Summing up my Barcelona culinary experience in 3 words: ham(on), cheese, sangria.
On our first day we toured the MANGO design facility, which become pretty the revel in. I found out that the founder of MANGO visited the Philippines at some point, attempted a scrumptious yellow fruit for the first time, fell in love, and named his garb line after it. half of-Pinoy Nick loved that story.
On Day 2 we had a "photoshoot" for the MNG by means of MANGO November collection. Our clothes and looks have been already decided on for us. I were given a fitted high-waist pencil skirt (US sz 2 in this runs pretty small, and healthy like an H&M sz four or 00 in other manufacturers) and a cream shirt (XS runs massive).
We additionally had our hair and make-up look decided on for us. every blogger had a printout of their face subsequent to an proposal face, which includes a superstar. when I saw my face-spiration I had to suppress the giggles. It turned into a "conventional" Asian lady, with pale white skin, cherry purple lips, sharply angled eyes, and stick-directly hair. I asked for soft waves and a mild smokey eye as an alternative.
Tapas in the usa will in no way taste the equal. enjoying a delicious al-fresco meal with fellow bloggers: (from left to proper) Dianna, Carmen, me, Lilliana, Sydne, and Vahni. Yuli was there as nicely, but inconveniently hidden in the back of the waiter's bicep.
A souvenir from the flagship Zara. My impression of Zara is high prices, low high-quality, and generous sizing - but I do love their patterns. this is a size S from their juniors "Trf" line, that is cut smaller than Zara woman. It fairly suits me well in the shoulders, duration, and even sleeve duration. it's now not on their US internet site, but I simply saw a bunch at my nearby keep for $89 (changed into $10 cheaper in Spain).
Lastly, do you recognize any of these lovely ladies? They came along to Spain!
just kidding! earlier than Barcelona, I spent some days working in chilly Toronto. i was thrilled that those neighborhood ladies got here to go to on such short note, at a as an alternative past due hour for a weeknight. i've been reading some of their blogs for years, so it was a delight assembly each considered one of them in character. From left to proper: Jessy, Cynthia, me, Elaine, and Lor.
facet anecdote - behind my smile, i used to be suffering through a slight dresser malfunction. My packing turned into so streamlined that I forgot an all-critical belt. My skirt (from this put up) is huge inside the waist, plus my shirt was very slinky, so it kept slipping down lower and decrease. I made do at some stage in the day with a fabric belt from a tweed get dressed, however whipped off the ugly component for our little meetup. in the image, i am strategically pulling up my skirt with the hidden hand ; )
