Give me my leather

Skinny Buddha Embroidered Sweater Quilted Leather Skirt

Hello winter! We had our first snow this weekend. That's the exciting part, but the cold temperatures are surely not something to look forward to. This is one of my favorite outfits lately. In fact I liked it so much I decided to repeat it for the sake of these photos, one week apart. The leather skirt is a recent buy and a must item in my wardrobe. Funny story: went to work one day wearing a dark red leather skirt, only to realize once I got there that my skirt was starting to peel off. Must have been the multiple times I've washed it, or the fact that I hadn't worn it in 2  years and it had been just hanging there in my closet. Something had to be done, so during my lunch break off I went to H&M in the search for a new one. I was supper happy to find this one with a quilted leather detail on the front, front zipper and buckles. To soften what would have otherwise been an all black look, I added this embroidered sweater and a pair of metallic grey flat shoes. I am always on the lookout for great quality shoes, and I found this pair and many other leather shoes online on bonprix.com

One gender

Bonprix stripped hoodie Standfor One Gender shoes

The weekend is the perfect time to wear your coziest hoodie, a pair of jeans and the most comfortable shoes. It's a great recipe for anyone really, one of those androgynous looks that never go out of style. This being said, I am proud to announce that Standfor has launched a new collection called One Gender. It stands for gender equality, based on the fact that we're all human and that's the One Gender that matters. We're all different and that's what makes us interesting. But as far as gender is concerned, we're all really just human beings. For this reason, I've also partnered with Bonprix and picked up this stripped hoodie which is one of those wardrobe staples for both men and women. I just don't know how I lived without one until now, given that I am absolutely obsessed with stripes.

Couleur Caramel Poudre Compacte

Couleur Caramel Poudre Compacte

Tenul meu a devenit destul de sensibil in ultima vreme si mai ales acum ca se apropie sezonul rece are nevoie de o ingrijire aparte. Asa ca in ultima vreme am ales produse naturale, bio, care sa nu incarce tenul si sa nu il agreseze. Despre produsele BIO de la Couleur Caramel pe care le gasiti si in Romania pe site-ul www.naturalparis.ro v-am mai povestit in cateva ocazii (aici si aici) si tot despre un produs de-al lor vreau sa va vorbesc si astazi. Tenul meu are tendinte de ingrasare in zona T, drept urmare un produs esential in rutina mea de beauty zilnica este aplicarea pudrei. Am testat timp de cateva luni aceasta pudra compacta Couleur Caramel si sunt foarte incantata. In primul rand nu contine talc, contine particule de 9 ori mai fine decat o pudra obisnuita, apoi este ambalata intr-un pachet super practic ceea ce imi permite sa o port cu  mine zi de zi si e ideala pentru retusurile de pe parcursul zilei, si nu in ultimul rand are o compozitie 100% naturala, fara parabeni, uleiuri minerale sau produse derivate din petrol. Si totusi ce contine? Pai contine cam asa: Ulei de sambure de strugure, ulei de seminte de floarea soarelui, ulei de soia, ulei de masline si unt de shea. Suna bine, nu?

Skinny Buddha teal twinset trench coat vest

As I was editing the photos for today's post I immediately started to shake and shiver. The thought alone of wearing just a vest and bare arms gives me goose bumps. The truth is these photos were taken a couple of weeks ago when it was still warm enough for such attire but sadly this is no longer the case. Winter is coming, that's for sure! I love items that are super versatile and can be worn in multiple ways, so it's no surprise that when I stumbled upon this 2 in 1 trench coat and vest combo I snatched it instantly. The color was an added bonus, it is such a relief from those bland camel or black standard versions. So basically this is a vest, on top of which you have this crop top with sleeves, and the result is a very chic trench coat. I still plan on wearing the vest in the coming months, maybe with a black turtle neck sweater underneath. I think it would look super nice.

Blue velvet

Boho Embroidered Velvet Dress in Navy Crochet Orange Bag

She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars
She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than may her tender sighs
Love was ours

A whiter shade of pale

Skinny Buddha ruffle long sleeve white dress

2 years ago, I got married at city hall wearing a custom made purple dress with an open back. If I were to do it all over again and let's suppose I were partial to white wedding dresses (which I am not), I would definitely wear this one. I did not pick it up with a wedding in mind, but it does have that certain vibe. Nevertheless, it's a gorgeous dress that can be worn on multiple occasions. I already wore it to work with this black belt and a pair of chunky heel ankle boots. I might have looked a little bit over dressed but I never had an issue with that. During the weekend I dressed it up with this pair of high heel purple boots and a matching bag for date night. And I am already thinking about the next time I'll be wearing it, dressed down a little bit, with a pair of brown flat ankle boots and a couple of layers of long silver necklaces. Who knows, maybe sometime in the future I'll go for a Gothic Lolita styling if I feel like it. The possibilities are endless.

Heaven upside down

Skinny Buddha lace midi skirt

I've been back in the office for a couple of weeks now and my wardrobe needed a little bit of sprucing up. I didn't do much shopping while I was on maternity leave, apart from the items I got through my collaborations, and therefore realized that my office wardrobe was a bit outdated. And because I always try to think outside the box and go for unexpected pieces, I decided that I needed a black midi lace skirt in my life. It's definitely not the first item you might thing of when talking about office attire, but since I am not working in a very restrictive environment, this seemed like the kind of bold choice I could make and get away with. Paired it with a cozy mustard colored sweater, platform boots and a double buckle belt, to add a bit of edge. The other bold recent acquisition is this gorgeous red bag from Musette. I was actually looking to buy the black version but ended up falling for the red one and I have no regrets. No worries if you think this combo is too out there for a day at the office, you can always try for a fancy dinner or out with your friends.

Couleur Caramel Illuminateur

Couleur Caramel Illuminateur

Asa cum va spuneam acum cateva saptamani, cea mai recenta descoperire a mea in materie de produse de ingrijire si machiaj este gama de produse BIO Couleur Caramel. Compania s-a nascut in anul 2003 in Franta, iar in 2006 a obtinut prima certificare Ecocert (ECO & BIO) Cosmebio. Din 2013 sunt parteneri oficiali ai festivalului de film de la Cannes, iar produsele se exporta acum in peste 30 de tari din intreaga lume. In Romania le puteti achizitiona AICI: www.naturalparis.ro
Eu am inceput sa folosesc produsele lor in timpul vacantei in  Muntenegru si m-am indragostit iremediabil de iluminatorul lor, editie limitata din colectia de  primavara-vara. Inca il mai gasiti pe site AICI. Arata grozav pe pielea putin bronzata, dar il folosesc si acum si sunt la fel de incantata. Datorita compozitiei sale pe baza de ulei vegetal de caise si unt de shea bio, se aplica extrem de usor si se topeste in mod natural pe piele. Efectul este cu adevarat wow!
