It’s been over a year since I started writing this blog and the concept I have been highlighting the most is the #30wears challenge. For the newcomers, it consists of wearing all your clothes 30 times or more before you discard them. It also applies to every new garment, before arriving to the till, you should wonder if you would be able to wear it at least 30 times, if the answer is no, then you shouldn’t buy it.

The best fashion accessory to any of your looks is a great and healthy hair!! I haven’t carried long hair since I was in high school. For many many years I used to wear a pixie style (many years before it was trendy), which most people think that flatters me a lot! Lately, is growing, and I am trying to hold myself and letting it long. But here comes the issue, since I have never carried long hair, I don’t really know how to take care of it and lately was looking frizzy and unhealthy, as you can see in my previous post. I’ve started using my sisters conditioners and serums, but they were just a momentary repair, plus I was concerned about how sustainable and healthy those products are. So I tried the traditional way and the results are AMAZING!!
Polka dots are par excellence the most Spanish print, and fortunately are on trend this season! Since my move back to Spain I feel like including part of my country iconography in my looks, and this print is a great way to go. I love how versatile polka dots are, you can either wear them in a very casual way, such as the outfit I am wearing today, or give them an upgrade for a smart look, as the one I was wearing last summer for a wedding, as you can see here! This season polka dots are everywhere, they have taken over the street style, as it was predicted during the SS18 catwalks.
Until not that long ago, wearing second-hand clothes in Spain used to have very negative connotations. Actually, old people still things that you should wear brand-new clothes, and find hard to understand that you appreciate something that used to belong to someone else. Luckily, young people, mainly in big cities such as Madrid and Barcelona, are changing their minds and start consuming preloved clothes and appreciating the history behind those garments. Since the habits are changing, amazing vintage spots are popping here and there.
Since I started this blog, my awareness about the plastic epidemic has grown. I try to avoid its use as much as possible. One of the easiest way to prevent its consumption is through our grocery shopping habits, not just escaping the plastic bags by the supermarket’s till, also throughout the purchase process. In the big supermarkets most the items are packed, making it very hard to avoid plastic. Actually, it’s being proof, that when implementing plastic-free policies in the supermarkets, such as charging for the plastic bag, the use of plastic at the till reduce, while the thin plastic bags available at the fruit & veggies section increase… Which is so sad!

Hi there! I am writing this post while sitting in the garden under the sun and just realized that the spring weather is almost here, at least in Majorca!! So I think this is the perfect time to review which are the wardrobe essentials that you should never throw away, whether you have a walk in closet or a capsule wardrobe. Today, I want to go through the 3 top pieces that are indispensable. Taking good care of these pieces can save us many dollars in the long run because they are timeless!
This week I have a challenge for you! I want you to go through your wardrobe and make sure that you have at least three different combinations for everyone of your garment. It might take a lot of time, but it is a great exercise to edit your wardrobe and become fully aware of all the clothes you already own and save yourself time long term!
Hi guys! I just come back from Ibiza and I am so excited to share with you my long weekend on the island. Ibiza is one the biggest holiday destination in Europe, known for its legendary wild parties and their hippie residents, but visiting the island during the winter season is a completely different experience! The place is quiet and peaceful, actually most restaurants and shops are close, and during this time of the year the experience revolves around the nature and the energy of the place.
