English version retired

It's been very difficult to be able to manage family life, professional life and two blogs! You might have noticed already since I haven't been updating the blog for a while!

So, I apologise for all the English readers of Reparando em Tudo, but unfortunately I won't be able to continue posting in two languages. I'm adding a google translator tool to the blog though, so you can still read the Portuguese version of it translated into English. I know it's not the best solution in the world, but until I can manage to get my life on track again I will have to retire the English version for a while.

Hope to see you around and thanks for understanding.

High heels in Barcelona?

After almost 15 months without wearing high heels (I've retired them temporarily when I found out I was pregnant of little M.), today I've decided to bring my camel sandals to life. On my way to work I remembered sadly why I avoid wearing high heels in Barcelona:

1. The side walk patterns (with all the little cute flowers and squares) destroy the heels

2. Twist your ankle is not fun 

3. Looking stupid trying to manage your balance

I'm back

What better way to return blogging than with a Vanessa Paradis making of video for the new Chanel lipstick ad? She looks amazing by the way!

We've been very busy with our 'little man' that next week will be 4 months old. I've been updating my mummy's blog regularly and I must admit that I haven't been able to do the same with Reparando but I promise to return soon. Watch this space.
