it's 90€. I don't know if buying a dress that I will probably see a lot of people wearing is worth it. I've fallen in love with it and I need to give it a thought. I need your opinion.




Should I buy it?
Yes
No

Round glasses, current obsession



Round glasses are one of the most difficult accesories to wear. They don't look good on every shape, they can make you look like a hippie or a clown. If you are one of the few lucky people that can pull off these fabulous glasses, go ahead! :)

This kind of shape adds a lot of personality to an outfit. They are risky, and original. Here you have some examples. What do you think? Yay or nay? I love them, but I'm not brave enough to buy a pair yet...
---------------

Las gafas redondas son uno de los complementos más difíciles de llevar. No sientan bien a todos, y sin querer se puede parecer un hippie o un payaso. Si eres una de las pocas personas a las que les quedan bien estas gafas tan geniales, ¡adelante!

Este tipo de silueta dan mucha personalidad a un outfit. Son arriesgadas, y originales. Os propongo aquí varios ejemplos. ¿Qué opináis? ¿Sí o no? Personalmente, me encantan, pero aún no me atrevo a comprarme unas...

Chanel Spring/Summer 2011 Presentation: My favourites

chanel

As every season, here you have the pictures of the Chanel presentation in Madrid. This time, the collection was Spring/Summer 2011 (the one with the giant lion). By the way, there was a lion because Gabrielle Chanel was a Leo.
I took pictures of many details, such as the tiny insects decorating the handbags and bracelets, the lions on the shoes, the leaf-necklace...

They had made this wall in which you could have your picture taken and it looked like you were a front rower at Chanel ;)

Wingardium Leviosa! The wizard glasses


Oliver Peoples


I'll be watching the new Harry Potter film (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I) tomorrow. I don't know if it's going to be a good movie, but it's become a tradition. I HAVE to watch it, and that's all.

The Harry Potter books are one of my favourites, and I think I've already talked about that (there's a post about "The Erised Mirror", and my guesses for the Deathly Hallows book -all wrong, by the way-).

Today I'm showing you some glasses categorized as "the wizard glasses". Now you just need a scar on the forehead, two brave and loyal friends, a wand, a death enemy, and of course, magic powers.
