If you remember my “Summer 2014 sandals” entry you will see how I shared my wishlist of favorite footwear for this season. My number from the list was this pair by A.P.C the “Roma” sandals.
Last year A.P.C released a previous version of this sandal exactly the same style but in a different material (suede) with perforated leather in different colors (navy, burgundy and mustard yellow). I wanted the burgundy pair badly and I did not buy they right away and they sold out. This year I was the happiest girl when they re-released the same style in smooth leather and in black!
While in Paris this winter I almost buy them but I was not feeling the sandal call just yet, and was more into footwear I could wear right away. Well again my size sold out everywhere…but stalking all the online retailers that sold them last week I was lucky enough to have find them on sale 50% off, only pair left…my size! I snapped them right away, and this morning they arrived. I’m so happy with this purchase, so expect to see many summer outfits of me wearing them.
If you like me love this pair you can get them at:
– APC website 35, 41
– SHOPBOP 35,37,39
– STEVEN ALAN 39,40
– LA GARÇONNE 40
Last week as you might have noticed I did not update my blog for a few days, that was because I was in Stockholm visiting my friend Omar that currently lives there. I went for Midsummer, I had no idea about that celebration/tradition and neither had he, and it was the most awesome experience! The big plus too were the Midsummer sales, I can’t deny that.
I had only visited Stockholm once before nine years ago, and it was an express visit so I did not remember the whole of the city and this trip refreshed my memory on the beauty and awesomeness of this amazing city. Last time I visited it was late August and I remember great temperature, not the case now, the difference at this time of the year is around 15ºC from our weather here in Spain. Crazy! I felt I was in late winter or early spring so as you will see the next few outfit posts will be nothing summery, and maybe not much of an inspiration right now, but more suitable for my followers on cold weather, like you guys down on the Southern Hemisphere.
I know we are officially in summer but I labeled them as spring as they were taken under that season.

It’s so hot right now, going out in anything but shorts and sandals seems unbearable! Today i’m wearing one of my very old A.P.C shirts. Probably from 2011 or 2012, but I just love it, the shape is just perfect! It’s so hard to find a wider but shorter classic shirt, I find they make them extremely long and in my opinion that is not very flattering, it shortens the figure. The best part of this shirt though is the color, a mix of blue and purple, something like a dark lavender maybe? I’m not sure how to classify it, I think it really depends on the light, but I just love it!
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban sunglasses (get them HERE), A.P.C shirt, Wood Wood shorts and Salt Water sandals that you can get HERE. Handbag is Louis Vuitton.
I decided to start doing a few new things in my blog. One of them is the one garment, three ways (or four: one for each season). Also I came up with the idea of making a summary of my staples, how I wear them and where you can get similar items. Since the weather has been so hot lately, lets start with something you can wear all year long, but that I have been wearing a lot in hot days.
So for today: how I wear my LBD Little Black Dress in hot weather.
1.- I styled my white collar LBD by Sandro with black Chanel flats and my Chanel flap again. For a similar dress I found this one by Boutique by Jaeger that you can SHOP HERE.
2.- I styled my skater LBD by The Kooples with beige Chanel flats and my Chanel flap. For a similar dress this one by Free People is quite close and you can GET IT HERE.
3.- I styled my knee length LBD by Gap with Robert Clergerie heels and yet again my Chanel flap. I found an almost identical dress by Topshop that you can SHOP HERE and a classic pair of heels for a fraction of the price by Topshop too. GET THEM HERE.
For a black chain bag in the line of my Chanel check this bag by Whistles, it’s gorgeous at a much much lower price. SHOP IT HERE.
