Everlasting love for velvet, vintage and bygone times

Anyone who knows me, should be aware of my constant attraction to aristocracy, vintage accessories and clothing, old houses and...velvet. Put together all of them and I am complete! 

Whenever I see a 100 year old historical mansion, I immediately feel this urge to explore it inside and out, then I start to imagine what kind of people lived there and all the stories and memories it upholds. I feel a sudden melancholy that is not even mine and I can't explain why, but I love it. 

Whenever I am in such a house, I feel like I never want to leave, so capturing bits and pieces of it in pictures is the best I can do to keep the feeling alive and share it with you as well.

It feels this place deserves a proper attire, so I thought a silk velvet top which happens to be off the shoulder will make me feel a bit like a Victorian noble woman. Pair that with a cameo choker and vintage golden earrings and my look is fulfilled.

I wanted to snap more pictures of this house, but I wasn't exactly allowed to do that, plus there were other customers, but I hope you can get an idea of how classy it feels.

By the way, the place is called Amadeus Mozart Caffe for those who are interested. They serve the most delicious cakes and coffee in town!

From the series of broken hearts

 

 Saturday was a day filled with sweets, both in taste and in eyesight. I knew there was a vintage fair going on downtown of Cluj so we went there to catch a glimpse. That glimpse turned into a broken heart because I saw so many amazing pieces but I was simply broke and couldn't take anything home with me.. Photos bellow will explain my grief. After my little moment of depression diminished, we took these photos in the park and then we went at Cafe Mozart, a little piece of Heaven I have been before, I wanted to taste more of their delicious cakes and amazing coffees. And the atmosphere inside is so cozy, everything there is so beautifully decorated, even the girls have old Viennese uniforms.. so sweet. After this I felt a little better and we walked some more, enjoying the city like a couple of old folks. 

 I'm having a blast!

 

One of their cakes with mascarpone cream and oranges and below a coffee with walnut ice cream, cinnamon, nutmeg and whipped cream.

And this is the main reason I was so depressed, just look at this amazing unique skirt filled with sequins.

I stared at it over and over again, thinking how amazingly resembles a stained glass work of art. 

 I swore to myself that if I can't find it again, I will make myself something like this even if it will take

me a whole year (I am just that crazy about it)

And how lovely is this blazer? 

I'm hoping your weekend was sunnier than mine..
