Just because I like it

  Before leaving the party, my girlfriend just took off the hat from of someone's head and when he yelled from the balcony, she just ran away. The next day, of course she felt guilty and gave me the hat for return it, but as the party was for my birthday and he didn't had gift, told me to keep it and I did not ask twice. So among all that I have and those who have given me this little green and blue hat is one of my favorites because it makes me smile when I remember how he came to my hands.   Antes de irse de la fiesta, mi amiga le quito el sombrero a alguien que se encontró camino a la salida y aunque él le grito desde el balcón, ella simplemente se echo a correr. Al otro día, por supuesto mi amiga se sintió culpable y me dió el sombrero para que se lo devolviera, pero como la fiesta había sido por mi cumpleaños y él no llevaba regalo, me dijo que me lo quedara y no tuvo que pedirlo dos veces. Así que de todos los que tengo y los que me han...

My sister in law gave me this leather jacket because was too small, together with a lot of beautiful dresses. Never bother to me when people to give me away clothes that they no longer want to use on the contrary, especially when is impeccable and especially as cute as this. The stockings were also an incidental finding in a little shop in a small town in Greece that seemed about to close and which were giving away everything.   Mi cuñada me regalo este saco porque ya no le quedaba, junto con un montón de vestidos preciosos. Nunca me ha sentado mal que la gente me regale ropa que ya no quiere usar, al contrario, especialmente cuando esta impecable y sobre todo tan linda como esta. Las medias también fueron un hallazgo fortuito, en una pequeña tienda de una pequeña ciudad en Grecia que parecía estar a punto de cerrar y donde estaban rematándolo todo. jacket: Milano / shirt: Zara / gloves: H&M / vest: Capacity / skirt: Mango

  Además de los sombreros, me encantan las medias de colores, caladas o con dibujos y por supuesto, las tengo a montones: floreadas, con diseños geométricos y rayadas. En invierno son muy útiles y las uso diario, incluso debajo del pantalón. Estas son de lana, calentitas y de colores alegres, a tono con la recién estrenada primavera.     Besides hats, I love colorful and patterned tights and of course, I have many: flowery, geometric designs, fishnet , striped. In winter are very useful and I wear them everyday (even as underwear). These are made from wool, warm and striped in bright colors, according with the brand new spring. skirt: H&M / tights: Calzedonia / boots: Carlo Rossetti / sweater: Gap / bennie: Accessorize

 The last walk on the island, through the woods, on the perfect lawn. The last walk before going home for holidays. Denim on top of wool, on top of cotton, because it still cold and windy, and the fjord doesn't know is already May. The last walk, because I dont have to pack, and not to worry, just wait 48 hours and I will be at home. El ultimo paseo por la isla, por el bosque, por el césped perfecto. El ultimo paseo antes de ir de vacaciones a casa. Mezclilla, sobre lana, sobre algodón, porque hace todavía aire y frío, y al fiordo no le importa que ya sea mayo. El ultimo paseo, porque no tengo que empacar, ni que preocuparme, solo esperar y en 48 horas estoy en casa.    skirt: Lindex / jacket: Levis / shirt: Zara / boots: Nelson / sweater: Gap / bennie: Tardan  

I found the burgundy suede jacket, cleaning a loft in my grandparents' house. Along with a lot of clothes from another era, several wigs, a couple of hats and a box with all the dresses used for my grandmother at weddings of all their children, I mean a real treasure. I took the jacket to the dry cleaning and to repair and I have used it since then for almost fifteen years, which is very little compared to the time it spends abandoned before I the rescue it and got into my closet. La chaqueta de gamuza color vino, la encontré limpiando un tapanco en casa de mis abuelos. Junto con un montón de ropa de otra época, varias pelucas, un par de sombreros y una caja con todos los vestidos que usó mi abuela en las bodas de todos sus hijos, osea un verdadero tesoro. Llevé la chaqueta al tinte y a reparar y la he usado desde entonces por casi quince años, que es poco comparado con el tiempo que seguro pasó abandonada antes de que la rescatara y la meti...

As a child my mother insisted on buying tartan skirts that I never used. When years later I rediscovered it at the back of my closet, began to use them with for "sober" occasions. Now I love them and I find really nice the old tartan fabrics, warm and versatile and although I couldn't get them back all, I still have a couple of those skirts that my mom so carefully chose me. Cuando era niña mi madre insistía en comprarme faldas de tartán que yo nunca me ponía. Cuando años después las redescubrí en el fondo del armario comencé a usarlas con calcetines y para las ocasiones “serias”. Ahora me encantan y encuentro cada vez más lindos los tejidos de tartán, calentitos y versátiles y aunque he tratado de recuperarlas, me quedan solo un par de aquellas faldas que con tanto cuidado mi mama me escogía. jacket: Mango / skirt: Taylored / jersey: Bikbok / gloves: Lindex / cap: Accezzorise

Was snowing all night, and everything was clean and silent, I couldn't resist a long walk. Although I bought the scarf as a present for a He, I loved because is warm, very colorful and XL, so decided to keep it and maybe, share it sometimes. Nevó toda la noche y todo estaba limpio y silencioso, así que no pude resistir salir a caminar. Aunque compre la bufanda para un Él, me encantó la combinación de colores y por calentita y extra-larga, así que decidí quemármela, y tal vez, compartirla algunas veces. Χιόνιζε όλη τη νύχτα και όλα ήταν καθαρά και σιωπηρά, δε μπόρεσα να αντισταθώ έναν περίπατο. Παρόλο που αγόρασα το κασκόλ για αυτόν, το λάτρεψα γιατί ήταν ζεστό, πολύχρωμο και έξτρα λάρτζ, για αυτό και αποφάσια να το κρατήσω και ίσως να το μοιράζομαι που και που.    cap: H&M / jeans: Kaphai / jacket: Kaphal / scarf: Utopia / gloves: Indiska

 The coat belonged first to the grandmother of my best childhood friend, acquired by the way at the iconic Galeries Lafayette. Then my mother used it for over 20 years, sometimes directly on top of her pyjamas and and now I wear it during the Nordic winter. Warm, perfect, heavy and with an unique texture, It transported me to another time and I feel a bit like the grandmother of my best childhood friend when she walked wearing the same coat, with her husband through the streets of Paris. El abrigo perteneció primero a la abuela de mi mejor amigo de la infancia, adquirido por cierto en los icónicos almacenes Galeries Lafayette . Después lo usó mi madre durante mas de 20 años, algunas veces directamente encima de la pijama y y ahora me lo pongo yo en el invierno nórdico. Calentito, perfecto, pesado y con una textura única, me hace sentir transportada a otra época y me siento un poco como la abuela de mi mejor amigo de la infancia cuando caminaba con el mismo a...

The Liza Yu Chen Hat Shop ( 116 MacDougal Street, NYC ) is a paradise for a hat lover like me. Almost every object in this little shop is handmade by the owner including hats, ski caps and other accessories like scarves, using all kinds of materials. I was trying on knitted hats (which are the majority) while Liza tried to tell either my fortune and wonderful stories about hats and diverse customers. When I found this teapot-shaped hat, I literally couldn't get it out of my head (even though we were in May). When I asked her about the price, she replied that all the pieces in her store were unique, woven by herself and my “teapot” was special because its hand-carved buttons which made it also a bit more expensive, so I could not protest. Then she smiled asked me to write my postal address on her visit book and she promised to send a Christmas postcard, which she did for the next eight years . http://www.littleviews.com/home/newyork/funky_ski_hats.cfm ...

I decided if the coat that I liked was still in the store after my return from summer holiday, I would have to buy it. After I tried it on five different occasions and have left it in the shop because “I really don't need it”, I acquired it for 350 kr on a vintage clothing shop that is now a tattoo saloon. I call it my black and white military coat, and was my favorite for almost a year. I waited more than six months to wear it, and the pictures were taken were after an appointment at the Embassy of Greece, a building that was much colder than the park.       Decidí que si el abrigo estaba todavía colgado ahí, al regreso de mis vacaciones de verano, sería una señal de que tendría que comprarlo. Así que después de probármelo casi en cinco ocasiones distintas y no habérmelo llevado porque “en realidad no lo necesitaba”, finalmente lo adquirí por 350 kr en una tienda de ropa de segunda mano que ahora es una salón de tatuajes. Esperé mas de seis ...
