Preview of one of the major fashion events in Romania!

galauad5 

 Yesterday evening I had the pleasure to attend the UAD Gala, meaning our very own fashion students presented their graduate collections just like I did last year in Bucharest. I must say though, the differences between the two events (even if they intend to be the same thing) are so big, I just couldn't comprehend why is it so. 
First, there is the location, which was a hotel so glamorous, so grand, so amazing which provided another important thing: the space - huge space, everybody could attend and had a seat! Then there is this feeling of an important event, and it actually is in our country, since you get to go there based on invitation only. And there were journalists, photographers, TV personalities, you know..the important people.
  Everything was beautiful and very well put together. From the stage, to the lights and the collections themselves, I was utterly amazed by the whole event. Plus, I got a very great spot to take pictures, but I will show them soon enough. For now I leave you with some of the backstage ones and a sneak peak of what you are going to expect from these marvelous students.

Relax, take it easy

loi4

Ever since I finished my work for University a few days ago, I realized I have a full week just to myself, a week in which I can enjoy the delights of Mad Men and delicious frappes. Last night I went celebrating with the girls at a retro party, we danced all night long and I woke up in the dark because of the autumn clouds and pouring rain, with my feet hurting and a mammoth size hunger. All is fiiine, this is what I call relaxation! Soon I have to start packing and move away for the Summer holiday, but until then I am sure there is one event I am hoping to attend, I'll tell you more about as soon as I know details.

Earth's hidden Wonders

ada2 

It's finished!! Finally this semester's project is concluded and I have a full week all to myself! I was so exhausted after too many wasted nights (I got to see the sunrise several times though, which was nice) and well, I know I should've worked sooner but the satisfaction is even greater when you see the fruit of your work after long struggles. 
The theme was the five elements of the Chinese Zodiac, you know, Metal, Wood, Water, Earth and Fire. We had to research the structures these elements create in nature, which are so many and so beautiful and choose one. I chose Earth and my attention turned not to the surface of it, but beneath it. I was thinking about minerals and crystals. I was inspired by onyx stones, malachites and especially agates. I wanted to recreate their amazing structures but at the same time I didn't want the same perfect result they present, so I "loosen up" the connections so to say, to create a dynamic movement on the surface. And as I mentioned before..I used color, naturally. I am quite pleased with the result.
 Looking forward in hearing your thoughts!

No way to cool down..

flfl1 

 My energy level is waaaaayyy down today, I am so tired, I need to sleep more but not yet.. I still need to finish some work. Plus, the heat is exhausting me, my body feels like melting at this point. 
 The evening before yesterday happened the worst thing: my laptop charger died and so did all of my power outlets in my room, but they were the least of my concern. I was panicking, being a total drama queen at 2 A.M., thinking that all my projects are in my laptop and therefor I will fail all of my exams. I decided at some point to think about it the next morning and luckily the problem got solved in an hour thanks to a friend of mine. I was surprised honestly. 
Then I just thought about it and realized hoooow addicted we are to our computers, everything we do, we do on them (well... not everything, we can't cook or sleep, just to name a few) and it's just awful.
 Now, I have to study, and guess what?  most of my courses are on my laptop! 
Hopefully no other harm will happen to it.

Hot hot hot!

999 3 

 Today I saw the sunrise (work kept me up all night) and I was struck by the fresh air and the birds which sang so beautifully in silence. It was a perfect moment, so different from noon, where you couldn't breathe but dust and heat, your skin was burning, and one could feel so dizzy from this annoying sun, you just can't rejoice at all. This is something that usually happens to me during Summer (I even hate laying in the sun to get a tan, I much prefer my white skin). When I am forced to go out during the daytime I am the most unpleasant person ever, take me out in the evenings and you will be charmed for eternity, haha. 
Well, at least I can wear pretty tops and beautiful sandals this season. Always look on the bright side, yes?
