Outfit #15 by karenussene featuring zara shoes

Boohoo, Crop top / NewLook, Camel coat / Topshop black jeans, £41 / Zara shoes, £33 / 
MANGO drawstring bag, £46 /Brown watch / New Look, Gold jewelry / Laura Mercier lipstick, £18

To be completely honest with you guys I don't think I have bought clothe since July this year, in part because I didn't need any new clothe, I'm always in uniform and on my days off I don't go anywhere special.

Last winter (early this year) I was obsessed in finding the perfect Grey coat, I did find one at Dorothy Perkins but it was sold out in my size so the next best thing was one from F&F/Tesco. This year I'm hunting for a Camel coat and I think I found The One, is the one you see in the picture above from New Look. Super simple, no big pockets outlines, no buttons visible, clean cut, just the way I like my coats these days. 

The next item I have my eyes on is those black loafer shoes from Zara nnnhhhhhh it was love at first sight, I just don't know how comfortable they are going to be.

Outfit #14 - London Days

Outfit #14 by karenussene featuring leather bags

Lareida white long sleeve top, $110 / Zara coat / Forever New jeans, $58 / Acne Studios black leather boots / The Cambridge Satchel Company leather bag / Topshop midi ring / Silver ring, $5.74 / Wrap shawl / Victoria's Secret lips makeup / Essie nail polish, $26

EN: Hello Bananas!

Lately I've been having a bit of a blogger-block, by that I mean I don't know what to Blog or talk about sometimes over here. And the fact that I don't have my own laptop doesn't make things any easier, I can't properly settle down  on someone else's computer/laptop. Plus add to the equation the fact that I'm still looking for a job, I've sent a bunch of CVs and now I'm waiting for answers, in the mean time some have replied saying no. 

Anyways I made today I little outfit post, it's basically what I've been wearing over here in London on a everyday basis. The days are getting colder but still bearable. Jeans and a simple shirt, my pistol boots (or sneakers for a fast passe day), a light scarf, a black bag, lately I've been loving dark blue nail polish, my makeup as been very minimal but I always put something on my lips, my jewelry is also very minimal aaaannnddd to top it all of my lovely Zara coat.

Before I left Portugal I managed to buy a Zara coat that I was eyeing for some weeks. And thank God I bought it because in Portugal was 59€ but over here in the U.K. is £79. Oh yeah Zara is expensive over here in the U.K., I didn't go very often to Zara while in PT and now I don't think I can afford it over here, although they have aaammaaaazing coats, jackets, shoes, bags and accessories.

Anyways that is all for now. Wish me luck!

EN: Hello Bananas!

Here in Portugal we are still full-on Summer. Last year Fall/Autumn only starter creeping in mid-October, I have no idea how is going to be this year but anyways by that time I will be in London so things might be different over there.

Although it's crazy hot here, the Autumn/Winter Collections are already popping in stores and all I want now it's black clothes... well actually, all year long I want black clothes but when you live in a hot country with temperatures from 30º to 40º C degrees, it is hard to walk around dressed in black, it's kind of a suicidal mission.

PT: Olá Bananas!

Se vocês vivem em Portugal sabem muito bem que o Verão está longe de acabar. No ano passado o Outono só começou lá para meio de Outubro, não sei como será este ano mas até lá de qualquer das formas estarei em Londres por isso as coisas provavelmente vão ser um pouco diferentes por lá.

Embora esteja uma braza por aqui, as colecções de Outuno/Inverno já começam a aparecer nas lojas e tudo o que eu quero agora é roupa preta... bem eu na verdade quero roupa preta o ano inteiro mas quando se vive numa terra com temperaturas entre 30º a 40º C graus, é um pouco complicado andar por aí com roupa preta, é uma missão suícida.

Wishlist #1 by karenussene featuring chanel nailpolish

The Ragged Priest cotton varsity jacket, $76 / Mint green shoes / Rebecca Minkoff shoulder bag / Zara handbag / Makeup brush / Lock It Up 2.0 MODEMUSTHAVES, $19 / Chanel nailpolish

EN: Hello Bananas! You've seen this type of posts around in the BlogOspehere at some point and mine is no different.

Today I was at Fashiolista and there were a few things that I really wish I had them in my life... but I can't have them... for the time being.

What do you guys most wish for right now?

PT: Olá Bananas! Vocês de certeza que já viram este tipo de post pela BlogOesfera e o meu não será muito diferente.
Hoje passei pelo Fashiolista e houve algumas coisas que adorava ter tipooooo AGORA na minha vida... mas de momentos não posso.
O que é vocês mais gostariam de ter agora?

- Shiseido Brush - Since I saw that brush in someone's makeup tutorial I was like I NEED TO HAVE IT!

- Black Varsity7 Denva Jacket from Topshop by The Ragged Priest - It's In and it has spikes, what more can I want?

- Zara Envelope Bag - Since I saw Lilly Pebbles with one, it was like Love at first sight. Today I was in Zara but I only saw that envelope bag attached to another popular Zara bag from last year, I was like "what the hell?" but there is suppose to be a separate version as you can see in the picture and it's pretty affordable about 12,95€ I think.

- Golden Chain Necklace - Yep I want one of those too.

- Rebecca Minkoff Skylar Mini White Bag - Isn't adorable? And expensive as fudge, about 195€ (250$) FFUUUUUUU.

- Channel 583 Taboo nail polish - AMAZING! I feel like I'm looking into space.

- Mandy Mint Pumps - I haven't giving up getting a pair of shoes like this style. I can't afford Jeffrey Campbells (The Foxy's) right now and in Portugal SEASIDE has a cheaper version but the quality hhuuummm it doesn't look like it will last long.

Outfit #12 - Festival Season

Outfit #12 - Festival Season by karenussene featuring barry m

Miss Selfridge / Glamorous denim short shorts, $23 / Topshop studded shoes / Zara mini handbag / Casio silver watch, $32 / ASOS , $12 / Silver bangle, $7.76 / Meadowlark onyx ring, $355 / Barry M , $4.36 / Models Own orange nail polish, $7.78 / Racerback top

EN: Hello Bananas! We are in May and you know what that means... Festival Season has started!

Now I haven't been to a concert (like a big proper one) in freaking ages. Living where I live is a big disadvantage so I can't go as much as I wished and I always end up not having money when it's time for Festivals :/.

Anyways today's outfit is what I would where if I would go to a open spaced concert. Let's be realistic, in a concert you can end up staying up for hours, so I need flat shoes, here in Portugal during Summer time it is hot has hell and I will bring a jacket because depending where the concert is at, the nights sometimes - soooometimmeesss - can be a bit chilly.

Are you guys going to any concert/festivals this Summer?

PT: Olá Bananas! Estamos em Maio e para quem vive em Portugal sabe que a época de Festivais está mesmo ao virar da esquina.

A última vez que fui a um concerto - daqueles mesmo à séria - faz ooohhh anos. Uma das razões é por causa de onde eu vivo por isso não posso ir com muita frequência e também calha nunca ter dinheiro na altura dos Festivais :/.

De qualquer das formas o outfit de hoje é o que eu usaria num concerto ao ar livre. Sejamos realistas, num concerto uma pessoa passa horas em pé por isso preciso de sapatos rasos, aqui em Portugal vocês sabem bem como são as temperaturas no Verão e levaria um casaco porque às vezes - àààsss veeeezes - dependendo da zona, faz um briolezinho à noite.

Vocês vão a algum concerto/festival este Verão?

EN: Hello Bananas! Like I said on my last post, on the 18th of April is my Birthday. Now I don't know what I'm going to do this year, probably is going to be very low key but ideally I wish I could go out at night to a nightclub but unfortunately I ain't got money for that :(. So I'm going to dream about it lol.

So the above outfit would be my birthday outfit, so what do you think? To much neon? It all started with the dress >.<. I love those Zara shoes, I think it from their new collection and you all know by now I love my spikes and skulls haha. For my nails and lips I would use something in the shades of coral.

PT: Olá Bananas! No meu último post eu contei-vos que o meu aniversário no dia 18 de Abril. Eu não sei o que vou fazer no meu aniversário mas provavelmente vai ser algo muito calmo e simples. O ideal era sair à noite e ir para uma discoteca mas infelizmente eu não tenho dinheiro para isso :(. Por isso vou sonhar sobre o assunto lol.

A roupa em cima seria o meu outfit para o meu aniversário, o que acham? Demasiado neon? Tudo começou com o vestido >.<. Eu adoro aquelas sandálias da Zara, acho que faz parte da nova colecção e depois como já devem saber eu amo os meus spikes (picos/tachas) e caveiras haha.Para as unhas e lábios usaria algo em tons de coral.

ZARA Spring/Summer Collection 2013

EN: Hello Bananas! Like I already expressed in a few posts I can't wait for Spring and Summer to come along and by watching these type of videos (about Spring and Summer Collections) does not help! 

PT: Olá Bananas! Como já falei em outros posts meus eu mal posso esperar pela a Primavera e o Verão e provavelmente ver este tipo de vídeos (relacionado com as colecções para a Primavera e o Verão) não ajuda nada!

EN: Hi everyone! How don't know about you guys but I'm obsessed with bags. If money was no obstacle I would probably spent it most on shoes, accessories, technologic stuff and BAGS! 

As you can see bellow the picture there is the information regarding the price of these bags and most of them are no cheap >.<. I think the cheapest is the one on the bottom left from Zara it's like close to 30€.

You can see an old post of mine [here] regarding my Bags collection, none of them are Designer bags, it's all from random affordable shops, Primark, River Island, H&M, Aldo, Stradivarius, etc... but still I like them... well duh that's why I bought them haha.
Whisch one is your favourite?

PT: Olá a todos! Eu não sei como é para vocês mas eu sou obcecada por malas. Se o dinheiro não fosse problema eu provavelmente gastaria a maior parte em sapatos, acessórios, cenas tecnologicas e MALAS!

Como podem ver por baixo da imagem tem a informação dos preços de algumas das malas e a maior parte delas não são baratas >.<. Eu acho que a mais barata é a última do lado esquerdo que é da Zara e ronda os 30€.

Vocês podem ver um post antigo meu [aqui] sobre a minha colecção de malas, nenhuma delas é de grande Designers, é tudo de lojas mais que conhecidas, Primark, River Island, H&M, Aldo, Stradivarius, etc... mas mesmo assim eu gosto delas... duh fui por isso que as comprei ora essa haha.
Qual delas é a vossa favorita?

OOTD: Nrº 22 “After work… go to the Park”

Hello everyone, today´s post will be kinda different. I´m still not in the mood for Musical Fridays - read the previous post here -, even though I have a bunch of videos to share with you guys, I´m still not emotionally THERE yet...

Anyways I decided to share an outfit with you guys, something I dressed between May and June when I was still in London. 

One day after work, the sky was clean, the sun was shinning in London, such a rare thing over there. So a colleague of mine and myself decided to meet up at a Park at Highbury Islington and aahhh what a great idea! And aaahhh such a lovely area! It really got me thinking of possibly getting a room in that area. People were chilling out, reading books, playing, exercising, barbecuing, lovely!

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.

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.

My new Pink Jeans from Zara

A simple skinny belt from H&M

Some simple shirts/tops from C&A

What do you think?

P.S.: Shopping in Prague, it...is...NOT...CHEAP.... even if it at stores like, Zara, C&A, H&M..... it's not extremely expensive.. but still, I have to control myself. God I miss Primark >.< hehe.

HottU PinkU on Hypeed! :P

The Perfect Perfecto

• Zara jeans
• Zara tank top
• Random Brand Leather jacket
• Random Brand scarf
• H & M sneakers
• Claire's ring
• Costume made ring

Shinigami_U from Czech Republic

Last week I was on Hypeed Wall again >.<. And it's funny I was on "fold" number 7, which is Akuma Kanji favourite numbers, plus I'm dressed in Pink, which kind remind me of a Japanese singer called hide, that use to have hot pink hair >.< which is also one of he favourite singers (and guitarist, and for me aswell).

Little Shopping

Today I went to Lisbon with my mother, and after taking care of stuff, but after we done that we decided to hit the stores since we were in Lisbon. So we went to one of to many Shopping Malls in Lisbon, called Vasco da Gama, and I bought a couple of things.

Dar Pink Bra from H&M - It use to be 9.95€ and noow it is 5€

Black Lace Shirt/Dress from H&M - 17.95€

Yeah I know it was a bit pricy, but I couldn't let it go, I was stupid not to buy one of these when I was in the U.K.. Every store had one, and I thought that in Portugal would be the same, welll not quite.

Black short-sleeved Shirt from Zara - 7.95€ 

The second picture is a close up of the detail of the sleeve, the shirt is black, although in the picture came out grey.

White long-sleeved Shirt from Zara - 9,95€

Shampoo Corine de Farme - Karité Butter (750ml) - 4,59€

This is one thing that I'm exited to try. Me and my Mom we were looking for a Shampoo to buy. Fisrt we were looking at the Pantene's one and the big bottle of 500ml I think, was about 5,36€, and then we came across this brand, that I never saw before. The brand is Corine de Farme and is made with Karité Butter, and is for Hairs that are very dry and damaged, and it's suppose to make your hair extra soft and repair and protect. 

I will the judge of that later this week, but I do know that Karité Butter is suppose to be good for hair, and I don't think I ever tried anything with Karité Butter in it, so this is a good opportunity :p I will let you know if it really works or is jus shenanigans.
