Ethnic Blouse & The Village Museum

Hello, ladies! I hope you had a relaxing weekend! Today I've spent a quiet and very pleasant day at the Village Museum. I haven't visited this beautiful place since my childhood years, so it was lovely to be here again :) The museum looked wonderful and the old traditional houses reminded me of my summer vacations spent at my grandparents' house, in the countryside. I will be definitely returning again to this museum since I had such a nice and relaxing time.

Moving on to the outfit I wore, I chose a loose ethnic blouse from Mango, which in a way reminded me of our national traditional costume, a pair of light blue jeans and some cute and feminine sandals (both items are from Zara). Th reason for which I chose a casual clutch instead of a bag is because it was very hot and I didn't want to carry anything heavy or really close to my body (if that makes sense). I love how this coral clutch from Accessorize offers the much needed pop of colour to my outfit. 

So here you have it, a casual easy breezy outfit. Make sure you check all the photos for some nice shots of the traditional houses you can find in the museum. 

Have a great week!

Elegant Lace Dress

 

Hello everyone! I'm back with a brand new outfit post, a more elegant one, since I was invited to a christening ceremony. The weather was great, very sunny and hot, even though I'm not particularly pleased that the weather is this hot in May. I'm kind of dreading the thought of having 4 months of 30+ degrees.

 

Anyway, for the occasion I chose a monochromatic outfit, consisting of a midi dress with lace pattern, a black and white blazer and a pair of black pumps. It feels nice to get all dolled up from time to time, don't you agree?

Blazer - H&M

Dress - Dorothy Perkins

Clutch - Accessorize

Pumps - Humanic

 

 

Have a great week!

Tennis Day Two - Denim on Denim

 

Hello, loves! I'm back with my second outfit from last week, when an ATP tennis tournament took place in Bucharest. The weather was and still is extremely hot for this period. It seems as if we blinked and missed spring. This is why I wore an almost summery outfit, with lots of denim and stripes. I love pairing this light blue denim jacket from Stradivarius with dark coloured jeans and a striped top because I think the result is rather trendy and modern. Accessories wise, I chose a belt to accentuate my waist and my spacious and extremely loved Modalu Pippa Grab, perfect for a busy day.

I really love this outfit since it is on the sporty and comfy side but it feels rather chic and feminine :)

My soon to be home...in my dreams maybe :D

 

I wish you all a wonderful May! Take care x

Tennis Outfit - Day One

What's this? Could this be a new outfit post?? I am probably as amazed as you are that I finally took some outfit photos :)) This is what I wore a few days ago to a tennis match, when the weather was still normal and hadn't decided to skip spring like it did today when we had around 28 degrees. In the past years, when I went to tennis tournaments I wore feminine and smart casual outfits, but this year I decided to let my sporty side out and I really loved the results.

Anyway, this outfit was really simple but I loved how all the pieces looked when put together. This is my new denim jacket from Mango and I'm obsessed with it. I want to wear it all the time and with every clothing piece I own. I also love how the red scarf made this outfit really pop. This is definitely one of my favourite posts!

Have a wonderful weekend and see you soon with my tennis outfit no. 2!

Spring is Here!

 

 

Hello girls! I know it's been a while since I last posted, but here I am again with a spring outfit post :D We had a lovely weather last weekend so I decided to play the tourist in my own city and take a long walk in the old city centre. I took advantage of the beautiful weather and took some pictures of my favourite places in Bucharest. I'll show you some of them in a future post, I promise :)

 

I also took some outfit pictures since I was wearing a bit of colour, perfect for a sunny spring day. I couldn't pass the opportunity of wearing my bright scarf from Zara, which I bought last summer and which was perfect for the occasion. The mint jumper is a recent buy from H&M. I love this colour I couldn't wait to show it to you. I'm pretty sure they still have it in the shops, so if you like it too, run to your nearest H&M and try it on :) The rest...you've seen it before in previous posts, except maybe the leather jacket. I adore it! It's so soft and the colour is perfect. It's definitely in my top 5 favourite clothing pieces.

 



Scarf - Zara

Jumper - H&M

Leather jacket - from my trip to Rome

Cross body bag - River Island

Jeggins - Zara

Boots - Ken's Shoes

 

I practically lived in this jegging this winter. They are the most comfortable pair of pants I own. This is why they appear in all of my outfit posts. Just felt the need to point that out :))

Anyway, have a lovely rest of the week!

Lots of love

February through My Phone

On the last day of February I wanted to show you some of the hightlights of this month which is so special to me. All in all I had a really busy month, full of excitement and some interesting opportunities. Not to mention that a few days ago I celebrated my 25th birthday! It feels so epic :))

 

Enough with the blabber, here are some photos I took this month:

 

Birthday outfit - I decided to wear my favourite Topshop jumper which has a lovely beaded neckline. I had such a lovely day, mostly thanks to my wonderful family!

My birthday cake! Yumm!// Some of the gorgeous flowers I received on my birthday. I love spring flowers, they smell divine!

 

My latest order from Topshop: a beautifully embroidered jumper and a new leather chain wallet// The products I used for my birthday celebration makeup.

My new scarf from the Zara sales// New draped jumper from Asos and new necklace from Accessorize (ignore the tired face).



The pretty violet from my office bloomed// Some gorgeous tulips I received on Valentine's Day. 



 The salad I made for my Mum's birthday// Watching Marie Antoinette...again...for the millionth time :D

 

 

That's all guys, what have you been up to this February? Was it a good month for you?

Outfit Post: Draped Hem Jumper

Hello beautiful ladies! What have you been up to lately? I've been really busy with work and other projects, and this is why I really neglected blogging. But here I am again, back with an outfit post.

I wanted to show you my newest love, namely this blue jumper from Asos. I ordered it two weeks ago and it came on Monday and I really really really love it. It is very soft and light on the skin, but my favourite thing about it is its draped hem, which is actually the reason for which I bought it in the first place. (If you like the jumper you should know that they also have it in white and black)

 

Anyway, today I went for a bit of shopping with my mum and this is what I decided to wear (btw, you should really visit H&M during this period because they have some really beautiful pieces). I know that my outfits tend to be quite similar, but to be honest this is what I love to wear most during winter: nice jumper, black jeans or jeggins and boots. I think this has become some sort of uniform :))

 

Draped hem jumper - Asos

Necklace - Accessorize

Jeggins - Zara

Black leather bag - Zara

Boots - Il Passo

 

I hope you are having an amazing weekend!

Beaded Denim Shirt

Hello girls! I hope you had a lovely weekend! Sorry for the lack of posts lately, but it's really hard for me to post more often since now I have two jobs and my free time can be very limited at times. But you know I love blogging and I will try and post at least once a week. 

Anyway, back to the outfit, this is what I wore today for a bit of sale shopping. The denim shirt is  a recent purchase and it has become one of my favourite items of clothing, mostly thanks to the beaded collar. I'm a sucker for everything which has pearls attached to it, or other feminine subtle details for that matter. Also, my obsession for this Zara bag hasn't faded, since I still feed the need to carry it everywhere I go :)) 

 

Denim shirt - Stradivarius

Jumper - Zara

Jeggins - Zara

Boots - Ken's Shoes (Belgium)

Leather bag with zips - Zara

I wish you all an amazing week! I'm personally very excited for next week since the European Skating Championships start, and I'm a huge skating fan. So yeah, I'm looking forward to that :)

Au revoir, lovelies x 

NYE Outfit

 

Happy New Year, lovelies! I hope 2013 is going to be exactly as you imagine it to be and more! Just a quick outfit post to show you what I wore yesterday evening. And what other pose says winter holidays better than the traditional "next to the Christmas tree" pose? I just couldn't resist it :) Anyway, I chose this gorgeous black lace dress from Topshop (you can find it here) which actually arrived just a few days before the big night. It is so flattering and qualitative and it has become my favourite party dress. Accessory wise, I opted for a golden statement necklace from New Look and a cocktail ring.

For my make-up I chose a golden-bronzy smoky eye with nude lips, but unfortunately my "amazing" phone wasn't able to capture it properly...

 

At midnight I went to the city centre to watch the beautiful fireworks show which lasted around 15 minutes. I had a beautiful night spent with the persons which matter the most to me. I hope you too had a wonderful night and that you are going to have an amazing 2013!

Lots of love x

 

PhoneCam Style Post

Hello sweeties! I really need your opinion on something. As you know, I love fashion and outfit posts, but unfortunately I don't always have the time or mood for proper style posts, shot on location or in high quality. This is why some of my outfit posts are sometimes shot with my phone in my bedroom and my background consists of my bed or my desk or other boring interiors.  Thus, I was thinking that if it's OK with you, I could do more outfit posts shot with my phone, like this one. I know the quality is really poor, but at least there would hopefully be more style posts on the blog. Or would you prefer me to do the regular, more qualitative ones, even though they will be really seldom? I would really appreciate your feedback, so please tell me what you think in the comments box below.

 

Jumper - Love

Bowling bag with zips - Zara

Jeggins - Zara

 

Back to the purpose of this post, this is the outfit I wore a couple of days ago to the movies. I love this heart jumper because besides being a bit on the festive side thanks to its colours, it is also very comfortable and fun. I couldn't resist leaving my new bag at home because I was eager to take it out for a spin since I like it sooo much. I love the fact that it has an additional shoulder strap so that you can wear it on your shoulder if it gets too heavy. Inevitably, it seems that I have another bag crush. Shocking, I know...

 

Anyway, that's it from me now. I hope you are all doing wonderful and you've already written your new year's resolutions! Lots of love x

 

My Favourite Outfit

It's that time of the year again, the time of OOTDs shot indoors because a) it gets dark at 5 p.m. when people are usually still at work, and b) it's freezing cold outside to take photos in just a jumper/ shirt/ dress. So, from now on, please excuse the "interesting" decor :) I should also add that I'm soooo self-conscious when it comes to taking outfit pics outside because I am too shy and I feel like everybody is staring and judging me, so in a way I prefer indoor pics, even though they are less interesting. Anyway, looking at these photos I've noticed that my face looks kind of weird (I look so bored and tired) and I don't know why. Maybe I'm not a photogenic person when it comes to indoor pics? But I don't mind it that much since the focus should be on the clothes; so just ignore my weird facial expressions :))

Moving on now, to the real reason of this post, this is one of my favourite outfits for winter...very comfortable yet a bit chic, don't you think? My favourite piece from this outfit are the tan boots. Where should I start describing how much I love them? I know I bought a new pair less than a month ago, but I saw this super gorgeous pair during my trip to Brussels and I thought I should treat myself to an early Christmas present. But more about them in a future post where I will tell you all about them. The jumper is another purchase from Brussels and it is now one of my favourite jumpers because it has a lovely colour, an interesting design with a lower back and it is sewed with a metallic thread. The bag is around three years old but it's still one of my favourites and the snood seems to be the perfect choice for these cold days. All in all, a very comfortable outfit in which I feel great! Hope you like it!

 

Snood - New Look

Jumper - New Look

Bag- Peek and Cloppenburg (old)

What do you think? What is your to go outfit this season? x

Indian Summer Nights

 

 

Happy 1st of October, I hope this is going to be an amazing month for all of us! At the moment we are experiencing some sort of a heatwave in Bucharest with temperatures of 30 degrees. I never thought I would be wearing shorts in October and other summary clothes but our weather never ceases to amaze us. I must say I absolutely love this weather but in a way I miss those chilly autumn days and my autumn wardrobe.

 

Anyway, this is what I wore a few days ago to a lovely Lebanese dinner. I know these are not the best of outfit pics but since you can have dinner only in the evening I had to settle with these night time photos. I know this is not a very glamorous outfit but I chose to be more comfortable...more me, hence I chose a pair of denim shorts, ballet flats and a sequined sweater to jazz up my outfit a bit. I love this sweater and I cannot wait to wear it more. Also, if the bag looks familiar to you it's maybe because I have the same one in white, but I loved it so much that I decided to buy the black version also.

 

 

Sweater - Zara

Denim shorts - Stradivarius

Bag - River Island

Flats - Humanic

Bracelet - Accessorize

 

I know this is a rather simple look but I felt great wearing it. I am sure you've noticed by now that I prefer simple outfits and that I am no fashion maverick. But this is my style and I love it nevertheless. Give me a pair of fitted jeans, a nice blouse and some ballet flats and I'm ready to conquer the world :))

Have a beautiful week x
