Hi readers! Happy hump day! Another week has passed and we’ve reached the end of April now. With all my traveling in the past few weeks I didn’t even notice that a third of the year has gone by. A third! It seems like it was only yesterday when I was writing to you about my New Year’s resolutions, many of which I’m still on track to achieve,Β while some others have fallen into the cracks. One thing I did do during these past few months is my closet cleanup. I noticed that through my 4 years in Seattle I’ve accumulated a lot of clothes (especially because of my shopaholic condition). I’ve been working on trimming my closet, focusing on basics and pieces with high reusable value. And, top of it all, keep the clothes that are the most comfortable but also the most current. This makes choosing my everyday clothes a much simpler task.
Most of the pieces in the following outfit I’ve already featured on the blog. However, I’ve never combined them together and I really liked how this pairing resulted. First we have the trench coat, which has been one of my most frequent go-to’s this spring season. Perhaps you remember it from the London Calling post. It’s one of my favorite outerwear pieces because of it’s versatility. It looks really good with both formal and more casual wear, and it’s never too heavy or too warm for the day. The other piece that you have already seen before are these joggers, which you may remember from the Blue Valentine post. Last but not least, I’m wearing the sweater from my Mixed Prints post, with just a simple baby blue button-down from Club Monaco. It is the combination of these, the harmony between all the pieces, that really made it for me in this outfit. What’s your opinion on this? Does it meet the bar for a normal day at work? Of course these are all garments that I decided to keep in my minimalistic closet, they fit my checklist to perfection.
That’s it for the day peeps. I’m super excited to share with you that a collaboration is coming pretty soon to Geek Q. I don’t want to spoil any details, but I’ll just say that it’s from a really cool clothing company, and the moment they sent me the catalog I wanted everything from their collection! Picking the right outfit was definitely hard, but I hope you guys like what I selected. Keep posted to find that post here on Geek Q very soon. As always, remember to dress in style for any occasion and just let other people hear your voice in the way you look. Thank you for stopping by today and I’ll see you very soon with more fashion and lifestyle posts. And to the people that answered my questions for the Liebster award, thank you for following the chain! I lovedΒ reading your answers andΒ I’m glad that I got to know you a littleΒ bit more.Β See you allΒ next week!
Β‘Hola lectores! Β‘Feliz miΓ©rcoles! Otra semana del aΓ±o se nos fue y hemos llegado al final del mes de abril. Con mis viajes de las ΓΊltimas semanas ni siquiera habΓa notado que ya pasΓ³ un tercio del aΓ±o. Β‘Un tercio! Y aunque pareciera que fue ayer cuando les estaba escribiendo sobre mis propΓ³sitos de AΓ±o Nuevo, muchos de los cuales todavΓa estoy en proceso de cumplir, otros de estos ni siquiera los he empezado. Una cosa que sΓ he hecho en estos meses es la limpia de mi clΓ³set. Me di cuenta que durante mis primeros 4 aΓ±os en Seattle he acumulado bastante ropa (probablemente gracias a mi desorden de comprador compulsivo). He estado trabajando en reducir el tamaΓ±o de mi clΓ³set, enfocΓ‘ndome en piezas base y en prendas con bastante valor de reΓΊso. Teniendo siempre como prioridad no sΓ³lo mantener la ropa mΓ‘s cΓ³modaΒ sino tambiΓ©n la ropa de temporada. Esto ha hecho que elegir mi atuendo todos los dΓas sea una tarea mucho mΓ‘s sencilla.
La mayorΓa de las piezas que pueden ver en el siguiente outfit ya las habΓa presentado en el blog. Sin embargo, nunca las habΓa combinado de esta manera y realmente me gustΓ³ el resultado. Primero, tenemos la gabardina, la cual ha sido uno de mis recursos mΓ‘s buscados en esta primavera. QuizΓ‘s la recuerden del postΒ de London Calling. Es una de mis prendas favoritas debido a su versatilidad. Se ve muy bien tanto con ropa formal como con ropa mΓ‘s casual, y nunca estΓ‘ de mΓ‘s por ser muy pesadaΒ o muy caliente durante el dΓa. La otra vestimenta que probablemente recuerden haber visto antes son los joggers, los cuales les presentΓ© en el post Blue Valentine. Por ΓΊltimo, tenemos el suΓ©ter de mi entrada Mixed Prints, con una camisa de botones azul cielo muy simple de Club MΓ³naco. Es la combinaciΓ³n de estas tres, la armonΓa entre las prendas, lo que realmente me gustΓ³ de este outfit. ΒΏQuΓ© opinan, cumple las expectativas para un dΓa normal de trabajo? Por supuesto que esta ropa forma parte de mi nuevo clΓ³set minimalista, ya que cumplen con mi requisitos a la perfecciΓ³n.
Eso es todo por hoy amigos mΓos. Estoy muy emocionado de compartir con ustedes que una colaboraciΓ³n estarΓ‘ llegando a Geek Q muy pronto. No quiero arruinarles los detalles, pero les puedo decir que es con una tienda de ropa que me ha gustado bastante, y que en el momento en que me enviaron su catΓ‘logo, Β‘me gustaron todas las prendas de su colecciΓ³n! Escoger el atuendo perfecto me tomΓ³ un par de dΓas, pero espero que les guste lo que seleccionΓ©. MantΓ©nganse al tanto de Geek Q ya que proximamente verΓ‘n esa colaboraciΓ³n por este medio. Como siempre, recuerden vestirse con estilo para cualquier ocasiΓ³n y dejen que los demΓ‘s escuchen su voz por la manera en la que visten. Gracias por leer el dΓa de hoy y nos vemos muy pronto con mΓ‘s moda y estilo. Para las personas que respondieron mis preguntas del Liebster Award la semana pasada, quiero manderles mis agradecimientos por seguir la cadena. Me ha encantado leer todas sus respuestas y estoy muy contento de saber mΓ‘s de ustedes. Β‘Nos vemos la prΓ³xima semana!
