Awkward silence!
Ohhh...just watch and I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

Comfy Can be Elegant / How to Shop Smart!
Ohhh...it's finally Spring!
Because I'm all about fashion (except the way it affects me...we'll talk about that later), as soon as the sun start warming everything around me, I start thinking about elegant dresses, with perfect shapes and cuts! And when one thinks about that, one sure thinks about the retro designs (or the Japanese patterns...also).
So, I say we enjoy a video from the '40s. IN COLOR!!!
They were simple and elegant and looking perfect. Don't you think? There was a high class when it came to dressing...even for a walk in the park. I wish things would be the same again... I wish that people would start caring more about how they look and understand that the way you present yourself in front of others could be a sign of respect (given to them).
I'm pretty sure you will start saying that not everybody has the money for looking good. People, believe me when I tell you, looking good is not about how much you spend, but how you spend it.
Here are some useful tips on how to look great, on a budget
1. Always be clean and have a clean look!!! I can't stress this enough. No loose hems, no holes in your blouse, no loose seems!!! I think more people should have a home sewing machine, to be able to fix problems like this. They really are not that expensive! BUT, if you don't want to spend on one, just take a needle and a matching sewing thread and start working your fingers on fixing the mess.
It's simply unforgivable to appear in public like that (for man and woman)!
So, it doesn't matter if your clothes aren't the newest. By taking care of them and fixing their problems, you will look great!
2. Be careful what you buy! When it comes to basic pieces I think you could spend more. Because those pieces will be with you for a very very long time (basic pieces are always in...that's why they are called basic). ;)
3. Don't be afraid to check out thrift stores. Other fashion bloggers make a real passion/hobby out of digging for treasures there and they really find them! Don't judge a skirt by the fact that it sits in a pile of fashion wrongs. With a little wash and ironing, it will come back to life!
But! Don't start buying things just because they are cheap! You will end up spending more money (even if you do have more stuff...but you won't wear them!!!). Here too, less is more!
4. Take a look in your mom's or your grandmother's closets. They might still have some great dresses or jackets in there!!!
5. Never-ever buy something that doesn't fit you perfectly!!! If you can't find that perfect fit because you are in between sizes (no worries, most people are), take them to somebody that can fit them for you.
Before doing that, make sure to talk to a seamstress. She can tell you what to buy and what can she adjust, in order for it to be cheap. Being informed it's way easier! For example: you try a pair of pants but they are to big at the waist, fit you perfect on the butt and too long on the leg. This is simple to adjust! Because she only has to fit the waist and cut the length!
Again: when clothes fit you good, you look good!!!
Follow those rules and you will be able to look great, no matter the trends or season.
If you have any questions, I am more then happy to answer them! ;)

For the Easily Distracted
Well, I don't know about you, but this video is surely for me!
Just watch the video and I'll see you a little down the post :D
So? To you tend to get easily distracted?
What are your distractions? Mine are: the laptop and the phone (of course), cigarets and (this is only available when I am really busy) cleaning the house! :))Different poisons for different people, I guess. And even if at first I found the solution incredibly disturbing, being a fashion designer and all that, after a while it makes sens.
So, I guess that Miu-Miu dress that I love so much is in great danger!

Let's Eat!
Dinner for 2!
Lunch for 2!
2 for 2!
When a "2" is involved, it's always sexual! Not only in preparing the food with your own body, but in eating the food also. A "2" is a "2", no matter what!

Hello!
This is me...
Yes...yes...it's in Romanian. Sorry to all of you that don't understand! I'm rambling about what I do, how did I stat doing it and so on. Fashion all the way.
You only have to look at the video to see that I was crazy nervous and tired. It looks like I still have a problem with cameras pointed at me. Even so, I did survive the interview and I'm very happy for that.
Hope you'll enjoy it. Yes, you are aloud to laugh a little. ;))

False Perspective...
As Adam Savage from Mythbusters once said: I reject your reality and substitute my own!It's crazy hot outside and I'm sure the city is melting. The streets are cracking and the buildings are just falling apart. In all this mess, we try to live our normal every0day lives...does it work? For some yes, for some...
The heated air creates illusions...The white light of the sun gives birth the false perspectives. Nothing is real, except for the two of us! Scared? You should, this is a hot summer!

Point of View
There's something special about painting walls with a can of paint.
The black, white, silver and blue lines.
The fat caps and the slim caps.
Filling the contours!
Shaking the cans.
The visual, the noise, the smell...

Penelope and Coco
Meet Penelope and Coco and their new ad campaign for their Pre-Fall 2011 collection!I'm just going to say this: I am in love and I want them on my feet right now! Uh...they look like so much fun! Don't you agree?...So, I said that's the only thing I was going to say, because I wanted you to know the story behind this amazing brand:
On a pursuit to seek the principal spirit behind her style, Marisa Spinella approached her two alter egos. She faultlessly braided these confidants into eccentric characters to bear the journey of Penelope and Coco.Now, are you Coco? Are you Penelope? Or maybe you're just a little of them both! On the Penelope and Coco site, you can pre-order your favorite pair (prices from $298.00 to $482.00)!
Two vivacious, unique personas intertwined to actualize the life of her own...
Penelope is a dainty, classic, vintage lover. She discovers the beauty in odd belongings, applies red lipstick without a pause and is guided by the old Hollywood glamor of miss Rita Hayworth.
Coco is bold, complicated and risqué. Her sexual energy and eccentric mystique has all eyes on her. Regardless of location, a woman with no strongs attached, Coco connects the two personalities by blending her animated emotions with the delicacy and alluring manner of Miss Penelope .






And in the end, here is the video (loveee it):From: C'est La Vie

A Modelist...THE Modelist!
What exactly is/does a modelist? Well, if you will check the dictionary you'll find the simple answer. But when it comes to fashion, things aren't that easy! In fewer words, he or she is the pattern maker, the draper. In reality, they are so much more!
I am more then fascinated with them! With their work! With their capacity to transform 2D in 3D! I'm absolutely sure they just don't see the world as the rest of us...
That's why it gives me great pleasure to introduce you to Nicolas Caito! Discover in this short video from Style.com a small piece of a modelist's wonderful and magical world!
Enjoy the video!

A Modelist...THE Modelist!
One of the lost posts. This one, it's very important for you to watch! I just can't repeat it enough...:))
What exactly is/does a modelist? Well, if you will check the dictionary you'll find the simple answer: a person who makes models. But when it comes to fashion, things aren't that easy! In fewer words, he or she is the pattern maker, the draper..
The one that transforms the 2d dream of a designer, in 3d reality!
I am extremely fascinated with modelists! Why? Well, if you ask me, they just see the world in a different way from the rest of us. A wonderful world of lines, dots, drapes...
Now, meet Nicolas Caito! Enter his world and understand what is it that he does!

Speak to MOI!
I am very excited by this project!
It's just a perfect combination between typography, photography and video! The videos were done as a campaign for EF Language
(the images are part of the videos, just to show some details).
How better to learn a language then by living in the language's most infamous city? By doing so, you can connect images with words, the actions with phrases, the feelings with questions. That's why the campaign has a perfect motto: Live the Language
