Liu Jo cocktail






El pasado viernes tuve la oportunidad de asistir al cocktail que Liu Jo organizó con motivo de la presentación de la nueva colección P/V 2013. Colores pastel y tonos intensos (azul klein, verde esmeralda, amarillo intenso) componen una colección muy femenina, romántica e ideal para mujeres que saben apreciar la calidad y el diseño.



En el evento tuve la suerte de conocer a las “Elis” del exquisito blog Lost in Vogue (quienes tuvieron el detalle de enviarme la invitación). Me encanta su trabajo y sigo su blog desde hace tiempo. Si os gusta la calidad y el trabajo bien hecho, ¡¡no dejéis de visitarlo!! 



Para la ocasión escogí un look "color block con una base de azul eléctrico y detalles en blanco. 

 ¿Qué os parece?

¡Feliz martes!



Fashion tip: Vestir de un sólo color estiliza mucho nuestra figura... ¡Y como podéis comprobar no tiene porque ser sólo una base en negro!

Last Friday I had the chance to attend the cocktail organised by Liu Jo in order to present the S/S 2013 collection. Pastel colours and intense tones (royal blue, emerald green, intense yellow) are the colours present in a very feminine, romantic and high quality collection ideal for women who really appreciate good quality and design.



During the event I had the pleasure to met the “Elis” (Elis S. and Eli G.) from the exquisite blog Lost in Vogue. I love their work and started to follow it long ago. If you like the quality and the good work you can't miss it!!



For the occasion I chose a colour block look with a royal blue base and white accessories.



What do you think?

Happy Tuesday ladies!



Fashion tip: Dressing in one colour makes our figure look longer and thinner… And it not only happens with black!!

New beauties from London


 

Empezamos la semana con un post en el que os enseño las cositas que me he comprado en Londres. Si habéis estado allí ¡¡seguro que sabréis lo difícil que es no caer en la tentación de volverse loca y quemar la tarjeta de crédito!! Jajajajajaja...


Lo cierto es que yo estoy contenta con mis adquisiciones y espero poder enseñároslas poco a poco en el blog. 


¡Feliz inicio de semana chicas!


PD: Por motivos personales he tenido que volver a Barcelona ¡aunque espero regresar pronto a Londres! xoxo

We start the week with a post showing you my London purchases. If you’ve been in London I’m sure you know how difficult is not to become crazy and burn your credit card!! Hahahahaha…

To be honest I'm very happy with my purchases and I expect to show you everything on the blog soon.

Happy beginning of the week!!

PS: For personal reasons I'm in Barcelona again, though I expect to come bak to London soon!! xoxo
