Going back in time to the '90s!

High waist pants, cropped top and denim jacket - I feel like mom in the '90s. 
Those pants did belong to her until that print struck my fancy and decided she would not miss wearing them, so it was safe to say that it was my turn to do that!
 They are funny and also fun to wear, for any casual relaxing day, wouldn't you agree? 

 So, all you millennials out there, if you ever fancy creating an outfit from mid '90s, go raid your mother's closet, it's the most convenient (and free) option! 

 How do you feel about fashion in the '90s ?

Winter games

10 1

This is not my typical kind of post, but since I really enjoy taking these photos, I thought: "why not share them here as well?" I like skating, in fact, it's the only sport I am fond of, because it's artistic - go figures. Not that I am an expert or anything, but I do enjoy watching all Grand Prix skating finals, World championships, so whenever there's a competition, I am there, stuck in front of the TV and cheering for my favorite skaters; I would really love to see a competition live, I think the vibe it's totally different. 
So yes, this is the only sporty activity I enjoy, next to swimming, too bad it can only be done in Winter time. 
We are here on the Central park's frozen lake, the ice was really thick so you could skate all you want and the best part is that it is free! It's totally safe when it's really cold of course, I hope it will last longer so I can enjoy this a little more.

Stay warm!

The comeback and some general thoughts

lis2 5 

 Well, hello again for those who missed me! I may have to start explaining why I went MIA for about a month and a half, but I really don't have a serious reason. And don't start to think that I was lazy taking pictures, because that is not the case.
 There were various reasons why I took this long hiatus, which never happened before in 4 years of blogging, most of them are related to the fact that I somehow got lost in my daily routine, with my job and all and I didn't have time to think about what I should post about next, I had no inspiration, I had no time or need to buy new clothes and feel happy about it - seriously, I spent most of my days in the same boring jeans and various sweaters or shirts and that was about it. Whenever I had free time, I wanted to walk, read, relax my brain and watch Game of Thrones.
Then there was this issue of not having a dedicated photographer 24/7 when I needed him. And this is quite frustrating. Another reason was the weird weather. Whenever I had time and mood for photos, it was pouring rain or snowing - yea..imagine that. Then I had some problems with my PC. 

So, pilling all of that together, got me in a very annoyed state where I just felt that my passion for blogging was somehow hazed by this struggle of finding a solution for all of it, to make it work better. I still didn't find it. I don't know if I will. I would love to come up with a new concept, a new design, new places to shoot photos, but I am limited, so don't expect to get new content here, because I am the same old me, but with a few new clothes now. 

 During this time, I started to listen to a lot of jazz and blues which I love, I started once again to make a new "want-to-read" book list, I bought flowers and enjoyed them, I started cooking fancy meals and made more delicious cakes. I made a short visit to Bucharest, revisited old but familiar places and got filled with nostalgic memories, I saw my friends, my blogger friends and it was just great to change the scenery a bit. I tried finding new hobbies, but I haven't found one that enhances me as much as creating outfits and taking photos for the blog does, so I decided to continue it and mostly because certain people missed my virtual presence.

Currently I am in my hometown for the Easter holidays and I am finally enjoying the warm weather (until recently I was still wearing ankle boots). Today I choose a sporty-spice look, so different from all the floral patterns I am used to for Spring. The outfit was pretty much revolved around those cute new shoes I bought that I really needed this season - and they are so comfy!
 I looked like I was going to a tennis match and it felt great to feel a bit different.
 Anyways, I can't wait for Summer, to wear espadriles, platform sandals, chiffon cardigans and flare pants!

 I hope you are having a Happy Easter guys! I will definitely see you soon.
