i have a lot of hope for 2014

__at the getty__

this is out of control, every single time i enter topshop, i buy something
i am already very sensible to matching top and bottoms, i just can't ignore it
but there, in a perfect reddish plaid, 4 days before christmas! that was too much to resist
and since we are still in southern california, i can wear it with my favorite sunglasses and sandals
life is well done sometimes

i never get tired of the desert. the colors and the landscapes move and change all the time, it's never the same. 

i forget everything when i am there. if you want to see more pictures, click here.

__it's cold__

i love how adding white makes any outfit looking colder and cleaner
especially when those white elements have a more sporty look
i feel i am always torn between one thing and the other and finally i try to balance as much as i can
little note, this skirt is my tradition, i wear it every year when i start christmas shopping
i am pretty late this year

__ ha ha nike__

yes, i did it.
i finally got a pair of nike and wear it as regular shoes
i was tempted to do so for soooo long and here i am
i know what you are thinking, what's the big deal here?
well first of all it is my first pair of nike, ever
when it was question of "sport", i was more an adidas type of girl
and also, it is the first time that i buy sneakers by myself and for myself
i am walking around a lot for the moment and i must say these shoes are a blessing

__some pink and blue__

some days are made to be colorful. today was one of these days. 
i also got some inches with my new tennis shoe. 
what i love in staying simple, it's that we can go for it with the details.

__not that much__

i fell in love with this pink furry skirt at topshop
it is soft and pastel, all i want and need this winter
the cut of it is really sixties but i balance the effect with a saggy knit

i like to balance things around, i am always afraid
i wouldn't define myself as minimalist, but there is still an obsession in me for "less is more"
