I recently found a very interesting post by Lilia Kazakova; a fashion-beauty blogger and vlogger that I have been following for a while on her website and social networks, where she narrated how in many cases her intelligence has been questioned for wearing high heels or makeup to classes and her workplace, as well as talking openly about beauty and fashion in her environment.

Her post made me think carefully about the topic, and I couldn't but felt very identified about it. I  wouldn't have enough fingers in my hands to count the number of times I said out loud: "I have a fashion blog. I take photos with the clothes and outfits that I'm wearing, and I share them on the Internet" to suddenly get back a weird face as an answer, as of no understanding, as thinking "how is that compatible with you?". In architecture, aesthetics is very much related to knowledge. For me, and also for many professors and professionals that I know and with whom I have been able to work with, a beautiful building must also be a functional one, well built from the most insignificant detail, with a good environmental and ecological performance. And that is only achieved by reading a lot, knowing and investigating until exhaustion, and being very curious. And I do not think that is in conflict with worrying about the aesthetics of oneself. And that includes having a fashion blog and worrying about how we present ourselves to the world, and how every and each one of us tries to express who we are through our way of dressing up.

Because you must know: I consider myself a very normal girl. I am an absolute average. I'm not especially pretty, not particularly bright, or especially smart. But I am hard-working and passionate. When I embark on something that I like, whether it has to do with a personal project, or a professional one, I give 100% of my effort, my time and my passion. And the vast majority of people related to the world of fashion and beauty that I know also share this passion and this infinite desire to work, to undertake new projects and do what they do the best way possible. Having a fashion blog does not mean being dumb. On the contrary: it means knowing how to plan, knowing how to generate and manage content, meet people and do networking, among many other things. Having a fashion blog means being an entrepreneur, and that is not incompatible with looks whatsoever. In fact, every time someone asks me what I do for a living, I'm increasingly using the form "I'm an architect... And I have a fashion blog".

Do you follow any guidelines when matching vintage pieces? Or you just take the piece as it was an actual garment? Do you also steal your grandma's clothes as I do? 

Already on Valencia again. I'm still not home, because I'm spending some of my latest holiday days with my family in ''El Perelló'', a beach town very near the city, but with the beach just under my window. It's amazing to stay here although there's nothing very interesting to do, apart from lying down all morning in the sun and doing some DIY projects.

This pictures weren't actually taken here. These come from Oropesa last week, also on the beach but on the last night I spent there. There are many typical beach stands there, so I took some time to go around there and get some cool stuff such bracelets and necklaces. The bracelet I'm wearing actually comes from there. It's a real nacre bracelet, maybe too fragile for being on my clumsy hands, but I still love it and wear it very carefully.

I thought this was the perfect dress to wear for a walk near the seashore. Finally everybody looked at me as I was an oompah-loompah or something like that (maybe too elegant?) but I was too comfy with my Mango tail dress. It's light, and the colors matched quite well the ambient there: a soft ombre effect with blue and white shades, but a color splash with that pink on the upper part. The heels come from Pepe Moreno. I think they're very original, and also comfortable to walk in. Seems like transparent things have had their moment this season (also the asymmetric or tail dresses), so why not try?

After exams period, I think there's nothing better than spending the whole afternoon with your friends, going for a walk for taking pictures and putting in common last gossips. Three days full of exams for me have been enough for my mind, and I think I would have gone nuts if they have continued for more than a week. Fortunately, I had my fencing exhibition in the morning, and met this awesome girls on the afternoon: María and The Mystic Lipstick
