Sunny Day

EN

Hello!! Summer is almost ending and it´s time to show my last summer outfits. I've been so busy that I had not time to post. I went to the beach, to the pool, cinema, shopping, concerts .....This time I want to show you a little of my walk in the city with my daughter. We went to Parque das Nações, the modern part of Lisbon, on a sunny day, to have a picnic in the gardens :) ....and take some awesome pictures. This is a great place to enjoy nature and also contemporary architecture.

I left the heels at home because we have to walk. I am wearing a high waist shorts from New Yorker and a green top from Stradivarius.

And my little girl is wearing also a high waist shorts in pink and a wavy crop top, both from Bershka. She likes fashion so much as I do, so I think she is gonna be featuring some of my future posts.

Olá !! O verão está quase a acabar e é hora de mostrar os meus últimos outfits de verão. Tenho andado tão ocupada que nem tive tempo de postar. Fui para a praia, para a piscina, cinema, lojas, concertos ..... 

Desta vez quero mostrar um pouco da minha caminhada na cidade com a minha filha. Fomos ao Parque das Nações, a parte moderna de Lisboa, num dia ensolarado, fazer um piquenique nos jardins :) .... e tirar algumas fotos para o blog. Este é um ótimo lugar para apreciar a natureza e também a arquitetura contemporânea. 

Deixei os saltos em casa, porque tínhamos de andar a pé. Eu usei uns calções de cintura subida da New Yorker e um top verde da Stradivarius. 

E a minha menina usou também uns calções de cintura subida em cor de rosa e um crop top ondulado, ambos da Bershka. Ela gosta de moda tanto quanto eu, por isso eu acho que ela vai protagonizar alguns dos meus posts futuros.

I need a Retro Bikini

I am almost on vacation ( finally :)....and now it´s my time to go to the beach.

I realized that I need a retro bikini this year to have a glamorous style on the sand. 

Hope you like my choices! Have a nice summer!!

Pink lady

Hello!! I am back again.

I´ve been too busy and I didn´t had time to my blog. Today I am wearing a pleated skirt that I found in Pinkie store. I love it because it has a great shape, and I feel elegant and charming. 

Hope you like it too.

PT

Olá !! Estou de volta novamente.

Tenho andado muito ocupada e não tenho tido tempo para o meu blog. Hoje estou a usar uma saia plissada que encontrei na loja Pinkie. Adoro esta saia, faz me sentir elegante e charmosa. 

Espero que gostem também.

Stripes

EN

Hello...I love my little striped skirt. It makes me feel like a doll :) Black-and-white stripes look amazing with denim but also with many other colors, so I am excited to wear it again on another outfits.

PT

Olá.....Eu adoro a minha pequena saia de riscas. Faz-me sentir como uma boneca :) As riscas preto e branco ficam fantásticas com camisas de ganga, mas também combinam com muitas outras cores, por isso estou ansiosa por usar outra vez a saia noutros looks.

xoxo, Joana

African Prints ZARA 2014

The new Spring collection of Zara is simply fantastic, because of the variety of colors, textures and patterns. But what caught my attention in this collection was the presence of African prints. 

It has some time that traditional African clothing has been a presence in fashion, but the fact is that it is still very difficult to access this type of clothing in stores, so you need to buy the fabric and ask some seamstress to make the clothes you want. So I love the fact that now I can buy these pieces at Zara. I especially like the combination of these patterns with smooth, minimalist pieces.

.........

A nova colecção de Primavera da Zara é simplesmente fantástica, pela variedade de cores, texturas e padrões. Mas o que mais me chamou a atenção nesta colecção foi a presença de padrões africanos. 

Há muito que a roupa tradicional africana tem vindo a marcar presença na moda, mas o facto é que ainda é muito difícil ter acesso a este tipo de roupa nas lojas, e é preciso comprar o tradicional pano e mandar fazer alguma peça numa costureira. Por isso adoro o facto de poder comprar estas peças na Zara. Gosto principalmente da combinação destes padrões com peças lisas e minimalistas.

Midi Skirt

        

Today I'm wearing a pink midi skirt. I was searching for a full midi skirt for a long time, but I didn't find one that actually fits me, so I sewed my own skirt, and I love it. It makes me feel so glamorous!! I thought that a midi skirt wouldn´t be great on me because I am a short girl, but with this heels I think it actually makes me taller. 

Mrs Carter in Portugal

Last night Beyonce was in Lisbon for an amazing concert. And this time I was there! My seats were too far from the stage, and I couldn´t see her very well, but.....anyway...I was there so I danced, jumped, screamed, sang, clapped, cried like a crazy.....and I had a lot of fun.

She is definitely a Diva. Her voice and her power is incredible. I wish she had sung my favourite songs "If I were a boy" an "Listen". But her new songs like "Flawless" and "XO" really rocked on stage.

I loved every single outfits, especially the first one (Tom Ford dress) and the Tartan look.

She really got something....and it isn't just about her beauty and her voice.......she is an inspiration for all the women who work hard to be respected in this men´s world.

"Because I am a female, I am expected to aspire to marriage,I am expected to make my choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important. Marriage can be... a source of joy and love and mutual support. But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don't teach boys the same?"

Next time I´ll be there again!!

Animal print

I never get tired of animal print...it´s a classic print. 

Today I´m wearing a pencil skirt with a black  blouse and nude sandals, just to go out for a walk....but I actually wear it to go to office ( with another shoes ). 

Hope you like it!!

It's my birthday

Yesterday was my birthday. I can't believe I am 30 years old now. I thought I would feel different ...but I am still feeling like I´m a little girl. 

Remember my wishlist from the previous post? It´s all about pink, nude and a classic romantic style. I bought these nude heels on Zara and the pink blouse on Primark, and I am wearing it with a lace skirt. Now that I am thirty I don´t wanna be to much girly but I want to stay feminine.

Black Fur

Hello!! Here´s my outfit of the last saturday: a black (faux) fur vest, a midi skirt, a denim shirt and ankle boots. Maybe those boots with the midi skirt makes my legs shorter, but I love it anyway:)

Happy New Year !!

Hello!!
I´ve been away from my blog for a few days because I´ve been so much busy moving to a new house and with the holidays that I didn´t have time to blogging. But now I am back and I have so much ideas to start this new year in a good way and .....with a lot of style.

This year I ´m gonna celebrate my 30th anniversary and maybe it´s time to change my style ....and change my life. I am older but I am more confident and feeling prettier than ever....just like every women should feel about themselves.

These are my goals for 2014

- Travel (..to London)

- Exercise regularly

- Start an Online Business

- Post regularly on my blog

- Learn makeup techniques 

- Make clothes / use the sewing machine more often

- Make a radical style change  (maybe try an afro hairstyle)

xx, Joana

Pied de Poule

Está de volta o clássico estampado preto e branco "Pied de Poule". depois de muito procurar por uma peça de roupa com este estampado, escolhi este vestido de corte clássico e cintura marcada. Infelizmente não consegui tirar fotos sem o casaco porque está muuuito frio. Espero que gostem também dos acessórios...o colar é uma peça feita por mim :)

...........

The classic  black and white print "Pied de Poule" is back. After a long search for a garment with this stamped I chose this classic dress. Unfortunately I could not take pictures without the jacket because it is sooooo cold. I hope you also enjoy the accessories ... the necklace is a piece made by me :)

Some Leather on Shorts

Olá! O look de hoje é, mais uma vez, com uma das minhas cores preferidas de outono: Burgundy ou Bordeaux. Mas o detalhe está nos calções pretos com uma faixa em couro. Espero que gostem!!!

........

Hello! The look today is, once again, with one of my favorite autumn colors: Burgundy or Bordeaux. But the detail is in the black shorts with some leather. Hope you enjoy!!

Tiger and Blue

Olá! O look de hoje é fiel a mais uma tendência de 2013: os tigres. Eu adoro as estampas com estes felinos, pela sua imagem dominante e poderosa. Podem encontrar este vestido nas lojas NewYorker. Espero que gostem. 

..........

Hello! Today´s look is  following one of the 2013´s trend: Tigers. I love the prints with these cats, because of their dominating and powerful image. You can find this dress in NewYorker´s stores. Hope you enjoy.

Plaid onTop

Olá!!! Estou de volta ao blog com um novo look...desta vez a seguir a tendência dos padrões plaid ou tartan. Definitivamente de volta aos anos 90. Lembro-me perfeitamente de usar os tops curtinhos e as saias plissadas quando andava na escola...e usa-se novamente!! Espero que gostem!!

.............

Hello!! I'm back to the blog with a new look ... this time following the trend of plaid or tartan patterns. Definitely back to the '90s. I remember using the crop tops and pleated skirts when I was in school ... and now I am wearing it again! Hope you enjoy!

Tribal print

O look de hoje é super confortável! Aliás, nada melhor do que umas calças largas com elástico na cintura para me sentir à vontade. Comprei-as na Stradivarius e estou viciada nelas. As calças já têm um estampado elaborado, por isso decidi combiná-las com uma blusa preta simples.

Espero que gostem!!

........

Today the look is super comfortable! Actually, nothing better than baggy jeans with elastic waist to feel at ease. I bought them in Stradivarius and am addicted to them. The pants have a noisy print, so I decided to combine them with a simple black blouse.

Hope you enjoy!

Sporty Chic

 Hoje o Outono fez uma pausa e voltou a estar calor ...o que me deixa muito bem disposta!! Não sei porquê mas hoje acordei cheia de energia e até resolvi fazer desporto numa manhã de sábado ( o que é extremamente raro....lol) E para continuar no estilo desportivo vesti este crop top... mas completei o look com algumas peças mais elegantes. Espero que gostem!!!

Today the autumn has made a pause and it is hot again ... which makes me feel so happy! I don´t know why but today I woke up full of energy and decided to do sport on a Saturday morning (which is extremely rare .... lol) And to continue in sporty style I am wearing this crop top ... but completed the look with some elegant pieces. Hope you enjoy!!
