Try saying this post tittle three times fast.
I’m Achilles and these are my heels. I have a weakness for shoes and sales season is my second biggest enabler next to my mom.
Shop & Tell: shoe sales shopping spree
Silver on a Gray Day
Here I am again with another high-waisted skirt. They’re flattering – really elongate the body. The outfit was all in neutral tones, an unintentional match for the clouded, windy day.
Very windy.
Red Plaid and Green Tea
Went to brunch at a place specifically chosen because they serve bloody marys (Dear Breakfast, on Rua das Gaivotas, in Lisbon, you’re doing it right), in red plaid and a torero-style jacket. I paired the high-waisted midi skirt with a tucked in plain red button-up shirt, and a black cropped knit jumper over top.
Dorateymur Black Suede Radio Boots – A shoe review
I do a lot of my procrastination browsing Farfetch. I justify it by telling myself that I’m looking for some things that are missing from my wardrobe: a wide brim black hat. Some knee-high socks. I desperately need a replacement for my worn-out black overcoat.
So after a lot of searching I got none of that and bought another pair of boots instead.

Travelling to London: Tales, Trends, Treats & Tips
A week ago, more or less, Sir Boyfriend and I took a small break from work and went to London for 3 days. Thank the travelling Gods for low-cost airliners that enable us to have more distant weekend getaways .
Being my second time around in the city, I had a few places left I had to check off the list. We also wanted some time to just wander off and enjoy the city. Staying true to a big European capital, London is full of history, culture, diversity and novelty.
This guide is divided into four major categories: a cultural visit to historical places, an enjoyement of trendy places and temporary exhibitions, the indulgement in shopping and eating experiences and useful tips for this trip.
Travelling to London – Part 1: The Tales
While planning for this trip we filled our itinerary with museums and royal palaces. Wouldn’t be a visit to London if we didn’t allow ourselves to be immersed in the history of the city and the tales of the kingdom.
We started with the furthest back history hotspot, chronologically speaking. The Natural History Museum was our first stop.
Fashion Faux Pas – There’s Wally!
I knew what it looked like when I got it. The friend I was shopping with also knew what it looked like because she told me. Did I listen? Nope. The fabric had a great feel. The relaxed fit was confortable and flattering. I can make it work, I said to myself, no one will notice. You dumb b*tch.
