At the beginning I was very resistant about wearing anything with animal prints. But after buying my first leopard print flats, I just threw away all preconceived notions about this fashion style. I then realized that this kind of pattern can give a nice update to a look, can make it look very feminine, gracious and daring.

So when I saw this zebra print coat (for an excellent price) I had no doubt that I was going to buy it. I really, really loved it and I think it is really easy to wear with other different pieces and it can add some fun to the all those dark winter tones I’ve already talked about.

How about you girls, have you embraced the animal print fashion trend yet?

No comeco eu tinha uma certa resistencia em relacao as essas estampas, mas bastou comprar uma sapatilha de oncinha e me entregar  as estampas de animais, deixei de lado o conceito “perua” que sempre achei atrelado a esses tipos de estampas e vi que poderiam sim, dar uma composicao super bacana ao look, atraves da feminilidade, graciosidade e ate uma certa “ousadia” que essas estampas expressam.

Por isso, quando vi esse casaco de zebra por um preco super tentador, nao tive duvidas que essa “zebrinha seria minha”. Afinal, amo essa estampa, acho super facil de coordenar com outras pecas e ideal para dar uma quebrada nos tons escuros e sobrios do inverno. E voces? Aderiram a “animal print” ou ainda torcem o nariz?

Update:

The weather down here is perfect and vacation is awesome, but to take good pictures and posting them proved to a bigger hassle than I thought it would be. I have not adapted to using this tripod thing yet and by the time I get it right I’m already all sweat and hair is unmade. The photo editor also does not help much and having access to the internet here  proved to be a challenge in itself. So, the difficulties are many but I will do my best to post while I’m down here.

My days are spent between the pool and delicious meals, I haven’t gone to any “special” place and I haven’t gone to the beach yet, but I rested a lot and just to think that the temperatures in Boston now reached -15 degrees Celsius, I feel happy to be here.

I got these pants as a gift, I simply loved the stripes, the baggy feeling to it and a nice fabric texture. To use any type of pants here is not a simple task, I think I really forgot how hot Brazilian summers are.

Have a nice weekend everyone, many thanks for all your comments on the previous post as well as for your patience on waiting for this one!

O clima esta perfeito, as ferias estao deliciosas, mas as dificuldades em tirar boas fotos e posta-las sao imensas. Nao me adaptei super bem ao tripe, quando consigo regular o negocio, ja estou suada e descabelada. O programa de edicao de imagens aqui nao e dos melhores e ter acesso ao computador e quase uma vitoria. Enfim, as dificuldades sao varias, mas farei o possivel para ter alguns posts enquanto estiver no Brasil.

Os dias se alternam entre piscina e deliciosas refeicoes, ainda nao fiz nenhum passeio super especial, e tambem nao fui a praia, mas tenho descansado bastante e so de pensar que em Boston as temperaturas ja chegaram a 15 graus negativos, fico feliz em estar aqui.

Ganhei essa calca de presente, simplesmente adorei as listras, o fato de ser larguinha e num tecido super bacana. Usar calcas por aqui nao e simples, acho que tinha realmente me esquecido como e o verao do Brasil.

Bom fim de semana a todos e super obrigada pelos comentarios no post anterior, bem como pela paciencia na espera por esse!

Back in the day, it was either a sign of glamour or considered tacky. Always present in parties and “drag queen-like” productions, sequins, to my happiness, are present in a variety of types, colors, and shapes (and I want them all). And by being a sequins addict, I embrace the sequins fashion and go like this!

Em algumas epocas sinonimo de glamour, em outras tido como brega, sempre presente em festas e  producoes meio “drag queen”, os paetes,  para minha absurda alegria, aparecem na mais variadas versoes (quero tooooooodas). E eu como uma paete addict, me jogo na moda e saio assim!

T-shirts: it’s been looooong since I’ve used them, but this Sunday I finally surrendered to my big adolescence companion. T-shirts can go from being merely “movie extras” to “main protagonists”, and are capable of not only putting a finish touch on a look but also conveying a message. When I saw this “Look Inside” one at H&M, I had no doubt in my mind, it is miiiiiiiine!

¡Los comentarios en español son muy bienvenidos… Aunque yo no blog en español, yo entiendo y tengo una pasión inmensa y especial por la lengua!

Fiquei um boooom tempo sem usar camisetas, ate que me rendi novamente a minha grande companheira de adolescencia e voltei a usa-las. De simples coadjuvantes no passado, a atrizes principais no futuro, as camisetas sao capazes nao so de compor um look , mas tambem de transmitir uma mensagem. Quando vi essa “Look Inside” na H&M, nao tive duvidas. E minhaaaaaaa!
