Denim Glamour

 

When did it became Fall I wonder? After my short holiday to Rome, which seems like ages ago, I got so caught up with the reality of the world that I forgot how fast time passes by and here we are, at the end of September and me, still longing for beach days and cold lemonades. I still got the Summertime sadness it seems.. 

These photos were taken right after a huge storm passed by, luckily, I took shelter in a cafe and no harm was done (to me at least). The light was so dim and I thought we would never manage to get a satisfying result, so it took me a week or so to decide to publish these images. The weather has been horrid since and I think it might've been the last time those white shoes saw the light this year! 

How about these "mom jeans" ? - yet I bought another pair! The fit of these jeans really struck me and what better way to add some glamour to them than pearls? I thought it was such a nice touch, I couldn't resist them! 

How do you feel about this denim trend?

Almost all-white

 I am baaack after a unjustified absence, let's just say that life got in the way of my own blogging world, but I'll try to get back on track because I really do miss working on this blog, especially creating beautiful photos and even the whole editing process, which sometimes can take longer than I'd like. Seriously though, I love creating content here and see what you all have been up to as well.

 For this outfit, I left my romantic self aside and I turned to a more modern look, featuring this lovely peplum top that is so adorable in my opinion, and this ah-mazing pair of floral print culottes I found in H&M on sale! And guess what? It was the last pair and in my size - I mean, how could anyone resist that? It's like meant to be.
In a few days I'll be leaving for Bucharest for a short vacation, so hopefully I won't be absent for too long from my blog, but you can always find me on Instagram to see what I am up to!

Sunny Monday

 

 I do hope you are having a better day than I do, because for me, it's one of those hateful Mondays that make me feel like setting something up on fire and continously trying to cheer myself up with positive thoughts. 

I bet you all had this moment, after a very good and relaxing week-end, when you simply don't want to go to your job and just spend a century in your bed. 

 I dug up these photos that somehow were forgotten in my folders, they were taking a while back, while the weather was still warm and lovely (I still want to wear heels and not boots!) So now, even though it's still sunny outside, it's quite cold and yet pleasant, and I hope I can still be able to enjoy this day before the sun sets. 

I wish you all, at least, a great start of the week!

Those fabulous giant dots

 

 I'm so excited to show you this gorgeous skirt that I recently added in my wardrobe! 

It was custom made at a tailor, because, even though I made some other skirts and tops myself in the past, I wasn't confident enough this time, since that fabric is so precious and very easy to destroy if you don't have the necessary skills. I found it in my closet while cleaning and I thought it was such a shame not to make something out of it this season. I found a great tailor and I let the precious fabric in his hands. I wanted a big circle skirt, with a retro vibe (of course) and I was so happy with the result, I felt like dancing in that skirt all day.

 When I first saw this fabric, it was a while ago, back in the day when I was obsessed with polka dots. But not any dots, those fabulous giant dots that I wasn't able to find anywhere, only tiny, dwarf-size dots that I was completely bored of. I took the last batch of that fabric and it remained in my closet until this day. 

I still have so many pieces of fabrics that I really need to start turning them into clothes, and the fun fact about custom-made items is that you can be sure that no one else has the same piece of clothing as you do!

Vintage Saturdays

 

 While everybody around me on the streets was wearing jeans, light boots, grey/black/brown jackets and scarves in the same colors, I was like a snowdrop flower emerged from a long boring and hard winter. To me, it was a great weather to still wear dress shoes and colorful skirts even though a cold wind was blowing here and there, but one could feel the warm sun and the fresh air of Fall. 

 I tend to enjoy this season as much as I can, by even wearing pretty clothes and drinking hot delicious coffees in elegant interiors. That's how my Saturday was like.

 Don't deny the fact that every woman desires to feel like an aristocrat and you can make time to feel like a noble lady if you find the right places. I guess I was influenced by Kate Morton's "The house at Riverton" and wanted to recreate the book's mood a bit. 

Have you read it?

Purple and blue for October

 

 It's been raining here for almost two days straight. Just when I decided to curl my hair and be all lady like. I am surprised it worked (not much for the curls though) as I usually am quite "meh" when it comes to dressing up in rainy weather. I always feel like wearing jeans and some sneakers not to ruin my fancy shoes - but sometimes exceptions can be made and luckily these white shoes ere not ruined. 

What can I say, Autumn came and it is staying. So is my melancholy and my "not-in-the-mood-to-do-anything" state. At least I can drink tons of tea and read books while gazing the rain outside from time to time - that is a lovely Autumn scenario for me.

 It's Friday (already!) Got any plans for the weekend?

Classy grunge

 

 Now this is an interesting turn: from floral prints to grunge patterns. 

Truth is I've always had a fancy for chequered prints but always hesitated when I was shopping. However, I decided to give in and since I saw this particular shirt in an outlet shop, I thought "what the heck" and went for it. I loved the soft cotton fabric, the simple design (sometimes I found shirts with huge ugly pockets or studs randomly placed on them - what?!) and the combination of colors is really to my taste. I suppose my mother would say that I am wearing a table cloth and to be honest that is my first impression when I see this pattern too; but sometimes table cloths can be really cool and fashionable.

 Have e lovely weekend guys!
