Latest buys


Yes, I finally went shopping. I bought some shoes, two jackets and a t-shirt. Well, I bought all those things on the internet except for the shoes and one of the jackets. Oh, and there's also a very beautiful dress I'd like to show you. Let's begin:

Sí, por fin fui de compras. Me compré unos zapatos, dos chaquetas y una camiseta. Bueno, todas esas cosas las compré por internet, a excepción de los zapatos y una de las chaquetas. Ah, y también me han regalado un vestido precioso. Os cuento:


The jacket
I had been searching for a jacket like this since I saw Caroline B wearing it. Then Ariadna from Fashionisima posted where to get the look. I immediately visited the Forever 21 website and bought a very similar one. It was $34.80 (plus shipping costs). Now it is sold out. I must admit that when I bought it I kind of regretted it. I thought it had been a rash shopping. But then, some days later, the jacket arrived and I saw that it had been a good buy. It was even better than how it looked on the photo. It is extremely warm and the "fur" (cotton fur) is incredibly soft.

Había estado buscando esta chaqueta desde que vi a Caroline B llevándola. Entonces Ariadna de Fashionisima publicó un post donde explicaba dónde conseguirla. Enseguida me metí en la página de Forever 21 y compré una muy parecida. Me costó unos 25€, pero con los gastos de envío subió bastante. Ahora está agotada. Debo admitir que unos días después de haberla comprado me arrepentí un poco, me parecía que había sido un poco precipitado. Sin embargo, cuando llegó la cazadora unos días después, vi que había sido una buena compra. Era incluso más bonita que en la foto. Es súper abrigadita y el pelo de borreguito (de algodón) es increíblemente suave.

The dress

I like lace but in little details. Like vests, little dresses, shirts... I was inspired by Abbey Lee and Iekeliene Stange. Alexia Admor sent me this beautiful dress that I can't wait to wear (it's so cold outside).

Me gusta el tejido de encaje y bordado en pequeños detalles. Chalecos, vestiditos, camisas... Me encanta cómo lo llevan Abbey Lee y Iekeliene Stange. Alexia Admor me envió este vestido. No puedo esperar a poneŕmelo (hace muchísimo frío).

(picture soon)


The fabric is so beautiful.

A t-shirt
The drawing is a Banksy graffiti. It's sort of cute, even if he usually draws rats and policemen /// El dibujo es de un graffiti de Banksy. Es muy mona, eso que él normalmente dibuja ratas y policías.

You can buy it here (there are not available at the moment, but maybe they'll put more in stock)

Another jacket
I bought it in H&M some weeks ago and it's a staple in my wardrobe. The fabric looks like neoprene (thanks Prada for re-introducing the surfer look) but it's cotton /// Me compré esta chaqueta en H&M hace unas semanas y la verdad es que me encanta. La tela parece neopreno (gracias Prada por re-introducir el look surfero) pero es de algodón.


Harper's Bazaar Spain, out in a few days! Yeah!

Mango Spring/Summer 2010: the fashion show!

mango, missatlaplaya

I had never been to a Mango fashion show before, and when I received the invite for the show that was going to take place on Wednesday 11th in Madrid I got very happy because I've always wanted to go to a fashion show that wasn't "by a designer", I mean, when the collections are made by a certain person for their own brand. The philosophy of the brand is totally different if it is a high-street label, and well, I know that I'll probably buy some outfits from the collection when they get to the shops.

I really liked the collection, much more than I had expected. A lot of denim, all sorts of trench coats, paillettes, lace dresses... I'd wear almost everything, except maybe for the jumpsuits. The bad thing as that most of the outfits won't be seen in the shops.

Ariadna, Laia and I took photos at the photocall, it was fun, but it took so much time (almost an hour and a half!) and it was very tiring at the end. I'll upload the photocall photos tomorrow.

The casting was amazing: Snejana Onopka (great), Kasia Struss, Iekeliene Stange, Alyona Osmanova, Jon Kortajarena, Marta Español, Amparo Bonmatí... A very good choice of models. The make-up and the hairstyles fitted them so well.


---------------------------------

Nunca antes había ido a un desfile de Mango, y cuando me llegó la invitación para el desfile del Miércoles 11 de Noviembre en Madrid me alegré mucho porque siempre he querido ir a un desfile fuera de "ropa de diseñador", es decir, colecciones que las hacen diseñadores para su propia marca. La filosofía de la marca es totalmente distinta cuando está destinada a tiendas de "precio asequible", y bueno, por primera vez sé que al menos me compraré algo de la colección cuando llegue a las tiendas.

La colección me gustó mucho, más de lo que esperaba. Mucho vaquero, estampado militar, trench en todas sus variantes, brillos, vestidos inspirados en el encaje... Me pondría casi todo, menos los monos vaqueros, es difícil que sienten bien. La pena es que luego la colección ni se verá en las tiendas, suele llegar la mitad de la mitad.

Ariadna, Laia y yo estuvimos haciendo fotos en el photocall, estuvo divertido aunque se hizo un poco largo (duró como una hora y media!). Mañana os pongo las fotos del photocall.

El casting era muy bueno: Snejana Onopka (increíble en la pasarela), Kasia Struss, Iekeliene Stange, Alyona Osmanova, Jon Kortajarena, Marta Español, Amparo Bonmatí... Una elección de modelos fantástica. El maquillaje y el peinado les favorecía mucho también.

Dree Hemingway attended the fashion show as a guest and not as a model, and Tommy Ton (Jak & Jil) was with her too. The whole outfit is from Mango.

This trench was a "copy" of the Burberry S/S 09 one... well, Mango, I can forgive you because it means that I'll be able to buy it without spending an extraordinary sum of money. /// Este trench era una "copia" de Burberry P/V 09... bueno, te perdono Mango, porque eso significa que me lo podré comprar por un precio mucho más razonable.

Sleeveless trench! It's perfect for those who spend summer in the north.
