She’s a Lady

Posted on 28 August, 2014 by misssixtiestwist

I have been busy with personal issues and I have decided to move the shop opening to next month. Things have changed drastically in my life and I am a bit uncertain about the future.

Anyway…Don’t worry! I will open the shop and keep up with the blog.

The other day, while looking for garments suitable for the shop, I came across a beautiful dress that I was intending to sell. Not anymore ’cause it is so gorgeous that I had to keep it!

It is a late 50s/early 60s dress from a Spanish designer in perfect condition and has pockets!

I was so excited to keep it that I had to get some photographs on it. Excuse the bad quality photos, but I had to take that opportunity to get pictured with my “new” hair!

All shots taken in my grandma’s flat, which, as you can see, is like being in a Film set.

Have a lovely week, folks!

Spring Flowers

Posted on 6 May, 2014 by misssixtiestwist

Last Sunday I had a meal with my family. The weather turned out nice, so why not pose for the camera?
Since the weather in my country is mostly sunny and warm, flowers in my garden are all blooming. Aren’t they beautiful?

What I Wore: a Tatyana Boutique pink shirt I bought in Nashville last year and my new skirt from Hell Bunny. I am so in love with it, even though I’ve only worn it twice! ❤
Hell Bunny is probably my new favorite vintage inspired brand: cool designs, rockabilly styled garments and the price is cheaper than other brands. The fabric is quite simple, but consistent. I would definitely recommend you all to get something from them, their stuff is gorgeous!

Have a lovely week y’all xx

Joven, británica y con mucho estilo. Así es Carey Mulligan, actriz nacida hace 28 años en el Reino Unido. Saltó a la fama por su impresionante papel en An Education, historia basada en hechos reales en el Londres de los años 60. Más recientemente ha participado en Drive, junto a Ryan Gosling, Inside Llewyn Davis y como Daisy Buchanan en The Great Gatsby.

Casada con el líder de Mumford & Sons, Carey sigue la moda del momento pero dejándose influenciar por el estilo preppy y chic tan propio de los 60. Su corte garçon ya se ha convertido en un icono.

Berlin Adventures

Posted on 29 April, 2014 by misssixtiestwist

Hola!
Primero de todo, mil disculpas por la falta de actividad en el blog. Hace unos días volví de Berlín, capital de Alemania y también capital de los hipsters. Es una ciudad hipermoderna, cool y muy urbana. Además, está llena de historia: justamente este año 2014 se cumplen 25 años de la caída del muro que separaba la ciudad. La parte oeste de Berlín es muy europea, con anchas avenidas y edificios de estilo neoclásico. La parte este, al contrario, es austera y gris, con edificios funcionales y muy cuadriculados.

Lo mejor: la comida, el transporte público y la gente
Lo peor: el incivismo de algunos y el tiempo

Hello!
First of all, my apologies on the lack of activity on the blog. A few days ago I came back from Berlin, capital of Germany and hipster city. It is very modern, cool and urban. Moreover, there’s plenty of history: in 2014 the city commemorates the 25th anniversary of the fall of the wall, which separated Berlin. The West part of the city is very european, with large avenues and neoclassic style buildings. The East, on the contrary, is more austere and grey, with functional buildings.

The Best: food, public transport and the people
The Worst: antisocial behavior of some and the weather

My first and new collectif clothing skirt!

Posted on 22 March, 2014 by misssixtiestwist

Hoy es uno de esos días en los que apetece publicar un #throwbackthursday, aunque sea de hace un mes y poco y hoy sea sábado. A finales de enero me hice mi primer tatuaje. Después de meses pensándolo y buscando el diseño perfecto me decidí a sufrir bajo la aguja y la tinta.
Y claro, una vez curada la herida en la piel tocaba lucirlo. Justo esa misma semana se organizaba una fiesta de música britpop y no podía faltar!

Mi outfit consistió en un jersey vintage de mi madre + falda de collectif clothing + zapatos de una tienda local. El resultado: un look rockabilly con aires preppy.

Today is the perfect day to post a #throwbackthursday, although it is from a month ago and today’s a saturday. I got my first tattoo by the end of january. After months deciding what to get on my skin I made it to the parlor.
And after it healed it was time to show it to others. Lucky I was that there was a britpop party the same week. I couldn’t miss that!
My outfit consisted on a vintage jersey from my mother + my new collect if clothing skirt + shoes from a local shop. The result: a preppy rockabilly look.
