Three S's

Sunshine, shopping and studying (I know, the last one's rather disappointing...I guess could'v also used sunglasses, Spanish tourists or spaghetti, but that paints a more realistic picture).

Lots of Zara for me today: top from Zara (originally a blouse from like a year or two back. It got so much wear and tear that I thought I'd have to throw it away, but I couldn't. Soooo, I chopped off the sleeves!), black velvet shorts from Zara as well. 

This piece of gorgeousness arrived yesterday from ASOS. Whopee! I also figured out that my ears are, in fact, rather gargantuan , which gives a bit of a squished effect. Not that it's gonna stop me from wearing them, of course!

I bought this lovely hat (among quuuuite a few other things...oops.) at the first fleamarket from a lovely old woman (2,5 euros!). Land ahoy!

The second fleamarket (Hietsu) is the perfect setting for some summer shopping. Unfortunately this picture might misrepresent it, because this old guy came to harass me about my camera before I got a good shot...

Because I have a (really) bad habit of hiding my bag in outfit shots here's one of today's bag. H&M, borrowed from my sister :)

I think studying for my history matriculations has temporarily made me more pensive than I should be in the summer. And I've been thinking about why it is that I even write this blog.
Without getting too philosophical... I think that what they say is so true: girls dress to impress girls. I mean pretty much everybody who reads fashion blogs, participates in them and has one,  is a girl. But while I always aim to impress anyone who might end up on this (slightly pitiful) blog, I like to think that I dress and write to express myself. However, I can't help feeling a twinge of jealousy whenever I read a blog that's obviously better than mine (or see a really out-there outfit I wish I'd had the guts to wear!). So I guess the sad truth is that I'm here, I'm me and I really want you to love it. That's all.

I'd just like to thank all my readers (cough cough, there's six) for putting up with me (even through this post). 

Love you!

And it's warm again!

Summer's back after a few weeks of  ridiculously  chilly weather!

 Today I'm heading for town for a history study-date at a café (I have my matriculations coming up in the autumn, so I have to get cracking). I might let myself take a peek at the sales, but I'm going "officially" tomorrow with my trusty shopping sidekick.

 I have been dog sitting for almost two weeks now, and as sweet as the puppy is it makes a HUGE mess everywhere and howls like I've never heard before...so I'll be more than happy to return it on Thursday.

Here's my outfit inspired by yesterdays research: 

Maxi dress thrifted (only 20 effing cents! Definately one of my better finds) I'm thinking of shortening it after a few wears to make it more versatile (gotta make the most of those 20c), quite a bit of jewellery, my denim crop vest and my Giuseppe Zanotti ballerinas.

Ear cuff with a chain from an ethnic store here. Cost about 7euros.

Bracelet from Liberia and my new favourite nail polish. I love the peachy-beige with my skin tone. I just recently found it from the bottom of my nail polish container and I hate that the label had rubbed off so I can't tell where I could get more... If you know of brands with similar colours lemme know! :)
