Très Chic Style Bits #8 | again the plaid pants..... sixty seconds....

Once again time for our Link Up Party “Très Chic Style Bits”.
At the bottom of this post is the button you must click to had your link.

This is what I wore last Friday. I started to dress the plaid pants because I wanted to join with Anne at Spy Girl for 52 Pickup which theme this week is to combine as many plaids as you can in one outfit.
But I ended with just one plaid and realizing that the few plaids I have don’t go well with each other
.
It was another Friday 13th…. Have you spent it well?????
Are you superstitious about it?
Me, I have no paraskevidekatriaphobia (if you want to know more about it you can red this post I did on one Friday 13th).
I think someone said “Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.”

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time...

You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love...

So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back...

Yesterday we had a Christmas dinner party, so I had no time to prepare this post, that's the reason it's live later than the others Linky Parties.

tweed jacket and navy blue velvet pants….

 photo navypants_zpsf63580f2.jpg

After a tough night of so much wind and rain, today was not so bad. But we guess it’s just a window, because the weather forecast for tomorrow is rain again.
Anyway I grab this opportunity and went to my hairstylist to do some red highlights on my hair and spice it a bit to the holidays. (Not very well seen in the pictures)
My velvet pants look black in the photos, but I can assure you that they are navy blue!

 photo navypants1_zpse1215c28.jpg

I see most of the people so busy with Christmas preparations, but to tell you the true I’m not in the mood for it and still haven’t done anything.
Since my mother’s death, almost four years ago, that Hubby and I use to spend Christmas with Sister and her family in Toronto.
This year we couldn’t make it, so we are going to spend Christmas just the two of us.
What about you, are you getting ready for the Holidays?

Très Chic Style Bits #7 | pleather pants and pearls......

Once again time for our Link Up Party “Très Chic Style Bits”.
I want to publicly give thanks to two sweet and lovely ladies, Celia from Living My High Heeled Life and Jan from Fort Smith Stylista, for all the support they have been giving me about the Linky and for the encouragement to not give up.
At the bottom of this post is the button you must click to had your link.


We have been under such a bad weather, (photos above were taken during the week by some FB friends) with lots of wind and rain, that it was impossible to me to take some photos outdoors, all the week. And we haven’t any forecasts when it will stop. Storms in the Island can be tough.

 photo pleatherpants3_zps770e2a5e.jpg

Despite I started this blog with indoors pictures, I’m not very fond of them. The lights, the brightness, the shadows….. there are some factors that can ruin a good look with a bad photo.
But well, we must live with what we have….. if we can’t have it then let’s find another solution. So here I am with some indoors photos.

 photo pleatherpants2_zpsb389ba72.jpg

This is what I dressed (minus the rain coat) to go with Hubby in some kind of a date, dinner out, last night.
I tried to balance the pleather pants and booties’ rock vibes with the femininity of the pearls.
I always have been a hat’s lover and I have a few hats. However, living in a small conservative city, I usually felt weird when I wore a hat and most of the people stared at me. But lately I guess I feel more confident in wearing them.

As I’m wearing a hat maybe I’ll be in time to link to Style Crone's December Hat Attack, where Judith shows her amazing feathered hat.

Also since I’m wearing a few layers (does the inside cami also counts Anne? ;) ) I’m joining with Anne at Spy Girl for 52 Pickup which theme this week is Get Layered.

plaid again..... and with leopard.......

 photo plaidandleopard3_zps0b1267b0.jpg

There’s this weird thing I have, most of the times, when I give a big smile or laugh I close my eyes……. but Hubby says that he prefers the big smile, even with the eyes closed.

 photo plaidandleopard2_zps1b4de447.jpg

I’m not a pattern gal, I prefer to play with colours than with prints. I think I have no skills for it, most of my clothes are solid colour (unless my scarves that most of them are printed).
But this season I’ve been so attracted by tartan….. and I’m so in love with this pants that I think I could live in them for a week.
I’m also a big fan of leopard, so last Monday I asked myself “why not put them together”, not very close, but still in the same look.
I liked the result. But I think next time I’ll wear these pants I’ll combine them with a brighter colour.
What about you, what do you think about mixing plaid with leo?

The last couple of days we have been under a storm (and I’m choosing comfort over style)…. cold, wind, rain, humidity….. oh well…. it’s winter in the Island!

Très Chic Style Bits #6 | faux fur vest and plaid shirt....

Time for our Link Up Party “Très Chic Style Bits”.
Once again I want to thank very much to all the lovely bloggers who linked up last week and I hope you will show in this week and that some other bloggers will join us.
At the bottom of this post is the button you must click to had your link.

The temperature dropped down and I thought Friday was a good day to wear my faux fur vest. I throw under it a plaid shirt and this is the result.
Of course I wore an overcoat, because vests and I, we don’t have a good relation. I love them, but I always feel cold in my arms.
I semi tucked the shirt and add up a nice necklace (not very well seen in the pictures) to give the look a more polished vibe, since it is a bit casual.
It was windy when Hubby took the photos, as you can see in my last picture, so my hair was a mess.

Today is the anniversary of my Father’s loss.
He was always there for me through both the good times and the bad
He was always there to laugh with, or to help me when I was sad
I remember his arms around me, loved the way they always felt warm
With him by my side I completely felt no harm
I remember all the things he did to make my life worthwhile
I guess I’m missing him more than I usually do with this heart of mine

Thanks for being the best dad a girl could ever find
I still miss your smile, Dad…..
May the light be with you!!!
