OUTFIT POST: MIXING THE OLD WITH THE NEW

A couple of years ago I bought this Gap denim vest at a flea market that a friend of mine organized here in Guatemala to raise funds for a local non-profit organization. It's pretty amazing the things that you'll find at a flea market if you have patience and you know how to dig in well. 

Yesterday I was invited to a little friendly gathering to say good bye to one of our really good friends who is moving away for a few months. I love gatherings because they are a great opportunity to dress up. I decided to wear my "second hand" Gap denim vest with my new Anthropologie dress, JCrew sandals, and statement necklace also from Anthropologie that I bought a few years ago. A very summery outfit perfect for my newfound girlieness. YES! I admit it! I'm girlie!

BUSTIERS, POLKA DOTS, AND MIXED PRINTS

Here's a preview of my bustier look. There's still a couple of things missing to keep the suspense going on and you still have to actually see it on me. Here both bustier and shorts are from Anthropologie (obvi), and the amazing statement necklace is from Chat'e. 

Don't be afraid of getting wild and crazy with prints!!! I say go for it. Worst case scenario you end up looking like a member of Cirque de Soleil.

Sometimes something as simple as the right statement necklace makes all the difference in the world.

PERFECT SUMMER NECKLACE

If you follow me on Twitter and Facebook you probably already noticed how obsessed I am with Pinterest (like the rest of the whole world), that thing is highly addictive but it's the perfect place to find inspiration. Anyhow, today while I was "Pinteresting" I found this image and thought it was the perfect summer necklace, it's colorful, it's fun, it makes a statement and it's gorgeous, I totally visualize myself wearing it with a long maxi dress or tunic (I'm infatuated with tunics) and flat sandals somewhere where there are lots of palm trees hahahah I'm always visualizing myself where there's ocean and palm trees (and tropical drinks) somewhere where I don't have to wear too much clothes hahaha. 

¿How would you wear this necklace?

THE TRUE SPIRIT OF SUMMER CHIC

I have to say I really like this Joie outfit I found at ATELIER this week, it embodies the true spirit of summer dressing, it's feminine, flowy, comfortable, sexy and very colorful, it's truly a fantastic outfit, makes me wanna be in some really chic summer destination. If you're traveling someplace chic and hot this summer then an outfit like this could be the perfect option to bring with you. 

Wait till you see my next post. I found this wonderful purple turban to go with this outfit and It makes me look like a true Arabian queen lol! You're just gonna have to see it and let me know if it's true or not or if I'm just hallucinating.
