Hello Lovers! Hoje passei uma manhã bem divertida no meio de neve, neve e mais neve. Tirando o frio é uma sensação óptima andar na rua e ver a neve a cair. As ruas estão praticamente cobertas e penso que aqui em Londres vai manter-se assim esta semana. As botas (embora possa parecer que não) são super confortáveis! Podem adquiri-las na loja online LEATHER LOVE shop! A minha maior perdição são sem dúvida sapatos, e estes estão definitivamente no meu top 5! Vou tentar começar a postar mais fotografias minhas (embora com este tempo não seja fácil). Love, Raquel Aquino xxx

Hello Lovers! Today I had a very fun morning surrounded with snow, snow and more snow. I loved being on the streets and watching the snow falling down (of course I wish it wasn't this cold). These boots are also a new purchase. I know they seem really high (and they sure are) but they're amazingly comfortable! I have to be honest, I lost the track of how many pair of shoes I have, but these babies are definetly on my top 5! You can buy them on LEATHER LOVE shop! I'm going to try to start posting more pictures of myself (although it can be sometimes difficult due to this weather). Love, Raquel Aquino xxx

Zara black and white

Hello lovers! I've been away for a couple of months now, dealing with my final master dissertation and my internship at an advertisement company but now I'm back to put this baby to work!

Here's a look inspired in items at www.zara.com and I hope you like it! I just love black and white outfits so I had this pulled together.
A clean white dress with an androgen look added by this amazing jacket and this power bomb boots!
Easy breezy!

Lots of love,

Her heart was a secret garden and the walls were very high

Este vestido é a minha última aquisição da AX PARIS e não podia estar mais feliz! Quando o vi sabia que o tinha de ter por ser completamente diferente! É super confortável, e sei que lhe vou dar imenso uso! Existe em preto e em branco, e poderão encontrar o vestido AQUI!

As botas são também novas, e são da Daisy Street. Descobri este site há alguns meses e o que mais gosto é sem dúvida a secção de sapatos, pois têm sempre variadíssimos modelos.

Aqui em Londres finalmente já parece Verão, tem estado sol todos os dias e a maioria dos dias nem é preciso casaco. Faltam-me dois mesinhos para acabar as aulas e voltar para Portugal e aí sim fazer praia todos os dias, churrascadas e claro matar saudades da família e dos amigos.

Espreitem o site da AX PARIS! Têm vestidos giríssimos para todas as ocasiões.

E não se esqueçam de participar no PASSATEMPO CAT EYE SUNGLASSES!

Espero que gostem :)

Love, R

This dress is my latest acquisition from AX PARIS and I couldn't be happier! When I saw it I knew I had to have it since it's so different from the other ones I had. It's so comfortable and I know I'm gonna use it non stop! You can get it in black or white, and you can check this dress HERES!

This boots are new as well, and I bought them from Daisy Street's website. I found this website a couple of months ago and the thing I like the most there is the footwear section.

It already feels likeSummerhere in London, it's been sunny everyday so some days I don't even need a jacket!

There's only two months left for me to finish my Master's classes and to return to Portugal, I can't wait to go to the beach everyday and hang with my family and friends. I really miss them so much!

Check out AX PARIS' website, they have the most beautiful dresses for all occasions, and footwear and accessories as well!

And don't forget to enter the CAT EYED SUNGLASSES COMPETITION!

Hope you like it :)

Love, R
