sandals & coat

This is what I worn some days ago, when mornings were chilly enough to wear a cardi or jacket. Only that instead of wearing a cardi I picked this coat, which was pretty comfortable for the weather conditions. I have to confess that I love summer coats and dust coats, I'm a huge fan of 80's style.
The massive brooch is something I found in a drawer, when I was looking for some craft supplies. I made it myself of papier maché, some time ago, but never worn it so much than it deserves!. Now I'm making some massive bracelets that will match it!
It's not that chilly now, but it's not very hot either. Nothing to do with the awful heat that some regions in the south of the country have been suffering. I hope that it won't last!
Have a nice weekend!

Esto es lo que me puse hace unos días, cuando las temperaturas eran lo bastante frescas como para llevar una chaqueta por las mañanas. Sólo que, en vez de ponerme una chaqueta, elegí este abrigo, que me resultó muy agradable para el tiempo que hacía!. Reconozco que me encantan los abrigos de verano y los guardapolvos, soy muy fan del estilo ochentero.
El broche gigantesco lo encontré hace poco en un cajón, cuando buscaba material para manualidades. Es algo que hice la última vez que me dió por el papel maché. Desde entonces, no me lo he puesto casi nada, y el caso es que tiene su punto. Ahora que estoy haciendo otra vez papel maché, tengo unos brazaletes que le van a ir a juego!
Ya no hace tan fresquito, pero tampoco hace mucho calor. Nada que ver con la horrible ola de calor que hay en el sur del país, y que espero que no dure. Qué verano estamos teniendo!
Mientras tanto, que tengáis un buen fin de semana!

  1. I love your brooch! I also love the outfit in its entirety - red and black always look good. The pants are fabulous.

    It's lazing down with rain and very strong winds here in not so sunny Donegal!

  6. LOOOVE this brooch! You made it!? That's fantastic!

    I also love long jackets/summer coats, and this style looks so organic on you! I love all the broad variety of styles that you wear, but I think this is my most favorite. So elegant and yet at the same time edgy! It really becomes you!
