A summer wedding

Busy day ahead, but that doesn't mean we don't have to take advantage of what the present moment has to offer.

Probably that is what I would say if I were to talk at a conference like Digital Divas, which is actually (finally!!!) taking place tomorrow. I'll be heading to the Biavatti club at 8:30 (probably covered in concealer to avoid looking like a zombie) to register and get my caffeine dose until the first session (and the one I'm looking forward to the most) starts. Then I'm going to meet all of you there that I haven't met so far and have fun. I guess that sums it up. Also, here's some info on the "star" of the conference: Yvan Rodic.

Yvan Rodic also known as Face Hunter was Born in Vevey, a French-speaking part of Switzerland. Rodic (1977-) studied Communication at Polycom Lausanne before taking on copy writing stints for Leo Burnett and Saatchi & Saatchi in Geneva, Brussels and Paris. A born trend-spotter with a natural eye for photography, it was not long before he combined writing for magazines with snapping pictures of people at art events in his then home, Paris. In February 2006, almost casually, he began posting the results online: and just like that, Face Hunter was born. Widely considered one of the most influential movers and shakers in fashion, his original blog and more recent Visual Diary receive approximately 1 million hits per month. Over this short period, Yvan has been at the vanguard of one of the decade’s most remarkable trends. When he began in 2006, street style blogging was still in its infancy: in part it is thanks to his work that it has subsequently become a phenomenon. As one of those to experience first-hand the insatiable public appetite for a more democratic view on fashion, Yvan found himself caught up in a whirl within the first few months of his website’s inception. With the telling tag line: “Eye Candy for the Style Hungry” above portraits of individual characters with arresting styles, Face Hunter instantly developed a reputation for being one of the most satisfying style destinations online.

But going forward and talking about the post, the pictures were taken in the hotel in Pitesti were I stayed during a friend's wedding. My mom helped me make a dress, a pencil skirt with a silk blouse adorned with lace, but one way or another, I'll have to show it to you in a different setting, as I forgot to pack it for the wedding. Thankfully enough, I'm a mega-packer, so I had one-too-many dresses with me and it wasn't hard to come with a solution. So it happened, that this dress was a perfect fit for such a summery event. I mixed it with my (fabulous) red Stradivarius sandals and the outfit was a blast!

And here's yet another surprise you'll be seeing from now on on the blog: a column!
I'll be adding this little column called "Just a tip" from now and then to my blog posts, just to share bits of experience and help you make wiser and bolder choices for you wardrobe!

Just a tip

When going to a wedding-like event in the summer, make sure your outfit fits in with the dress code. Most events like this, such as a Christening, a wedding, an outdoor cocktail, require light dresses. Go for silk, in flowy and comfy cuts. They not only look good in this kind of evenings/afternoons, but they also prevent you from feeling weird in tight, fitted clothes in the dashing sun. You can go a little bit wild with your accesories, but summer outfits usually go better simpler. Don't forget to add a nice and highly comfortable sandal and you're set to be the queen of the night.

10 Weight Loss Tips for Fashion Bloggers

I am a fashion blogger and therefore I surf through dozens of glossy magazines, websites, lookbooks and so on. And what do I see here? Well, as you might expect, thousands of nice clothes and accesories on gorgeous models that look more than perfect. And doesn't this affect so many women and teenage girls in the way they see themselves? I, myself, have been on a permanent diet for more than 5 years and nothing has helped me reach my true goal weight. But still, there are some things that have helped me get rid of a couple of pounds over the years. And what I haven't lost, I camouflage through clothing (it's a gift, like many of you know!!), like this outfit I wore at this year's Junior Prom :)

Sunt o blogger-ita de moda, prin urmare rasfoiesc duzine intregi de reviste fashion, sitea-uri si pliante si altele. Si ce vad pe-acolo? Pai, cum v-ati astepta, sute de haine si accesorii care de care mai frumoase pe modele care arata mai mult decat perfect. Si nu afecteaza asta intr-un mod ingrozitor felul in care milioane de fete si femei se vad? Eu, cel putin, o tin din dieta in dieta de mai mult de 5 ani de zile si nimic nu m-a ajutat pana acum sa ajung acolo unde-mi doresc. Dar totusi, sunt anumite lucruri care m-au ajutat de-a lungul anilor sa scap de cateva kilograme. Iar ceea ce nu am lasat in urma, camuflez prin haine ( e un dar, multi dintre voi stiti asta!), precum salopeta pe care am purtat-o la Balul Bobocilor de anul acesta:)

Bangs, stars and hearts

Hey,guys ! I'm finally here with an "outfit of the day" post. Haven't done it in a while . And it's not because I've slacked off dressing nice, but because taking photos requires extra attention besides my already hectic life. So , here's the deal for today : not only did I wear this great dress that I hadn't worn in ages , but I spiced up with a turqoise shell necklace and starry converse sneakers. Oh,and did I mention I got bangs ? Which shine in a very intense shade of red ? I'd been wanting a big change for a while and here it came ! I got my hair cut on the very first day of school and absolutely no one would recognise me when I arrived. By the way , I plan to redo my "back to school" outfit these days just to show it to you , because I liked it very much but didn't have the chance to photograph it. I promise to show it to you by Friday. I'm getting so much serious with my blog, now that I organised a giveaway and that I reached 102 followers. See you soon and don't forget to join my Giveaway !

Finding your style

Finally some time in front of the computer for something else than writing essays . I came back to Giurgiu on Sunday and I'm still trying to get back to my usual sleeping schedule. Loved the EYP. More details in the next post ,since I don't have all photos now .
By the way , these are photos of some chocolates I made for my friends : they're dark chocolate with mint and poppy.
You probably remember that in my last post I was talking about a great source I use for inspiration : Chiara . But how could I use inspiration properly , not copying her style , if I didn't have my own . I am not going to lie and say that I have already developed a style of my own . I still search and still make mistakes. I probably love a mix of elegance and laziness , but no one will be surprised if I show up wearing sport's tights and sneakers . I usually wear discrete make-up , just some shaddows in the proper places. But I sometimes exagerate and wear tons of make-up , because I am somehow of an excentric.

Getting your blog to success

Hello, sorry for the delay,but here are some photos of my birthday. Sorry it's been over a month since I should've posted them.

I might not be the best one to talk about blog success , since mine isn't that much of a hit , but in the few months I've been into this business , I've taught myself a couple of things.
