Classic little ol' white blazer

 

 Long time no see, I had various excuses to take a break from blogging, first there was the rainy days, then I had to pack my bags for a short holiday to my parents, then when I got here, I wasn't in much mood to take photos until yesterday when the weather was actually very nice, apart from the agressive wind. 

So while I was doing my errands, hence the flat shoes, I took some photos here and there. I don't even remember the last time I saw so many lilac trees in this town, they are everywhere! So, dreamy photos were necessarry and I had to take home a few branches, as I am naturally obsessed with these flowers. 

 Right, preparations for our very delayed Easter holiday are in the making, we have three different cakes, because tomorrow is also my birthday - yey! If we're not going to faint of too much sugar, then we'll be extremely lucky! 

 Happy weekend guys!

 How is the three-day weekend going so far for you? 

Those that celebrate 1st May as our Labor Day which ironically, is a work-free day, are probably celebrating somewhere out of town, or even out of country. 

I chose to stay in because I don't necessarilly celebrate Labor Day, but my birthday. So this Friday I turned 25, which to some people is quite a big deal, but I am not sure exactly how to see it. I'm in my mid twenties and mostly I feel a bit scared that I will reach a certain point in which I'll probaly think that I haven't accomplished as much as I wanted to. 

But, let's not talk about scary things. I actually did something pretty cool on Friday morning, I went paragliding (not sure that is the correct way to say it) as you might have noticed on Facebook here. It was a birthday present and I loved it! The thrilling sensation, the rush, the strong wind carrying you around the air - it was amazing and I wish I could do it everyday! When I went back to the city I felt as if I just landed from a different world and couldn't go back to my usual activities. Strange.

 Then I made some appetizers and mojitos, we played an intesive game of Monopoly - in which I failed miserably - and ended the day, or rather the night, with a smile on my face. 

No hard-core party, not a huge guest list, that is not really my style (unless it's a surprise party - then I don't mind, haha) I was surrounded by lilac flowers and great company, which is more than enough.

 I hope you all had a great time these past few days!

The Name Necklace

 I am sure most of you who watched "Sex and the City" know about the "Carrie necklace", the cute, delicate golden necklace she was so attached to. Ever since then, I always wanted a necklace with my name to wear it proudly, it would made me feel somehow unique, even though I am sure I share my name with others out there; but you don't see many wear necklaces like these the way you see Zara or H&M hanging around one's neck.
The lovely people over at One Necklace contacted me and were kind enough to send me such a necklace. I got this model, because ornaments are my thing, I got to choose the length and the type of chain also. I didn't choose my real name because I rarely use it and I thought Lola was a great choice because it's simple and I always sign my emails with it.
You can imagine my joy when I received it (quite fast acutally) and I opened the beautiful box it came in. Now I can scratch another item from my long whishlist, hooray!

Blue painted rain..

 
Not much of a fancy outfit today. I felt bored and uninspired; sometimes I get this feeling in certain days when fashion does not excite me. The weather was chilly and it seemed it was about to rain so my plan to wear a cute dress was ruined. So I wore something blue, put my new shoes on and a bling-bling around my neck to feel interesting and there I go. Today I couldn't help myself and I bought something way too delicious, I can't wait to show you! (which means - I can't wait to brag). I also indulged myself with three huge bouquets of lilac - my favorite flower, so naturally I wanted to share with you their beauty. So little time until my birthday, I am freaking out!

New in my wonders

I wanted to show you my latest purchases, a few of them were gifts for my birthday, such as that bracelet and the amazingly colored scarf. The shirt has a impecable fabric and I am not sure from where it is since it was thrifted. The headband is from a local little store and the bag brought all the way from Portugal.

H&M top, Alice and Sara headband and handmade hair pin.

And of course here is your lilac of the day, hehe.

Have a great Sunday darlings!

I made wine from the lilac tree

Yes, I am obsessed with lilac, I take tons of photos, so I guess until it's time is over, I won't stop posting photos of it. Anyway, the outfit is quite simple but I am thinking a '70s vibe though I am not a huge fan of this trend, still, I was in a somewhat mood for it.
Can't stay long, catch you soon dearies!
