Off the shoulder tops - a Summer must have!

 

 I wish I could wear this style of tops and dresses all year long, they are so flattering and I feel it can turn your look into a sexy one - the subtle, feminine kind. 

I also wish I could have more time to get back into my usual blogging schedule, but it's not that simple. I also wish I could travel more and experience exciting things. And I wish the heat could cool down a bit, it's exhausting me.

 This post is filled with wishes it seems, I guess we all revise our wishlist every now and then, don't we? 

 In the meantime, my attention is focused on Game of thrones and Broadchurch, who else is hyped about these series? I know they have different themes, but hey are both equally captivating, too bad they are so short though!

 

Wearing: thrifted shorts, Bershka top, Stradivarius sandals and necklaces, vintage earrings.

Summer layers

 

Already half of Summer has gone by and I am still looking forward to my vacation (soon, very soon!) and I don't know about you, but I feel that apart from eating ice cream and cursing the heat, I haven't done much this Summer. I didn't even get a change to swim or buy a new maxi dress!

 Oh well, there is still time I guess; struggling between two jobs with a sick cat does not give me much time for anything lately, one of the reasons of my MIA, actually.

  I hope you are spending this season far more better than I am!

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

Bohemian weekend

 

Currently I am sitting in a Starbucks, sipping on a Guatemala-Something Cappuccino and taking advantage of their free WiFi in order for me to post this article and say my "Hellos" on social media. 

Moving your home is hard business, so until Monday or Tuesday, I am out of Internet connection; hopefully this will be resolved soon; traveling around from one coffee shop to another with a heavy laptop is not an easy task.

 Anyway, onto the outfit - while we are still enjoying a very prolonged Summer here in Romania, I took advantage of one of the remaining sales that was still on-going (Hello 70% OFF!) and took this wonderful hippie, boho-chic, whatever you want to call it, cardigan and I am so glad I managed to create this look before the cold temperatures start to kick in. 

By all means, this style is nothing new, but this is not exactly my day to day style, so playing around with new styles, whenever I get the chance is very new to me. And it feels fun! 

 Happy weekend guys!

Casual ethnic look

 

Looking at these photos you might think that I'm in a savanna, but the truth is that it hasn't rained in my hometown for about a month, hence pretty much all the fields are dry and turning yellow. I don't know exactly why I wanted to take these photos at edge of the town, it's not exactly a fabulous poppy field, but I guess I wanted a change of scenery and somehow that straw Summer hat fits perfectly in this arid landscape. 

This traditional blouse also inspired me to choose a place less urban, even though you see this type of blouses pretty much everywhere right now and styled in so many different ways, from leather skirts, to denim shorts. What do you think about this style of blouses?

On hot Summer days

 

 Seems like the heat is back to torture my level of comfort and my skin, but no matter, I have this baggy old dress that is so loose and so comfortable, it makes me feel like I'm wearing a plain sheet of chiffon and nothing else. 

Very easy to move around as well, so I highly recommend getting this type of dresses during hot Summer days, they are a life saver!

 Seems all I have been wearing lately are dresses, but that's not really the case, although I do prefer them over shorts or mini skirts. At least until October. I hope Summer will last until then.

 Have a relaxing weekend guys!

 

Uncommon Goods

Have you ever heard of Uncommon Goods Jewelry? If not, let me tell you a little bit about it. A site based in USA that offers hand made jewelry made by various artisans and designers each with a unique style that you really can't find elsewhere.

They don't only sell jewelry, but all sorts of decorative products, like personalized gifts, and we all know, we love to have stuff that are in accord with our personality and lifestyle.

So, if you are one looking for awesome products to offer as gifts to your close ones, this is the place to search: wedding gifts, presents for moms or kids, you can find jewelry, cups, robes, books or toys, you name it!

My choice was this gorgeous hand made necklace made by Emilie Shapiro who loves to create bold and beautiful jewelry by placing gems in wax castings, then melding brass around it for a uniquely organic design.

Also, these gorgeous golden bracelets made by  Tulianna and Alejandra Garces. Beautifully crafted by Colombian artisans, these bracelets are made from antique lace dipped in lustrous 24k gold. The process is entirely done by hand: pieces of lace are cut and sewn, dipped in wax to seal and reinforce them, then in a layer of copper, and finally in 24k gold. 

How amazing is that? To take a delicate textile fabric and dip it into gold to create jewelry. I never heard of something as creative as this before, I loved the idea!

I really hope you liked this post and these gorgeous designs. Go check out their website for more products and more info, i am sure you'll love it!
