My gifts to myself

 

 Told you I had to brag about what I got for my birthday. 

First things first: heels! Slim and chunky, I love them both. I already wore the navy sandals but the black ones, oh boy, I can't wait!

 Both from Stradivarius.

 

This very lovely dress I found while thrifting, I love the print, the volume and the length! 

Perfect for Summer.

 

These very cute flats I am eager to wear as soon as they loosen up a bit. 

Bought from HERE 

Finally I found a simple but lovely black dress at H&M made from a very nice fabric that isn't chiffon. It can be worn both in the daylight and for cocktail events.

It's about two size bigger but that isn't something I can't fix. This way, the length is longer, which is perfect for me!

 And it was the only one left in store. 

Aaaaaand how cute is this vintage purse? I fell in love with it and the very cool color. This photo just doesn't do it any justice.

That's about it (for now).

Have a fantastic day lovelies!

Another year older

 

 The beginning of a new month and the beginning of a new year for me started with a cloudy day but turned into a sunny warm one, thank God! 

 Turning 24 is like going home on the same path everyday - it makes no difference at all. After you pass the age of 20, you kind of loose count. Perhaps next year I will take on another path, who knows?

 After a change of plans, I decided to remain in the city which of course was not that crowded with people, because since 1st of May means something like Labour Day here, everybody left for their mini-holidays.

So I took advantage of my free day, went out and took photos (how about my new thrifted dress?)
The blazer is part of the gift my lovely house mates gave me for my birthday, thank you giiiirls!

   

Afterwards, we went at this lovely place, highly appreciated here for their food and sweets (it's called Camino) Too bad I forgot to take more pictures to show them to you. In any case, it looks very vintage and cute.

And I treated myself with this holy apple cake with vanilla cream - it was rainbow in my mouth!

Of course, how else to end my day without some shopping?
I spent a lot, but I thought "whatever, it's my birthday" -  and now I have to keep my money only for food for the rest of the month, how boring
I will show you soon what I bought!

Hope you all had a great day yesterday and I wish you all a great one today, after all, the partying is not over.

Wearing: thrifted dress and belt, H&M necklace, Asos shoes, Parfois earrings, Primark thrifted bag, Stradivarius blazer.

TGIF! Yesterday felt like a Friday all day long, so waking up this morning was hard! The good news is... TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY!! I seriously LOVE birthdays, and I am so excited to have my birthday on a Saturday so that I get to spend the entire day with my H.
