There are certain things that I love about Summer in Spain. One of the things I love the most here is that the days are so long that it seems that you can live three lives in less than 24 hours. It is so warm, and the sunlight hours are so many that although in the mornings you might be at the office, at noon you have enough time to eat out with your family (even if it's a bit later than usual) and in the afternoons, take an ice cream or go for a couple of drinks with your friends. Therefore, my main principle in these months is to put on versatile and very flexible outfits that allow me to adapt to both the early hours of the day and the events happening in the afternoon.

This outfit, however, is not very suitable to go to the office. In this case, I used it to go out in the afternoon with my family, but I do not think I would ever wear shorts for work. I have done it sometimes but on very specific occasions. I do not like to wear shorts to work or classes, because my legs usually get stuck to the chairs, and it is not very comfortable. I prefer to use fluid jumpsuits made of light fabrics, even if they come with long pants. For me, these are much more comfortable, but in this case, this is the outfit that seemed most suitable for those circumstances, with that intense pink shirt with statement sleeves. They almost remind me of the traditional flamenco dresses' ruffles, which I think it's a very fun detail to add.

So, what's your view on Summer fashion and outfits for the Season? Let me know in the comment box below, OR, find me at @amandasomethingfashion

I was wearing:

Formul@ Joven color-block sandals

Zara stripes shorts and backless shirt

Lacoste handbag

Hoop earrings from local store

Anyway, my friend and I wanted to receive some schoolmates who travelled back there. So, we went to the airport and while waiting for the flight to arrive, we decided to go outside and improvise a little photoshoot on the parking. There are some tunnels and gateways pretty cute to take pictures, and the light was nice.

I was wearing something very simple, because after our ''excursion'' to the airport, I had to go to my classes and also to the doctor, so I couldn't wear 5.5 inch heels as you can imagine!

Oh. I remember. Lot of people have asked me how I did my hair updo. It's very easy, and I'm going to try to do a video tutorial about it soon, if my camera lets me to. It's a very comfortable hair, perfect for summer and warm weather or school, because it's a less-than-5-minutes hairstyle and works pretty well. This weekend I'm leaving to town (you know: no Internet!) so as I'll have time there I'll fight with the camera there!

So, you've seen them on LOTS of lookbookers and bloggers, but, maybe like me, you realized very late they were from TopShop, or you couldn't find them. Don't go desperate and make your own, I'll show you how. It's easy and fun, and is an easy project for children as well!

Supplies and things you'll need:

A piece of cardboard.

Plastic bags.

Pencil

Scissors

Brushes

When I thought they were finished (and absolutely dry) I realized I didn't paint until the seams, so, I had to turn them a little bit and then, paint. Also, when the paint is dry, maybe you'll have to retouch or re-paint, because some fabric needs more paint than others (mine are with two layers of white and red on the stripes).

Iron if necessary.

Note: I didn't paint mine on the back, but you can, just imagine and create your own stars & stripes shorts!

That's the new hat I bought yesterday, in ''Ale-hop'', with my friend Maria. I saw the same at the airport, going to Mallorca a week ago, but I didn't buy it because I couldn't carry it with me on the flight (and my package was going to explode) so, you can't imagine my face when I saw it yesterday. I don't usually wear hats, but these one with crochet, let my without words.

I'm leaving this evening to the beach town again with my family, to spend there the whole week. I want to chill out, get tanned, write and take pictures at the beach. I'll be here on Friday to go to the basketball game :)

I'll show you some items I'm going to carry with me there. Have I talked to you about the heels I bought in Boston? Also, my blue shorts, which I'm going to made the next DIY tutorial with!
