Hello readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I shall review The Long Petal of the Sea, a novel by Chilean-American writer Isabel Allende. I bought this second hand copy in Split this Summer, and read it in a heartbeat. Published in 2019, A Long Petal of the Sea is one of Allende's more recent works. Allende herself describes it in her Preface as 'a story of displacement and love, of sorrow and hope, of a couple trying to find their place in a world torn apart by violence'. The novel is told by fictional characters but it features real historical figures such as Pablo Neruda whose poetical description of Chile the author borrowed for the title of the novel. Yes, it was Neruda who described Chile as the long petal of the sea. Despite being a minor character, the famous Novel winning poet at times plays a key part in the novel's plot, from organizing the flight of Spanish refuges to embodying Chile's national spirit. Moreover, The Long Petal of the Sea, ...

This coat looks very elegance, the colour as well. But there are 2 things i would chance:
ReplyDelete1. please wear a other belt. this thin belt looks "lost" on you. Take a big/wide belt or wear it without a belt.
2. your black opaque tights are a little boring. i would love to see you in pattern tights in combo to your coat. i would maybe wear bordeaux tights (with a nice pattern) - the colour of your handbag. i think that would work.
Your thoughts?
Bye.

I think this was the only time I wore it with this thin belt and I kind of liked it but I think it looks best without a belt. I still have this coat so I will consider wearing it with a wide belt.
DeleteYour idea to wear a patterend tights with this soft blue coat is great. I think I will try it soon.
sounds great!!!
