Asos doesn't love me!

I can't believe they have lost my package neither once nor twice but THREE TIMES!!!!

(Good that their customer service is better than their carrier and I have always got a refund!

But won't I be able to buy from them again? That's a serious problem, girls...

Red heels for B*

B* from Sisters and dresses asked me the other day to look for some stunning red heels in size 7UK/40Eu... And this is what I could find. Let's see:

These by Minna Parikka are definitely my favourite, quite pricey though: (B*, estos son geniales pero caros)

These other have been my obsession during the whole winter season, still expensive though: (estos me han encantado todo el invierno y son carillos pero son preciosos)

If you want to spend less money, get these by Miss L Fire as well, amazing as well, that are now available with a good sale: (Éstos son chulos y de la misma marca y están de rebajas)

Cheaper options are these from dorothy perkins and these from ebay: (Si no eres muy delicada, éstos más baratos pueden estar bien)

And if you don't mind they are used, these are the best deal: (Si no te importa que estén llevados un par de veces, éstos son un chollo... aunque la foto sea muy mala tienen muy buena pinta!)

Hope she finds something she likes, as a woman can't be without a pair (or thousand pairs!) of red heels in her wardrobe! :)

Superb legs

If there is something I try to with every outfit, that's making my legs look longer and slimmer. I don't like my legs at all, so I try to get their best. 

Through my outfit pics, I've realized I don't like wearing mini skirts. They make me look... let's say 'not very slim'! :P Thus, I try to wear knee length skirts/dresses like this or this.

At the same time, I usually wear black tights, as they are definitely the most suitable for my plump legs. That's why I didn't like this or this.

I have also some tips to get the optical effect of longer legs, such as wearing tights which are the same colour as the shoes (like here or here), or wearing leggings in the way I wear them today:

Outfit 17th January, 2009


Of course, high heels are obligatory. And these are stunning!:

New shoes and vintage shoe clips


To sum up, I need to say that sometimes I do not follow these rules and wear white tights or flat shoes or whatever not so flattering just because I feel like and I don't mind what anyone thinks... that's me!

Needing a pair of frilled t-bar shoes

Mmmm today I woke up thinking in these...


I need them

And it has been long since I saw them for the first time, do you remember?

I do know I am shoe-aholic, but this time there's no excuse... Hey, I was dreaming with them months after our first meeting!!!

Etsy dresses

Now that you know my way on etsy, I will show you my recent favourites. Let's see:


This wonderful sailor dress (not mentioning the blury picture and the skeletal legs of the model :S) that I found a week ago is getting me crazy:

In this
plaid dress I would feel like a real 60s girl:

il_430xN.36500568



This dress has the perfect white collar and after some shortening would become a treasure in my wardrobe for sure:

il_430xN.52349544


A pale blue gingham dress is perfect for the upcoming summer:



A fifties dress must be always in my list, this one is gorgeus:



And what about this? It has the perfect shape!:

il_430xN.42450588

This dress has a lovely colour and I love it!:

il_430xN.40981321


And this is a pin up flowered dress I have been watching for long:



Do you like them? I would buy all them... "if I were a richman..."

I mention neither pricey stuff nor larger sizes... All these are good deals in a small size... I don't know how long I will be able to resist...

Zippers and leopard

Yesterday I did an exam and as soon as I had finished my comment on the Sonnet by Shakespeare (:P) I went to Zara to celebrate!

I bought this blazer with red leopard details that I think I will wear it much.

Outfit 13th February, 2009
Blazer: zara
White top with zippers: thrifted
Bag: asos
Harem pants: zara
Heels (worn with vintage bow clips): local store


By the way, I got this top for 1 euro some months ago, and now I find it's so trendy with those zippers. As for the shoes, I was told at the court today that they are so Minnie Mouse's! :))

Lately I've been quite obsessed about wearing party clothes for my daily routine. Hence, I wear strapless dresses over basic tops or I dress up in a taffeta skirt with a cotton t-shirt...

I really like the result!

Black cardi: primark
T-shirt: h&m
The SATC belt: blanco
Green taffeta skirt: tintoretto

The power of a crappy picture

I've realized that many outfits I didn't like much, they become my favourite after seeing a good picture of them. 


On the other hand, there are clothes I liked before but I decide they don't really suit me after a picture of a bad outfit.

That's what happened today. I had to take a hundred photos just to get a non disgusting shot. The conclusion? I don't like this skirt anymore. 


Outfit 10th February, 2009

Top: bershka
Suspenders: h&m
Skirt: h&m
Tights: calzedonia
Oxford shoes: carolina boix


Hey, but I still love the blazer!:

Dear reader,

Eyeliah, who is so far my unique reader as I've kept this blog secret, asked me some time ago for some tips so as to find good vintage on etsy. I really don't know what's the difference between searching on etsy or on ebay, but I will try to tell her (you) my experience.

When I search for something on etsy, first of all I select 'vintage: tags, titles'. Then I feel at home, let's vintage anita! (that's what I say to myself, LOL).

Secondly, I try to be less restrictive than in an ebay search: I don't look for '50s vintage dress full', I write just 'dress' instead. Don't worry, on etsy there won't be 160,000 results if you write dress without any adjective.

Thirdly, I don't select sort by price, as there is no bidding and the most interesting things available will probably be the latest listed.

After that, whenever I see an interesting item, I link to the shop/seller in order to see everything he/she has available, just in the same way I would do on ebay.

I really love etsy because I don't have to bid or wake up at 4 am to win a bid in the last minute! No more stress, that is the goal. Besides, people is much more friendly and prices could be (not always) more reasonable.

Just with these rules I have recently found amazing items like this doctor bag:

Any question, darling? ;)

Platforms and bows? Mine!

Some time ago I fall in love with these:

I got mad as soon as I realized they were reduced from 79,90 to 31,90...
Of course I couldn't help getting them. They are mine mine mine!! :)))))))))

Meanwhile, I go on posting my outfits and details on flickr. Here are the latest:
