Our trip to Ibiza only lasted for a few short days, but we made the most out of them by visiting about 3 or 4 beaches with our little scooter. Our first stop was Las Salinas, an area in the south of Ibiza with large fields of salt. The beaches are quite pretty but very busy,…

Ibiza Old Town
Hola amigos! Back in July I found out that I would start my new job in a few weeks already, and I realized that I hadn’t planned any holidays yet! The boyfriend and I were discussing this topic over breakfast in one of our favourite coffee bars, when he suddenly came up with the crazy idea to…

Read MoreFriday Favourite: weird white shirt
There’s nothing like a good white crisp shirt, right? They are however hard to find! I have collected a few precious shirts throughout the years, but it seems like there’s always a better one, a whiter one, a crispier one to discover. Today’s shirt-wishlist material consists of this pretty weird white wrap shirt with awkward-length sleeves.…
Read MoreDressing up like a 6 year old
When I was just a mini-P, I absolutely adored Barbie. I wanted her to have her fabulous long hair, her cool gadgets and especially her impressive outfits! Most dresses were sugar coated pink, super puffy and very glittery, which had absolutely nothing to do with what I used to wear as a kiddo climbing trees with my…

Ciao amigos! Remember that back in July I went on a lovely fashion trip to Sardinia with PINKO?

Lately I really am catching up with my feminine side! Give me dresses, cleavage, skirts or high heels: I’ll wear it. Proof can be found here, here and here!

Nope, I didn’t die in the heatwave last week! My reasons for being MIA are far more obvious: I needed a break.
