Another Day!

Oh hi darlings!

Our days of exploring the city always started with a 20/30 min journey in the tube, after an english breakfast at the hotel. This day (23.02.14) we went to King's Cross Station, Convent Garden and walked a little in Oxford Street with a final stop at the Hyde Park Corner, passing by the Marble Arch.

The day was slightly cloudy, but no rain whatsoever!

Os nossos dias a explorar a cidade começavam sempre com 20 a 30 min no metro, depois de um pequeno-almoço inglês à séria, no hotel. Neste dia (23.02.14) fomos à estação de King's Cross, a Convent Garden e passeámos um bocadinho na Oxford Street com a última paragem no Hyde Park Corner, passando pelo Marble Arch.

O dia estava um pouco nublado, mas sem um pingo de chuva!

Here are the pictures of the 23rd!

When in London...

Oh hi darlings!

So it happened! And it was one of the best weeks ever! 

I am going to do various posts with pictures from the 22nd to the 28th.

On the 22nd we arrived around 10am, and it was sunny and beautiful (it was a pleasant surprise!). We went to the hotel to freshen up and to drop off the bags and left to explore London, this around 3pm. Here are the pictures of our adventure!

Aconteceu mesmo! E foi uma das melhores semanas de sempre!

Irei postar várias vezes, com diversas fotografias desde o dia 22 até 28.

No dia 22 chegámos a Londres por volta das 10 e tal, estava solarengo (o que foi uma agradável surpresa!). Fomos ao hotel refrescar e para deixar as malas e depois decidimos ir passear a Londres, isto por volta das 15 e poucos. Aqui estão as fotografias por onde nós andámos!

First we went to Trafalgar Square:

Going to London

Oh hi darlings!

É oficial e definitivo, vou a Londres no dia 22 de Fevereiro! Está quase quase e mal posso esperar! Estive lá duas vezes, e apaixonei-me completamente. Sempre quis lá voltar e, principalmente, ir para lá viver. 

Desta vez vou com o meu namorado e vamos ficar uma semana. Nunca viajei sozinha de avião (sem os meus pais), e queria muito dar este passo.

Espero que corra tudo bem!

It is official, I am going to London on the 22nd of February! It's almost here, I can't wait! I've been there twice, and completely fell in love for the city. I always wanted to return and a dream of mine is to move there. 

This time I'm going with my boyfriend and we are staying a week. I've never traveled alone by plane (I've always done it with my parents) and I really wanted to take this step.

I hope everything goes well!

yours, Joana

Almost there...

Oh hi darlings!

I'm so sorry for my absence, but finals time is really hard and time consuming... Studying has become part of my daily routine and I am really exhausted, but fortunately, I have my last exam on Wednesday! yayyyy!
I really hope everything is alright with you and that your days have been great!

PS.: Christmas is almost here! Can't wait to have time to do some baking!

Me studying for my Physics II exam on Starbucks...

FALL/AUTUMN ESSENTIALS

Oh hi darlings!

I haven't been posting and I am truly sorry about that, but this semester has been super busy, crazy and difficult. I barely have time to relax or do something fun.

Here are some Autumn trends, places where to buy them and outfit ideas. I hope you get some inspiration! Have a nice day :)

Faux Leather

It is sexy, it is classy, and it screams autumn!

It could be a faux leather skirt or shorts, could be a simple leather jacket or it could be just accents and details on other pieces of clothing! Here are some looks from the Missguided site:

From Missguided

Tartan
Sophisticated and a really nice pop of colour and texture, looks amazing with almost everything!

From Zara (scarf) and Missguided

Circle/skater skirts

Very flattering and cute, suits every body type, it is really elegant and fancy and goes perfectly with some black tights underneath. You will look classy and sweet!

From Topshop and H&M

Pompom knitted hats

Really useful for those cold days (and bad hair days), it keeps you warm and they are really adorable.
