The London Life

The London Life

If there’s one question I kept getting in the past few months, it has always been ‘How’s the London life?’ and it seemed like more and more people, both from the UK and from abroad, kept asking me the same question with either a very wishful smile of hope that they’ll soon live in London as well or with a scared look for London’s renowned rush. And since the topic kept coming up, I thought I’d share an article with my thoughts on that. I have actually been thinking about it for a while now, trying to ask myself this question over and over again – on the good days and on the bad days so that when I finally sit down to write the article I have an answer that embodies it all. I have always loved London, and you’d think ‘duuh, who doesn’t?’ but not everyone does, London is that one of a kind city, that you either love or hate, there’s rarely any in between. However, before living in London, I used to fall for it every single time I visited it, and I was always drawn in by its unique vibe. So living in London seemed a great idea, even if some deemed it scary or overwhelming. I knew, though, it’s something that I feel in my soul I’ll always want to experiment, so doing what I love – fashion – in the city that has drawn me in over and over again seemed the ideal combo! And it is – oh, dear, there’s not a single day where something new doesn’t happen, a new...
LFW: Take Me Back

LFW: Take Me Back

Hello babes, As I am touring Romania (check my insta for details!) I am sitting in my hotel room looking at graduation dresses and looking for inspiration in all the new collections that we’ve seen throughout fashion month. I’ve spammed my insta stories with them, so you have surely seen them! (sorry not sorry). So I thought as a throwback, I’ll share with you my London Fashion Week memories. I attended LFW for one day honouring an invitation to Paul Costelloe’s show, which was impressive beyond words. The dresses were beautiful and I wanted to buy every single one of them! For the show I wore an outfit inspired from Marta Jacubowski & Stella McCartney’s collections, presented earlier during Fashion Week. I went for something stylish, but also quite comfortable, an outfit ready to take me through Central Line at rush hour! And it worked, my heels were comfortable enough to take me through the day, even though the usual outfit ‘malfunction’ happened in the sens that my boots did not stay ‘over the knee’ throughout the day without my help here and there. But all in all, I enjoyed wearing my outfit, and that is the most important thing for me always, to wear a stylish outfit that gives me the confidence to enjoy my day without thinking too much about it. With that in mind, I’m off browsing some more outfits for my graduation – please let me know if you have any suggestions! Love, D. I was wearing: Skirt – H&M Shirt – Vintage Poncho – Vero Moda Necklace – Avon Boots – New Look Bag...
Sophia Webster – A Rising Star

Sophia Webster – A Rising Star

Hey loves, Today’s inspiration post is about young talent and hard work! Is about a designer who worked her way through university, and her talent got recognized and therefore she got really well-known! And no wonder she did, as soon as I found out about her, I fell for a pair of shoes created by her! So today I shall talk to you about a living proof that believing in yourself and your talent, combined with hard work does get you places! The designer I am talking about is Sophia Webster and she is a shoe designer that just launched her last collection at London Fashion Week yesterday! However, Sophia managed to be one of the London Fashion Week designers after a lot of work and exposure that got her amazing creations recognized! She graduated from a BA degree and a MA degree specialized in footwear that put her in the spotlight and brought her numerous awards, such as the British Fashion Award for Emerging Accessories Designer or the New Gen Award for all her first three seasons she launched! This beautiful piece above is still my favourite of her designs and has a pretty high place on my wish list! Even though it was launched for Autumn/Winter 2015, it is my number one! Buut, she launched a great collection yesterday as for Spring/Summer 2016 in a really interesting set and I am sure I can pick a few pieces to add on to my wish list from there too! Actually, what I like about her designs is that they are unique, but still wearable! It’s not one of...
