Vacation time

Now, while you're all reading this, I'm officially on Spring vacation.
I will get back in a week, when I'm going to show you, in pictures, how it was. I'm actually hoping that we will all get back and share this week's adventures, because I'm sure I'm not the only one taking a vacation. I'm not intending to be totally absent.
I will continue to post updates on Facebook and of course on Instagram, so be sure to follow along because you won't regret it.

With your permission, I decided to extend a few more days the Bershka skirt giveaway.
Both winners, of the skirt and of the sandals, will be announced on 6th of May, I promise.

P.S. These pictures were taken this weekend when I went for a walk with my husband.
Isn't Spring a miracle?

Disclaimer

As a blogger, I find myself going through tens of blogs each week. I use Bloglovin as blog posts reader and if I look there, I realize I'm actually following at least 1000 blogs. What's my point?

I'm just saying that even though I don't have a master degree in fashion I'm a very informed person and I never get out of bed in the morning and grab the first piece that comes into my hand and put it on. I actually prepare my outfit the night before and when choosing the pieces I have in mind everything I see and like in actual trends and of course what my dressing has to offer. What's my point, again?

Every reader who enters this personal space, called zadinblog, should take what I'm presenting as an informed point of view and never as a lesson of fashion.

Those who don't understand that and feel the urge to say mean things are asked to leave this space and go wherever they are welcomed because clearly this is not the space.

I will accept bad comments or critics only from persons who have at least one public outfit post or have a job in fashion.

Boyfriend jeans - my way vs. their way

I'm starting this post by thanking and giving a big hug to all the girls who left such beautiful comments on my previous post. Your words made me felt close to you and made me realize that blogging it's not a waste of time. So, once again, thank you! ♥

Today I want to show you in pictures a trend I really love - boyfriend jeans. This may be a common topic of discussion for fashion bloggers, but this doesn't mean I can't offer you my vision over it.
This is not the first time I'm writing about this topic and for those of you who want to know who "invented" the concept and what are the particularities of this piece of clothing here is the article. You won't regret reading it, I assure you!

What's your opinion on this matter, do you own such a pair of jeans?

7 things you didn't know about me

I was recently challenged by a dear girl, called Ilda, whom I thank deeply, to write 7 things about myself. I would like to mention, for those of you who have the patience to read, that there are three other posts with this theme on this blog (here, here and here).

It's been a while since I said something new about myself and the main reason I'm writing all this down is because I really want you to know me better and realize there is much more substance beyond my daily outfits.

So, here you are:
  1. I'm currently working as Project Manager in the IT industry.
  2. I've been married for five years. Both me and my husband lost, for a while now, our wedding rings. We haven't bought new ones yet.
  3. I  rarely wear lipstick. Most of the times I wear a natural color lip gloss.
  4. This year, on 30th of December, I'll be 30 years old.
  5. I'm celebrating my 30th birthday with a trip to Paris.
  6. Before getting married, me and my husband were together for 9 years.
  7. He is the only guy I have ever been with, from every point of view...
Hope you found my sincerity exercise at least interesting.

Need - I recently discovered this bio ingredients mascara and I would love to try it.
Want - my mornings would be much happier.

Abstinence

This is my favorite part of the year. I love how everything is turning green, I love the blossom trees, I love the warmth of the air.
Other than that I really don't have something notable to share with you.

P.S. 1. I'm a bit upset... I promised myself I won't do any online shopping this month... and I didn't hold to my promise.

Has any of you found the secret of shopping abstinence. If yes, would you care to share it?

P.S. 2. In case you were wondering why my hair is so savage in this pictures... the answer is simple... this is my weekend hair.

Blogger Ambassador for ZorileStore.ro (round II) + GIVEAWAY

I was telling you here that I'm joining the "Blogger Ambassador for ZorileStore.ro" competition. I was very enthusiastic about getting these cool sneakers.

Things didn't go exactly as everyone (myself included) anticipated. The number of participants was so big that by the moment they got the email with my sneakers solicitation they were already out of stock. At first I was very disappointed and thought it would be better to retire myself from the competition. Then an idea crossed my mind.

Why throw away the opportunity of getting a free pair of shoes?

I started searching again on their website and found these cool rock sandals. I usually wear size 39, but considering their size guide I decided to ask for size 40. They were very prompt in sending them but... surprise, surprise... they are to small for me... Of course you might say that because we are talking about sandals this is not that big of a deal. Nonetheless, I  don't feel comfortable having my feet fingers right on the edge of the shoe sole. I don't want to return them because they look so nice and seem to be very qualitative. That's why I'm offering them to one of my Romanian readers.

How do you handle the taking outfit shots routine?

Although it's been more than a year since I started this blog I can't say I've become handy at being a model or at taking outfit shots.
Sometimes I take at least 30-40 photos from which I choose 6-7 seven to post...
Sometimes I don't like the place where I'm taking the photos... because it's either to crowded and people stare at me while modelling, either doesn't emphasize my outfit at all...
Sometimes I don't have a photographer...
Sometimes the weather is bad...
Sometimes I simply can't find the time...
Sometimes I don't feel like taking shots...

Today was a day when none of the above happened. I had my eyes for a while on this place with an amazing view over the Danube and I went out and tried it for this shooting. Hope you like the result.

Some facts...

1. For those of you who read my previous post... hubby came home from Indonesia and we had fireworks from many points of view. :)
2. In a few days he will be leaving to Holland so I'm a bit sad from this point of view, but the good part is that he will be gone for just 12 days. :(
3. Exactly 3 weeks from now we are taking a trip to the mountains. :)
4. Surprisely (or not) almost every piece from today's outfit was bought from miniPrix at 30% off; in addition, the shirt and the trousers were bought from the men section... hope you don't think I've gone insane or that I have a fetish involving man clothes :)
5. For those of you who aren't fans of miniPrix (if there are any) I recreated the outfit using Reserved items. :(
6. How are you? I've missed you! :)

How to change the work outfit into a date outfit

Us, into fashion women, constantly have in mind the following question: what will I wear for that event? Some of us find the answer relatively fast, but some of us, like me, don't.

The idea I came up with, today, is ancient old, but that doesn't mean I can't offer you my view over it. So here you are:
Whenever you have to go on a date or other event, but you don't have enough time to go home and change, take an extra bag containing different accessories from the ones you are already wearing and put them on before leaving work.
 Maybe you won't find yourself very often in this circumstance, but if you will, remember this post.

P.S. I want to share with you a big, big, big joy... Remember I was telling you here that my husband had to go to Indonesia for a period of time. Guess what? He is coming home! Fireworks!!!
