vintage coat and maryjanes

These days I've been working on my new home, hanging some pictures and looking for some kind of curtain, and I have to say that decorating is not my favorite activity. But wearing something comfy and colorful usually cheers up my day, so I picked one of my favorite coats ever. It's a framboise wool coat from my mom's wardrobe which she gave me (a fabulous eighties piece that wasn't being worn). I wear it a few times a year, because spring coats are not the most practical pieces for our usually rainy spring weather. But I enjoy it everytime I wear, and fun factor is key to keep a cloth in my wardrobe!

Estos días he estado trabajando en la nueva casa, colgando cuadros y buscando alguna clase de cortina, y debo decir que la decoración no es de las cosas que más me gustan en el mundo. Pero siempre me alegra el día el echarme encima algo cómodo y colorido, así que elegí uno de mis abrigos favoritos. Es un abrigo de lana color frambuesa, del armario de mi madre, que ella me regaló porque no se lo iba a poner, una prenda de los ochenta excelente!. Lo llevo sólo unas pocas veces al año, porque los abrigos de primavera no son nada prácticos cuando aquí la primavera suele ser tan lluviosa. Pero lo disfruto tanto cada vez que lo llevo, que el factor diversión supera todo lo demás, y seguiré conservándolo en mi armario!

I've worn once more this 80's dress which Sacramento sent to me (into a delightful parcel of joy!) and I'm in love with it!.

También me he puesto de nuevo este vestido ochentero que Sacramento me mandó, dentro de una estupenda cajita con muchas cosas, y de verdad que me encanta!

  1. What a lovely coat and it looks wonderful on you. Your mum has brilliant taste. It goes really well with the dress Sacramento sent you. It also looks fabulous with your ASOS dress. I love all the colours - what a cheerful and beautiful sight you are!

    I hate decorating too - almost as bad as cleaning the oven!

  4. Both dresses look great on you, and I love the colour of your mum's coat! I agree with you that spring coats are not always practical. I have lovely pink one, which I have never worn, since it is either too cold, too warm, or too wet! Lovely brooch and hairpiece too. xxx

  5. I agree with you - fun factor is a must for me too! This is such a beautiful coat, I can tell it is really well made too. Your sense of colors and shapes always amazes me. You have an artistic eye! Love this coat with both dresses and both color schemes. And your always thoughtful accessorizing - beautiful bags, beret, pin!

  7. Red and teal.
    Red and purple.
    Red and anything!!.....it works, and I love it!
    This punch of vibrant colour is really inspiring me to dig out more red from my wardrobe. I have been reaching for more muted colours recently.
    I love how you inject colour and joy into every post.
