Mancha and pattern mixing tips

Everyone meet my cutie kitty, Mancha, for those of you wondering where Mancha (the name) comes from, it means 'stain' in Spanish.

I was never a cat lover but when this rodent joined our family last year i gained the cutest, cuddliest cat in the planet. He lets me pick him up like a baby and jumps in my lap every afternoon when i come home from work. I love this munchkin.

Oh, and he loves rain, i dunno why, he is that strange cat, and i think it goes with his mysterious look, or is maybe that he is black it makes him look mysterious? :)... anyways, whoever said black cats weren't cute, you were wrong!

Oh, it's Mancha again, photobombing, I guess we didn't take enough pictures of him, he got jealous :P

My cutie panther, taking the spotlight :P

I'm combining two of my favorite patterns stripes and polka dot, tho i also love geo patterns with polka dots.

combining patterns is soo much fun! i seriously love the contrast. Remember that if you combine patterns the key is to use either two solid colors that go together (like in this case navy and yellow) and also another tip is to make sure one pattern has a color that is also in the second pattern (like the white polka dots go with the the white stripes on the top) hope that helps if you happen to venture into pattern mixing! have fun with it ;)

So It was raining all afternoon yesterday, but it feels like its been raining non stop considering i have mentioned rain a lot in my posts lately.

With tropical storm, Isaac, brushing through the Florida keys (which wasn't bad at all and not near us) i have to tell you i'm a wuss when it comes to hurricanes, mostly when we were in tornado warning one whole night, that i couldn't sleep (not till 4am). 

Is not often we get tornado warnings and considering the warning was from 11pm at night till 9am the next day, you can imagine how scared i was. 

That night I took Mancha to my room and like the cutie he is he cuddle against my belly, it was comforting. 

I seriously love this cat even tho sometimes he scratches and bites me when playing. :P 

high waist shorts are a favorite go to item, how about you?

yay for rainy days, but not so yay when you want to take pictures outside, thankfully there was the patio. wore this to watch a movie with Chris at his house. We decided in order to see the Dark night (which i haven't seen yet, (i know i know) but he has) we should watch the first two films.

We are still to watch the 2nd movie to then go to the theater, i better get on that already :O

although i always plan my outfits ahead of time, this one wasn't. I literally walked to my closet grabbed the shirt and asked myself what shorts looks great with it. and boom! high wait shorts are always my to go items during summer (well i lied, on winter too, with tights of course) 

happy tuesday! :D

Yay! so happy is friday! this outfit is from last Sunday; I got to take the outfit pictures with my friend Alyssa, who just opened her blog Necklinetohem.

We both have always inspired each other on our outfits and from having totally different styles we have fallen into liking almost the same stuff, lol. She is awesome so make sure you follow her too :)

The pictures were taken by my friend Adrian (Alyssa's boyfriend and my brother, well not really my brother, but like a brother :D) he is cool too!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

wow so many pictures. taking pictures outside is so much better, considering the light is awesome in all the pictures, you just want to post all of them.

Chris and I went to do our wedding registry at bed bath and beyond, let me tell you it was so much fun and not stressful at all, considering it took 5 hours to get it all done. one thing for sure is that if had to do it again i would def pick more comfortable shoes.

i love love this shirtdress, ive worn it once before, but it never made it to the blog. i also love Chris's shirt, that i seriously want a girl version of it, such a cool pocket detail.

anyways, happy monday to all! :D
