EN: Now that I finally have my Parka, actually not only one but two, now I'm on a hunt for some boots. I have some mid and high heels boots but those are not always practical for everyday basis, so I'm looking mainly for flat boots that are also good for cold and rainy days in London.

Any suggestions? Something that is also affordable if possible. Ideally I would love a pair of Dr, Martens boots but they cost around £80 to £100 :(.

I basically bought products that I was already familiar with, maybe next time I have to re-buy anything I will try a different brand but like they say "If it works, why change?".

Boots for Fall/Winter 2012/13 by karenussene featuring high heel boots

Alaïa high heels, €1.440 / Miu Miu platform boots, €680 / Shoes / Platform boots, €115 / Leather boots, €140 / Leather shoes, €96 / Black leather boots, €70 / River Island shoes, €94 / Dune wedge booties, €150 / Ankle booties / ASOS high heel boots, €52 / LESILLA on-line boutique / Home page / Dr Martens Union Jack 8 Eye Boot BLACK SMOOTH - Doc Martens Boots and..., €135 / Boots shoescribe / I loved this at Fashiolista! Do you love it?

EN: When Fall/Autumn comes along I just think of BOOTS! I just simply love boots. And one of my main problems is that the boots that I  have eventually water filters in, even if they are from Bershka, Stradivarius, Zara, Seaside whateva, okei I know they aren't necessarily rain boots, they are just boots... but sometimes it really pisses me off. 

Soooo I really need to invest in a good pair of boots. Now on the collage that I made not all of those boots will be good for rainy days, specially the suede ones and some of them are ridiculously expensive but still they look nice hehe. 

One pair of boots that I've been wanting for yeeeaarrsss are the Dr Martens ones and when I say years I mean yeeaarrss, like 10 years already. In a way it's my fault that I end up wanting quantity over quality but also when I have some money it always ends up going for other stuff with a bigger priority. But I haven't given up, one day I will have a pair or two :P.

Which pair is your favourite?

PT: Quando o Outuno chega eu só penso em BOTAS! Eu amo botas. Um dos meus problemas é que a maior parte das minhas botas entra água -_-, sejam elas da Bershka, Stradivarius, Zara, Seaside etc... okei eu sei que elas não são necessariamente botas para a chuva, sõa simplesmente botas... mas ehpah fico P da vida.
Então preciso mesmo de investir no bom par de bota. Agora a collage que eu fiz nem todas as botas são boas para os dias de chuva, principalmente as de camurça e algumas são estupidamente caras mas são giras na mesma hehe.
Um par de botas que eu quero à aaanooooos são umas das Dr Martens e quando digo anos é mesno aannooosss para aí uma década já. De uma maneira a culpa é minha que acabo por querer quantidade sobre qualidade mas também muitas das vezes quando calha ter dinheiro algo acontece e então tenho que estabelecer as minhas prioridades.
Mas ainda não desisti de um dia  comprar um par ou dois :P.
Qual é o vosso par favorito?

No7 Foundation Match Made Service

 Hello everyone! Today I bring you great news! At least for my followers from the U.K. and Ireland.

So there’s this brand in the U.K. and Ireland called Nº7 and it’s sold at a drugstore called Boots. I guess you can consider Nº7 as a house brand from Boots.

Below you can see the videos that will explain in more detail what’s this post all about, but in short sentences basically they reformulated their foundation formula PLUS they have this machine that takes pictures of your skin to help you find the perfect foundation colour to your skin tone! I wished that every drugstore/makeup stores had a device like this.

How many girls out there has ever gone to a shop and picked up a foundation or even asked for help to the Ladies that work there and then once you go home and use it has nothing to do with your skin tone? *hands up* Exactly!

I really hope this will helps women find their perfect match, I can wait to one day be able to try this device. I currently have one foundation from Nº7 is the Beautifully Matte in the colour 30 Almond, it’s perfect for women with oily skin, for me is a full on foundation. I haven’t used much on the last 2 months just because most of the time I’m at home and even though is good for oily skin I don’t think many foundations can deal with 40 Degrees Celsius heat from Portugal.

Anyways I will leave you now with Lisa Eldridge, she is a Makeup artist and a Creative Director for Nº7/Boots (Check her channel on Youtube she’s amazing! And I think she also works with Channel, or at least I seen her there on their channel).

New: Shoes #2

 EN: Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing with you a new pair of boots that I bought a couple of weeks ago at a store called New Look. Me and my friend Zuzana after going food shopping, we made the "error" of going to New Look XD. And... there they were, only two sizes available and one of them was mine. They were originally about £34.99 and I bought them for £18. Burgundy "suede" and golden glitter heels, quite an odd mix right? But I fell in LOVE with them! I probably have to wait until September to wear them but then again here in London most of the days are so crappy that I could probably wear them here already.

PT: Olá a todos! Hoje trago-vos um par de botas que comprei a um par de semanas atrás numa loja chamada New Look. Eu e a minha amiga Zuzana depois de termos ido ao supermercado comprar comida, nós fizemos o "erro" de passar na New Look. E... ali estavam elas, disponíveis em apenas dois tamanho um deles era o meu. Elas eram originalmente cerca de £34.99 Libras e comprei-as por £18 Libras. "Camurça" em Bourdeaux e um salto com glitter dourado, uma mistura um pouco estranha né? Mas eu apaixonei-me por elas! Provavelmente terei de esperar até Setembro para poder usar-las mas vai na volta aqui em Londres a maior parte dos dias são tão manhosos que provavelmente poderia usa-los por cá já.

New in the Shoes Department #1

My black Pistol Boots from Select.
I needed a new pair of practical heel boot in black, and incomes the Pistol Boots. I love them so much! In the begining I could only spot very expensive ones like from TOPSHOP for like 70 t 80£ pppffffffff and then I found these one from Select for like 18£. SOLD!

My Minty Pumps from Primark. Do I really need to say anything? They are cute, freaky high, they are in these season's colour and only for 12£. Ooohhh Primark Primark... I wanted to buy ALL OF THE SHOES IN EVERY FREAKING COLOUR... but I can't I can't....

And last but not least, these Silver "Stilettos" shoes.  Yes they have a red  sole but no, they are not Christian Louboutin lol they are from Select. They were only 10£ >.<. The reason why I still have the white price sticker, is in case I want to change them for a size up, I have 14 days t exchange. No worries I will take it off.

Soooo do you like any of them? I know I do XD

Can't stop thinking about you...

Last Sunday I went to a MASSIVE Shopping Mall called Westfield, this one is locate next to the Stradford, and over there there is a shoe shop called Office and what did I see on the window of the shop? LITAS from JEFFREY CAMPBELL! O_O I died!

I tried one foot of the Spiked Litas and I fell in Love <3. I already liked them, but now that I finally try it, the will of wanting a pair became bigger! Aaaaahhhhhhh!
Some girls LOVE the Litas other HATE the Litas, I am on the Love side, it reminds me of the 70's platform shoes and by the way the 70's are my favourite decade specially when it comes to Fashion wise.
Aaaahhhhh what to do,what to do >.

Quick post! #5

On my way to London.

Hello everyone! Yes I’m still alive, and No I didn’t forget about you guys :).

Soooooo yeah as you know I’m in London, so far so good. I arrived on Saturday, got my 2 bags, nothing was lost :D. I was so tired, a family member of mine picked me up, damn talk about a big journey, all the way from London’s Heathrow airport (on one side of London) till basically the other side of the city pppfffff. That same day that I arrived I went later on to a Bday of someone, ggeeezzzz, you can imagine how dead I was.

On Monday it was my first day at the company, learned a few things, and now I’m doing it. The people there are nice, the office is quite small compared to my internship experience in Prague. But is the same vibe in terms of international people (or at least European).

November's Shopping

Hello everyone! Wow I can't believe we are in December already, isn't that crazy? It's like I say, since the year 2000 came, time feels it flies. Last year by this time, I was preparing my bag for my journey to Mozambique - f.y.i. I will also do a resume of my vacation there - in the meantime I spent 9 months in Prague, now I'm back to Portugal.

Anyways, as we know we are going trough a crises moment in our country - Portugal - financially speaking, so I can't buy everything I want :/. But still I managed to buy a few things this month, things that I actually need it, and here they are.

Ear warmers from Claire's, I been wanting these for a while, and when I saw this one in Black at Claire's "I gotz to haz it!

 

October's Shopping

Hi everyone,

These are a few things that I received and bought last month :).

This Sandals I actually received them in September. It was a gift from my mother, I only wore them twice before the cold weather kicked in. I think that are suppose to be from Seaside.

Morning Desires #1

Good morning everyone. Before I rush up for work... again -_-... here's a little post.

In one of the Zara's in Barcelona (I don't if there are more, but probably YES! lol), there was a blazer, with this same colour "yellow mustard", and it was love at first sight. It had the shape, format, model, whateva you wanna call it, of a blazer, but it was for Winter. So is not the exact item that you see on the image below... the  blazer that I saw is shorter in lenght, but for some reason I can not find it on the Zara website o_O. So I used this image just for you to have an idea of the colour. My interest for yellow mustard, actually started last Fall/Winter, I don't remember if I saw something that colour, or just simply woke up with the idea "hhuummmm yellow mustard... would go so nicely with some dark blue denim jean, or or or with camel or dark brown huuuummm mmuuussstaaarrddd *Hommer Simpson's face :D*". For a while I was one a hunt for a like a mustard scarf, but I couldn't find anything... well at least that I could afford.

And then you have the new model of Jeffrey Campbell's, Lita... this man is a machine >.< I wonder if he will ever stop doing them.

Shhoo shhooo shhoooeeess... whishlist.

 Hello everyone, today I was doing my daily Blog drive-through, and I went to Sassi’s Blog “Asterisque” and on her post she had these yummy yellow shoes, I was like “wow where did she got those?”, I thought they were gonna be very expensive but not really they were 55,50€ :O, not bad hey? The following shoes and boots can be bought at Nelly.com .

Linnea Shoes/Lundberg EUR 55,50

It's here... it's curvy... and ready to make another shoe frenzy

You probably have noticed around some famous shoes/ankle boots called Lita from Jeffrey Cambpell. Well nooooowwww Lita has a sister and her name is Lana :P.

Have you seen them? The first time I saw them was on Lookbook.nu, a girl wearing them, and I was like... hummm those look like Lita, but different. Later on that same day I saw in another Blog talking about them, so they actually belong to Jeffrey Campbell.

I admit I’m not toooo crazy about the curved heels, but I’m okay with that piece on the back of the heel being cut of, but Hey maybe it depends on the type of outfits that you wear it. I think that my favourites so far are the Brown Lana's, and the Beige and Khaki Fab Lana's.

What do you think about them? Yey or Ney, or you simple just prefer the Lita?

Lana Black and Lana Brown

Studded Wellies

This last week my friend Yuiko was here in Prague for 4 days. When touring the city we went to a store called Paul Frank, although I think only the 1st floor has things from Paul Frank, the downstairs I don't think is P.F., had a loooott of studded clothing, jeans, jackets, boots, sneakers bla bla bla. And as you can see from the sole of these wellies they say Decathlon (Made in Portugal). I've been to Decathlon in Portugal, and it's mostly sport stuff, so I guess in this case "someone" imported these wellies from Portugal and studded them.

So anyways, Yuiko after much (or not so much) debating, of either to buy it or not, she finally bought them, and honestly I'm thinking of buying them aswell >.< aaaahhhhhh! There are other wellies with different studs at the shop. You can pick silver or golden, or rounded bubble shaped, or like these one from the picture.

Yey or Nay? Finsk Boots

Hello galls.

So yeah another post about boots, sorry >.< I really like boots hihi.

Another pair of boots they I've been seeing in some Fashion Blogs, are these boots from Finsk. What do you think? Yey or Nay? 

I really would like to try on these boots, I would probbaly fall as soon as a gave my first step lol.

The IT Boots of 2010's Fall/Winter - Lita from Jeffrey Campbell

Some of you may have notice, other maybe not, but lately I've been seeing these boots in a lot of Fashion Blogs they are called Lita from designer Jeffrey Campbell. They cost about $159,95 , the heel I think is suppose to be almost 13cm high, and the sole almost 6cm. That's pretty high :p
