ZZ Top – Blue Jeans Blues

EN: Everytime my mom sees me wearing these jeans she’s like “ My poor kid, she has nothing to wear…She basically lives in one single pair of jeans, gifted by strangers from pity. And she wore them so much they have holes… Maybe we should try raising some funds so you can have a decent pair of pants, don’t you think?”

Yep, she hates them. And the truth is, I’m NOT a jeans person at all but these Topshop boyfriend jeans (which by the record, are not gifted and not worn to death-that’s just the way I bought them:P) are really comfy and I like them even though they make me look like a beggar some times:D

My blouse is vintage, my sandals are from Zara and the bag and the accessories are no name and vintage.

RO: De fiecare data cand ma vede maica mea purtand jeansii astia, tine sa faca misto de mine cu texte precum “ Saracul meu copil, n-are cu ce sa se imbrace… Traieste biata de ea intr-o singura pereche de jeansi, si aia primita din mila de la straini. Si i-a purtat asa de mult ca au facut gauri… Poate ar trebui sa facem cheta in bloc ca sa-ti luam si tie o pereche de pantaloni decenti, nu crezi?”

Mda, ii uraste. Iar adevarul este ca eu nu sunt DELOC vreo impatimita a jeansilor dar perechea asta de boyfriend jeans de la Topshop(care apropo, nu sunt nici primiti de la straini si nici purtati pana au facut gauri-pur si simplu asa i-am cumparat:P) sunt tare comfortabli si imi plac chiar daca ma fac sa arat ca o cersatoare uneori:D

Bluza e vintage, sandalele sunt luate din Zara iar geanta si accesoriile sunt no name si vintage.

Toodles!

I’m not saying I want winter back (god forbid, I’m mortified just thinking about that crapy ice and the cold) but as much as I love summer and the friendly temperatures, I have to admit I miss layering, wearing my vintage hats, over the knee boots, cozy jumpers and above all, my blazers. Most of them are too thick to wear during August so lately I’ve been on a continuous search for the perfect summer blazer or at least a shirt that looks like one. I finally found this one at H&M and it’s pretty much what I wanted-light, made from a soft fabric and perfect for layering.

In niciun caz nu-mi doresc sa vina iarna(doamne fereste, ma cuprinde spaima doar cand ma gandesc la porcaria aia de gheata care va fi pe asfalt si frigul insuportabil) dar oricat de mult as iubi vara si temperaturile prietenoase, recunosc ca mi-e dor sa port straturi, sa port palariile mele vintage, cizmele peste genunchi, puloverele pufoase si inainte de toate, sacourile. Majoritatea pe care le am sunt mult prea groase de purtat in August asa ca in ultimul timp am fost intr-o cautare continua a sacoului perfect pe timp de vara sau macar o camasa croita ca un sacou. Am gasit in sfarsit pe acesta mov la H&M si in mare, e cam tot ce mi-am dorit-subtire, facut dintr-un material moale si placut si foarte bun pentru straturi.

Here I’m wearing it with Topshop shorts, a vintage shirt, Steve Madden sandals, vintage YSL necklace, ASOS watch and Dasha clutch.

Aici il port alaturi de pantaloni scurti Topshop, o camasa vintage, sandale Steve Madden, lant vintage YSL, ceas asos si plic Dasha.

Toodles!

Took these photos last week before taking my litlle brother to football practice. I was dressed pretty casual in this 60’s inspired dress that I had for a while. It’s from H&M and not really my type with that boxy shape but I still like the way it fits:)

Am facut pozele acestea saptamana trecuta inainte de a-l duce pe fratele meu mai mic la antrenament, la fotbal. M-am imbracat destul de casual intr-o rochie gen anii 60(imi aduce aminte de Twiggy intr-un fel) luata din H&M acum ceva vreme. Forma patratoasa nu e tocmai genul meu dar imi place cum vine:)

As you probably notice, I wasn’t wearing too many accessories (no, 3 rings, sunglasses, a bag and shoes don’t qualify for many if you ask me) cause I needed my hands bare for later on when I went vintage shopping with my mom. I found the most amazing Lanvin jacket that day! I think I’m gonna do a post about the vintage pieces I found lately cause there are a few gorgeous things that I think you guys are gonna love!

Poate ati observat ca nu am purtat multe accesorii(nu, 3 inele, ochelari de soare, geanta si pantofii nu se califica in categoria “multe” daca ma intrebati pe mine) din cauza ca am mers cu mama mai tarziu la cumparaturi prin sh uri si acolo trebuie dexteritate cand cotrobai, nu e de bijuterii:)) Am avut noroc in ziua aia, am gasit o senzationala jacheta Lanvin! Cred ca o sa fac in curand o postare cu ultimele noutati in materie de vintage pentru ca am gasit cateva lucruri superbe care cred ca v-ar place si voua!

Dress/Rochie: old H&M
Sandals/Sandale: no name
Bag/Geanta: vintage Chanel
Sunglasses/Ochelari de soare: ASOS
Rings/Inele: H&M and no name

Toodles!

EN: Last Monday, I spent a lovely day with the girls from The Hearabouts: Sandra and Evelina. Sandra is one of those people whose legs go on for miles(I secretly hate her for that) and Eve, let’s just say I would like to have her hair. Anyway, the girls came in my hometown and we went vintage shopping, walked for miles, met a naked guy at Mc’Donalds (seriously, there was a dude walking inside the fast food wearing just some kind of briefs….ok, scary enough), laughed a lot, talked a lot and took a few pictures!

RO: Lunea trecuta am petrecut o zi frumoasa cu fetele de la The Hearabouts: Sandra si Evelina. Sandra e una din persoanele alea cu picioare interminabile care ma enerveaza pe mine foarte tare(bine, eu defapt o urasc pentru asta) iar Evelina…sa zicem doar ca mi-ar place sa am parul ei. Fetele au venit in oras la mine si am fost in cautare de comori vintage, am mers mult, am dat de un nene dezbracat la Mc’Donalds(pe bune, era un ticnit care a intrat in fast food doar in chiloti. Sexi grav…dar ne-a cam speriat. L-au ridicat cu politia sau ceva), am ras mult, am vorbit mult si am facut si cateva poze!

I wore one of my favourite granny dresses

Eu am purtat una din rochiile mele de bunicuta preferate

No name and vintage jewllery and 6 inch heels, of course

Bijuterii no name si vintage si tocuri de 15, evident

Seeeeeeeeeeeee? Even with 6 inch plus and I’m not as tall as Sandra is! And she was wearing flats! Damn…

Vedeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeti? Chiar si cu ditai tocurile si tot nu sunt cat Sandra! Si purta balerini:| Fir-ar

That’s the hair I’m talking about, I love it!

Despre parul asta vorbesc:D Imi place mult!

I would just like to say happy birthday for their blog 1 year anniversary! I would’ve bought a cake or something if I knew earlier… So Happy Birthday, girls! xoxox

In inchiere as vrea sa le urez un calduros la multi ani pentru aniversarea de 1 an a blogului lor! As fi luat un tort sau ceva daca stiam de mai devreme… Deci LA MULTI ANI, fetelor! :*:*:*

EN: My inspiration for this outfit came from Uliana Sergienko. You know…that gorgeous russian babe, with blue eyes, full lips, long legs and killer style? Perfection if you ask me. She drives me nuts with those skirts of hers and the hiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh heels!

RO: Inspiratia mea pentru tinuta asta a plecat de la Uliana Sergienko. Stiti voi…rusoaica aceea superba, cu ochi albastrii, buze pline, picioare lungi si un stil genial? Perfect daca ma intrebati pe mine. Ma obsedeaza cu fustele alea ale ei lungi si tocurile inaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalte!

Anyway, I started with this pleated yellow skirt(which I totally love) and as much as I wanted to create a more romantic outfit with a sheer shirt and a cute clutch, I had to go with a crop top and a big bag to fit all the junk I had to carry with me while running errands in the city at 90ºF.

Asadar, am plecat de la fusta plisata galbena(pe care o iubesc) cu ideea de a crea o tinuta eleganta si romantica dar oricat mi-as fi dorit eu asta, a trebuit sa ma multumesc cu un top scurt si o geanta mare in care sa-mi incapa toate porcariile de carat cu mine cat imi fac treburile prin oras. In amaiaza mare, la doar 33 de grade.

I’m wearing a vintage skirt, New Yorker crop top, Topshop shoes, no name accessories and vintage Moschino belt.

Port o fusta vintage, top New Yorker, pantofi Topshop, accesorii no name si curea vintage Moschino.

Despite the heat, the many blocks I had to walk and the stares, I felt really fabulous dressed like this:) What clothes make YOU feel fabulous?

Insa in ciuda caldurii, multelor strazi colindate si a holbarilor, m-am simtit cu adevarat fabulos imbracata asa:) Pe VOI ce haine va fac sa va simtiti fabulos?

EN: Do you like my top? Well, it’s not actually a top but a vintage Christian Dior swimsuit that stirred up a bundle of mixed emotions the last time I wore it. I was out with my boyfriend and he was saying something about my top(can’t remember what) and as he was speaking I told him it was not a top but swimwear. And he was like “you are wearing a swimsuit?:| Now?!?!”.
“Yep. So what? You wouldn’t know if I didn’t tell you anyway”
Just for the record, he loves it anyway:P

RO: Va place topul meu? Ei bine, defapt nu prea e un top ci un costum de baie vintage Christian Dior care a starnit o serie de reactii diferite ultima data cand l-am purtat. Eram afara cu prietenul meu iar el zicea ceva de top(nu mai stiu ce) si in timp ce vorbea, i-am spus ca nu e niciun top, ci costum de baie. Iar el era stupefiat:
“Adica ce porti tu acum e un costum de baie?!?! :|”
“ Dap. Si daca e, ce? Oricum nu-ti dadeai seama daca nu-ti spuneam eu”
Eh, pana la urma se pare ca-i place si asa:P

EN: Don’t get me wrong, it’s great for the pool but I like it more as a top! And I’m crazy about that backless cut… I plan on wearing it with a lot of stuff, from wide leg pants to maxi and midi skirts…

RO: Nu ma intelegeti gresit, e grozav si pentru piscina dar mie imi place mai mult ca top! Iar croiala aceea cu spatele gol ma innebuneste… Am de gand sa-l port cu multe lucruri, de la pantaloni largi pana la fuste maxi si midi…

I love these shoes!

Top(swimear)/Top(costum de baie): vintage Christian Dior
Skirt/Fusta: River Island
Belt/Curea: vintage Escada
Shoes/Pantofi: no name
Watch/Ceas: ASOS
Bag/Geanta: vintage

P.S. Last week I answered to a few questions in a cute interview the lovely Kristel from En la moda did with me. You can read it here if you like:)

P.S. Saptamana trecuta am raspuns catorva intrebari intr-un interviu dragut pe care Kristel, detinatoarea blogului En la moda, mi le-a adresat. Il puteti citi aici daca vreti:)

Toodles!

Sequins are something that I usually didn’t wear…untill recently. I don’t know why but I used to have something against sequins, satin and everything glittery and that’s why this blue sequined top is the only shiny thing in my closet. I got it about 2 weeks ago and since then I kept thinking how to wear it and on what occasion(obvious, I came to no conclusion). So, last weekend I finally got to wear it. No special event to attend, I wore it just because I wanted to and because I feel good in it. And after all…why should I need a special occasion to wear something that makes me feel good?:)

Paietele sunt ceva ce eu in mod normal nu purtam….pana de curand. Nu stiu de ce dar aveam o chestie care ma tinea departe de paiete, satin si in general de lucruri sclipicioase, motiv pentru care topul acesta albastru este singurul si cel mai lucios obiect din garderoba mea. L-am luat acum vreo 2 saptamani si de atunci m-am tot gandit cu ce sa-l port si cu ce ocazie(evident n-am ajuns la nicio concluzie). Asa ca weekendul trecut l-am scos in lume fara vreun eveniment deosebit la orizont, doar pentru ca asa am vrut si pentru ca ma simt bine in el. Si pana la urma…de ce ar fi nevoie de o ocazie speciala ca sa port ceva care ma face sa ma simt bine?:)

Worn with vintage pants, no name belt, YSL vintage necklace and ASOS shoes and watch.

How do you feel about sequins/glitter? Yay or nay? 😀
