PINK

Pink blazer from ZARA

Ok so I'll tell you the story of The Pink ZARA Blazer. A couple of weeks ago I went shopping and came across this beautiful pink blazer, I wasn't quite sure wheter I liked it or not at the moment, as the days passed I found myself thinking of that gorgeous and nicely constructed blazer hanging on said rack of ZARA, lusting after it and convincing myself that I really loved it and indeed needed it in my closet, or else my life wouldn't feel complete (I know dramatic as a McQueen fashion show) So after a couple of weeks dreaming of it, I went shopping again, adamant as hell to buy it. On my way to the store, I could feel the excitment growing in me, my palms sweaty, I felt I couldn't walk fast enough, when I finally got to the store, I walked in, to the very end of it to where I knew was the object of my affection, there, between numerous other not as pretty blazers, were only 3 pink ones, only one in my size, at that moment doubt hit me, did I really want it? need it? I walked out of the store, thinking that maybe among all the other boutiques I could fin something else that caught my attention, my bad, after an hour or so wandering around the mall (even going back to ZARA a couple of time, I swear the security guard gave a funny look a couple of times), I decided that the pink blazer was what was missing in my heart, and in my closet at the moment, I tried it on a couple of times, twirled around on it in front of the mirror, and bought it. After I left the store happiness overwhelmed me, I felt this rush, I don't know if that's how drugaddicts feel after they've done their drug of choice, but what I do know is that it made ME feel wonderful, I was so happy, couldn't believe that this baby was finally mine. After I left the mall in total extasis (even skipped my usual shaken lemon tea at Starbucks) I decided to walk back home (it's pretty near y'know) and as I walked I kept thinking, what would I wear my new baby with? I kept styling it over and over again in my mind with half of my closet, and each outfit I liked it even more, then I couldn't help to think, am I the only one who does this? who feels this way when finally getting some piece of clothing you've been lusting after for a while? Do all women/fashion conscious people style their latest accquisitions in their mind over and over again? What is it about going shopping that can make us feel so good about ourselves? A while a go a friend of my mother asked me what was with us women and shopping? I explained that feeling I get when I go shopping to her, she later told me she had never felt that rush, that excitement going into a boutique, the pleasure of going into a store, that, I'd never change, probably that's why I very rarely (almost never) shop on the internet, it doesn't feel the same, does anyone else get what I mean? has any of you lovely readers ever felt that way about shopping, and if you have, would you mind explaining it to me? I wanna read all of these experiences and maybe I can get a better understanding of this thing, also does it work as well for online shopping? C'mon share your thoughts on this and tell me I'm not crazy!!

STYLE HUNTING PARTY



Last night was Someone's Boyfriend STYLE HUNTING PARTY, plus it was Eduardo's birthday, at a club downtown called DISTRICT, which I'd never been to, it was pretty nice actually, I went with my friends Ana and Estefanie (MTG's owner) we had a pretty good time with some mojitos and beers and nice music and everyone else was dressed nicely, I like it when people put some effort into their outfit, because like Vivienne Westwood once said "You have a better life if you wear impressive clothes." Oh and I'm totally in love with the MANCANDY pants on the 9th picture. 

So, how was your weekend kiddos?

This summer's been the weirdest of all, I've been oversleeping, cooking, barely going out though.. I've been reading Sara Shepard's PLL saga, and I must say I'm in love hahaha, I've also done some shopping, but nothing big, I'll post pictures of my latest finds ASAP next weeken I've been invited to the STYLE HUNTING PARTY at district club, so I'm attending with Ana (another local fellow blogger) and Estefanie, owner of muchotugusto Showroom. I've also rearranged my closet, getting rid of old stuff to make space for new, I believe life works the same way, you have to let go of old stuff, people, situations, etc. to make space for some new and better things to come. Summer's always been one of my favourite times of the year, but this one hasn't felt right, I don't know why, I've always thought that the worse the summer the better will be the autumn, why? well you can't have so many good times all over year, otherwise you wouldn't realize when it's the best time you've had in a while. I'm also loving this summer rain. What do you love or hate about summer?
