Recipe: Homemade Smashed Potatoes

Smashed potatoes are one of the thing I really love, so I thought I could share with you the way I do it. Of course, I'm the most oblivious thing ever so I forgot that you're supposed to peel of the skin of the potatoes, remember to do it before you put them in the water, (it tasted delicious with them tho...)

Beautifully made videos.

You know those youtube channels that you just have to subscribe and see ALL the videos in the same day after just seeing one? Well, that kind of channel is LEAF..
Full of amazingly well done videos of decor tips, fashion tips and cooking recipes that are extremely simple but they are delicious. "The Baby Blue Burger" was the video that hooked me up, and made me sit for hours looking straight into the screen just enjoying video after video.


Each and everyone of them is perfectly paired up with fun music and they just make you want to be in a little cabin near the forest, cooking and enjoying life.

"Created by bloggers Geri Hirsch of Because I'm Addicted and 
Erin Falconer of Pick The Brain, LEAF is a fresh, easy to consume, 
how-to concept covering all things... living, eating and fashion."

This is how they present themselves in all of their social networks, so I really invite you all to see their videos, try they recipes, and maybe, as me, fall in love with them and subscribe to their channel.


Do you have found any youtube channel that had the same effect on you? Which one was it?

Lots of love!

Summer outfits.


I get all excited every time it's summer because it usually comes along new and colorful music videos, amazing movies, summer hits, and mostly because of all the pretty clothes and awesome accessories made to make the best of summer.
With the summer vacations so close to us, the pictures of sunsets and beaches are all over the internet, personally, making me suffer; and one way to believe we are in one of those amazing places (even thought we're in a big city) is self tanning lotions, sexy sunglasses, colorful outfits and ice pops.

Sometimes it seems that it's getting hard to coordinate our whole wardrobe to each season, especially if you're not the kind of girl that buys a huge amount of clothes every season, but instead you try to incorporate little by little some clothes and accessories that you like and think they're pretty.
When it comes to find an inspiration for summery outfits, I see myself in the colors of the ocean when it gets by the sun, which is all day, but every hour, the coloration that the sun gives to the ocean is very different and in all kind of colors that just make me feel really happy, so I try to copy them in my outfits.
So don't hesitate to look around you when you're trying to find some outfit inspiration this summer.

In order to have an awesome summer wardrobe, this summer must haves are: a big enough collection of shorts, capri and baggy pants, crop tops, cut out shirts, and loose fitting tank tops, some fun espadrilles and light color flats. All this with a big amount of earth toned accessories, hats for the sun and some sunglasses.


Lots of love

Currently Loving: Russian Dolls Photoshoot

I don't know if I get so use to the same concepts in american magazines that when I see photoshoots of the other side of the world I get incredibly excited and end up loving almost everything they do. The example today is the "Russian Dolls" photoshoot of Vogue Russia.
In this set they work with the models Miroslava Duma, Elena Perminov, Vika Gazinskaya and Natasha Goldenberg.
We can see some Dior, Prada, Hermes and Chanel as the protagonists in the outfits.

As the photographer, Alexey Kolpakov that has made covers for BAZAAR and Marie Claire, mostly for Russia.
You may think, why is it that you are currently loving a photoshoot?, personally, one of the things I love from summer is the trend of bright colors, that we can see in the photoshoot, and also I'm a big fan of "friendship" photoshoots, you the ones that makes you thing about your friends and the night outs when you all see each other at your place to get ready and have fun. Also the outfits is in this photoshoot are really beautiful and glamorous and have inspired me a little for this summer.

Lots of love
