Pause from work

 It felt like Spring today, the sun was shining so beautiful, but there was melted snow everywhere, puddles and mud. Horrible. And I remember that two nights ago it snowed so beautifully, everything was white..Strange. 
Can't take too much time, I have to work, so, see you soon!

Today I...

ll5 

 I just love those jeans and I can't get enough of that cut, but I have to or I'll ruin them in this weather. I walked a lot today in search of a place to shoot, my feet were tired and wet, my hair got frizzy, I was cold and I got moody. Winter sucks for photos, that's the truth! 
I went today to get the photos from my project, (can't wait to make a selection and post them here) and I sat at the pastry shop eating a chocolate croissant (someone's gonna get fat soon); it was just a delicious moment! Those kind of moments that fit in your life perfectly.
Now I am working on some details, so stay tuned for news.

On a quest..for a croissant

crs

Let me tell you what I did today.
 I woke up not exactly in the morning, but with a urge to eat a chocolate croissant with a delicious cappuccino on the side at my favorite pastry shop in Cluj. By the time I arrived downtown, the famous pastry was closed. Actually, all three of them! So my frustration was blowing inside me, I thought of walking around, I entered some shops, tried on some lipsticks to feel better, then I decided to return home. In the bus station I overlooked another pastry shop so I decided to enter and see if they had a croissant - of any kind! It didn't matter at that point. I found the last remaining plain croissant, I took it home with me, it was warm, I made myself a lame cappuccino and melt some chocolate on it, and ate it while I was editing these photos. Fabulous no? 
At least I managed to fulfill my wish. 
Next time I will try to wake up early.. my obsession for chocolate croissants is not over yet.

 P.S. I am wearing here a very cozy new thrifted cardigan! I am so proud of it. Now I am going to see "Les Miserables"; have you seen it yet?

The Yellow Hat

hxv2

I can proudly say that my University project is finished and the worst is over. Today we went at a studio and took professional photos of which I am so excited! I can't wait to receive them next week and show them to you. 
Onto the outfit: this is the yellow hat I was talking about in my earlier posts, isn't it the cutest thing ever? It reminds me of the 1930's style so I tried to recreate an outfit from that time. I put my eyes on it ever since October and I still can't believe I found it on sales now. I guess fashion items have a longer life here than in Bucharest, haha. I remember in Bucharest, there were days when I wanted to buy some precious things that just hit the stores and they were gone within a week or two.
 I'm feeling less stressed now that things are starting to complete - oh wait, I have to study for other two exams for next week - damn! >.<

My own French Revolution

ywg5 

 Red, white and blue, how very French of me right? Oh well, it was coincidence believe me!
 As you can see, Winter Part Two has installed, it was to be expected, it's only the middle of January, but I am thinking about my Spring's new attire, I have some cool ideas in my mind I only need to find the right fabrics, can't wait!
I said on my Twitter that I went for a shopping session the other day and I managed to find this beautiful pair of flare jeans which I am so proud of! I feel sooooo great in this type of jeans and I have been craving for such a pair since..forever! - and the best part is: I found them on sale! Together with that triangular ring.
 I also bought a very cute yellow hat, but I will show it to you some other time.

Call me Grey

vnc4 

 Today I opted for neutral greys, don't ask me why, my mood isn't that down and the fact that I felt some warm Spring air through my lungs usually makes me throw on some color, but not today. I wanted to stay "calm" so to say, but I compensated with that sparkly necklace (which I could wear it with anything, even pajamas!) 
I said on my Twitter that I won't be too active on the blog because exams are approaching and I need to finish my projects which are time consuming (I literally feel that sleeping now is a waste of time!) so excuse my less frequent appearances.
My usual photographer is in the same position as I am so he cannot indulge me at this moment, this time I appealed at my colleague for these shots, which I thank her dearly!

One of those dream dresses..

msd6
Guess what? Just two days ago I received this dress from the lovely people over at Dressestylist not long after they sent me this one. Of course I was psyched when I found out that I am able to choose a second one. This time I opted for a more versatile dress, with a silhouette that reminds us of the '50s fashion and of course...in burgundy!
  What I love most about this particular dress is the bow details around the neck, it makes it so interesting and feminine, just perfect for my taste!
It was such a pleasure taking these photos even though I might have caught another cold, I simply love posing in pretty fabulous dresses that make me feel glamorous and lovable. I can't wait for another occasion to wear it again to be honest.msd7 msd4 msd9 msd3 msd2 msd8 msd1 msd5
After the photoshoot, I ate this deliciousness !
