Sunday Shopping

My sandwich chicken breast, cheese, lettuce, and onions with mayonnaise, warmed of course

the perfect combination

on me; blazer, j.crew; tank-top, victorias secret; jeans, rich & skinny; flats, juicy couture; my favorite bag; botiker

Instead on focusing on my finals that are quickly approaching my mind was still focused on shopping so, I took some time away from the books and onto the streets of Madrid. For days I have been fantasizing about a cute lace top I found at Topshop and went into the store lucky enough to come out with just that top and not the whole store. Knowing that studying for finals was coming soon (as soon as I got home) my iced latte stayed in my hand all day. While searching for a quick place to eat I found a new brand of Tyrrell's chips the flavor, strawberry,sweet chili, & white wine. As soon as I saw that combination I knew I had to try them (they were delicious!). So I grabbed a bag and headed to my favorite sandwich shop in my neighborhood, La Ria De Arosa knowing that they would be a match mad in food heaven. And they were! Now on to my second coffee of the day & actually studying. Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!

P.S - Thank you to everyone who is following my blog. You are all amazing! XO

Sunday used to remind me of one thing; my busy week ahead so, I dressed it up to be the funnest day of the week. With an earlier curfew, relaxation, and de-stressing on my mind I look forward to my favorite, shopping. 

Sunday in Barcelona stirred up my day with almost every shopping boutique and store closed. So, I took the day to visit the gorgeous museums by Gaudi (which reminds me of window shopping in a way because you get to see all the art but not take anything home with you) and just relax in the park by Port Vell with my boyfriend. How much better can Sunday get?

My favorite Barcelona Sunday stops:

Casa Batllo- an apartment complex built by Gaudi with no straight lines. there are fireplaces shaped like mushrooms and a beautiful rooftop. i can't imagine actually living there!

Museu Picasso- a collection of mansions lined with pictures by Pablo Picasso. there is a whole room dedicated to his version of Las Meninas which is so creative, in his own way.

Port Vell- this Port reminds me of the Baltimore Port but with couples and groups laying out everywhere to soak in the sun

Park Guell- when I entered the main entrance there were two large gingerbread houses on each side which made me feel like I was Gretel from Hansel and Gretel
La Sagrada Familia- Gaudi's church created to look like a dripping sand castle
