This time it's not classy

If I were to say what kind of person I am in matter of items of clothing I will definitely say I'm a JEANS freak. Maybe it's because I had one pair when I was in high school or maybe it's because I'm sick at some level... but I have around 20 pairs of jeans: boyfriend, skinny, flare, blue, black, gray... you name it.
Am I special in any way? Surely not. Is there someone who doesn't like jeans?

Cum am învățat să comand de pe miniPrix? (Romanian readers only)

Sunt sigură că pentru cititorii fideli ai acestui blog nu mai este un secret că sunt o mare fană miniPrix.
De ce am devenit o fană miniPrix? E simplu, pentru că mi-a permis să-mi cumpăr haine calitative la prețuri rezonabile și care adesea aparțin unor branduri cunoscute.

Majoritatea observațiilor care vin de la cititori mei se referă la disperarea că indiferent cât de mult ar căuta, nu găsesc nimic pe placul lor. Dragi astfel de citititori, am fost și eu în această situație, să-i zicem ingrată... până când am ajuns să împart biroul cu niște fane miniPrix cu ștate mai vechi, care evident m-au pervertit. Am văzut la ele și apoi puțin cât puțin am început să înțeleg cum stă treaba, până când am devenit sportivă de performanță, cum îmi place mie să spun.

Trebuie să menționez că abilitatea mea în a găsi piese de îmbrăcăminte este ajutată și de imaginația mea... o imaginație cu care nu m-am născut ci pe care mi-am cultivat-o de-a lungul anilor din pasiunea pentru modă și din miile de site-uri de modă pe care le urmăresc. Atenție... nu aș vrea să rămâneți cu impresia că mă cred o mare specialistă. Învăț în permanență și încerc să nu fiu ridicolă purtând în același timp ceea ce cred că mă reprezintă pe mine.

Tricou negru - Jolie, mărimea 38 (alegerea mea) :: Jeans boyfriend - Frox, mărimea 30 (alegerea surorii) 

Tricou alb - Hoi Polloi, mărimea 38 (alegerea mea) :: Jeans skinny - FUGA, mărimea 31 (alegerea mea)

I can't stand...

... the incapacity to speak to the person in front of me as if he was my equal... only because he has the pretense he is a boss...
... to be told: "beginning yesterday you are no longer in my heart", without being given an explanation or at least a reason for not being able to give me an explanation...
... the unidirectional dialogue... we are two, but I can't say anything because you don't allow me or because you are to tired by your own speech and now you don't have enough energy to listen to me...
... to see people thinking they are always right and not giving others the chance to tell their own vision over truth...
... to see rich people criticising poor people because the don't have the right accessories or because they don't wear a certain accessory according to their standards...
... to be repeatedly defied, although I'm continuously saying the working schedule starts at 8 o'clock and you continue to come at 9.30... only because you are an arrogant spoiled brat...
... to see the refuse of many of my Romanian cocitizens to emancipate.

P.S. I will allow myself to give a piece of advice:

Respect yourself in everything that you do and you will learn to respect the people around you.

Silence

Today I wanted to write about beautiful views, about life challenges, about wanting to see into the future, about knowing the reason for which everything happens the way it does, about knowing the right thing do do, about knowing the right path to take, about reason for being happy, about reasons for being mad, about being thankful... instead I choose to remain silent... but only in words not in mind...

And here's how a dream starts to come true...

I was telling you in my previous post that starting this blog may have been one of my best decisions in life.
There are many reasons to support this idea and one of them is shown in this post.

I received a few days ago an e-mail from a girl named Anamaria with the subject "Reason of inspiration"... At first I was intrigued...
Of course I opened the e-mail immediately and started reading it. I was overwhelmed by the content, by the intention, by the importance I was given... Me... the simple girl with the complicated mind. This is HUGE!

The e-mail consisted of some special words and the drawings below.

Anamaria, the super talented girl who did all these drawings, told me she felt inspired by me... to CREATE. She told me these drawings reflect the way she sees ME.
Do you understand now why I felt overwhelmed? If this is the way people see me, then I'm definitely on the right track for success. Sorry if I sound a bit cocky.

I believe that everything happens for a reason in life. So I'm thinking... What if we used all these drawings as a point of start for a business collaboration? Our first clothing collection...

I really need your feedback on all this...
How would you have felt if someone told you you inspired them?

P.S. Anamaria currently lives in Germany and manages her own blog. She has many interesting things to say and worth being followed. Why don't you pay her a visit?

...to be continued

Yesterday was a good day because...

I managed to prevent an accident from happening by paying extra attention and pressing the brake pedal in time while a woman was crossing the street without looking both left and right...
I finally got my car washed and, it may seem a bit stupid, but it gave me a good feeling...
I know that in less than 3 weeks I will be on a beach enjoying a cold drink with my top 3 favorite people on this earth: son, husband, sister...
I had a talk with someone who made me realize the key to my future is in my hands... And should always remain there...
I realized that starting this blog may have been one of my best decisions in life.

P.S.
The skirt I'm wearing can be found in the Shop section of this blog.
The credit for these beautiful photos belongs to my husband, who took them, and to our great Nikon camera.

Like, Love, Need, Want

Like - bicycle chair for kids. Me and my husband love to ride the bicycle. Since our son is too small to ride at the same rhythm with us, the chair is the best solution.
Love - sandals. Words can't express how I feel about these sandals. 
Need - solar protection cream, SPF15. In less than 3 weeks we are planning a weekend getaway to the Black Sea and I don't want to get sun burned.
Want - dish washing machine. Is there someone who likes to wash the dishes? I didn't think so... Luckily I have a loving husband who often spares me, but I'm a loving wife too and I really think we should make an effort and buy one...

Like | Love | Need | Want

Like - scaun de bicicletă pentru copii. Eu și cu soțul meu adorăm să ne plimbăm cu bicicleta. Și pentru că fiul nostru este prea mic să pedaleze în același ritm cu noi, aceasta pare a fi cea mai bună soluție.
Love - sandale. Nu pot exprima în cuvinte ce simt când mă uit la aceste sandale. 
Need - cremă pentru protecție solară, SPF 15. În mai puțin de 3 săptămâni plănuim o escapadă de weekend la mare și nu vreau să fac arsuri.
Want - mașină de spălat vase. Este cineva căruia îi place să spele vase? Mă gândeam eu... Noroc că am un soț iubitor care mă scutește adesea, dar și eu sunt o soție iubitoare și cred că ar trebui să facem un efort să cumpărăm una...

It's official

In approximately two months we are going on a 6 days vacation to Paris! My first trip to Paris, yey! For those of you who don't know, this is my 30th birthday present. We managed to book flight tickets and in less than two weeks we are determined to find a convenient place to stay.

I'm not telling you this to be bragging but to ask for your help and advice.

If you've been to Paris before and you want to share with me a bit of your experience regarding places to stay, places to visit, means of transportation, things to eat, places to shop... I will be thankful and happy to read your opinion.

P.S. 1. From my point of view white trousers are a must have for every girl's wardrobe, especially when in summer. I was looking such a pair for a while now and I was very happy when I found it here.
P.S. 2. Ya' I know, I'm a brown maniac.

Zara sandals GIVEAWAY

I have the pleasure to announce the start of a new giveaway. And, to be more precise, I'm talking about a Zara sandals giveaway.
As you have probably already seen, initially I intended to sell them in the Shop my closet section. Afterwards, I came up with a better idea, to give them away.

It's honest to say the sandals are size 39 and have been worn three times. Nonetheless, they are in perfect condition.You can see more pictures with me wearing them here and here.

All you have to do is:
1. Like Zadin on Facebook.
2. Share the giveaway photo.
3. Leave a comment saying "I'm in" to the giveaway photo.

You can win an additional entry for every daily share and "I'm in" comment.
You can win an additional entry for every location you follow me on, just leave me a comment to this post.

The giveaway is international. The winner will be chosen randomly.

That skirt...

I remember 4 months ago, when I bought this skirt, I was very enthusiastic about it. I had another skirt in mind and I wanted badly to create an outfit with a similar one, because I surely wasn't going to pay 481 euros on that one. What could possible justify such a huge price?

Once again I find myself promoting the idea that style and sense of fashion have nothing to do with money. Would you believe me if I told you my skirt was only 5 euros (bought at 50% off)?

Now that you know it cost so little, do you see me differently, do you think less of me? If your answer is YES, you are definitely a snob and you should press the close button of the browser and never come back because we certainly don't have anything in common.  If your answer is NO, you are definitely my kind of person and I advise you to stick around because I promise you won't regret it.

P.S. I want to show my public gratitude to some special girls who managed to make my days better: Felicia, Saci, Anamaria, Georgiana, Debb. Because of people like you, blogging will remain an activity worth keep on doing.
