Happy International Women’s Day! I didn’t want for this day to pass without a little celebration here, on Destray, as well. I know I’ve been caught up in all my other projects and haven’t blogged for a bit, but hey, I am here today and I am very excited to celebrate every single woman for her amazing contribution to this world. I am lucky enough to have a tremendous amount of women that inspire me in my life, some whom I see daily, some whom are always in my heart, some whom I cross paths with and some whom I simply look up to from far away. I wanted to publish this post along with this photoshoot because I truly believe in Queen B’s lyrics (still love her, yes!) that “Diva is a female version of a hustler”. Or at least this is how I now perceive it. I used to be put down by the fact that people called me a diva, or bossy, or a workaholic, all these words seemed to be used to give me such a bad name, to make me feel bad for what I do, for who I am. But I have learned to listen to myself before I’ve listened to others, and now I just embrace who I am. Yes, I work a lot, yes, I aspire to be fully independent and yes, I am a hustler. And this is why I chose this shoot in particular. I didn’t want to post a pretty dress, heels and flowers, only because that’s how a post that celebrates women “should” look like. I wanted...

Hey loves, The weekend is here, wooo!! And I just enjoyed a beautiful lazy morning in bed with some good music and muffins. Just perfect! You know what they say – the time you enjoy wasting it’s not wasted time! But being the workaholic that I am it’s time to hit the road and be productive. Actually, I’ll start by writing this post… If you know me, you know I am not really a sporty style person, I enjoy much more heels and classy outfits. However, as I really like trying new things I embraced the sneakers trend, and well…okay, okay, I love it! Yes, my dear friends that could not persuade me into wearing this, now is the time to say “I told you!”, I will give you a minute. Truth is, I only like some sneakers with jeans, so I had to find this pair of Nikes that I had at home to picture that it might actually go well with jeans and a loose shirt. But you have to admit that the sunnies also do their part. The whole outfit made me feel like a cool kid, yeah, it did. The sunglasses were actually a bargain that I found at a sunglasses boutique by the seaside, I’m telling you, Romania is really good for this kind of cheap and chic pieces! Now that I am officially a “cool kid”, I am looking for another perfect pair of sneakers that would make me drop the heels and enjoy them on a weekend, so if you have your eyes on any – give me a shout! And also, let...

Mornin’ dears, The day you’ve all been waiting for this week is here – it’s Fridaaaay yaaay! Any plans for the weekend? I hope you have a great one planned ahead, or that you’ll be spontaneous and turn it into a great one! Whichever the case is, try to enjoy Friday too because, you know, it’s one day you never get back. And then you’ll find yourself lunging for it, so you better live for the moment and enjoy every bit of your life! When I say lunging for a moment, I picture myself still listening to live DJ sets from Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike or some of the most well-known songs of Avicii or David Guetta, and picturing myself back into those days when I was in an Untold world and I danced and sang every day and basically, lived with a constant smile on my face because of that great vibe that surrounded me! It was that freedom of being yourself and enjoying the music and living it to the fullest! Or at least that’s what my version of it is! 🙂 While on the first day I went with a basic-expected-festival outfit with boots and a jeans shirt (here if you missed it), on the second day I started warming up and anticipating that I will be jumping the whole night, so I went prepared! I put on my sneakers and there I went! Ready to dance the night away! I kept the girly thing though, I wore a dress. This dress just got my attention the moment I saw it in a fashion boutique...
