The Tangerine necklace


New in, kindly gifted by oNecklace... Read my thoughts on it!

Uma nova aquisição, oferecida pela oNecklace... Continuem a ler para saber o que acho!


When oNecklace ofered to send me one of their pieces, I knew right away exactly what I wanted ... One saying "Tangerine"! I love how it's so personal, but at the same time not too personal - as it's not my name and everything. Actually, it's funny how some of my friends have started to pick up on Tangerine as a nickname: they'll say "Hey Tangerine, how are you??" ... For real! :) Funny how something so specific as my blog can transfer into my personal life, right?

Regarding the necklace itself... You can choose to have it in either silver or gold - I obviously went for the latter, a kind of evident choice if you consider my never-ending obsession with delicate gold jewelery - and in a tone of different fonts. I thought this one was cool as it somehow resembles the fonts in my blog! As for shipping, I could not be happier. It comes in its on little box and arrives on time!

I've really been wearing it non-stop... And my favourite way to do so is pairing it with other necklaces - my favourite combo being the one I showed you in the picture above! I feel it adds such a special and personal touch to the plainest of outfits, not to mention that you can wear it with pretty much everything and it looks great. So, did you like this piece?? Let me know!

Quando a oNecklace se ofereceu para me enviar uma das suas peças, eu soube logo exactamente o que queria... Um colar que disesse "Tangerine"! É pessoal, mas não demasiado pessoal - já que não é o meu nome. Se bem que em rigor, alguns dos meus amigos começaram a apanhar o Tangerine e a usá-lo como alcunha: algo do génereo "Hey Tangerina, tudo bem??"... A sério! :) É engraçado como algo tão específico como o meu blog se pode inserir na minha vida pessoal, não acham?

Quanto ao colar em si... Podem escolher entre tons prata e ouro - eu obviamente escolhi o último, uma escolha evidente se tivermos em conta a minha obsessão com delicada joelharia dourada - e num monte de fontes diferentes. Eu achei esta muito gira, de algum modo lembra-me os tipos de letra que utilizo aqui no blog! Quanto ao shipping, não podia estar mais satisfeita. Veio protegido nesta caixinha e chegou dentro dos prazos.

Tenho mesmo andado a usar sem parar... E a minha forma favorita de combinar é juntá-lo a outros colares - sendo a minha combinação preferida a da imagem que vos mostro em cima. Gosto mesmo... Por um lado dá um toque tão especial e pessoal aos conjuntos e por outro podem usar com praticamente todas as roupas possíveis e imagináveis que fica sempre bem! Então, por aí gostaram? Contem-me tudo!

What I wore this Summer


A throwback post today, remembering what I wore this Summer... Almost forty posts!
Saying goodbye, so we can finally get started with the Fall outfit posts! Do read more!

Um post de recordações hoje, a relembrar o que andei a vestir este Verão... Quase quarenta posts!
Vamos dizer adeus, para agora começar finalmente nos posts de conjuntos outonais?! Leiam mais!



The Summer started out chilly, as a leather jacket and loafers were still needed at the beggining of June... Link for post here.

But the loew temperatures didn't stop me from trying to bring some Summer into my outfits.. A perfect example being this colourful bag! Link for post here.

Thought I called Summer didn't really answer and I was still wearing sweater in mid June. Link for post here.

When the weather finally got a tinny bit better, I decided to try a more grungy style. Link for post here.

The Summer started out Tangerine, as if an honour to the blog itself was in demand... Link for post here.

After the better weather, some more good news: a collaboration with Joie and Fashiolista! Link for post here.

Even better news: my birthday! I turned twenty and showed you my birthday dress... Link for post here.

Wearing another dress, this time in a more casual way. Link for post here.

And yet another dress! For a girl who says she doesn't like dresses, I've done quite well! Link for post here.

Ok, this one is a maxi dress. That doesn't count as dress for me.. Find out why here: Link for post here.

Next, I tried out some new stuff with some print mixing... Link for post here.

The beggining of my Summer travels... Castelo Branco, my grandparents' city! Link for post here.

I kept trvelling, this time to the beautiful countryside in Alentejo. Link for post here.

And since  was there, I couldn't help but to take advantage of thi gorgeous fields for some photos! Some of my favourites ever! Link for post here.

And now... My first bikini post in Costa da Caparica. Link for post here.

The first time my boyfriend photographed me regularly was this Summer... That is why this particular outfit is so special to me! Link for post here.

The Pool Sessions are some of my favourite shots in the whole Summer! Links for part I, part II and part III.

Ericeira, in Portugal's west coast, has some real sea. Link for post here.

Another beach outfit... In the beautiful (secret) Praia do Tonel in Portugal's west coast. Link for post here.

The skorts (again!) in black... And a great monochromatic outfit for a night out! Link for post here.
