You Know What I Mean

Since wednesday I've been in my bf's town - Lamego - and a few days ago him and Mariana decided to tour me around the city to show me the prettiest places.

Lamego is an old city with a lot of monuments and a little castle. It is what I call "a perfect place to spend summer". I love when cities have a history and are decorated with old monuments and old houses. I guess that's one of the reasons why I love Europe so much!

I was supposed to go to a music festival but sadly I couldn't get the ticket in time and spending a few days in Lamego was a great choice so I wouldn't get depressed for not seeing The Strokes, Arcade Fire and Beirut live. But the great thing is that I have another summer festival to go this next weekend. I bet Milhões de Festa in Barcelos is going to be pretty awesome too.

I haven't wore this dress in ages (ok, in months) and now that I did it I realized that I'm a bit chubbier ahah. I love junk food and pasta and that's all I've been eating in the past months but I guess I need to start taking care of my health and start eating healthier things. So, any food blogs suggestions?

Oh, and talking about suggestions! Since I need a haircut so badly I'm going to cut and dye it this week. I'm not sure what am I going to do or what color I'm going to choose but any ideia would be really welcome!

Summer Sales + Update

Hello! Yes, I'm alive and ready to be a proper blogger again! I've been absent because all the university exams I've been doing lately but the great thing is that my summer break is here and I can't wait to enjoy summer. I'm not sure what to do. During winter I always have in my mind all this great things to do during summer but when the time of doing those things arrive I always lay in my couch and do nothing.

So, since I don't have any outfit pictures to post, I'd like to show you some of the things I bought in this sales. I finally bought a midi skirt and a crochet collar, yey for that! And that lovely bag? I had second toughts before I bought it but now I couldn't be happier with it. It's perfect and has the perfect size so I can carry a book and my camera! (By the way, what do you think of the idea of having a "What's in my bag?" kind of post? It's a bit cliché indeed but I realized that I've never done anything like that!)

Anyway, I'll try to have a few guests everytime I need to get away from the internet world this summer so Green Grass Black Clouds don't get cobwebs. Also, you can also check my inspiration tumblr and my facebook. I usualy update them both!

(Little note in portuguese: Desde o início escrevi em inglês porque quis que o meu blog fosse compreendido por pessoas em todo o mundo mas tenho vindo a reparar que cada vez mais há pessoas que falam português que seguem o blog. A minha pergunta é: Gostariam que começasse a escrever em português também? As vossas opiniões são muito importantes! Obrigada! ♥)
