Samsara

 

Saṃsāra meaning "wandering" with the connotation of cyclic, circuitous change. It also refers to the theory of rebirth and "cyclicality of all life, matter, existence", a fundamental assumption of all Indian religions. 

 In other words: reincarnation. I am not going to talk about that today, the concept is beyond my understanding, although it does sounds appealing. So is this lovely place which is actually called Samsara , a oriental inspired place that serves dozens types of tea, hookas and cool biscuits. There are three uniquely designed salons, so interesting and sooo cozy (you have to take your shoes off before you enter!) But the garden in the back is so quiet and chilled, it feels like you are escaping the noisy hot city and enter in a new world, so the name is justified.

The place charms me every time I go back there, it's gorgeous to visit, especially in the Summer.

And you can't resist the temptation of taking photos there!

Happy weekend guys!

Two small treasures: a skirt and a vintage bracelet

I'm such a romantic, aren't I? I couldn't help but to embrace my feminine style and create another classic/chic/romantic outfit. 

This silky maxi skirt is one of my favorite items I own and how else could I pair it than with a off the shoulder blouse and golden jewelry! I scored this gorgeous colorful vintage bracelet from a vintage fair back in Bucharest, I fell in love with it at first sight, and even though spent a small fortune on it, I don't regret it, it is definitely an item to treasure!

What do you think of this look?

 For the past few days I've been on a short vacation in Bucharest, visiting old friends and favorite places - some of you know thatI used to live there some time ago - I love going there during the Spring because it's the blooming season and the Japanese Garden is in full beauty right now and of course, I couldn't miss the oportunity to take some dreamy photos there.

 I wore this gorgeous dress I got last year (I honestly don't remember from where) that I didn't got a chance to wear until now, I thought this garden was perfect for it! Gosh, I am so excited seeing these photos, that place is so beautiful and serene, you wish you could stay there all day and gaze at the trees. I also wish they could stay in bloom all the time.

 I hope you like the photos! Let me know your thoughts.

 

Green leaf

 

 Today I'm not wearing a maxi dress, but a maxi skirt, haha, not much has changed there.

 I loved the texture and the color of this skirt the moment I saw it in my friend's wardrobe and thanks to her, I took it out for a stroll and had the change to play around with it for a while. I only wish it could be mine, but I didn't had that luck (she found it in an outlet shop as I remember, grrr) 

A simple feminine look, created from a flowy top with a gorgeous print, this lovely maxi skirt and some very high heeled sandals, basic ones, not too sophisticated and there is my Summer casual Sunday look. 

 Have a great week guys!

 

In the last light

 

 As much as I hate Summer days, that's how much I LOVE Summer evenings. The contrast is dramatic and I am constantly in a love-hate relationship with this season. I was never one to stay all day on the beach burning my skin and I avoid as much as possible going out during the daytime, from 11 AM to 7 PM. But what I do love is the Summer storms, the delicious icecream savoured outdoors, the cold cocktails sipped on terraces, the late evening walks, the quiet sunsets and some outdoors activities. Also, sandals, flare pants and maxi dresses. Which gets to my point. 

We went out AFTER 7 PM, the way I like it, we caught the last light of the day and we shot these photos in my favorite super long maxi dress that I stepped on continously- no heels attached. The result is just the way I like it - my feminine side in a lovely scenery around me in a dim romantic light. What do you say?

 

 Have a great start of the week!

Is it Summer already?

I can't believe the weather outside! It's gorgeous, hot, perfect to wear maxi dresses, sandals, wedges, easy-breezy tops, you name it! I wish I could get out of town somewhere to the seaside and enjoy a good swim within the waves ( sometimes the swimming pool is just not enough). I couldn't wait to wear this dress I bought recently from an outlet shop (gotta love those); I don't know what I love most, the print, the cut on the back or the fact that it's suuuuper long even with heels! As a tall person, it's usually hard for me to find long dresses, the hemline usually reaches just above the ankle (while wearing flat shoes) and it just looks ridiculous in my opinion. Enjoy the Summer preview guys, it feels great!

Maxi love

 

 I don't know what I love most: maxi skirts or maxi dresses.

 The fact is that a dress is easier to wear since you don't have to consider what to wear on the upper part of your body, sometimes that can be a hassle, sometimes it can be fun to mix and match. Another fact is that I have about..two maxi skirts and I feel the need to add more to my wardrobe, because...why not? This one - which was actually a dress but I cut it and another one I made myself long a go. 

I never seemed to find a proper one, because: 

 1. They are either too short and look ridiculous. 

2. They are too transparent and of poor quality. 

 Can't have them all in this fast-fashion industry, right? 

 And it seems that lately I have a thing for pink, which is weird..

 Have a wonderful weekends, lovelies!
