Pink Flamingos – Part II

May 1, 2018

It is possible to own a pair of jeans and never let them go until you see a hole in them, and they begin to disintegrate the more you wear them, begin to get that “wear and tear” kind of quality that you begin to love. If you’ve been following me since the beginning, you’ve noticed I have many pieces in my wardrobe that I repeat in my outfits, my only addiction are tops – the more the better.

I like to preach consumerism and every blogger does that, but not if it’s becoming a drag, not if you cannot enjoy your clothes anymore, cannot find what to wear every morning, because you have so many. Psychological, if one is given too many choices, one becomes to feel underwhelmed and it’s not fun anymore. I don’t own a gazillion pair of shoes and jeans. I don’t have a huge room full of clothes, although now I can fill a small room. Do whatever makes you happy, but remember, any piece of garment that you throw out is polluting our world. I donate mine and have since I was in high-school. I keep those special ones that, even though I don’t wear them anymore, are linked to a fond memory. Continue Reading…

The Power Blazer

April 16, 2018

That perfect, power blazer. That’s what I thought when I saw it in a thrift shop, right around our street corner. Perfect condition and a Ralph Lauren. It’s beautiful manly cut and beautiful crest buttons, classic pattern and a patch of velvet on the back collar. So today I’m bringing another office look: if you need inspiration for that power meeting you may be too afraid to over-dress or lack the effort to impress.

Spring Has Sprung

April 12, 2018

After a snow filled March, Spring has really sprung and already we have trees and flowers in full bloom. #orthodoxeaster was just last weekend and we had a few days off. We had friends over a barbecue party among other fun activities. One day was spent outside the city, up in hill terrain. Up there is where we shot these photos and I wore vintage and thrift from head to toe, except my sneakers. Continue Reading…

Get The London Look

March 28, 2018

In 2010 I found myself in London working for a month. Came back after 5 more times until November 2011 and returned in 2016. I was in the biggest open plane office on the 12th floor, right next to Paddington station, I had new people around me, from all over the world and I was scared. I was sent alone, I knew nobody there and I always dreamed, since 6th grade, to live in London. Not just visit, live there. I was dropped by the Green Line bus and met by two of my Romanian colleagues at Marble Arch station, right in front of Primark. As I entered the offices a future colleague greeted and asked: “Are you from the BBC?“. I had my luggage with me and seemed official, I guess. “No, I’m not“, I answered.

Hey Mickey You’re So Fine You Blow My Mind, Hey Mickey!

March 21, 2018

Office looks. Most requested looks from all fashion bloggers. That means looking sharp and classy is quite a challenge for some. This is why some look for constant inspiration, even if the real life Zara windows in your town offer the same. You want to be comfortable, yet still look shabby and posh. For many (I’m speaking of men and women) having to sit in a suit for 8-9 hours a day can be quite a challenge. Many consider power suits to be extremely uncomfortable. This is why today I’m showing you how to dress posh for office, bring a little fun and elevate that 9 to 5 look into a modern yet classic and with a twist look. Continue Reading…

Black & White Stripes – Lounging At Home

March 18, 2018

Last night (a Saturday night) we fell asleep at 10 pm. I had my wi-fi open on my phone. It’s this awful weather, constant Winter and constant cold, rain and drizzle. It’s almost April and Spring has yet to show it’s face. I can’t remember a year that had Spring wait so long. This is why the days with good light are scarce and few. This is why in this post we had to shoot inside, with studio lights. Better, because today I’m getting comfortable at home. Continue Reading…
