Four different ways of wearing one of my favorite garments: my black Gap midi dress.

Cuatro formas distintas de usar una de mis prendas favoritas: mi vestido negro de Gap.
I bet you never thought I would wear something pink, or even close to pink, and honestly I wouldn’t, this is I can assure you: an exception. Of all the colors in the rainbow pink and maybe orange are my least favorite, in other words I don’t like them at all. It doesn’t help how bad I look in them. I also have this thing with pink that I find it looks tacky on blondes, however even if I don’t like the color I do think it looks great in brunettes. I think it’s because it reminds me of Barbie, Paris Hilton and Jersey Shore, all synonyms of tackiness to the biggest extent.
Any how, this beautiful dress, was a gift I chose when I was given to choose between a few. It caught my attention because the subtle way pink shows in the gorgeous flower print, the navy mixed up sort of opaques the color make the dress sweet and sober. I don’t wear it much, but when I do it’s always mixed with flat footwear and dark colors. To me it works out this way.

Apuesto a que no se os ocurriría pensar que yo podría usar algo rosa, y la verdad es que no lo haría, os puedo asegurar que esto es una excepción. De todos los colores existentes el rosa y probablemente el naranja son los que menos me atraen o en otras palabras no me gustan nada. No ayuda lo mal que me sientan. También tengo este tema con el rosa que me parece bastante vulgar en rubias pero aunque no me gusta el color me parece que sienta estupendamente a morenas. Debe ser por el hecho que lo asocio a Barbie, Paris Hilton y Jersey Shore todas cosas sinónimos de la máxima vulgaridad existente.
De cualquier modo este precioso vestido fue un regalo, que escogí entre algunas opciones. Llamó mi atención la forma sutil en que el rosa se ve entre el estampado floral, el azul navy en la mezcla opaca el rosa y lo hace parecer dulce y sobrio. No lo uso mucho la verdad, pero cuando lo hago lo suelo combinar con calzado plano y colores oscuros, es mi forma de interpretar esta prenda.

Second summer outfit, and second time posting an outfit with this dress. It’s one of my striped dresses, one that sadly I can only wear on warmer months since it is very lightweight. I usually wear it to go to the pool or to the beach but sometimes I wear it for everyday. As any striped dress it can be paired with absolutely anything but today I chose one of my favorite pair of shoes. Chanel black flats.
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban sunglasses (Get them HERE), Filippa K striped dress, Chanel flats and bag.
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.
