Two outfits, one brand! Styling with C&A

For those of you who live in Europe, I am pretty sure you are familiar with the C&A brand, although I hear it's getting quite popular in Asia and South America too!

For any of you who don't know, the brand was born in Netherlands, currently reigning over Central Europe and its targeted customer is mainly the casual-chic woman, but it also presents menswear, kidswear, XL collections and a whole lot of accessories for any age. The prices are affordable for any budget which makes the brand quite a competitor for H&M - at least that is my opinion!

I had the chance to create two outfits, one more casual, which encloses a very fluffy and comfortable sweater and of course, my favorite trend at the moment: embroidered jeans! 

Cred ca cititoarele din Romania au auzit de brandul C&A de o vreme si probabil au si cumparat din magazinele lor mai mult decat o data, pentru ca preturile lor sunt chiar prietenoase iar gama lor de haine cuprinde o varietate de varste, de la nou nascuti pana la cei 80 ani ai bunicii mai mult sau mai putin moderne! Si cred eu ca brandul este un competitor serios pentru H&M -just sayin'!

Am avut ocazia recent sa creez doua tinute pentru ei,  dupa propriul meu gust, aici de fata avem o tinuta casual-chic, am ales un pulover pufos si super comfortabil si o pereche de jeans cu broderie care reprezinta, bineinteles unul din trendurile mele preferate!

As for my second outfit, I chose something a bit more glamorous, a sleek velvet skirt and a loose sweater with silvery thread and of course, sparkly jewelry, all from C&A.

How about this look for a date night? Let me know your thoughts!

Cat despre a doua tinuta, am optat pentru ceva mai elegant, ceva...potrivit pentru o cina in oras, iar pentru mine, avand in vedere ca este totusi sezonul rece, o fusta de catifea si un pulover cu fir stralucitor alcatuiesc tinuta ideala! Plus accesorii cat mai sparkly si gata!

...Ca o nota de incheiere, va anunt ca sambata, 11 noiembrie, la C&A puteti beneficia de 25% reducere din pretul afisat, la toate articolele! Promotia dureaza doar o zi, in toate magazinele C&A din Romania! Nu-i asa ca suna apetisant? 

Haideti la shopping!

P.S. Toate accesoriile (cu exceptia pantofilor si a gentii albe) sunt de la C&A ;)

Denim skirts and lace tops - the new classic

 

 Can you believe it's already June? I sure can't! Summer is here and I am dreaming of a looong vacation, countless ice creams and cocktails in the evenings. Until then, a relaxing walk here and there and some photos in the middle, all squeezed in between two jobs - got to pay for that vacation somehow right? 

 I hope you are all doing well and I wish you a great week guys! Wearing: Zara top, thrifted skirt, New Yorker bag and sunglasses, vintage earrings, no name sandals

Embroidery all the way

 

 I don't know about you, but I get excited like on Christmas morning whenever I see embroidery, therefor, I am so thrilled to see it on pretty much everything, from shoes to shirts and jackets! I have such a huge respect for this craft, I know it's so difficult to make and it looks soooo precious and special.

That is why I couldn't resist not taking this bag home with me, nor those Zara jeans. I usually never pay more than $15 on jeans, because they don't feel that special to me, but this pair though... They stuck in my brain ever since I saw them on the website. Then I took a glance at them in the store and went away, trying to convince myself they are not that pretty (who was I kidding?)  A few days past and they were still inside my mind (my philosophy is simple: if a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes makes you think about it more than two days later, then go get it!) So, one day, I tried them on and that was that. I went one step closer to purchasing them and I don't regret it! 

It's wonderful how some details can make a piece of simple clothing appear much more interesting and more appealing! 

 What do you feel about this embroidery trend? I for one have some other stuff on my list, but let's wait for the next paycheck!
