New In – Stars and bows

Bow clutch

When I first saw the Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2011 collection, where many pieces, like this one, appeared with stars all over, I wasn’t sure that was something I would wear, but I think I found a great piece. Meet my new top:

Seriously in love with these two Acne jumpers! And the colour is a must-have for the next season. WANTED!

Happy Birthday Sequin Gown!!!

Today is the second anniversary of the blog. I’m really happy and proud, at the same time.

When I wrote my first post, two years ago, I was not sure I would be able to keep it for so long. One year ago, when I got my first real job, I thought it would be impossible to keep it. Well, the blog is still here and it keeps being one of the most important things in my every day. It is a pleasure to share my opinions and thoughts with you, so a big thank you for visiting!

*I believe you have already noticed the difference on the look, I hope you like it! It is very user friendly: all the links that used to be on the sidebar are now at the bottom.

THANK YOU!

Yesterday, I was featured in a blog of a photographer and cool hunter from Braga (the city I live in). He is the blogger behind “O Estilista Bracarense“. The post was named “Details series – The Carina’s bow ring”. Take a look at the blog, I bet you are going to love it!

Mulberry Spring/Summer 2012 ad campaign

Sequin Gown — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 21:13:33 +0000

Summer, ice creams, candies and fun: these are the ingredients to a good advertising campaign.

This is the Mulberry spring/summer 2012 ad campaign, shot by Tim Walker. The photographer has worked with the brand the past seasons and I think no one could do better. He’s been helping the designer to change the image of the brand and presenting a more youthful and fresh Mulberry. Even the models were chosen accordingly, Lindsey Wixson and Frida Gustavsson are face and body of this campaign.

Way to go, Mulberry!

Object of Desire – Bottega Veneta Resort 2012 dress

Bottega Veneta Resort 2012

I saw the model Julia Stegner wearing this dress in an illustration on an article about Bottega Veneta‘s designer Tomas Maier in Elle Portugal, and I felt in love with it. Love the combo of colours, the dress is perfect for summer. Fluid, colorful and light, as every summer dress should be.
