Grandpa Style and Blog Anniversary



When I came to Coimbra, Portugal, I didn't take many clothes, because all my winter wear was here.  Though I forgot to take some basics like shirts to wear underneath other things and got to wear some of my sister's clothes almost every day. In this particular day I was in the mood for lazy, grandpa looking style, so I borrowed this shirt and cardigan from her. I also wanted to cut the man look here with a red lipstick, that I should actually put on more often!
On another note, I just realized today is my 2 years blog anniversary, so Happy Birthday Black Sheep! Well I actually started a blog 3 years ago, more or less, though I'd post random things on it. I wanted to maintain the blog but not its random content so I deleted previous posts (though there's still one of  a haircut lol). And then two years ago I decided to make my blog a personal style one! Also first posts are written in Portuguese, then written in both Portuguese and English, and then decided to only use English till now!

Happy Blog Birthday! :)

Grandpa cardigans are great, aren't they? I really like the color of the one you're wearing. And, I agree with the comment you left on my blog: dark green is the perfect winter color.

I'm loving the red lipstick on you! You should wear it more often. I guess it's something about the fair complexion and dark hair combination! ;) Which reminds me, thank you for your sweet compliment!

Happy blogiversary! And I love your (or your sister's) grandpa cardigan. I think winter encourages the inner grandpa in all of us. I was eyeing up my boyfriend's grandpa's cardigan yesterday, but decided that you probably shouldn't steal clothes from old people... ; )

Happy Blogiversary! ^_^ This is one of my favorite places to stop. You always have great photos and witty content. And I enjoy the mixture of English and Portuguese, it's a lot like my family! ;) Please keep up the great blogging!
