HORACONFESSIONS



Shopping in London 

image

Something chic & comfortable for a day of Spring-Summer shopping in London. The denim skirt with braces gives the outfit a casual, summery touch- whilst the accessories make it easy to wear to post-shopping dinner / drinks. Red lips will brighten grey days.

Topshop long sleeve crop tee; Zara lace flats; Miss Selfridge black felt floppy hat; Storenvy denim skirt with braces; ASOS monochrome bag; ZeroUV Vintage Inspired glasses. Wear it with Topshop’s “Joyride” lip bullet. 

Beach party in Thailand

It goes without saying that a bikini is a must for any beach party. This bikini top serves as both swimsuit & top, making the daisy skirt more beach-y. The hat, satchel and jelly shoes make it a quirky & informal beach party look. 

TOTAL: £180  (Click here to view & shop this look online) 

Hat from wholesale-dress.net, jelly shoes from American Apparel; Topshop retro bikini top; an airy floral print skirt by Fashion Union, chunky gold hoops by Baulblebar; polka dot print bag by Zatchels; bee necklace by Lori’s. Wear it with Topshop’s Nails in Green Room nail polish.

Cocktails in New York

image

I love wearing playsuits, specially with a summer tan. This off-the-shoulder black playsuit is perfect for a date / girls’ night out. I like the idea of wearing it with gold-plated accessories and red nails & lips for a feminine evening look. 

TOTAL: £190  (Click here to view & shop this outfit online)

Black playsuit by Motel; H&M rings; Stella & Dot serpent bangle; ALDO clutch; high heels & arrowhead necklace from ASOS. Wear it with red nail polish (Essie nº66 Clambake) and red lipstick (“Rockabilly” lip bullet, Topshop). 

Clubbing in Ibiza 

image

If you are on a night out in Ibiza- you know it will be a long night. Ibiza brings out the hippie in me- I would go for something comfortable, airy & easy to dance in. You can wear it throughout the afternoon + evening without feeling over dressed. Try and fit your minimum needs for the night in a small clutch to avoid weighing your back down. 

TOTAL: £110 (Click here to view & shop the look)

Kimono-style Cardigan, denim shorts & sunglasses from H&M. Tie cropped vest from New Look; darling lemon clutch from Modcloth.com; and Kitty Black flats from Alternative Outfitters. Wear it with Topshop’s “Gypsy Night” nail polish. 

Sightseeing in Paris 

image

Paris is the perfect city to pick up style tips (Parisian women are effortlessly chic & elegant). I always find myself dressing up a little bit more than I usually do whenever I visit. This is what I would wear on a sunny day of sightseeing à`Paris. 

TOTAL: £195 (Click here to view & shop this outfit online) 

Topshop MOTO denim jacket; red striped cropped tee from Fashion Union; black Motel skirt; Mango handbag; Eiffel Tower ASOS necklace & J.Crew gold bangles.

My sister Mia has been living in East London for the past year & half. It is always the perfect excuse for me to meet up with her, do some catching up- and a bit shopping in the area. 

We spend our Sundays chatting whilst we hunt for vintage treasures, and sit for lunch breaks in the food market on Brick Lane. It is definitely one of my favourite Sunday plans. 

Here is my little Shoreditch Shopping guide: 

- Absolute Vintage (open all week) 15 Hanbury St 

- Beyond Retro (open all week) 110-112 Cheshire St 

- Vintage Clothing Market (only open Sundays). Downstairs from Sunday Up Market, entrance through Brick Lane Rd (Ely’s Yard, The Old Truman Brewery).

- Rough Trade Records for music- and a photo souvenir (Dray Walk, 91 Brick Lane Rd)

Good morning! 

Bershka has a monthly section online called U-BLOG: where they dedicate a whole month- in 4 videos- to a different blog. I was over the moon when they got in touch to film 4 chapters about HoraConfessions. 

I met up with the lovely Bershka team in my hometown, Barcelona, for 3 days of filming. They wanted to know how I got into blogging, my inspirations, friends…lots & lots of HoraConfessions :) 

This is the first of 4. Enjoy!
