winter is for colours

It looks like decades ago when I wore these outfits, but it was just a week ago. The weather keeps being unpredictable and spring is coming (but not fast enough!). It's time for lightweight coats and jackets and it's also time for colour. Totally embracing a colourful attitude to cheer up myself and others.
I'm busy now, as we have visitors at home, and we've gone out for some excursions and walks. Lovely to have people around and some social life. Still missing some friends and family gatherings but enjoying everytime we can meet and celebrate!


Parece que hace décadas desde que hice estas fotos, pero sólo hace una semana. El clima sigue siendo impredecible y la primavera está en camino (aunque sigue siendo esquiva!). Es el momento de ponerse abrigos más ligeros y es también el momento del Color. Personalmente estoy a favor de una actitud a tope de color, que me anime y anime también a los demás.
Ahora mismo estoy muy entretenida, porque tenemos visitas en casa y hemos salido de excursión por ahí. Es estupendo tener gente alrededor e incluso vida social. Aún echo de menos reunirme con amigos y familia, pero hay que aprovechar cada ocasión para celebrar.

  2. I'm totally swooning over your first outfit, Monica! Florals and stripes are such a fabulous combination. The necklace is a stunner too, and it's always a joy to see those turquoise Dr. Martens!
    The second outfit, with its purple skirt and blouse of many colours, is gorgeous too, as are those rings!
    It must be wonderful to have house guests, and social life picking up again. We were supposed to meet friends last weekend, and have a small family gathering the next, but both unfortunately were cancelled. The family gathering because three of them have Covid :-( Better safe than sorry! Besos xxx

  3. You are always so colourful, Monica, whatever the season. I loved the blue floral dress and I loved it paired with the striped tee underneath and the fab turquoise Doc Martens. Loved the second outfit, too.

    The new rings are gorgeous!

  7. You look fantastic - and those new rings are great. Whenever i'm in Spain I'm struck by how gorgeous the accessories in shops are there.

    I hope you missed out on the terrible weather that's been affecting the country.
