Impossible Pattern Clash & ETRO

These skirt and jacket were hanging in my closet waiting to be worn together, so when I came across this  E T R O pic, I new it was time to take them for a walk in the  Autumn daylight.
Esta falda y chaqueta estaban colgadas en mi armario esperando que me las pusiera junta, así es que cuando ví este anuncio de E T R O, supe que era el momento de sacarlas a pasear a la luz de un día de otoño.
                                    I have made the cuffs out of a broken patent leather belt and a little bit of Velcro.
                                    He hecho las pulseras negras de un cinturón de charol roto y un poco de velcro.
Next week, I will be visiting La Rioja and Navarra, an area in the north of Spain full of history good food and better wines; and although unplugged from internet, I  promise to take lots of  photos to share with you. 
La próxima semana estaré visitando La Rioja y Navarra, un área en el norte de España llena de historia, buena comida y mejores vinos; y  aunque desconectada de internet, prometo hacer muchas fotos para compartirlas con vosotr@s

Loving the d.i.y. on that belt. Great way to re-purpose and recycle fashion. Next, nobody mixes print like you my dear. It's a hot trend this season, but you mastered it way before then. Looking chic as always!

hola; just acabava de llençar un cinturó preciós a la basura xq ja s´havia fet malbé, i m´he trobat amb el teu post; no cal dir q he corregut ràpidament a rescatar-lo; moltes gràcies x la sincronia

You are an adventurous one! The red boots make it all happen.

Buen viaje! I look forward to your travel tales.

FROM THE "REZ" TO THE "CITY" dijo...

That jacket is incredible! I love it so so much! I think it is very important to point out that when it comes to "pattern clashing", although the patterns are not the same color, they both need to have some of the same print (i.e. shapes like squares, circles, triangles or lines, flowers, paisley, houndstooth) in them. In the ETRO picture the same print with the long paisley is used in both the skirt and jacket. The colors are just different. In your case, the patterns and colors are different but you can see that both the skirt and jacket contain a circular design. PERFECTION! You my dear are marvelous! Kiah

FROM THE "REZ" TO THE "CITY" dijo...

by the way....have a great trip! I can't wait to hear the details and see all of the pictures! Be safe! Kiah

MARY dijo...

¡¡¡Genial la combinación!!! Creo que Etro debe ser una firma que te guste mucho.

Me anoto mentalmente la idea de las pulseras con velcro... es una idea prolongable a otras que tengo yo en mente...Se me ha encendido una bombilla al verlas.

Como siempre.. toda inspiración.

Un besazo y ¡¡¡pásalo bien en la Rioja!!!
