Revisiting my closet – Revisitando o meu armário da roupa


I love when I dig deep into my closet, finding clothes that I own from previous seasons, and I’m able to mix them into very contemporary and fashionable looks. This is the case with this outfit: I knitted the top and I made the wide leg pants back in 2009, but they feel pretty updated for spring-summer 2011. I just love the sea foam green combined with the coral, it’s not seen very often yet it feels trendy to me. The flowery foulard complements the outfit like a charm, and the white satchel adds some freshness. When I was taking the pictures outdoors, noticed that I had forgotten the earrings and the rings on my makeup cabinet; I had to go back in the house for them… I took the last picture already at the office, to be able to show you all the accessories that I’m wearing today. Have a great day!

Adoro procurar fundo nos armários de roupa e descobrir peças que tenho de estações passadas, que combinadas proporcionam conjuntos muito dentro das tendências actuais. É o caso deste conjunto: tricotei o top e costurei as calças em 2009, mas enquadram-se perfeitamente nas tendências do momento. Adoro o verde-água combinado com o coral, não é uma combinação que se vê muito por aí, no entanto a mim parece-me mesmo bastante actual. A écharpe florida complementa o conjunto na perfeição, e a bolsa branca dá-lhe um ar extra de frescura. Quando estava a tirar as fotos reparei que me tinha esquecido dos brincos e dos anéis na bancada onde me costumo maquilhar, tive de voltar dentro de casa para os ir buscar… A última foto tirei-a já no escritório para poderem ver todos os acessórios que estou a usar hoje. Tenham um óptimo dia!

  3. Amo vermelho. Verde-água já não me encanta tanto, as cores mais puxadas para o amarelo me deixam com cara de doente... mas você ficou bem. A echarpe casou maravilhosamente com o top.
    Mais beijos.

  4. The combo is great and I think your sweater is gorgeous but the jewelry, esp the cloisonne bracelet (sigh), well, glad you went back in to get the jewelry and show it!

  7. You are absolutely right: cotal is one of the most popular colours this season as the wide pants are too! And I have a very similar feeling for colour combination: I have just finished a red skirt, which I already imagine to combine with a turqoise - also last made top:-)

  8. I have recently seen on a couple of blogs (sorry can't remember where) turqoise and coral together. I think it looks very fresh. And the scarf ties the colours in together very well. Love those shoes too!
