Summer Market Stylista - the recap

I love this type of initiatives, where someone gathers a lot of Portuguese entrepreneurs and exhibits their work that they publicize online. Stylista (check her blog here) was that person and made it all happen with this summer edition here in Estoril, inside Fiartil's area (where Feira do Artesanato open from the of June to September 1st and provides a fun time in the evening to everyone who wants to come and enjoy a traditional Portuguese...

Unique Summer w/ TRICIRCULO

Todos os verões queremos sempre um biquíni ou fato-de-banho novo. E eu não sou excepção. Só que com esta procura tão grande, sinto que há uma certa inflação de preços por parte destas lojas online com produtos super diferentes. O que vale é que no meio disto tudo há lojas como a TRICIRCULO que praticam preços razoáveis e produtos à mesma super diferentes....

Caffè e Cioccolato a Lisbona

"Um dos pequenos prazeres da vida é o momento em que se toma o café do dia. E mais rico fica esse momento com um quadrado generoso de chocolate artesanal negro. Congratulo a Bettina e Niccòlo Corallo por nos proporcionar este momento tão banal para uns, mas que neste espaço se torna especial...

Sales alert | KIKOcosmetics

Summer means a lot of things, and one of them is COLOR! As much as I love wearing black, this warmer time makes me crave for more vibrant colors in my life. Wearing brighter colors can have a great psycological effect in the way we perceive our life, it can make us more positive and can boost our confidence. So why not use and overuse colo...

DOC GO AWAY #2

As you might know, or not, this juice has been blogged already (here), but the last time I've tried it I found it dull... that's why I wanted to revamp it and bring you the new and improved versio...

Overnight Oats

So this past two months' breakfasts have been ALL about granola. I loved it and ate it so much that now I need to move on to my next breakfast obsession. Not sure if this is going to be it, but I must give a try... Oats. Less calories, less sugar, less fun. But I want to make it fun anyhow. And how? By adding all sorts of goodies*. But first, for them not to taste like dry paper, I must cook them... but in the morning, between fooling...

Lost In

"Numa tarde soalheira, este é o lugar ideal para se descontrair e para se distanciar da agitação da cidade. É um lugar onde uma brisa fresca nos leva para um sítio mítico-oriental, com a sua decoração característica indiana confortável que dá uma nova vida àquele pequeno terraço. Este que olha de frente para uma Lisboa revitalizada. ...

Denim on Denim | ZARA edition

details here: Denim on Denim Guess what? This season's trend is also a blast from the past... DENIM! And how to pair it, you might ask, well with more denim! You'll find that it will never be enough, either you want a top to denim, and your jeans of course, but also your underwear! (you never know), it is quite the mania! So to truly get deep into this trend, I picked up some awesome flats and heels from Zara and even the cutest bags also...

Rico Montadito

"Mini sandes deliciosas a €1? Eu quero! Com uma centena de variedades de montaditos, este é o sítio por excelência onde se paga pouquíssimo e se come lindamente.  Hoje, 4a e também ao domingo, todas as sandes estavam a €1 (o preço normal não é muito mais do que isso), mas por €4 pedi duas sandes, mais uma imperial e ainda uma sandes sobremesa.  É daqueles sítios que enche e que faz fila até ao virar da esquina, mas que compensa...

Memmo Alfama

"Céu claro, temperatura amena... é tarde para mais um terrace! Chegando ao Chiado e fazendo umas comprinhas, já apetecia um drink bem fresquinho! Tomámos o 28, e rumo até ao Limoeiro. Descemos um metro e avistou-se, em letras pintadas num muro branco, "Memmo Alfama". Seguimos a direção da seta grafitada e no fundo da Travessa Merceeiras, avistámos o hotel design. Uma entrada simples, mas tão convidativa. Um ambiente clean, puro e com um toque...

Suede & Lace

POLYVORE SET: Suede & Lace I love window-shopping and see the new trends stores showcase, and today I've been through some and loved to look at the suede section. So, to also mess around a little with this new site I found out, POLYVORE, that creates amazing collages (well this one is not so great, but to start off it does the job right), I put up together some of the best suede items at Zara (and one of Stradivarius). And to compliment...

Breakfast Ideas

If you have been following me on Instagram, you may have noticed that I eat a lot of soy products, and Alpro is by far my favorite brand. As for taste, texture and benefits, for me, is the best. And now they have been expanding their product's line to yogurts and other drinks, so I just want to try them all!&nbs...

DEJÀ LU | book lovers, BEWARE!

With the rebirth of Cidadela in Cascais, the opening of a charity bookstore gives also a new life to books already read. Originated from the blog DEJÀ LU, the bookstore with the same name was inaugurated this February with the financial support of Pousadas de Cascais. It all started when Francisca Prieto, the blog's author, started to auction used books and donate the money to the Portuguese Association of Down Syndrome, since...
