She's got the blues...

Hello,

The countdown for Corfu has officially started, so this week I'll have to put together the last details of the trip. I'm mostly concerned about my luggage (I have a huge problem with over-packing, I know nothing about moderation...Oups!). Me and 3 other friends will be traveling by car, which means we'll have limited space for the luggage...I guess we'll have to see how that goes...:)!

Between packing, doing laundry, shopping for bathing suits and other stuff we need, getting overly excited, I finally decided to take my favorite blue dress for a walk on Sunday. It was a perfect summer day, the weather was just beautiful!

This dress is Mario by Marius Musat (I'm a big fan of his clothes, especially the dresses) and I think it has the most amazing shape and color. Just because I had to walk a lot, and I'm not really a heels person, I combined it with my trusty Pull&Bear wedges and matching braided brown belt.

There is something extra special about the clutch bag, though, that I really want to share: it is vintage, it's actually Pop's Grandmother's clutch bag, that she was kind enough to offer to me as a present. I love vintage clothing items because they all tell a story and have an old epoch sweet mysterious scent!

Lately, I'm all about little DIY projects :), so I thought I would give it a try with this clutch bag: its simplicity allowed me to play with it. I had this beautiful colored butterfly brooch from Zara, but it was broken. I wanted to fix it the minute I broke it, but never got to until last week. I thought that attaching it to the bag would make it look sophisticated, yet fun, and I was very pleased about the result.

Now, with the weekend being over, I seem oddly relaxed and happy. It probably has to do with the fact that it's my last working week before my vacation! I definitely need a reality check  if I want to get any work done this week :))!

Love,

Mamalina
