Necktie With A Twist

Hello there!



Yesterday was really beautiful in Bucharest, sunny and really warm outside, after many cold days, and I took the chance and made some photos with the outfit that I wore. The photos are better than the ones from my other outfit post, and the hair is not as messy, I'm improving!
I recently bought an oversized shirt like the ones men wear and I was so anxious to wear it, but with the weather my anxiousness had to wait. Meanwhile, I remembered that I had a necktie somewhere in my closet and thought that maybe it will look good with the shirt. But it was a bit plain, as the necktie was white with small stripes and the shirt was also white (well I still think that, even with all the accessories, the look is a bit plain, a waistcoat would have improved it a bit, too late though), so I put a cameo brooch, which I think looks great with a necktie, and a black necklace under it to give it some style.
So the outfit is composed of an oversized boyfriend shirt, skinny jeans (I'm obsessed with skinny jeans so you'll see me in them most of the time), a white necktie with black stripes, a cameo brooch, a black necklace, a cameo ring, a pair of platform shoe boots and a vintage looking bag (which is not vintage). Oh, and a leather jacket, it was chilly in the morning.

Ieri a fost tare frumos in Bucuresti, soare si destul de cald afara, dupa multe zile reci, asa ca am profitat de ocazie si am facut cateva poze cu tinuta pe care o purtam. Pozele sunt ceva mai bune decat cele din celalat post cu stil personal, parul nu a mai fost nici el asa de ravasit, progresez!
Recent am cumparat o camasa supradimensionata ca cele pe care le poarta barbatii si eram tare nerabdatoare sa o port, dar cu vremea de afara nerabdarea mea a tb sa mai astepte. Intre timp mi'am amintit ca aveam o cravata pe undeva prin sifonier si m'am gandit ca poate o sa dea bine cu camasa. Insa arata putin cam simplu, sters, cravata fiind alba cu niste dungi negre subtiri si camasa tot alba (bine tot sunt de parere ca e putin cam sters, cu toate accesoriile pe care le'am pus, poate ca o vesta ar fi imbunatatit putin, cam tarziu insa), asa ca am pus o brosa cameo, care mi se pare ca arata genial cu o cravata, si niste margele negre pt a'i conferi putin stil.
Asadar, tinuta este alcatuita din camasa "prietenului" supradimensionata, skinny jeans (sunt obsedata cu blugii skinny, asa ca o sa ma vedeti cu ei mai mereu), o cravata alba cu dungi negre, o brosa cameo, niste margele negre, un inel cameo, o pereche de botine si o geanta care arata vintage, dar nu e. Ah si o geaca de piele, a fost cam racoare de dimineata.

Selections for Fall/Winter 2011/2012

Hello there!

It passed alot since my last post, but I'm back! Unfortunately I was a bit busy, also the weather here is awful, it's so so cold, and I couldn't bring myself to post anything.
So a short post for today with mostly photos selected from different fall/winter collections presented at Paris Fashion Week, that reflect the best the fabrics, colours and lets say trends for this season. Some I've chosen because I found them to be very interesting, like Hermes and Mugler, and the rest well because I think you can find something similar in the stores, if you look hard enough, and also because I like them.

A trecut ceva vreme de la ultimul post, dar m'am intors! Din pacate am fost putin ocupata, apoi vremea de aici este ingrozitoare, este atat de frig, si nu prea am fost in stare sa ma adun ca sa postez ceva.
Asa ca un post scurt pt azi alcatuit in mare din fotografii selectate din diferite colectii de toamna/iarna prezentate la Paris Fashion Week, care reflecta cel mai bine materialele, culorile si sa zicem trendurile pt acest sezon. Unele le'am ales pt ca le'am gasit a fi tare interesante, precum Hermes si Mugler, iar restul pt ca m'am gandit ca veti gasi ceva similar in magazine, daca o sa cautati bine, si bineinteles pt ca mi'au placut.

Now the photos! (taken from http://www.vogue.it/)

Stripes and Black&White



As it was such a beautifull autumn day, after so many cold and rainy ones, I thought that it would be great if I would take some photos for my first personal style post. Well I've taken the photos, but their quality is not that great as I forgot to set my camera for outside photos and to clean the lenses, and the focus could be better also and my hair is a bit messy too. But all in all I think they're ok. The black&white photos I think are better (I took some b&w ones also because i really love this kind of photos). So for today my outfit was composed of a beige blazer, a striped blouse, some skinny jeans and a pair of black pumps with very high heels. As for the accessories a necklace, a cameo ring, which you can't see it very well, and a black box bag. What I love the most are the blazer which is so cozy and the pumps, I searched for them a while until I've found them.
Well I hope you'll like the outfit and the photos.

 Astazi a fost asa o zi frumoasa de toamna, dupa atatea in care a fost frig si a plouat, asa ca m'am gandit ca ar fi genial daca as face cateva poze pt primul meu post din categoria stil personal. Am facut pozele, insa calitatea nu e grozava, avand in vedere ca am uitat sa imi setez aparatul pt poze de exterior si sa curat obiectivul putin, iar focalizarea ar fi putut fi mai buna si nici parul nu sta prea bine, e putin cam ravasit. Dar in final cred ca sunt cat de cat ok. Cred ca pozele alb&negru sunt ceva mai bune (am facut si cateva alb&negru pt ca iubesc genul asta de fotografii). Pt. azi tinuta a fost alcatuita dintr'un sacou bej, o bluza in dungi, niste skinny jeans si o pereche de pantofi negri cu tocuri foarte mari. In ceea ce priveste accessoriile un colier, un inel cameo pe care nu il puteti vedea prea bine si o geanta neagra gen "cutie". Ceea ce imi place cel mai mult din toata tinuta sunt sacoul care este tare lejer si pantofii, pe care i'am cautat ceva vreme pana sa'i gasesc.
Acum sper sa va placa tinuta si pozele.

Glitter & Prints from Vivienne Westwood for F/W 2011/2012

Glitter and prints, this is what Vivienne Westwood brings to the table for her Ready-to-Wear F/W 2011/2012 collection. As she has accustomed us, again we can see bold, bright and colorful creations, different from those of the other designers. A combination of tribal & punk elements, with a strange makeup, that somehow makes me think of some egyptian dark witches or the african shamans, describes the best the style of Vivienne Westwood. After all the black and thoes very tailored collection, we needed something different, and that you know you can find it in Vivienne Westwoods collections.
For the colors we have gold, brown, orange, yellow, black, grey, some white, blue, burgundy and lots of prints, mostly in orange and brown.
Sequins dominate the podium, succeded by jersey, silk, tulle, velvet, wool and cotton.
As for the clothes, Vivienne Westwood suggests casual dresses, capes and voluminous blouses worn with high waisted pencil skirts or suits, sparkling jumpsuits, wool coats, skinny trousers in tones of gold or silver, 3/4 socks and tights with different leg colours, high waisted trousers, some knitwear, jumpsuits and day dresses in tribal prints, long skirts, for the night there are gold dresses and some black elegant ones, some dresses have exagerated proportions and the collection ends with a too safe wedding dress, in my opinion.
All the outfits are being worn with glittery gold or sparkling blue shoes and boots.
The clothes are draped and dominated by prints, some dresses have a very gothic look, for me very "Corps Bride" looking, all in all a nice collection.
The colours are not really me, I don't wear brown or orange (well except a brown bag that I've recently got) or prints, I like the draping, some pants, a skirt and the gold colour. That's it for me, I hope you'll like it.


Sclipici si imprimeuri, asta este ceea ce Vivienne Westwood aduce cu colectia sa pret-a-porter pentru toamna-iarna 2011/2012. Asa cum ne'a obisnuit, putem vedea din nou creatii curajoase, stralucitoare si pline de culoare, diferite de cele ale celorlalti designeri. O combinatie de elemente tribale si punk, cu un machiaj bizar, care ma face sa ma gandesc la niste vrajitoare egiptene sau la samanii africani, descriu cel mai bine stilul lui Vivienne Westwood. Dupa atata negru si colectii cu o croiala foarte rigida, aveam nevoie de ceva diferit, pe care stii ca il gasesti in colectiile lui Vivienne Westwood.
Ca si culori avem auriu, maro, portocaliu, galben, negru, gri, putin alb, albastru, rosu burgund si multe imprimeuri, majoritatea maro sau portocalii.
Paietele domina podiumul, urmate de jersey (tricot subtire), matase, tulle, catifea, lana si bumbac.
In ceea ce priveste hainele, Vivienne Westwood propune rochii lejere, pelerine si bluze voluminoase purtate cu fuste creion cu talie inalta sau cu costume, jumpsuituri stralucitoare, haine de lana, pantaloni skinny in nuante de auriu sau argintiu, sosete de 3/4 si ciorapi subtiri cu diferite culori pt fiecare picior, pantaloni cu talie inalta, ceva tricotaje, jumpsuituri si rochii de zi cu imprimeuri tribale, fuste lungi, pt noapte avem rochii aurii si cateva negre, mai elegante, unele rochii au proportii exagerate, iar colectia se termina cu o rochie de mireasa putin cam banala, in opinia mea.
Toate tinutele sunt purtate cu pantofi sau cizme in culori precum sclipici auriu sau albastru stralucitor.
Hainele sunt dominate de printuri, unele rochii au un aspect foarte gotic, pentru mine aduce a "Corps Bride", insa in final este o colectie interesanta.
Culorile nu sunt tocmai pt mine, nu port maro sau portocaliu (bine, exceptand ultima geanta pe care am cumparat'o, care este maro) sau imprimeuri, imi place cum sunt croite hainele, mai mi'au placut niste pantaloni, o fusta si auriul. Cam atat pt mine, sper sa va placa.
