Hello my dear, As you’ve probably noticed on my Instagram I have been checking in and out of airports and hotels lately so I thought I’d check in here as well and give you my latest updates as I’ve been absent from the blogosphere for a bit. As much as the blog is on my mind every single day, I had to move it further down my priorities list so I haven’t posted as often as I would have liked to. However, I have been shooting outfits, brainstorming content ideas and I have some concepts so good that I just know you’ll love them! But as you probably already know by now, I’m quite self critical and so my work has to reach a certain standard – mine! Which is probably the harshest of them all! So it’ll be a while until I implement all the changes, but when I do, they’ll look just how I want them. Until then, while I (try to) stay on top of my busy lifestyle, I thought I’d share with you this outfit that goes easily from day to night, allows you to run around doing errands and ticking things off your to-do list, all while looking well put together, and when the night comes, just take the blazer off and you’re ready to catch the happy hour! In all seriousness now, I’ve found that living in a busy city while being a busy girl really means that your outfits need to be very versatile, especially when working in the fashion industry – you never know what event you might end up to after...

Hello hello, How is it already winter and how are we only 6 weeks away from Christmas? It’s beyond me. And I know you’ve heard this a gazillion times and it’s a world-known cliché, but time flies, man! Like seriously, this year is almost over? Unbelievable! The amount of things that changed this year is huge, but let’s not get to the reflective post on the year just yet, it’s still November, right? Talking about time flying, my last post was on London Fashion Week and I was away with business. Ever since, I travelled a bit more around, but with less work in mind. For starters, I returned to my homie Worcester for a couple of days to throw the mortarboard and graduate. It was such a perfect day, I felt very proud and grateful to be surrounded by my family and friends for my celebrations. Right after (and I mean right after – I didn’t bother to include sleep in my schedule) I went to Paris for a study trip at the Institut Français de la Mode to get some insight on the luxury fashion market, eat from as many boulangeries as possible, cheer glasses of French wines and indulge myself with pretty macarons. And as I usually get inspired from the places I travel, Paris is no exception, it has that ‘je ne sais quoi’ that makes all French people look effortlessly chic – no overflow of accessories, no layering, no overdoing it. I love that. I feel like my style is constantly changing and I’m very keen on trying out different pieces and see what works...

Hello beautiful, Long time, no talking… It seems like it’s been like that for a while now. Truth is, I had to have a break. From life really. As much as all my family and friends told me to take care of myself, it didn’t really hit me until my health slowed me down and even stopped me for a bit. So it got me reflecting. I am a hustler and I know I always talk about that and going that extra mile, but it seems like I left something out of this mix – myself. I left myself behind and focused on work, uni, projects, anything else but myself. And I thought it’d be fineeee, until it put me to bed, literally. For a few days I didn’t have the energy to do anything, I barely worked, crawled to lectures and antibiotics were, well, still are, a big part of my day. So I figured I don’t really have my priorities in order. I still believe in hard work, but I think in between achieving so many great things, what I didn’t achieve was balance. I didn’t balance work and time off and I most certainly didn’t include a healthy eating schedule or sleep in my balance. So my body is fighting back. And yes, I get it. And as much as I don’t consider myself a stubborn person, I guess I am, at least a bit, if it took me a health-check panic to get to these conclusions. And you know what? I still believe that everything happens for a reason, because if I got better in...

Hello beautiful, Have you enjoyed my New Year’s Eve outfit ideas? I hope you liked them and that they got you inspired for the big night that brings us into 2017. And because you should start a new year owning something new, I thought I’d give you a lil’ something to make your outfits picture perfect this year to come. Chokers – probably the most “in” accessory at the moment don’t seem to be going away to quick so I thought you could use one or two. So I am launching 2 giveaway competitions, one on Facebook and one on Instagram. To win a choker through Facebook you need to share this blog post on your timeline (make sure it’s a public post so I can see it) and like both the blog’s Facebook page (here) and Anamelia Fashion’s Facebook page (here). Through instagram, you need to comment on the giveaway picture, found here and follow both my Instagram profile and Anamelia Fashion’s profile, which is tagged in the picture. I really wanted to give you something that you can wear in different ways, and something Romanian, coming from an independent brand that I know created them with love and care. I cannot wait to wrap a little gift and send it your way, so hurry up and join the competition. Deadline is 6th January. Can’t wait to see who’ll wear some of these beautiful chokers in the new year. And as this is my last blog post before the new year, I wish you a Happy New Year and I hope you will be healthy, happy and driven...

Hello my darlings, How was your Christmas? I must say, mine was absolutely amazing. Spending time with my family was all I wanted and it was better that I expected! I ate soooo much food, I sang carols, I made gifts, I opened gifts, I smiled a lot and created beautiful memories. What more could I ask for? I also took a moment to really appreciate everything I have and how blessed I am. Now that Christmas is slowly fading away, our next big celebration is, of course, welcoming 2017! And once you know who you’re spending New Year’s Eve with, where and other boring logistics details, what else is left? To decide what to wear. Yes, I know, the hardest part. So to help you out a little, I paired up with Anamelia Fashion to put together 3 outfits that will hopefully inspire you to create one for yourself! First up is a full velvet look. I know everyone is into velvet these days, and as much as I am not a person that follows trends strictly, this one got me! I absolutely love velvet and everything that comes with it! So my option was a simple dress and a matching purse, which I adore, it’s one of my favourites at the moment! Add a sky high pair of heels and you’re ready to rock the new year! Of course, accessories are what make or break the outfit, so I kept it simple – black velvet choker and voilà! What do you think? Do you like velvet, would you wear it? Let me know! See you tomorrow with another...
