Precious things

 

 I just got back from a antique market (which is held here in Cluj once a month) where I found that porcelain box and two pairs of vintage earrings. I always get so excited when I learn about this type of fairs, mostly because you can find unique stuff and also that have a history. Really, I wanted to go home with one hundred things from there, but considering my budget, that would've ment to remain broke and also sell some of my body parts. Seriously, I don't think some of the stuff there are really authentic anyway, but the merchants still sell them on sky-high prices. 

This necklace is from Stradivarius and so are the black and white earrings from above (hello sales!)

 

 The sandals are from MiniPrix and I haven't even got a chance to wear them, thanks to the pouring rain from the past few days.

   

 And I am sure most of you already know about Nina by Nina Ricci, one of my favorite perfumes. I wish my skin would already have that scent!

Have a wonderful rest of the weekend guys!

 

Cooler than the red dress

Remember this song? 

That is the first song that came into my mind when I saw these photos, haha - narcissistic much?

I had this beautiful dress from Sheinside for a while now and I couldn't wait to wear it at this wedding I had to go the other day. I especially loved the back, that was the first thing that caught my attention, then there is the color (it also comes in black). What I was anxious about, was the length, I am not necessarilly a fan of ankle length dresses, I think they look kind of funny, and even though I measured myself, I thought, "oh well, maybe it will still look good". 

 This is how I wore it for the wedding reception, with a massive statement necklace, red lips - of course - and a hairdo that gave me some head aches while making it myself. 

 I look like a lady now but picture this: standing in that dress in front of McDonald's waiting for my ride, eating french fries with ten pigeons around me - even I laughed at the situation. Classy right? At least they ate from my hand, which was cute enough.

 

Wearing: Sheinside dress, Deichmann shoes, no name necklace, vintage earrings.

 

Casual, but not ordinary

No heels, no fancy dress, no elegant tiny purse. But it's a short dress and I have bold colors and a casual statement necklace. As long as you have at least one great accessory, it completely takes your outfit out of the ordinary. 

You ladies know I am right. 

We sometimes say that we take a break from heels and wear flats instead, well, let me tell you that I am craving for anything else now, except those flat shoes that almost killed my feet. They were too tight. And of course when you first try them on and walk a few steps in the store, they feel perfectly fine. Yeah.. not these. Luckily I have other pairs I get along with very well. Sometimes I am lucky, sometimes I am not. That goes for every type of shoe out there, my feet are strange. 

And I am wearing a Zara necklace paired with a random dress found long ago in a thrift shop. Who says they don't match and who says you should wear brands from head to toe? I find that really ridiculous, for sure.

   

Wearing: thrifted dress, bag and belt, no name shoes and sunglasses, Zara necklace, Only T shirt

 

Desaturation

 

 Slowly turning into a monochrome-fashion-phase? Hmm..not quite, I still feel the need to add some color on me (and the haircolor doesn't count!) and around me, even though listening to The Black Keys, drinking wine and run from responsabilities beats my own rules. Not that I have that many. 

In any case, I am happy the snow has gone away - hopefully it won't come back anytime soon - I am also happy I finally purchased one of my favorite perfumes "Nina" by Nina Ricci and not that happy that I can't seem to find a simple basic white shirt - sorry, ANOTHER simple basic white shirt. 

Enough babbling, just go out being feminie and pretty. It's all that matters!

   

  Wearing: H&M sweater, thrifted hat, no name necklace and bag, MiniPrix.ro skirt, Deichmann boots, borrowed belt

 

In colder pastels

 

 It's really weird for me to dress up like this in December! For the past few days it feels more like a rainy warm Spring. In a way I prefer this to the snow and unbearable cold, but Christmas is approaching, and I am almost done decorating, but that cozy, specific Christmas spirit is missing.. Now I realise I could never live in Florida, South America or L.A. in this period of time!

 Even so, I choose to wear cold pastels, and you know, I created the outfit based on that bag (which resembles the Celine Phantom bag a bit) and I just love that moment when I see how everything just fits together!

  Wearing: no name sweater, vintage skirt and belt, Sheinside necklace, Leonardo boots, no name bag.

 

Flowers in december

 Proudly wearing my new favorite necklace - couldn't be more colorful and sparkly, I know - paired with my fluffy angora sweater and beret, just a perfect start for this month! All that was missing was snow, although I am not really looking forward to it just yet..
 Everything fit together when we made these photos, it was quite late and cold and I was almost certain that it was already too late for a photo shooting, but when we saw this beautiful sunset light, it took no more second thoughts and about ten minutes and made the impossible happen! Too bad the sun went so fast and it was already so cold, we would've love to play a little more.
Okay.. now I need to find my courage and get to work..Listening to Nouvelle Vague and drinking mint tea seems the best option for me right now.

 

Wearing: thrifted sweater, bag and beret, necklace bought at a fair, selfmade skirt, Deichmann boots, H&M rings.

New items in my wonders!

Remember how last weekend I went shopping? Well, here are the goodies I bought (also include the sweatshirt from the previous post) and which I can't wait to wear. I wanted to brag about it, because that is what I usually do, online and offline. Yes, I am a proud being. Anyway, now I am almost broke and still, I continue to make new shopping lists - this will not end, I tell you!

   

 Have a fantastic weekend darlings!

 This time I will spend it cooking! Wish me luck.
