Back on track

It's been almost a year since I did not blog. I missed the blogosphere, checking my favourite blogs and interacting with readers and bloggers from every part of the world. I decided finally to get back, it's something that I really like, I missed the fact i could express myself the way I want. A lot of stuff changed since my last blog, good stuff, bad stuff, interesting stuff.. I'm writing right now to give you an update about my life, what i experienced, how I grew and what I expect now from life or more the way I want my life to be. I've been single now for 9 months, now after a relationship that lasted almost 7 years, it's been rough but liberating; I had to choose do I want to live my life the way I want or do I have to stick to immature choices that i made when I was a teenager. After discovering that he cheated in me and after going thru the whole humiliation in front of every person that i know, I finally realized (really quick though after a couple of weeks)  that it was actually a blessing, I had the chance to choose my path, my life, my future instead of just do what I'm supposed to do. I started going out more often, started socializing again just for the sake of it, not trying to pick up boys or something. Almost (actually it was really it) I was discovering myself again, ,with him i felt trapped, bitter and with no clear ambitions. Now 9 months after, I can really assess what I've done with my life. I focused more on my career, I got promoted now I support the marketing and sales operations for the company that I work for , actually I made the choice to skip the financial career that I was predestined to for IT, as I decided to be single and to embrase my new life even after the pityful senario that he tried to make out to convince me to take him back, I'm now eager to get the most of the life that is given to me, I'm believing in myself again, I'm believing  in the bright future that I will have.
Now to the good news, I have a job that is so time consuming and so interesting that I'm feeling that anything is possible, I visited the US for the first time and went to San Francisco yeyeah!

I'm trying to get back on track and start working on my thesis again. I hope I can get that done, it's not that easy i have to admit that but I'm so hopeful and optimistic about my future.

Back to fashion talk now, I have to start doing fashion blogging again and it's not that simple to take outfits shoots without help (aka boyfriend) but I will start taking pictures of the outfits (not the worn version until i come up with a solution).
So I'm hoping to get really serious about that.
I'll leave ya'all with some of my favourite pictures of SF

Haight Ashbury and then right in front of the Dead Gorgeous House

I hope you will hear from me really soon!

It's CORAL not pink!

Hi guys how are you doing, i'm staying at home today  it's been raining all day long for three days i did not manage to get some nice pictures and since i normally go home late (when it's almost dark) the weekend is my favourite time to get some blog pictures. Anyway this skirt is my favourite item for the moment, actually it was a size 14 vintage dress that i transformed into a maxi breezy CORAL skirt ( technically it was my mum who did it but the idea was mine), so i got this one for the equivalent of 2$. I'm obssessed with it, i could wear it everyday and it coral ( yeah don't let the pictures mislead you it's a nice vibrant coral color).

So tell me are you into the reworked vintage pieces or not at all?

I hope you guys have a great weekend!!!

Lots of love and fashion :)

Bloggers Do It Better: White Out

Hi guys, it's been a while I really missed you, but i was really really busy, my finals are in two weeks and with that new job i have a giagantesque workload but i promise (i hope) i will be more available in 3weeks and it will be just in time to style spring and summer outfits.

So i love challenges and today i decided to take the Bloggers Do It Better: White Out Challenge, actually my outfit wasn't that white because the rain did not stop yesterday and it was a little difficult to wear white pants or skirt. Anyway this all white trend is really on of my favourites this season, actually white is my favourite color and it's just perfect for summer and spring.

Bye girls and have a nice week!!!

Fashion Week Tunis 2011

Hi guys I know I've been away a long time but i was gathering goodies for you, I don't know if you are aware of that but it's our third edition of Fashion Week here in Tunisia, and the international fashion community was waiting for this event post-revolution and it was GREAT.

We had the chance to meet amazing people too, journalists from the NY Times and an editor from the ELLE France who proposed to us an internship in PARIS can you imagine that!!!

Foxy Maxi

Hi guys I know i've been away for some days but I'm bag with a lot of new looks and ideas, I'm sporting the maxi dress for Everybody, Everywhere because I missed the Polka Dots challenge and i was craving to participate on one of theit challenge, i voted for the pencil skirt though ( several times) because i think that pencil skirts are a very winter-y look and we still have the time to wear and style our maxis for spring and summer.

Anyway maxi is one of my top favourite trends of the moment so comfy and girly and you have that instant boho chic look that i looove!!!!

Office Life Here I Coooooome!!!!

Hi guyyyys it's been a while, i really missed you all (YES I missed you we are friends now). I was really busy, normally i would have  my mid-semester break from school but that means that i have to go to the office everyday from 9-6 but it's cool i like it over there, it's very laid-back. Anyway, since i don't have to run from school to work these days, i decided to go for the whole corporate look thing, i kinda like it: the fancy button-up and the elegant pants (aka jeans are not elegant), i might get used to it who know?!

So you tell me you like this outfit on me, are you afn of this kind of outfits. Actually i'm much of a jeans girl but i like changing, discovering new things in fashion; like i used to say that i'll never ever wear blazers or flares (we've all been there) and now it's like my favourite FAVOURITE Trend.

Just a little pic for the road, it's my younger brother he's a student pilot i'm so proud of him, he's really one of my best friends and in the top 5 of my favourite people in the world!

Bye guys, hope you'll have a great weekend, i'm planning to have a nice cosy weekend but we'll see.
Lots of love and positive vibes!!!!

For Japan With Love

Today I'm participating to the Bloggers Day of silence (You can check it here), so that means that i won't be blogging today, a little gesture of respect for the grief of the Japanese People. The aim is just raise awareness and respect andto communicate the message that the people of Japan our brothers from across the world need us, need our help, our prayers; we should really acknowledge the devastation going on in Japan and do something to help them. Here's my approach if you can donate it do it even little amounts of money or clothes will help and if you have already a lot going on please pray for them they need a lot of that too.
I hope that you all are safe and we should try to be grateful for what we have every day that God makes, frateful for the food in the table evreyday, for the roof over your head,for our family, for our friends, for our freedom, for our health.
