Daydream, I fell asleep beneath the flowers

Skinny Buddha Off Shoulder Denim Dress

For today's post I partnered up with Standfor, a footwear company with a great cause. Their shoes represent action and people who walk for a reason, therefore each collection makes a powerful statement. I picked up their Illusion ankle boot from their second collection called Quit Phubbing and styled it in a very relaxed summer-ish outfit . You might not be familiar with this concept but I can assure you that to some degree we are all doing this, and in fact some of you might be doing this right now without knowing there is a name for it.
Phubbing = Phone + Snubbing and it happens when we ignore the people around us because of technology. I am guilty of it myself, I have to admit. I don't go out as much as I used to before having the baby, but when I meet with my friends, although I am eager to talk to them and socialize I tend to grab the phone to check my social media accounts, emails or start taking photos every couple of minutes. I do it without even thinking, or maybe I am deluding myself that I can multitask but in fact I am just spacing out. We are addicted to our technology and tend to alienate ourselves from real conversations and human contact. So let's put our phones down for a minute and really engage, before we lose our social capabilities for good.
The design of the shoes is quite revolutionary. The gap between the shoe and the outer sole enhances ventilation and allows you to walk more lightly and with greater comfort. The strip divides the shoe in two parts and thus provides more flexibility and durability. I chose the orange strip for this model. They are made of premium microfiber and therefore no animals have been harmed in the making of this footwear.
And because we need to improve the way we share the statements that we stand for, I have a gift for you! You can use the gift card code 0GC0LAW3 to get 30 Euros off your next purchase. The gift card is available until the 30th of June 2017.

I'll wait for you there like a stone

Skinny Buddha buttoned embroidered white blouse

I had a totally different title planned out for this post but this song has been playing on repeat for the past few days and I can't get it out of my head. So sad we lost yet another amazing artist. This song takes me back to my college years when I was living in a dorm and I remember when this album came out it was blasting from our speakers so loud you could hear it from the street. 
On a totally different note, my head has been in the clouds lately, I'm feeling kinda tired and in much need of a vacation. I must have been really spaced out when I placed my order on Zaful, because I ordered a bodysuit one size too big and I thought this was a dress when in fact it's a button down shirt. I had a whole outfit planned in my head and when the package arrived I realized how short this was. I'm not supermodel tall, but I am not petite either (I'm 1,72m) and this is an issue I have to face most of the time when I am shopping online. Some stuff is too short for me and in this case the sleeves are short for me as well. Well, I don't really mind because I like them better rolled up. This would have looked kind of rigid and too covered up with a long sleeve. You know me, I love a black and white combo, so I immediately thought of pairing this shirt with a pair of black skinny jeans and strap high heeled sandals. Threw in a bold orange bag to animate the entire ensemble and I have to say I am more than happy with the result.

Red, red, red

Skinny Buddha red cold-shoulder dress

I can't believe it's warm enough for bare legs and shoulders even in the evening! Hurray! Well, now I actually realize that my legs are super white, cause who has tanned legs in May, right? Not that I get tanned really, I actually love my pale complexion and don't spend too much time in the sun during the summer either. The thing is, I found this supper cute red dress with these beautiful ruffles and bare shoulders and I wouldn't have imagined I would get to wear it so soon. It's the perfect summer dress, super chic and easy to style. I figured I could wear it to an open air party, to the beach or even out while running errands. It can easily be dressed up or down and I cannot wait to see how it looks with sneakers and a cute little backpack.  I used to love wearing red when I was a blonde, but I am beginning to appreciate this color even more with my natural hair color. It's a great contrast. So for this look I decided to go all in. I put on the brightest shade of red lipstick, red and gold sandals and red earrings. I don't have a red bag but this is where I draw the line, it would have been too much red anyway.

Game, Set, Match la Padel Center Dumbravita

Padel Center Dumbravita

Weekendul trecut am petrecut o dimineata super antrenanta alaturi de bloggerii din Timisoara intr-un cadru inedit. De data aceasta nu a fost vorba despre un eveniment fashion, ci de ziua bloggerilor la Padel Center Dumbravita. Am lasat tocurile, gentile si trusa de machiaj acasa si ne-am echipat cat mai sportiv. Derivat din tenis, padel-ul este un sport relativ nou la noi in tara, de care sincer nici nu auzisem inainte de acest eveniment. Ma bucur mult insa ca am acceptat invitatia, pentru ca mi-am inceput ziua intr-un mod foarte agreabil, ne-am distrat impreuna, am facut miscare, si chiar daca adversarii ne-au batut mar in meciul oficial, eu si Laura am facut super echipa si ne-am simtit tare bine. Terenul e mult mai mic decat la tenis, deci nu trebuie sa alergi atat de mult dupa minge, mai ales daca esti incepator ca mine. Bine, am mai jucat eu tenis in spatele blocului, in copilarie, dar asta nu se pune ca a trecut o vesnicie de atunci. De asemenea, terenul e imprejmuit cu sticla, ceea ce e foarte util atunci cand te crezi Simona Halep si dai cate o serva afara din teren, iar rachetele sunt mai mici si extrem de usoare. Padel-ul ne-a pus cu siguranta in miscare toti muschii corpului, chiar si cei pe care nu stiam ca ii avem. Sta marturie usoara febra musculara de a doua zi! 
Daca v-am facut curiosi, Padel Center va asteapta in Dumbravita, Str. Praga nr 6, iar mai multe detalii gasiti pe pagina de Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/PadelCenter.ro/

Be there with bells on

bell sleeves stripes top black culottes

Hello my lovelies! How's this Monday treating you? I've got a fun little outfit ready for you today, something you could wear to the office, out for lunch or for a fun night out with the girls. I find this combo quite versatile. I was telling you in the previous post that I love playing with volumes and that I am obsessed with clothes that have movement. Imagine my excitement when I found this gorgeous striped top with bell sleeves. The ruffles and the bow at the elbow really caught my eye as well. This is such a stunning pieces, definitely a head turner. I wanted to dress it up a bit and went for a pair of black high waisted culottes. They have great movement as well when I walk, so this ensemble is just poetry in motion for me. Added a splash of color with the accessories, cause you know me, I am crazy about the color purple, but if this is too matchy matchy for you, go for separate colors. I was having that kind of bad hair day, because my hair never looks as good as it did at the salon when I got it trimmed and colored, so I decided to give it some texture. This was a really rushed job but I love these loose, messy curls. Until next time, have a great day!

Ruffles galore

Skinny Buddha ruffled off shoulder top

It's the season to splurge on ruffles like never before! If it was up to me, I'd wear them from head to toe. I'd look ridiculous, maybe, but who cares. I love volumes and I love clothes that have movement, so when I feasted my eyes upon this beautiful swanky one-shoulder stripe top from Chicwish it was such an aha moment. I was instantly drawn to the blue version, but there are a couple of other options in pink here and here if you are so inclined. Predictable or not, I decided to wear it with a pair of blue jeans. I bought them about a month ago in a thrift shop back home for super cheap and I actually gasped when I saw the label. They are Calvin Klein and they fit like a glove, which almost never happens when I shop at thrift stores. Best find, so far! To spice up my accessory game I picked up these gorgeous sandals with a striped heel in a beautiful green, blue and black color combo. They will most definitely be my most worn shoes this season. Aren't they so much fun? I feel I should go join a dance class in this outfit. Ole!
