Places to see: Corvin Castle

corvin castle9 

 I was so excited for this one day trip, because I wanted to visit the Corvin Castle from Hunedoara, Romania, for a veeery long time, but since I don't own a car, getting there can be a bit difficult, the city appears to be quite secluded.
 If you follow me since the beginning of times, you know that I am fan of everything that is aristocratic, castles, old mansions and such. See here my article featuring Peles Castle from Sinaia if you want to convince yourself.

 After 3 hours, we finally arrived in town andguess what? It started raining! Surprisingly, that didn't let me down, by the time we finished visiting the interior, the rain stopped, but on the bright side, we entered the castle for free! A family walked towards us and they probably saw my excitement while shooting some photos outside and gave us an invitation that granted us free access, which was very nice of them! 
So while I was taking dreamy princess-like photos around there, trying to find spots less crowded by tourists, my dress was filled with mud because of the rain, of course, and I had sand in my shoes just like in true medieval times, right? 
Even so, I was happy I got to visit the castle, it's quite lovely but not very opulent, of course, there is no such thing during Medieval times, everything was much more austere, if you ever have a chance to visit Romania, be sure to check out this place, it's filled with history.

Princess for a day

bfg

I received this dress from Dressestylist while I was in Bucharest and I couldn't wait to try it on! 
When they contacted me regarding a collaboration, I browsed their site and somehow I was put in a great difficulty having to choose one dress out of hundreds and hundreds! They specialize in special ocassions dresses, and they have EVERYTHING for EVERYONE'S taste! 
 About this dress.. I've never had such a princess-like dress, you know.. with the puffy volume and the classical shape of the '50s fashion, so let's just say that I wanted to fulfill a long time wish. Naturally, I chose a dark green color because it is one of my favorite colors but it wasn't easy I must say! There are so many options you can choose from! 
Now I wanted to have a castle behind me, to create a beautiful story and beautiful photos, but the time wasn't on my side (days are too short and cold!) so this background will do for now. There is always a next time. And next time it will be much more interesting.. bfg6 bfg2 bfg5 bfg4 bfg7 bfg3

Happy shopping!
