Army Camouflage pattern back in style?

Hello Everyone!

If you tend to visit Fashion Blogs you have probably seen people wearing or at least talking about the Army camouflage pattern that has returned to the Fashion World.

Now like anything in life, some people like it some people hate it. Personally I love it! This love didn't appear overnight. Some of my close friends probably already know this but I am a big Army camouflage Lover! Up until recently I had like 3 tops and a 1 pair of like mid leg pants, which I end up giving to other people because it didn't fit me anymore and I never thought that this style would come back in style. BUT I did manage to keep at least two things that I can recall, an Army style necklace that a dear friend gave me like aaages ago (which currently I'm not sure where it is lol) and this "half" jacket from Stradivarius. I have this jacket since like October/November of 2005. So it's about 7 years old! WOW! When I saw it at the store it was like "Love at First sight", at the time I was rrreeeaalllyy into Army camouflage pattern and anything with the Khaki colour on it. So I bought it, used it a lot during 2005/06 and then he just stayed in my wardrobe for years!

What I have seen other people wearing is more like longer and big/oversized jackets, not quite this style of my jacket.

My Handbag Collection #1

These are my bags. Now mind you, I didn't buy all of them in one day lol. Most of the times I buy one/two bags per year but for some reason when I'm in the U.K. is when I buy more bags... damn you Primark.

Oh and these pictures were taken when I was still in Portugal, like last December or something.

Let's start the presentation!

Brands? That's irrelevant ... sometimes

In my opinion and attention this is just my opinion, sometimes brands are overrated and over priced for no reason. When I buy clothes or accessories, I don't go for the brand I go for the fact if it is beautiful and if it looks good on me or not... And I understand that like a pair of shoes in some cases the more expensive they are the better they are, and I say this comparing some boots for the rainy days that I can but from a local shop or a Chinese store that I might pay 25€ won't be necessarily as good as a pair of Dr.Martens or Timbaland boots.

Anyways today I want to show you something. Last December when Sales season arrived to Portugal, I went shopping with my mother to down town Lisbon (Baixa do Chiado) and the first shop I get in was one called WS2/W52 and I noticed that they had capes, which I've been "dying" to have one. The original price was 39.99€ and I bought it for 24.99€. Immediately when I saw the price tag, it reminded me of the one from Stradivarius. I mean just look the picture above, on the left is the tag from WSA/W52 from the jacket that I bought and on the right a tag from Stradivarius (that I asked a friend if I could have it for the sake of this post lol)... I meaann obvious much?

And then the thing that made me ROFLMAO, after I left WS2/W52 I entered a Stradivarius store... and what do I see THE SAME CAPE!!!!! WTF! The same EXACT design! And they were selling then for the Sales price of 29.99€ pppffffff fff ffff! 

This is not the first time that I have seen this. A few years back they passed in the News in Portugal that there was some Chinese shops selling clothes that looked exactly the same as some certain shops. For example, the same week I discovered that, I was in Bershka and I saw this shirt that had a skull... then a few days later I went to my local Chinese shop and I found theee ssaammmeee exact shirt, the only difference was the "brand" tag fffuuuuuuuu.

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.

Burgundy and Mustard

I never been a girl that follows colours trends, in my case I've been in Love for a long time with the colour Burgundy, since my Nu-Metal+Pseudo-Gothic phase, and the colour Mustard since last year’s Winter, when I saw a picture of a girl with a mustard scarf, it was love at first sight. I tried at that time to find something in the shades of mustard that I liked, but no success.

This year Burgundy and Mustard are all over the place, and they also go nicely with each other.  Here are some items that I like in those colours.
