Black, white and gold

 

 It's Sunday and I am so glad that we are having such a lovely weather here in Cluj, while elsewhere in the country people are freezing under the snow. Living in a region guarded by the mountains has its benefits. Even so, we are not ready to give up our coats and boots but at least we have sunny warmer afternoons and golden sunsets; which is the perfect recipe for a satisfying photoshoot. 

After a few days in a very windy Bucharest, followed by a snow storm (which of course caught me unprepared, my feet were frozen and I had four layers of clothing on me) I returned home with a smile on my face, happy that I got to see a few of my friends there, eat wonderful desserts at my favorite pastry shops and walked around the same streets I walked three years ago while I was a student there. It felt a bit melancholic, but good. 

That is mainly the reason for my disappearance, but I only managed to leave the house yesterday while it was still sunny (it sounds like I am a rat that hates daylight, but I actually had to do a lot of errands and work). We took these photos before our dinner and a disastrous dessert - a Millefeuille is not made out of an ordinary whipped cream and a cheap chocolate sauce , that's all I'm sayin'!

There is nothing more that I hate than to spend money on a food or sweet that has no taste, but oh well, that is how you learn.

 I hope you had a relaxed weekend guys! Let's hope for a relaxed week as well.

Layers of knits

 

 One day is snowing, another day it feels like an early Spring, the weather seems confused and so do we. This past weekend we experienced a very warm and nice time, so there was no need for a heavy coat, bur rather a cozy cardigan over a light jumper and it felt very comfortable and just right, even during the evening when it got a bit more colder.

 Knits are the best thing you can wear during a transitional season, they really keep you warmer than 5 layers of cotton sweatshirts, there is something about natural wool that preserves the body temperature, don't you think so?

 This was my outfit for the weekend, I chose to wear some of my favorite knitwear in contrasting colors, just what I needed for a colorful relaxed Sunday afternoon.

 Happy Monday!

The perfect little Summer dress

 

 I hope you had a great weekend guys! Mine was quite full, a friend of mine came to visit for a few days and I got to pay the tourist this past weekend, so we walked around pretty much all day, showing her all the main attractions and the coolest bistros the city has to offer, so it was both relaxing and tiring at the same time, but nonetheless, fun!

 For this, I got a chance to wear this easy breezy dress I bought not long ago, especially for the hot Summer days we are dealing with right now. I was attracted by the very light fabric and the fact that it can be worn off the shoulders, of course! I convinced myself that I need this dress in my life and I wasn't wrong! It's so practical and yet, very romantic, perfect for my style.

Romantic mood

It appears the castle I visited last week left me in a romantic mood still, not that I complain, Romanticism is in my style, especially when it comes to photography. I feel this dress is appropriate for both casual day wear and also for a lovely date, just add some heels and some sparkly jewelry and you're good. I couldn't miss the sunset and it's golden light, it's just the perfect time to take photos, no matter the season. 

It could have been perfect if it wasn't for the screaming kids around and loads of people walking around, but since we live in a big city, finding a secluded place is difficult, so this will do. 

However, I hope you love the pictures and let's start the new week with fresh forces!

Chasing sunsets

 

 I couldn't think of a better title to this post, because it's not really about clothes as much as it is about the scenery and the light. I am so crazy to catch the perfect light during a sunset, so we were lucky enough we had a lovely day and our timing was just perfect! The sun disappeared as soon as we finished with these photos and I am glad I was satisfied with the results! Otherwise it would've been a total waste of time - that happened before, I am pretentious, what can I say! 

 I hope you like the images (and the outfit for that matter) and I wish you a lovely weekend guys!

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!

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!
