2012 IS COMING!!!

2012 is coming and DSTONE Magazine is 
waiting it with arms wide open!

Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve! What should you wear on that night? 
You can almost wear anything
It only depends on the way you're going to celebrate it.

If it is something more formal, you should go for a  black tie dress.
If it is something more casual, a shorter dress or 
a jumpsuit should be acceptable.

You just have to feel pretty and comfy!

Here are my suggestions:

I'll give you some colorful options and some black and white options.

For New Year's Eve, I always prefer to go for a black and white outfit. But color is fine too.

If you like it, wear it!

This year, I'm thinking about wearing a dark grey skirt with something white on top.

Sparkles and all that funny things may be a part of your look, but remember:
Less is more!
(especially when we're talking about sequences and sparkles!!!)

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM TURKEY

I'm pretty sure most of our readers might think I'm Turkish but I'm not. I know I write tons of posts from here but that's only because my life is divided between Portugal and Turkey. But in my ID I'm Portuguese and there's no doubt about it!

On Christmas, I always like to keep my outfit really simple.
I wore a pair of dark blue jeans and a beautiful lace sweater.

I hope to share some pictures later.


This picture is from here!

H&M WISH LIST

Every season, before I go shopping, I look for what I would like to have on the Internet so that when I'm actually at the store I know what outfits I want to make and what things I shall buy.
Today I decided to share with you guys the H&M pieces I like the most.



Have a nice week!

LOOK OF THE DAY


3.1 Phillip Lim (yellow shirt), Michael Michael Kors (skirt and jacket), Jimmy Choo (boots), 
Proenza Schouler (bag) and Wolford (socks)
All the pictures are from Net-a-porter.com


I started putting this outfit out by choosing the skirt. Then, I was thinking about what top I should wear and I thought a yellow shirt would be a nice choice. The shirt is supposed to be worn under the skirt, but not to close to your skin, give it a little movement. After choosing these two pieces, I found this boots (which I love!!!) and I thought they would give this outfit a casual look, not too chic. I also love that kind of "squared" jackets and I found this one of Michael Michael Kors. I didn't want the bag to be too matchy matchy, but I guess this one is perfect for what I wanted.

Fashion Trends: 

Glitter (skirt and jacket), yellow (shirt), male style (boots) and structured bag.

HALLOWEEN?!?!

I had never in my life celebrated halloween and I'm not thinking of doing so. In my country it's not that important. So why am I talking about Halloween? Because I found this picture which I love and it's perfect for this theme!

From here.

Who can resist a CHANEL pumpkin?!?! I can't!

I'm sorry for not being posting as much as I used to, but school is stealing all of my time.
Anyways, tomorrow I'll post something new!

Have a nice Friday!

ANKLE BOOTS

There is something about these boots! I don't know if I can resist them! This year I was thinking about buying something like this and some wedges but I'm still looking for the best.

The pictures are from the respective webstites, except the YSL picture which is from Net-a-porter.com

They don't go with my style, but I guess it's time to make some changes. They look so practical and comfy... And they go with pants, shorts, skirts or dresses! There are no dress codes for them, they go with everything.

Chiara from The Blonde Salad has a pair of boots that I really like! 


This picture is from her blog. I love how these boots can be so chic! OMG! I love them!

Have a nice weekend!

LOUIS VUITTON SS12

I've been thinking about posting something about this fashion show for a long time. It was so amazing! When I first saw the carousel with all the models I almost died. It was beautiful. There are just a few designers who can prepare such a big show without "hiding" their collection behind all the scenarios. So, congratulations Marc Jacobs!

The collection was based on soft colours: blues, greens, yelows and pinks; and a bit of a dark blue.
It is feminin and chic. It is not the opposite of the last summer because it still has colour but it's more soft and more fresh.

Baby Blue 

 "Baby" Green

White 

Dark Blue 

Something like Purple 

Beige 

 Metallic Baby Blue

A bit of Black and White 

Yellow! 

 Feathers!!!

Ending up with Kate Moss 

And finally the artist: MARC JABOBS

Have a nice week!

LISBON FASHION WEEK - DAY 2

Today we went to the second day of Lisbon Fashion Week. We attended to the V!tor and to the Luís Buchinho fashion show. Both great, both different.

It was great to finish school and go straight up to a fashion show. I can't say it was relaxing but kind of.

I was wearing H&M sandals, Jeans from Levis, a H&M Jacket and an Alexander Mcqueen T-Shirt. The bag is from ZARA.






And here we are spotted on Vogue PT!
Bad quality. It might be a picture of an iPhone or something.



Have a nice weekend!

Back to Portugal

Hi! I'm back to Portugal, which means I'm back to school, which means that I'm depressed...
These days off were awesome! But now it's time to get back to work.
I'm super tired because I only slept 4 hours and took 2 aircrafts. Jesus! But I still have time to share this amazing video of the V&R SS 2012 Collection. What do you think about it?



Have a nice week!

MERHABA [Hi in Turkish]

I'm in Turkey again. Just for you to know, I'm Portuguese but my life is divided between Turkey and Portugal during the last, this and the next year.

NOTE:
I don't want this blog to get too personal. A lot of people post pics of them showing what they're wearing but I want this blog to be your online magazine. I want it to have a little bit of everything.

I couldn't resist showing you these pics!!! This time we went to Pamukkale! It was beautiful! I've never in my life seen something like this! There you can forget about your troubles, about your business, about everything that bothers you.

Pamukkale means "cotton castle" in Turkish.
The white "thing" that you see is not snow! It's limestone!


Our feet with limestone on it!


The view! Amazing!


These are the turkish ladies - they were working there, cleaning it.


And this is me rubbing the limestone in my leg.


I was wearing a blue dress from H&M. But I only had pics with my family and I didn't want the entire world to see them. My dress was something like this picture. This is a T-BAGS dress from Net-a-porter.com

                                                         T-Bags 

Have a nice weekend!

OMG!!!

OMG! I'm sorry but I have to share this with you!

Look at this picture.

From here

Do you think that the Balenciaga show was such a good show that even deserved a standing ovation? Hmmm, no! That's not true. The truth is that moments before the show started, the seats fell and the front rows had  to stand throughout the show. It is even more funny to see names  as Anna Wintour or Grace Codington in this picture.

SHOES WITH LACES

To be honest, I'm a little bit tired of this trend. I like it but... I think I've already seen too much of the same thing. But what I think is not important because this is a trend! If you're not tired of it as I am, you have green light to use it!
So, I'm sorry for the poor quality of this post, but it's school time so it's harder to make prettier things, but we'll try, though.


From left to right, upper row first and downer last:
Marc by Marc Jacobs, Reed Krakoff, Dolce & Gabbana, Miu Miu, ZARA (69.95€), (TOPSHOP 68£)
All the pictures are from Net-a-porter.com, except the last two which are from Zara.com and from TOPSHOP.COM

Now, here is the main part of this post. I decided to creat a look with this trend. Here is the same look but one is more expensive and the other is cheaper. Can you guess which one is what?


So, the first one is the cheap one!

H&M Jeans – 39.95€, TOPSHOP Top – 48£ (almost 55€), TOPSHOP Blazer – 65£ (almost 74€), TOPSHOP Wedges – 68£ (almost 77€), ZARA BAG – 49.95€
TOTAL: 295.90€
All the pictures are from the respective brands' website
And this is the expensive one! Way expensive, actually!


Current/Elliott jeans 230.13€ - , Lanvin Top – 895€, Helmut Lang Blazer – 580€, Surface to Air – 310€, Reed Krakoff bag – 1000€
TOTAL: 3015.13€
All the pictures are from Net-a-porter.com
EXPENSIVE ONE: 3015,13€
CHEAP ONE: 295,90€

If you buy the cheap example, you save 2719,23!!!!

Too much maths?!?!?! Yeah! I think so, but I just want to share my point of view. You don't need to wear expensive clothes to be in fashion. If you can afford that, that's fine. If you can't, that's fine too. The most important thing is to wear what you like (and of course, what's in fashion).
Hope you've liked it!
Take care.

JUST SHINE!!!

Glitter and shine should be your best friends this season! All around the most famous runways, there were seen models walking beautiful outfits shining, shining and shining. Who doesn't remember the Dolce & Gabbana show? Hum?
I love this trend and I'm tottaly addicted to it. In fact, my outfit to the FNO Lisbon had this trend. I wore a beautiful sparkling tank top and a shining clutch.
I believe this trend shoudn't be worn as a total look. It can look predictable and also boring, or even tacky. You don't want your outfit to look tacky, do you?
So, a squence top is okay, but pairing it with a squence pants shall be a very carefull operation. Remember: LESS IS MORE!
To state your trend you don't need to wear it a lot. Sometimes a clutch or a pair of shoes are enough.
