Playing With My Blues

January 16, 2015

Outfit with bright colors

It's only mid January and I already miss the warm weather. I don't know about you, but I personally can never get used to winter (I'm originally from an all-year-round warm weather country) and I always tend to get the blues here and there when the weather is cold and the sky is grey. So one of the things I do in order to cheer up around this time of the year besides enjoying a glass of red wine or working out, is wearing fun (to me) combinations like these two looks I'm sharing with you today.
I decided to play around with turquoise/teal type of blue and cobalt blue. I wore two different coats on that day, and I believe both coats added fun to my blues.

Es sólo a mediados de enero y ya me hacen falta las temperaturas cálidas. Yo no sé ustedes, pero yo personalmente nunca me acostumbro al invierno (soy originaria de un país con clima cálido todo el año) y de vez en cuando tiendo a sentirme un poco triste cuando el clima es frío y el cielo esta gris. Así que una de las cosas que hago con el fin de animarme a alrededor de esta época del año, además de disfrutar de una copa de vino tinto o hacer ejercicios, es ponerme combinaciones divertidas como estas dos que les estoy compartiendo el día de hoy.
Decidí jugar con un azul turquesa y azul cobalto. Ese día en particular me puse dos abrigos diferentes, y creo que ambos añadieron diversión a mi nostalgia.

  1. I am left breathless by the stunning styling you create with layering. Awesome outfits, both appeal to me. And here I am missing winter after a stint in cold Europe, wanting to sport my favourite season's finds!
    You look fabulous Carelia!

  2. Absolutely stunning and so fun! You found just the right medicine for your Winter blues (even though, I am from cold climate originally, I am not a fan of cold weather, my blues are usually in November/December, it's getting better after days start getting longer). Take care of yourself, sending hugs xxx

    1. I think THAT is my problem with winter…the days are way too short and cold and I don't get the chance to enjoy outdoors as much as summer time ;-( Thanks Natalia for your comment.

  5. I love the combinations of blue. The red coat really makes the outfit. I personally love winter since I have all the opportunities to layer and use the entirety of my closet.

    1. Thanks Mariah! You right about that. I do love to wear my coats and other pieces in my wardrobe myself, however I get a little depressed when I don't have the chance to do as many outdoors as I do in spring and summer time.
