sunny inside

These are two outfits I worn last week, and both of them were worn under a black coat, which I thought it was not interesting enough to be photographed. You know, black coats are like a uniform in this bleak midwinter!
I took some pics at home, as it was a really rainy and windy day, very dark, even if my pics look very brightly-lit. And yes, those are shorts worn by a middle aged (fat) woman. No fashion police arrested me yet. I made these shorts from an old pair of black 'corporate' pants, and I think it was a pretty good idea as I couldn't imagine why I owned a pair of corporate pants!.




Esto es lo que llevé en dos ocasiones distintas, la semana pasada, pero ni siquiera se me ocurrió fotografiar el abrigo negro que llevaba, no me pareció interesante. Ya sabéis, un abrigo negro es como un uniforme en estos días de invierno.
Tuve que tomar algunas fotos en casa, el tiempo no acompañaba, lluvia, viento, un día oscurísimo, aunque parezca que las fotos están muy iluminadas. Y sí, eso que véis es una señora de mediana edad llevando shorts. Y no se abrieron los cielos ni nada. Ni me paró la policía de la moda. Me hice estos pantaloncillos recortando unos típicos pantalones de vestir, de traje, y creo que fue una buena idea, porque ni idea de porqué tenía yo unos pantalones así.




This is what I worn to go to the cinema with Mr.A. As a huge fan of comfort, I like to wear a full skirt if I'm going to be seated for a while, even better if it's a wrinkle-free dress. Comfy shoes are also very appreciated!. I like particularly this dress, it was one of my first attempts to sew something more difficult than a three seams skirt!.

Esto es lo que me puse para ir al cine con Mr.A. Y como soy muy maniática de la comodidad, me gustan los vestidos de vuelo si voy a estar sentada un rato largo, y mejor incluso si no se arrugan, como es el caso. También son muy de agradecer los zapatos cómodos!. En realidad, lo que hace que me guste este vestido, es que fue uno de mis primeros intentos de coser algo más complicado que una falda de tres costuras.

  2. That dress is fantastic and I quite approve of you wearing those shorts! It's the people wearing drab "uniform" who should be arrested by the fashion police, but certainly not you, Monica! You are an inspiration to us all! Besos xxx

  3. You are very daring, Monica! The shorts look fantastic and I love the yellow tunic, cardigan and all your accessories. The dress is beautiful - what an interesting print. Love all your jewellery - that brooch on the print dress is fabulous. Keep on annoying the fashion police - they're only jealous they don't have your chutzpah and joie de vivre! xx

  4. Woo, shorts, look at you! I love that you cut up corporate pants to make them. That Paris dress is fantastic. You are the BEST accessorizer I've seen in ages.
