Nordstrom shoes sale, I love Mr. Madden :X

With Paris fw being all over the place I figured I would take a break from enjoying all these fabulous desings and concentrating on something I might actually get :P So I ended up with this shoes list from Nordstrom with some "on sale" items that are so pretty! And they deliver internationally (that's always a problem for me)!
Steve Madden really knows his job well.
Anyway, I hope I'll get my bf to buy me a pair for my up coming birthday :D

A day in the park

The other day we went in the park with Luck (Skywalker), my bf's dog. He's the laziest and stinkiest dog alive! Sometimes I hate his ass, but all in all he's a cute dog and he's never bitten anybody! The weather wasn't very good, it was a cloudy day, but it doesn't get any better around here... Today it was snowing and freezing!!! (I so hope for the spring to come sooner!)

Anyway, I'm sorry for my lack of posts lately, I'm having some hard time being jobless and I don't feel like blogging or...anything, for that matter.

I hope you like our pictures:)



I'm wearing the green gloves I won a while ago on Anna's give away!


I was pretending to follow him with a big stick :)))

That dog never stops smelling everything!! He's a hunting dog, after all...

Happy time


These are some cookies I made a few days ago, they didn't turn out to look as good as I wanted to, but they were very good :D

Basketball cookies for my bf !!!!

The Dolce and Gabbana hysteria!

A few days ago, when I was browsing style.com and looking (drawling...) over the Dolce and Gabbana collection I thought: I have to blog this! Ok....and then!!! Next thing you know, it's all over the place, everybody's talking about it, it is huge, right? I'm not the only one that loved it!

I loved the thing that they put the "underwear as outerwear" trend out there for good! (I secretly hope that I'll live through the day when people will be walking along the streets naked and it will be normal, just for the fun of it, so this is an important step :)) ) I loved the thing that they combined the 2 materials we knew were coming for this summer: velvet and lace! And I loved those little purses that looked like coin little bags!!So sweet!

It was such a beautiful and really wearable way of showing the sexy working woman that can handle the coolest clothes!

Below are a few favorites, I especially liked the ones that showed the red/black and yellow/black combination!

Did you like it as much as I did? What were your favorite pieces?

Prada is losing it!

THE PLATFORM, that is!
And if you remember their spring 2009 RTW collection, you also remember the almost imposible way of walking in those super high platform shoes. Now it apears it's all over. And you know that when Prada is doing it, it won't be long until everybody's going to do it. It happened with the platform, with lace, with underwear as outerwear, etc.

Nevermind the whole air of the collection, a kind of 30 years old office post secretary meets the '70 librarian (this is the vibe it gives me) , the important thing is that soon enough we will lose the platform. I really can't tell if this is good or not, but it's certaily important. We've seen it before in other designers collections, but in a more shy way.

So here are a few of my favorite shoes they presented. (I love the fact that they consolidated the sock + sandal look!)

What do you guys think about this?




















P.S Please believe me when I tell you I read the review of the collection on style.com after I wrote this :)

I heart Alberta Ferretti !

Ever since I started browsing through the fashion world I had a thing for Alberta Ferretti's designs. I love them because they're always feminine in a non cheesy way, they look very seductive, but non cheap sexy, the materials look very comfortable an the color choice is so sophisticated. It's classical elegance without using excessive black. But rather interesting use of beige, turquoise, blue, some light gold.

These collection was astonishing when looking at the sheer dresses that made the models look like they were a Shakespearean fantasy... Like an ode to the idea of women... And still wearable! Those coat are so ready-to-wear! Plus an A+ for loosing the platform!

And the fabrics are also so inspiring! A lot of faux fur, a lot of chiffon, don't you just love this combination?

It is my favorite collection yet, not because it sets some undeniable trends or it's cutting edge, but just because those clothes make me feel so goo when looking at them. Obviously, I don't afford an A.F. piece, but...a girl can only dream!....

If you're around style.com, check out her 2009 F/W RTW , it was magnificent!

What do you guys think?

Below are my favorite items of the collection

Red lips - hot or not?

You might have noticed the big amount of red lips on runways these days. They're already very present in the looks and tutorials of make up artists on youtube and the blogging world and as I see it, it's a big trend of reintroducing the classic red lip as well as the lipstick instead of lip gloss. This is a strong move over at Chanel, they're making big efforts with the new lipstick line to teach women that lipstick it's the feminine , classy, sexy way to do lips.

But do we follow make up trends like we follow clothing trends? Do you? Or do you just wear the make up that looks good on you? Is the red lip something you'll be wearing in the following autumn / winter ?

P.S. Plus what's up with the "no eyebrows" trend? That appears to be everywhere and frankly, I don't like it! Is it suppose to send some kind of cultural message about people nowadays? Will we be the no eyebrow generation in the eyes of the up comming generations ? :)))

Here are a few images from the runways that I thought were significant:

A fun Sunday outfit!

Hy, so here is my Sunday outfit, we went to another city (Tulcea) to visit the Danube Aquarium, it's a very nice museum actually, with both animals and fish from the Danube Delta and a few other places.

I didn't meant to post it at first because I don't think my outfit it's very fashionable, but rather fun instead! I love it anyway, I was feeling a bit of that Kandee (Johnson) spirit and I just went for pink!

Anyway, here are some pictures.

P.S. I feel like I need to apologize for the low posting these couple of weeks, it's because I resigned my job and I'm searching for a new one so things are not very shiny and I don't have a lot of time on my hands. But I will try to post more often, promise! :D

Fishbone jacket, my beloved pink boots, Time Out harem jeans, bag from Paris, old green sport blouse from a Romanian brand, zebra print pink dress turned into top, earrings from the beach somewhere...

Here's me inside the aquarium! Isn't this cool? You would go inside and you would feel like there's only water around you! Very claustrophobic for me, have to say...



This is such a lovely creature, it doesn't live in our sea or in the Danube, I think it lives in the Ocean, isn't it gorgeous?

Here's another one like that, from another angle, it was stuck on the window :P

And Nemo!!!!
