The cardigan dress

cardigan dress4


Can you believe it it's already June? That means half of 2016 is already gone and Summer is here! Minus the occasional rains, but you know how it is.
It's time to plan vacations, time to wear light clothes and take out those sandals you bought in mid March (like I did) and indulge in at least three ice creams per day!
I was excited to take out these sandals from Zara, but let's get this straight: they are incredibly beautiful and of course, that comes with a price: the level of comfort wearing them goes down to almost zero. I knew that before buying them, but I didn't care. Beautiful things can be painful.

To the cardigan, I took it thinking I can wear it for what it is: a cardigan. But I realized that it can also be turned into a casual Summer dress and don't worry, those are not my underwear, it's a pair of lace shorts - rest assured, I am not that bold  careless.

What do you think about this type of cardigan?

Floral cardigan

Goodness, the weather was so cold this weekend! Don't mind the Sun, he was there as a decor object, but the temperatures were ridiculously low.
Since my coats are cuddled back in my closet, I take out my warmest cardigans, this one from Sheinside is one of them. I wore it last year like crazy and I can't get enough of it, one of those clothing items you never get bored of, you know?
Also, perhaps you noticed that my hair is longer, that is all thanks to the Irresistible Me hair extensions I received about a year ago. I haven't worn them much mainly because my hair color changed from that bright red in time, and also because my hair is pretty thick as it is and well, we all know that hair extensions work best for thinner hair, however, if I curl them, they are just perfect. Or if I wear them in braids or ponytails. I wanted to play a little for once and I really did feel pretty and different that day in a small, subtle way!

Alright, let's get through this Monday with a positive mood.
Have a great start of the week guys!

A western-grunge mix

a western grunge mix 

 I realize this is quite a different outfit from the last one I posted, but what can I say? I love styling and I love variations. Although vintage outfits and jewelry will always remain close to my heart and I don't think I will ever get bored of, it's fun to play around from time to time.
 I saw this checkered vest on New Chic and what intrigued me was the length, I have this new obsession with long coats/cardigans/shirts, whatever, so I needed to give this one a try. It's fun because it almost looks like a dress and I really love the fabric, it's a dense cotton, something I didn't expect really.
I created this part grunge, part country/western outfit, a mixture of both, because here I have the checkered print item which is common for both grunge and country fashion and yet I have the cowboy ankle boots and a suede skirt, but I lack the rock, dark vibe - if we turn back time and see how I used to dress in highschool, I would've styled this vest totally different!
What do you think?

They say it's the end of Winter

28 7 

 Today I am gloomy, just like the weather outside. Just when I thought sunny and warm days will be ahead some rain and clouds decided to show up and put my Spring wishes on hold. Tomorrow we should celebrate the first day of Spring - in theory at least - so, if the cold continues to persist, I think I'm going to buy myself hyacinths and tulips and have my own little Spring in my house!
 In the meantime, I will stick to cardigans, scarves and all types of layers for this weird transition season which I am getting sick of. Who's with me?

Off the shoulder sweater

004 7 

 I don't know about you, but I love it when I see any piece of clothing that shows off the shoulders, no matter if it's a dress, a top or a sweater. So imagine my joy when I found this sweater at a ridiculous price of $5 in an outlet shop back in January! 
No, the weather was not all that warm, but I couldn't wait any longer to take some photos with it. It feels so warm and looks so feminine, you can wear it like I do, or with the collar on the side or even to the back, showing off some skin, it's so versatile. 
I just love a design that can be worn in many different ways and when it matches so many other items in different styles, don't you?

 Have a warm Sunday guys!

In Mid Winter

15 1 4

Back when Winter was still on and snow was everywhere, I went ahead and fooled around, so that is also when I pretty much caught a cold and now I sound like Don Corleone.
At least I have some pretty memories. And a new dress, found the last one in Zara, it was clearly waiting for me - gotta love sales!

Dots and stripes

zt5 3 

 I'm back after a tiring weekend in Bucharest! 
The wedding I attended was beautiful and a success, people had loads of fun, I was dead tired halfway through the night as I was running around after the bride since 12 AM that day. But it was a fun day, can't wait to see the final photos!
 These photos were taken the day after, a simple but girlie casual outfit, wearing the most comfortable shoes ever, because after walking and dancing all day in heels, you kinda need a break. That evening the weather changed abruptly and started ro rain like crazy that lasted for two days. I arrived in Cluj in a full Autumn weather, and even though it's sunny now, the air is cold and nostalgic, just the way I love it. Give me a glass of red wine and a mountain view and I am the happiest person alive!
 I wish I could've stayed longer in Bucharest and meet as many people as possible, but the time was not on my side and we all have jobs to go to, so that's an obstacle too. But there is always a next time!

 Right now I am getting ready to see "The Martian" - anyone else excited about this film? I heard it's gonna be awesome!
