a morning in the neighbourhood
Writing that I should wear other blouses besides this one only resulted in my going and digging this one out of the closet. I just love outfits like this on summer mornings: simple, unfussy, retro and playful. I ambled to a café in my Catalan espardenya shoes, which are impossible to walk quickly in, because they base is made of rope and it shifts a bit as you walk. I kind of like that this most Mediterranean of shoes enforces a Mediterranean pace in life... strolling down shady alleyways for a morning cup of coffee. On Saturday morning, anyway.

I love the notion of "enforced slowness." I'm dressed in a very similar way today...with flip-flops.
Yep, perfect attitude. Add a croissant and OJ for me, please!
You could use some of the croissants here as murder weapons, they're so hard. I'll stick to the coffee and OJ :D
Those shoes are beaaautiful!! They look like romp-around-anywhere shoes : )
Love the outfit, especially the red tote. And I agree that some shoes are meant for slow strolling ;)
Emily amei seu look lindo, adoro essa sua blusa e esse seu sapato é lindooo

you do hot weather dressing so well. Summer has finally arrived in Brussels and I'm struggling. Without my tights and layering I am so lost, I actually had to go shopping in a 'I have nothing to wear' panic.
you look so casual yet so gorgeous, love the ensemble.
@Franca: I'm the opposite... I kind of hate layering and only feel like I'm dressed how I want to be in the summertime!
Lovely, the shirt is too nice to put away for too long I think.. Love the espadrilles, slightly different to my ones from Seville! x
I love your hair like this!
I don't care at all that you wear this blouse a lot because I love it, every time you post it I'm like "oooh, the blouse :D"
Loving the espardenyes, I used to wear them for dancing sardanes and that sort of stuff when I was younger and they made me feel so special haha.
@Kirstin: Um... really? This is my "my hair is being uncooperative" style...
Very cute. I love the shorts, especially. Do you recall where you got them?
@jesse.anne. The shorts are from H&M; a recent purchase, so they should still be available. :)
Adorable ensemble, I used to have a pair of shoes like that when I was a kid I am yearning for a pair now. So envious of your lifestyle xxx
I love everything about this- your hair, those shorts, and your cute blouse buttoned all the way up. Your blog makes me miss Europe so badly!
