Easter break!!
God bless the Easter break! At least in Wales, from the 27th of March to the 20th of April, 3 long weeks of freedom to forget about Uni. I am supposed to think about the essays I'll have to write when I come back but I will be travelling to Spain and London instead... I'll keep you updated!! I'm just writing to apologize for the future lack of posting!!!

Matthew Williamson for H&M rocks!!
Everybody is talking about it an we are all waiting, blogs are full of rumours and sneak peak pictures, tension goes up, thinking about 23rd of April, when Matthew Williamson's collection for H&M will arrive to the shops.
Pero para que malgastar palabras cuando el propio Williamson nos puede explicar todo lo que necesitamos saber en este video. Me gusta la coleccion en general peor el traje azul y el vestido rosa con cinturon son increibles, no hace flata siquiera hablar del mini vestido con las plumas de pavo real dibujadas...
Why use more words when the man himself can explain everything we need to know. I really like everything but the blue suit and the pink dress with the belt are superb, not to talk about the mini dress with drawn peacock feathers!

Shoes, shoes, shoes!!!
If the mayority of women in the world share something in life is probably an passion for shoes. For this Spring they are mostly sandals and open shoes apart from the strappy sandals that everybody has already. This is a small selection of my favourites, some of them have been seen eveywhere for the past months but I still love them!

.......... Nude ..........

Haciendo honor a la primavera que ya esta entre nosotros, voy a recuperar el repaso de las tendencias tras el paron de las semanas de la moda. Los tonos maquillaje o 'nude' pueden ser una eleccion perfecta para la primavera y el verano. Es cuestion de encontrar el tono que se ajusta a nuestro bronceado pero desde el blanco roto hasta los tonos melocoton pasando por beiges y tostados, todo esta permitido.
Spring is already among us so I'm going to go back to the trends review. Nudes were all over the catwalks for this season (and the next one too). You only hve to try and find the shade that better suits your tanned skin, the good news is you have a wide range to choose, from cream to peach, light browns, beige...

El total look en nude tambien es relativamente facil de conseguir porque a estas alturas todo el mundo tiene unas sandalias de tiras marrones o algun tipo de zapato en tonos claros. Al ser una gama de colores muy combinables entre si podemos utulizar varias prendas de la gama y conseguir un acercamiento a las pasarelas mundiales. Pero la combinacion vestido nude y complementos en negro tambien se acepta y los tonos mas claros pueden ser combinados con colores diferentes al negro asi que todo el mundo a experimentar.
The total look in nude is relatively easy to get because by now everybody has some kind of strappy sandal in brown or a pair of shoes in light colors. This shades are very combinable so we can put all our nudes together and get a catwalk look. It is also possible to pair nude with black, nice and easy and lighter shades can also be paired with other colours so lets play!

Para acercarse al look con este tiempo primaveral tan inestable se puede buscar alguna camiseta beige (en Topshop hay muchas de diferentes largos y formas perfectas para este proposito) con leggings y boyfriend blazer. Si nos aseguramos de que el largo es suficiente siempre podremos usar la camiseta como vestido en verano con las piernas morenas.

If I was a rich girl (Vol.2)
El vestido de terciopelo granate de Fendi es sencillamente bonito, brillante, de tacto suave y tan facil!.
Y el vestido de Costume National seria mas bien compra de mañana mismo, asimetrico, corto, brillante.. perfecto para este verano vamos
Continuing with the things I will buy if I could, here is this YSL bustier that may look difficult in the model but that I will combine, I thing quite OK, with high waisted skirts and sheer tops...
The maroon velvet Fendi dress looks so soft, nice, warm... I just love it.
And the Costume National dress is more of a summer dream actually. Asymetric, bright, short... perfect for this spring!
Otra compra muy socorrida es este top de Isabel Marant. Como ya os dije en su momento me compraria casi toda la coleccion pero tenia que escoger asi que..
And this is it for now. I promise to avoid the next season topic as much as possible and let you all enjoy the spring, that by the way seems to be here because the sun is shining even in Wales!!Fotos / Pics: vogue.es

Bye, bye Oliver...
Oliver Theyskens leaves Nina Ricci. Some said the marvellous Fall 09 collection was a goodbye, others couldn't believe that the french maison was going to permit such a brillian designer leave them,

Llego a Nina Ricci en 2006 despues de un gran trabajo en Rochas, y aunque la critica normalmente le halaga las ventas no subieron. Reese Witherspoon y Sarah Jessica Parker visten sus diseños en la alfombra roja y fue uno de los primeros en mostrar faldas cortas por alante y largas por atras.
He arrived to Nina Ricci in 2006 (after a great job in Rochas) and even though the critic normally loves his job, sales didn't go up. Reese Witherspoon and Sarah Jessica Parker usually wear his gowns in the red carpet and he was the one of the first to start the short-in-the-front-and-long-in-the-back skirts.

Veremos que diseñador entra a formar parte de Nina Ricci. En cuanto a Theyskens no debemos preocuparnos porque se rumorea que va a volver a iniciar su propia marca ( comenzo una nada mas abandonar la escuela de diseño pero tuvo que cerrarla por falta de fondos), asi que si tenemos suerte dentro de poco volveremos a ver algun diseño suyo encima de una pasarela.

If I was a rich girl...(Vol.1)
Finally, after the fashion shows ended, it looks like we are free to think about spring again, although if we are clever enough we'll think about fall trends in our spring summer buys so we can use the clothes for longer. Anyway, before I go back to flowers and swimming suits I'm going to share with you my dream clothes for nest fall, what I will definetely buy if I had the means, of course (don´t worry about me too much, I will find a way of buying similar pieces)
