Retro striped swimwear


Outside a storm is about to start, it actually started, and I'm thinking beachwear, designer beachwear to be more precise. Even though, I'm not the one to advocate spending a lot of money on a swimsuit, especially if you don't live in a tropical country or go the the pool often, for time to time designer swimwear is welcome. Ok, it's always welcome, but hope you get my point.
I was looking for a one piece swimsuit but found another gorgeous type. I'm absolutely loving this Ginja retro swimsuit! Stripes, on a swimsuit? Perfection, if you ask me. How cute are both the halter vintage style top and the high waist bikini briefs?

What do you think? Did you have the chance to get yourself any beachwear pieces yet?

life lately

instagram (nookie07)
lots of selfies lately, but only because took a lot of pictures... partying with Koko at The Great Gatsby party... awesome, awesome Pixie Shoes, want me a pair of red peep toe pumps now... like I said I couldn't restrain myself regarding the Max White One trunk... fallen in love with combo from RosieTrue, click here to visit the site;  I can't quite figure out if those are shorts or if it's a skirt, never the less it looks great, and the top & tights are a true match;  it's from Nightime Navajo by Amanda Uprichard lookbook, fab, no?.... 
bought me a snail extract face balm, and it's been quite good the last week, hope it stays the same :)

also, I'm super, super excited for an event next week... will tell you more soon...

Outfit post: Colgate Max White One sends you to New York

photos by S@ ProjectFaitytale 

Lovelies, do you know that you’re a smile distance of New York because of the new Colgate Max White One? How’s that possible? Very simple, the new Colgate campaign sends you to New York with a little help of your dashing smile.  All you have to do is go to www.colgatemaxwhite.ro , upload a picture with yourself or you may take it instantly on the website, and besides the NY trip you can win 3 professional photo shoots. Sounds great, right?

Well, there’s an offline part of the campaign too, if you treat yourself with anything from the Colgate Max White One you can win fab prizes on the spot in certain shops. Also, there’s a special Max style team ready to snap your photos on the weekend in selected malls around Bucharest.
Your smile is the best accessory! 


What I would take with me in New York? Apart from the usual casual pieces and comfy shoes so I can stroll the streets of NY in peace, I’d go for a couple of glam items by Romanian designers (getting in the RO Designer Week bandwagon), especially for Pixie Shoes and Arina Varga.
Or, I’d take it empty to fill it with all the goodies I’d buy in New York.
Now ladies, how would you fill the Colgate trunk?

Don’t forget to check out Colgate’s Romania facebook page for more info and enter the contest on ColgateMaxWhite.ro.

1. Arina Varga dress/ Pixie Shoes pumps
2. Zara tee, LaChatterie skirt, Pixies Shoes pumps

I couldn't help myself!!!
Packing in pumps, that's how we do it!
And a Vogue so I don't get bored on the flight, though, I'd probably end up reading Gillian Flynn.
All done!

Currently craving: Skeleton watch

How awesome is this Rotary vintage skeleton watch? I've fallen in love with it on Watch Warehouse.
Well, it's actually a men's watch but I think it would pass just fine as a women's watch too, don't you think so?
Still, there's another skeleton piece that I like from their site, this one is from BCBG,  Elite Sport Auto ladies watch, that is.  Now, don't know about you but I don't usually enjoy square dial watches but this one is quite awesome.
I've been on a little shopping cleanse, didn't bought me anything in quite a while, and now I have this urge get me a lot of items ( it's like an addiction), and a watch is on the list. I just have to wait a little bit more...
Awww, and this Marc Jacobs watch is really fun too!

Outfit post: The Great Gatsby Party

photos by Cristina Hutu
Even though I've not seen the movie yet, last week I attended a The Great Gatsby themed party in Finnish. Yes, I'm perfectly aware that I'm not dressed accordingly but I don't fancy  20's style dresses for myself that much. Still, I did have a feather boa,  and a headband too but that one went to Koko.
The hairstyle was an improvisation too, but not by me, this was the second try because I had a shock when I saw the first time. My reaction"It looks like there's something growing on my head". Don't believe me, see it for yourself here...
 The hairstylist from Finnish who did my hair, was eventually nice enough to change it,  loved the end result ...
Well, I had a blast! I always do in Finnish!

My lovely friend Cristina took all of these, isn't she awesome? Check out a part of her work here, she's a graphic designer too, a very talented one I may add!


Aww, I'll post more photos from the party on facebook!

Simple outfits

A couple of simple outfit ideas, inspired by celebs, for when you are busy, not in the mood to dress up or simply are like me, and just love casual minimal looks.
Still, all the outfits are beautifully constructed.
A first idea, the most basic one is black pants or black tailored shorts, paired with a white top, it can be a blouse a shirt or just a plain tee. If you want to add a little something, something to the look wear bold accessories. 
Extra tip, Sofia Coppola inspired, wear a more fancy top for evening events.

Why not wear a little white dress? They are becoming more and more popular every season. I'm loving Malin's choice and the one shoulder one. You can check out a couple of pretty white frocks, here, here & here.

Jeans or shorts with a white tee, again, simple outfit but with a great effect. Or like Alessandra Ambrosio, work a basic print into the combo, like stripes, and add an accent color. Well, don't forget of the glasses, I'm loving these Chloe sunglasses from Focus Online.

Speaking of basic prints, why not try dots like Diane Kruger and Mollie King, a pretty dotted dress is always welcomed and a polka dots blazer is really fun. Plus it looks awesome. Of course, add a pair of Ray Ban sunnies like the lovely ladies.

As for shoes & bags, if you don't like accent pieces, go for neutral tones or simply black/white items.
