Lillian colours



 Can you believe Saturday was the first sunny day of the year? 
Considering I live in Spain it is pretty surprising. And even so, it was not really warm but windy and a little cold. I am sure The Gentle One would have preferred to stay home in comfort clothes and reading books (poor little thing), BUT I had finished my May exams and I needed a break. Besides, my mother gave a gorgeous new purse to me last moth and it was the first real chance to use it. 

Among my multiple and very annoying manias there is one that it can be a pain in the ass sometimes:
If I get a brand new piece of clothing and, by any chance, I can´t inmediately use it for the first time I feel that the piece of clothing in questions starts looking at me with sad eyes... I really mean it. For the las thirty days the purse (which by the way is one-piece handmade collection item from a local artist) has been looking at me every single time I entered the bedroom.
 Every-single-time
Trying to sleep? Bag watching. Trying to write a post? Bag watching. Trying to watch a movie? Yeah, you get it. Too much pressure.
So? Exactly! Off we went.


I have to recognize I wasn´t specially brilliant when decided that a light poncho would be enough to keep me warm for the day. As a consequence, we had a really short walk. And this included non-stop walking to avoid freezing, which basically explains why the pictures are so bad (I know you´ll excuse me this time, but I had to choose between proper outfit pictures and keeping all my fingers!).  


 But ey, am I not lovely on this hippie-like attire?
There´s something on it that makes me think about Dark Shadows and Barnabas Collins ♥ 



So tell me darlings, are you already enjoying summer?

    1. Thank you so much! I haven´t been using purple for a long time, just because until last year or so I used to think it was an akward colour on me. So really happy to hear you like it :)

  2. I definitely get a Dark Shadows vibe from the outfit, especially with the sunglasses.

    The background in the pictures is lovely.

  3. I dont have a clue about the temperatures in Spain. but I think its warm and lovely in Sweden = 20 degrees C. the Clutch is so pretty, it is a statement piece that demands a simpler outfit I think and you have done it well. Hugs

  5. It's nice to know the pressure it's out and you have finally time for yourself, I hope you score an amazing grade.
    I totally feel the need to use the new things I buy right away, I think they feel like I don't love them enough if I don't use them, and they are very spiteful about it, so, I don't resist to the pressure and I just use them :D
    I am happy that the summer didn't appeared on his full strength here, because things can get really hot, and me + summer don't combine in any aspect of it.
    You look gorrrrgeeeus and that sunnys are perfect, I totally feel that dark seventies vibe from your outfit and it totally reminded me of Dark Shadows like you said.
    And I must say, purple it's your colour, somehow makes your skin paler and your hair darker, great combo.

    1. You totally saw my point about using new things for the first time. Somehow, I feel I betray them, ahahah...
      And thanks a lot for your really nice comment about purple and me! It was very sweet from you to put so much attention to details :)
