Paillette printed pants & Avenio necklace

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Siempre había querido tener unos pantalones de este estilo y, en cuanto vi los de Zara con ese estampado que simulaba lentejuelas, supe que tenían que ser míos :) Ese mismo día me compré también la blusa, que me parece simplemente perfecta, y el bolso de Mango tipo doctor bag en color crema -regalo de mi madre, gracias!!-.

I've always wanted to have a pair of pants in this kind of shape and, when I saw this ones at Zara in paillette look-a-like print, I knew they would be mine! I also bought the blouse, which is just perfect, and the Mango doctor bag in cream colour -my mum's present, thanks!!

In accesories, the key was this amazing Avenio necklace that I've been wearing a lot; it looks gorgeous with every blouse and basic t-shirt! You can buy a similar necklace here.

VFNO

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Este año, mi VFNO la pasé entera en la tienda de Jimmy Choo con mi excompi y amiga Carol :) Pusieron un photocall enorme, había mojitos y sushi. ¡Una combinación perfecta!

This year, I spent my whole VFNO at Jimmy Choo store in Madrid with my friend Carol. There were a big photocall plus mojitos and sushi. A gorgeous blend!

Allí pude conocer a la fantástica blogger de Mi Armario en Ruinas, bloguera oficial de la noche para Jimmy Choo. Llevaba un vestido con print en tonos azules precioso, zapatos Cosmic de Jimmy Choo y cinturón negro con una placa dorada. Yo opté por uno de mis diseños y las sandalias nude de BCBG by Max Azria.

There I met the amazing blogger from Mi Armario en Ruinas, the official Jimmy Choo blogger for that night. She wore a beautiful printed dress in blue colours, plus Cosmic shoes by Jimmy Choo and a black belt with gold metallic detail. I chose one of my own designs and my BCBG by Max Azria nude sandals.

También me encontré con dos diseñadoras, Cristina de Ladybug (con la que desfilé en la I Pasarela de Jóvenes Diseñadores en Valladolid y de la que tengo un clutch neón chulísimo) y Yiddish Chutzpah. Majísimas y muy guapas vestidas también con diseños de sus respectivas firmas.

María Lafuente es una de las diseñadoras españolas a las que más sigo la pista. La conocí gracias a mi escuela de moda (La Escuela de Diseño, en Valladolid) y me enamoré de sus diseños y sus tejidos cuando fui asistente de backstage para uno de sus desfiles. Podéis ver las fotos que tomé de ese backstage AQUÍ y ver cómo se vive un desfile desde el otro lado. También he asistido a sus desfiles en la ya desaparecida Semana de la Moda de Castilla y León (en donde, por cierto, desfilaba otra de mis favoritas: Amaya Arzuaga).

María Lafuente is one of my predilected Spanish designers. I met her thanks to my fashion school (The Design School) and I felt in love with her designs and fabrics when I was her backstage assistant. You can see my backstage pictures HERE. I've also attended her runway shows at the Castilla and Leon Fashion Week (in which I could see the runway show of another amazing designer: Amaya Arzuaga).

Este año, el desfile de Primavera 2013 de María Lafuente tuvo lugar en la Galería Utopic, un espacio diáfano muy bien decorado que ya descubrí en otro evento. Un lugar perfecto para la colección 'Pure' ideada por María.

This year, her Spring 2013 runway show took place at Utopic Gallery, a diaphanous space with a gorgeous decor that I also visit for another event. A perfect place for María Lafuente 'Pure' collection.

Pude observar y tocar los tejidos en el backstage. María Lafuente siempre recibe inspiración de la naturaleza, y en esta colección destacaba un material de fécula de patata y caña de azúcar, además de los pétalos en relieve (preciosos!!), la seda y los encajes. Las joyas eran muy originales, con componentes informáticos reciclados.

I could watch and touch the fabrics at the backstage. María Lafuente always get inspired by nature, and for this collection she used a potato starch and sugar cane material, as well as the raised petals (so beautiful!!), silk and lace. Jewels were really original, in recycled computer components.

La paleta cromática de 'Pure' se centra en los blancos y el gris muy suave, con alguna pincelada de amarillos y tostados. Una gama muy parecida a la que usó Sita Murt y que será tendencia para la Primavera de 2013. Unos colores, por cierto, en total armonía con la sala.

'Pure' colour palette was focused on white and soft grey, with a touch of yellow. A range of colours very similar to Sita Murt's that will be sure a trend for next Spring 2013. The colours were, indeed, in harmony with the room.

Me encantaron los vestidos largos del final, el amarillo del principio y el grisáceo con la falda repleta de flores en relieve. Una maravilla.

I do love the gowns, the yellow dress at the beginning of the show and the grey one with the skirt full of flowers. Breath-taking.

Lace + Flowers + Architecture = delicate & gorgeous!

Al finalizar el desfile, los chicos del Annua (un restaurante/bar precioso en San Vicente de la Barquera) nos hicieron saborerar ostras acompañadas de cava.

At the end of the show, Annua (an amazing restaurant&bar located in San Vicente de la Barquera) made us taste oysters and champagne.

Y después, a la noche... Nos fuimos a la fiesta privada que había en El Ático de la Calle Princesa. Buen ambiente, unas vistas geniales y unos gin tonics inmejorables. ¿Qué más se podía pedir?

And at the night... We went to a private party in a gorgeous attic. Good atmosphere, great views and unbeatable gin tonics. What else could we ask for?
