I love stripes, LOVE military jackets, love mini skirts, now put them all together and I get my perfect outfit :)

I got these boots at ZARA and I LOVE THEM! They are surprisingly comfortable although they are extremely high (13 cm heels)
I always get asked about my height, I am 1.80 cm, pretty tall for a Mexican girl.

I have to confess that wearing high heels while I was still living in Mexico was pretty much impossible, not because I didn't like them but I was already way taller than all my friends so wearing high heels in parties and clubs was a bit awkward for me, plus there was always the odd loser trying to make fun of how tall I was.

Its funny how things change and how your opinion about yourself changes all the time.

I am so grateful for my height nowadays and I absolutely embrace it, thats why I wear high heels all the time and Im not planning to stop.

XOXO
Andy

You are lucky for being tall. Sometimes we don´t consider the good things about ourselves. Your look is great. Perfect combo. I like all the pieces too.

i love the look, am i right that you are 1,80m tall and with these boots 1.93m?
wow,how cool is that?
i wouldn't expect you to be that tall (i am your size, too :) )
but i think your choice of clothing is very flattering for that height.i had my problems with this height,too but i get use to it with the age :D
best greetings from germany :)

1.80? vaya que eres alta! jamás lo habría adivinado.podrías ser modelo con esa estatura.pero te entiendo, ahora las niñas crecen más que los niños por acá D:

y concuerdo con que esos zapatos son comodísimos.

Talia said...

amazing military jacket. You look fantastic. I want to have such necklace with my name too on Christmas ;p

Seriale-modeuse said...

Oh, I'm 1,77m and I only wear flats. Maybe I should buy some insane heels ^^

Georgia said...

Oh, the back detail on your jacket is great. I love the white piping
ALSO, you are so lucky to have the option of not wearing heels and being a good height! I'm so averagely short..
It would be mine

redheadfashionista said...

Hi Andy, been following your blog for a while - LOVE those boots by the way, I only wear platforms myself as they are the only way I can go for more than 10 minutes without crippling pain!
Was just wondering where you got that peace sign pendant, you wear it a lot! I have one too from a company called Thomas Sabo - check them out, you will LOVE them as it's all silver and they did a whole 'hippy child' range this summer!
Keep up the good blogging :) RedHeadFashionista

I am about 1.85 and loveee to wear heels! I also recognize the awkwardness. But tall is beautiful!

I absolutely love the shoes and your whole blog as well!

gosia said...

OMG, you're tall:) I'm 175 and I never dare to wear heels...maybe I should try;p

Dana said...

I'm 175 cm tall myself and I used to absolutely hate being tall when I was younger. now I'm so thankful for my height!
so yeah, I just had to share my thoughts about it hehe.
as for your outfit, it's the perfect combination - love it :)

Tres Chic!!

Fashion Therapist said...

I'm loving that military jacket. It's so cute and I love the details.

Camila said...

I check your blog everyday although I never comment. First of all, your blog is great and your sense of style is perfect.
I decided to comment today cause I can relate myself to what you said about being tall. I am brazilian, same height of yours which means way taller than most of girls here, so of course I was too ashamed to wear heels when I was younger. Our opinion really changes, thank God(:
I wear heels all the time now!
xx,
Camila.

Andy, yo mido 1.70, y tienes razón cuando eres chica la gente se burla de lo "larga" que te ves. Yo también agradezco mi altura :)

ANDY said...

Thank you so much for all the lovely comments!

Yeah, the jacket is from ZARA's new season...

I dont know if you knew this, but XOXO actually exists long ago before Gossip Girl.

Perfect proportions! The belted top goes so well with that jacket where those boots make your legs infinite!

Anonymous said...

tienes unas piernas kilométricas que son de lo más sensual...oye...y no tienes problemas para encontrar pantys de tallas grandes para tu altura??? Yo mido como tú y me veo negro para encontrarlos, la mayoría se deslizan por la entrepierna y hay que andar subiendolos...

Cuatrojos said...

q pasada tu blog!no m canso!no veas como estoy flipando!!!

Ier said...

So cool to see you're also quite tall, and you just wear heels. I'm 1.78 or so, and I'm in heaven with my new Acne Admires that just came in ;)

Love your blog Andy!
