Bubble Gum 🍬

 Well, what can I say?! It's Zara everything! 🙄

Happy Monday everyone!

I was thinking what to write about today and somehow I remembered that when I was in school I used to have a Word file where I was writing all my favourite quotes which I could find online. Yep, I used to keep them all in one place because I was afraid I won't find them ever again. Silly me, haha.

But anyway, since I like mixing things a little bit and making a change from time to time is always a good idea, I was looking on Pinterest today and I found some pretty cool quotes which might be just perfect for an inspirational Monday. Therefore I thought of listing some of them here and of course, I would love to hear your thoughts about them / about this kind of post and maybe you can tell me your favourite quote, if you have one :)

1. "When nothing is sure, everything is possible."
2. "What if I fall? Oh, but my darling what if you fly?"
3. "Take every chance you get in life because some things only happen ONCE."
4. "Travel makes you realize that no matter how much you know, there's always more to learn."
5. "Take time to do what makes your soul happy."
6. "Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself."
7. "The distance between your dreams and reality is called action."
8. "Make today so awesome yesterday gets jealous."
9. "Be a voice, not an echo."
10. "No one is you and that is your super power." 

So these are the ones I chose for today and I hope they will inspire you :) Speaking of change, you may also notice that I edited my photos a bit different this time and I tried to make them fit my pretty bubble gum pink dress that I chose to wear yesterday. You already know that pink is my happy color and I couldn't be happier that there is such a hype around all shades of pink this season. I can finally wear pink till I drop :)))) This dress is super simple, but the bright colour and the frilled sleeves do all the trick. I chose to wear it with some golden sandals and my colourful new minaudière and I think I got a pretty cheerful, summer appropriate look, right? :) How would you wear this dress?

Have a good, productive week!

Pastels in the wind

Dress / Rochie - HERE / AICI || Bag / Geanta - HERE / AICI || 

Sandals / Sandale - Zara || Earrings / Cercei - Bershka 

I don't think the wind was ever more annoying than yesterday when we had to take these pictures. I mean, the wind blows here 90% of the time, but yesterday I just couldn't catch a break. The hair was constantly on my face / in my mouth, the dress was in all the wrong places, etc., long story short, it was really hard to take a few decent photos! You will understand soon what I'm talking about it :)

Anyway, on Saturday afternoon I received a new package with some adorable new items and the first one that caught my attention was the colourful maxi DRESS that I'm wearing today. I honestly didn't expect it to be so beautiful, but it grew on me instantly when I saw it and I immediately imagined myself wearing it on vacation, at the beach (omg, I can't wait!). The fabric is very flowy and light, the pastel colors are gorgeous and it has the perfect length, aka it goes up to the ground (this is very important for me!). I also find the style of this dress to be very unique, feminine and somehow charming and not something you see everyday.
I am usually a European size S-M and I got this one in size M because I was afraid it won't be long enough for me, which is why it is a bit large in the chest area but that is not something that bothers me. Point is, always measure yourself before ordering :) Other than that, because I am not yet on the beach, where I would wear it with some flip flops or flat sandals or even barefoot, I had to wear it in a city-appropriate attire and so I accessorised the DRESS in quite a simple manner with some golden jewellery and sandals and a nude bag. :)

So, my friends, what did we find out from this post?
1. The wind was truly a bitch yesterday and it pissed me off.
2. My obsession for maxi dresses continues. :)
3. I did find this gorgeous colourful dress HERE.
4. You should always check the sizing charts provided on the website and of course compare it with your measurements before ordering.

Having said all this, I wish you all a wonderful new week!
Love, A.

Christmas Outfit #1

Sweater / Pulover - HERE / AICI || Skirt / Fusta - HERE / AICI || 

Boots / Botine - Zara || Bag / Geanta - Primark  

Hey loves, after a long, tiring past week I am back with a first Christmas outfit idea :) I was telling you in my previous post that this week will be all about Xmas and I will prepare two outfits which I find to be very appropriate for you to wear either on Christmas Eve or on Christmas day.

For this first look I chose a golden sweater which caught my attention the very first instant I saw it and I thought it would be perfect on this occasion. I love the fact that it is oversized, so it looks amazing with pants / jeans as well and the quality is very good. On the inside it is in fact black, but it "painted" gold on the outside. The large V-neck allows you to wear it in several ways, like off one shoulder, with necklaces / chokers or just as it is. The sweater is very pretty and a true statement piece and I found it HERE at a very good price, on a new website which I recently discovered.

What I also found on IRISIE.COM is the lovely pleated skirt, in a navy blue shade and velvet material. You all know that velvet is very IN right now and I find it to be very elegant, even royal if you like, and very suitable for the holiday season. Also, the skirt was the perfect match to the golden sweater and I had this outfit in mind from the moment I ordered the two pieces. You can find the skirt HERE, on navy blue or green.

Finally, I completed this outfit with a pair of fishnet tights, my navy blue velvet boots and a navy blue velvet bag with golden details. Let me know what you think and how would you wear this golden sweater.

Wishing you all a golden week!
A.
