“You mean it?” Javi’s voice is a threaded whisper, his blown eyes glittering with deep emotion.
You nod, unable to speak past the lump in your throat.
The words don’t matter. Javi huffs a breath of relief, breaks into a disbelieving smile that shatters and swells your heart in equal measure.
You swallow hard, find your voice. “Can you put it on me, please?”
Javi inhales sharply. “Yeah.”
You turn away from him, gathering your hair over your head to expose your nape. Javi’s body hovers warm and solid over your back, his arm brushing your cheek as he sweeps around you. You read the weight of the moment in the way his breaths puff hot and rapid at your neck, in the slight tremor of his fingers as he fiddles with the clasp. After a long, tense second, Javi sighs deeply, and the pendant settles at the hollow of your throat, warm and delicate as if it has always belonged there.
Javi presses even closer, hooks his chin over your shoulder, folding his hands over your naked belly. “Look at you,” he murmurs. When you meet his gaze in the mirror, his eyes are burning. “Eres todo lo que he querido. Mi bella esposa.” He presses a searing kiss to the patch of skin just behind your ear. “My Hannah.”
Here’s what a full day of eating looks like for me on most days! I prefer eating three larger meals, with 1-2 snacks in between (just depends how I feel on the day)..but lots of micronutrient rich foods, at least 120flOz of water, and things that TASTE GOOD 🙌🏻 - breakfast: spinach, mushrooms, turkey sausage crumbles, tomatoes & egg white omelette with @vansfoods blueberry waffles. THE BEST gf waffles out there. - lunch: giant warm kale salad with roasted chick peas, cherry tomatoes, bbq chicken thighs & Japanese sweet potatoes. - pre workout snack: @siggisdairy with two crumbled @alyssascookies on top - dinner: wild boar burger on a pretzel bun, topped with a fried egg, @goveggiefoods cheddar, and some jellyfish jelly 🤣🤣 (kidding it’s the jam I posted the other day) I also had a bowl of oatmeal before bed..been doing that for years and it’s my favorite bedtime snack that keeps me full through the night! I don’t follow a specific “diet” or restrict things. If I want to have something, I will have it. But for the majority of my intake, this is what it looks like! @blackironnutrition #BlackIronNutrition #FullDayOfEating #Iif #Nutrition #FlexibleDieting #Recipe #GoodEats (at Davenport, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwFBCe4nDsX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ar7zpsc9s4vk
After the first part of our 2014 Instagram Fashion Roundup, I’ve decided to bring you the second serving since you’re not the only ones who are eaaaager to take a closer look at the gorgeous garments Gaga wore in her Jazz-accented era.
"My 'unwrapping my shoppin' outfit #ladiesnight #getthewine 👗👠👜💋"” Gaga instagrammed on July 6th after a huge shopping trip at Divine Decadence Originals in Toronto.
The singer wore a yellow and blue gingham print V-neck top and matching scarf she styled as a headband by Missoni.
On July 11, Gaga showed off the outfit she wore to meet fans after her show in Chicago.
The light short-sleeved bouclé jacket with buttoned front and matching pencil skirt are from Chanel’s Spring/Summer 2009 prêt-à-porter collection, sourced from I Miss You Vintage.
Her fine sheer daisy lace corset with garters is a 1950s piece from Warner’s "Merry Widow" line which Gaga found at Divine Decadence Originals.
Warner’s released its first line of "Merry Widow" foundation garments in 1952. The collection was inspired by the release that same year of the movie "The Merry Widow", whose star, Lana Turner, was featured wearing an elaborate, long-line corset.
"Me and @jeffkoonsstudio giving a group chat today. Asia came along too, she dressed me." Gaga mingled among the guests at Yellowstone Club on July 18, wearing another Chanel creation - this time from the Pre-Fall 2008 “Paris-London” Métiers d’Art collection!
The short-sleeved black bouclé jacket and balloon skirt set boast jewel-embroidered floral buttons, pockets, stand-up collar and hem. And yes, this is yet another I Miss You Vintage discovery.
On the same day she took a flight in a helicopter, rocking a vintage beaded coat from Carolina Herrera’s Fall/Winter 2002 collection. This romantic beauty features a floral pattern all over.
Underneath she wore her favorite vintage Iron Maiden distressed shirt.
The oversized black frames are the Ultra Goliath II sunglasses are from the Vintage Frames Company x Goliath “Dr. Shapiro” collection.
Back on January 22, Gaga posted a selfie on Little Monsters with the caption “#GunnarSelfie. I love these glasses. Patented technology, keep my eyes from computer/phone screen stinging. #DOPE”.
The vintage 1980s IIF orange & black suede jacket with round, gold-tone studs was customized by DOG owner Kai Satake with various Medusa medaillons, rectangular metal appliqués and many other elements.
The glasses are the GUNNAR Intercept glasses in “Fire”.
With the introduction of the INTERCEPT Color Collection, they’ve given everyone, from hardcore gamers to creative designers to technophiles of all types, a chance to show off their individuality and style – while protecting and enhancing their vision.
On November 18, Gaga posted a photo of herself signing copies of 'Cheek to Cheek’.
She wore Matthew Adams Dolan’s Spring/Summer 2015 blue loose-fit denim jeans with fringe details on the sides and open leg along with a vintage Mötley Crüe band tee.
“Heathrow baby, on to the next flight Geoffrey Beene Vintage on the plane and some panther earrings 🐾 meow I can’t wait to see my fans in Dubai one more flight!“ were the words that accompanied Gaga’s selfie on September 8.
She sported vintage Geoffrey Beene. This satin dress belongs to his Fall/Winter 1983 collection and boasts quilted red panels, a slit neck and gold embroidery.
Pictured above is a similar jacket and dress from the same collection.
The Italian-American beauty accessorized with a pair of custom shades that little monster and young hobby designer Daniel Stephen made for her.
Her panther door knocker earrings are vintage Ciner with diamante and green eyes set in gold tone metal, dating back to the 1960s.
She also sported this Tiffany & Co. 18k yellow-gold bow twist wire ring on her pinky finger!
The same day she posted this adorable bedtime selfie with the caption "And now it's sleepy time, I'm meeting Asia in Dubai but I miss her so I dressed like a jazzy 🐷😂".
She’s looking cozy and adorable in this Kigurumi Shop fleece pig onesie which features a buttoned front and the cutest piggy face on the hood!
Emerging market portfolio Flows Normalize After January Surge
China’s role in the flows picture remains distinct. The country recorded just $0.4 billion in debt inflows, while EM excluding China absorbed $13.8 billion. Regionally, debt allocations were broadly distributed: EM Asia received $5.9 billion, Latin America $4.3 billion, EM Europe $2.6 billion, and MENA $1.5 billion. This breadth underscores the appeal of carry trades in local debt markets where policy credibility and predictable funding conditions sustain investor confidence.
