Fave new item: nude sandals
Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 9:05 am | In beauty+fashion, shopping | Leave a CommentI love shoes, but I’m not much one for trendy ones, usually. Most of the time, I’m wearing my white (and dirty) converse shoes or some cute flat. I do own some great high heels, but it’s just more comfy to walk around in tennis shoes all day, I guess.
Anyway, as much as I love being comfortable, I just couldn’t help myself when I saw this pair of nude sandals on Santa Lolla. So I tried them on and, surprise! They are not only amazingly beautiful, they are also very much comfortable. And they are a size 34, what makes my feet look even smaller.

Below, a combination of this wonderful sandals with my weird pants. They were actually, I recall, supposed to be bermuda shorts, but I’m so little they go a few inches past my knees. I love ‘em to death but still cannnot figure ‘em out. They’re jeans and kind of a mixture of bloomers, three quarter pants and something else entirely. I guess they’re not the most flattering shape for me but I truly fell in love when I saw them and couldn’t help but buying it.

ps: hiding the face because i have this huge pimple just over my mouth. there’s no way to not see it, ugh.
Cute alert: Wing & Wendy store

I just found this absolutely adorable store over at Etsy, Wing and Wendy. It belongs to sisters that share a passion for fashion and, oh my, it offers some serious cuteness in form of necklaces and rings like the ones below. I don’t really know how I came to find it, but I’m sure it was through one of my hundreds of links. Anyway, I fell in love with a few items, specially the ones with bows. I’ve been quite addicted to bows lately and even bought some pretty items with all kinds of bows on ‘em. None of them as beautiful as that Chanel inspired necklace, that also has one other of my current passions: pearls. If you like this two items, be sure to check up their store, as you’ll definitely find a lot more lovable items.

The yellow bag/clutch

I had work to do this week, so I couldn’t really do anything else. Today, though, I had to put everything o hols for a couple hours to go find a sort of swimming robe for my aunt. I guess the word makes no sense at all, but I just don’t know how to call it in English. It is something you put over your swimming suit, you know? Well, I did go and get a very cute one and, in the process, got myself a little purse. It is definitely cute and sort of shiny (I mean, it’s bright yellow, it kinda shines) and I’m in love with it! Ain’t it cute?
A special gift guide

Thimble’s has this great holiday gift guide up on their site. Even though the entire list consists of goodEGG (their own shop) products, the ideas are definitely worth having a good look at. The products are very beautiful, but I’d have to have ordered them quite a few weeks ago in order to have everything here by now. So, it does not work for me in that way, but it is surely a source of inspiration if you’re still looking for that perfect gift for your vintage-lover friend, say.
Pra lá de original

Quem me conhece sabe que eu não sou de ousar nas roupinhas. O caso não chega a ser não gostar de usar coisas diferentes, mas, sim, achar que eu combino mesmo é com uns trajes mais básicos. Por isso mesmo, adoro um acessório. Cintos coloridos, brincão, charm bracelets espalhafatosos e colares cheios de pingentes são os mais usados pra conferir mais graça ao look nosso de cada dia. Por isso, AMEI descobrir a A.N. Original Jewelry. Mais uma vez, não lembro de onde surgiu esse link o que é ligeiramente compreensível. Fuço tanto nos sites e nos links de cada blog que visito, que, se não anotar, é certeza que eu esqueço.
Bom, todas as peças da A.N. Original Jewelry são feitas pela americana Ashley Nizolek em ouro, prata e pedras semipreciosas, entre outros materiais. Achei tudo bem bonito, mas os itens que ganharam minha atenção e amor eterno foram esses colarzinhos pra lá de graciosos que você vê abaixo. Fala sério se não é a coisa mais fofa ever! Dei uma xeretada no site pra tentar descobrir se ela manda pra fora do país (o dela, claro), mas não vi nada. Como ela aceita pagamento com cartão de crédito (Amex e Visa, por exemplo) e produz cada peça por encomenda, acho que deve rolar o envio pra cá. Bem quero várias das coisinhas que ela faz!

Earlier this week, I went a-shopping for buttons. That’s right, buttons! I wanted to make the earrings I wrote about a few days ago,
