Oooh..Shooooes. Nice shoes.

I am getting these for my birthday!

wind+skirts=risky

There is a lot of wind in Zaragoza. So much so, that even wearing full length summer dress, reaching the floor, I end up with it around my ears to the entertainment of all the people on the streets. Sight. Not the first time, not the last. I remember some years ago in summer, coming home to Oslo. I wore a dress and did not notice the airvents outside, going to the car. Classic Marilyn Monroe scene only I am not a georgeous blonde, nor flirtingly covering my underwear...

On another note, but still not to far off I am randomly clicking my way through fashion blogs and getting inspired and slightly depressed. Thifting in Zaragoza is.. well, it is almost none existent. In a city of over half a million people, there are about two second hand clothes shops.

And did I mention the wind? So all those lovely fifties full skirt dresses in those pictures are just not very realistic, unless I by some sets of weights you can pin on tablecloths and decorate DIY style around the hem.

And I think I will go blonde. I have had every shade there is of black, voilet, red, orange, copper... but it is a bit scarey. Not a lot of noce sunstreaked blondes in Spain, more of the yellowing old bookpages thing..

It is nice to live in Spain

Our new flat is faced north south, with the gallery going south and there is enough room to sunbathe! We get sun there from about twelve now, and while I know perfectly well the "avoid midday sun rule" I spray on suncream 25 and do max 20 min on each side. Just enough to get that warm comfy sleepy feeling, and some vit D production going. I have so far not tanned anything, but then that is not the goal.. Being exam period, I spend most of my day in a room with the blinds down, so it is good to get some light..And the best thing about it: I dont have to worry about hairs. Witch for me is a major thing.
