Hello, How is January going? Can you feel the January blues that everyone is talking about? Rumour has it we’re supposed to be lunging for our holiday and keeping a sad face all day to prove that we just want to go back to eating Christmas food and quit this reality. I cannot say I’m happy that the holiday is over, because as you know, for me holidays are more than eating and having fun, they are also a time when I get to see my family and my closest friends. This time, it went by so fast, that I barely saw friends, and instead I prefered to stay as much as I can with my family, especially because, unlike other times, this time I don’t have a set date for when I will be reunited with them. Leaving all that aside, I don’t really feel sad or down or anything like that. I like to see the end of an year as a closure and so the new year is a new beginning. A new chapter ready to be filled with happy days! Unlike others (and me in previous years) this time I didn’t set myself any goal that I know would be impossible to achieve by the end of this month. I decided to give myself time and space to reaccommodate, to find a pace that I’m happy to keep and to go with it! So to fight the blues, I decided to share with you an urban look today. I got my leather jacket with me, put my shades on and walked that walk into the...

Hello beautiful, How have you been? I’ve been dying to break the silence around here for a few days now, but never got around to actually sit down and write a new blog post. Seriously, I don’t even know how my days fly by so fast! I’ve been so caught in this rush recently that I barely had time to shoot new outfits! And then December came, and as you might have seen on Instagram or on Facebook, Christmas meals and social gatherings started so I was a bit busy having a social life! I am so excited for the holidays and for some quiet, peaceful moments at home! However, it won’t be complete relaxation, I have some nice things already scheduled for the blog, cannot wait to share them with you! Until then though, all there is left to do is to run around pretty little Worcester doing my daily errands! Which I don’t complain about, apart from the fact that it’s been super windy. As you may notice from the pictures below, which we struggled to shoot without disappearing into the sky like Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz and ending up in a totally different place (If so, please let it be a hot place. With a beach. And can I land there already tanned? Too far maybe.) So through these windy times, layering is the key for a proper outfit. Here you can check out mine, and my struggle to not lose my hat or end up gone with the wind. Also, I tried to match the colours with the weather, so I went for the...

Hi guys, How have you been? It’s been freezing lately, and I am finally starting to understand that winter is here – that’s it, there’s no turning back. Or is it? It’s England, so it might just turn sunny all of a sudden, you never know. Either way, upgrading my winter wardrobe is in the books, so I shall go for a shopping session soon. And of course, share with you my picks – no worries, I’ll keep you posted! But, as November ends, apart from outfit shopping, we all know it comes the exciting part of the year – buying Christmas presents!! Aaand along with the window shopping that we’ve all been doing so far (you know it) there is this pretty cute thing that also comes around called Christmas Market! If you haven’t been to one, it should definitely be on your wishlist! It’s like entering a totally different, Christmassy, fairytalish world where everything is decorated to match the theme, the stalls are full of hand crafted pretty little things or very tempting food! And not to be forgotten – the mulled wine, hot chocolate and the chestnuts! Those are my favourite part of any Christmas fair! Last Sunday we went to visit the Christmas Market in Birmingham, which is a German one, and, as every year, it didn’t disappoint! It got all of this, and a cozy atmosphere, with Christmas songs and even a live singer! Spending a day at a Christmas Market with good friends made my Sunday great! Now that I think about it, when I was back in Romania, I never got excited...

Well, you already know that I have a crush for capes and that I simply love wearing them. So, when the winter suddenly arrived this week in Worcester, I seized the opportunity and I took my cape for a walk. Even if it got colder, the city has just enhanced its beauty! The contrast between the colours it’s amazing so it’s an absolute joy to walk around the streets or to go along the river…Especially since these days, the Christmas Fayre made the city sparkle and smell like cinnamon and oranges…holidays are coming!! When wearing a cape, I feel like there is no need to try and make it special, it already is! So, with minimum effort, it just creates the classy look for you! Giving that, I didn’t accessorize much: I wore a simple black skirt and a combination of purple shirt and a pink sweater on top to keep me warm! The glam came from the simple neck-line necklace, and the gloves were the perfect addition to make sure my hands stay nice and warm! To be honest, I was a bit redundant when this weather just popped-up and freezed everyone, but now that I got used to do, I start enjoying it because it gives me so many opportunities to become creative, to wear layers and stay warm while fashionable, so I guess it’s not that bad after all! Also, I decided to not complain about stuff anymore, instead enjoy them as they are, so here I am enjoying the not-so-smooth arrival of winter! I hope your week went well and that you’re ready and energized...

November’s here!! Already! I can’t believe how fast time flies! Anyway, this means only one thing: that we need to gather as many inspiration as possible to wear the beautiful wonter coats that we’ve all been waiting for! There has to be a good thing in all this cold coming up, right? So, today I present to you my top 5 coats to be worn during cold times. I confess some are still on my wishlist, some I couldn’t resist without, but all in all these are the coats that can keep you warm and still in style through the winter. First one is the cape. You know from the last post that I have a crush on capes, and when it comes to a cape coat, it’s even cozier! Bottom line is that it goes on my favourites list, to be worn on beautiful, but cold days. Second one is the leather jacket which may give you a tough look, but it will go amazing with skirts and girly accessories too, try it out! It doesn’t even have to be black, and then it will be even more feminine-friendly! The third one is a red coat! I am a colour lover, especially of red, because it gives you that bold, out-of-the crowd look! In these days when everyone finds black a comfortable choice, I prefer going for a strong red, it will bring colour to the streets, and to my days too! Fourth one is the fur coat! Faux fur – of course, as I am an animal lover, but I will always have a crush for these...
