Queen Bey

Since everyone on the internet has been talking about Beyonce's visual album, we had to take a look at this. And we just love the Yonce video, featuring Chanel Iman, Jourdan Dunn and Joan Smalls.

If these girls don't get a straight girl confused, we don't know what else will.




Rihanna for Balmain

Say what you want about Rihanna, but she’s rockin’ whatever she’s wearing. And when you’re wearing Balmain you can never go wrong. The new campaign for the French Maison de Couture featuring Riri is HOT, HOT, HOT or as they say in Paris, C’est tres chaud mon cher! If the sweaters and hot chocolate (or wine) won’t help heaten up your days, these pictures certainly will.

Best beanies money can buy

Best beanies

Best beanies by laura-banciu featuring a black beanie hat


Since it's so freaking cold, it's the best time of the year to wear beanies. So I made a selection of the best ones I could find. The first choice is obvious, since the main reason of wearing a beanie is because your hair looks crappy (find it here etsy.com).
The word of the year was selfie, so everyone who's a fan of that should have this beanie in the closet (New Look). The second word of the year was Twerk, so they made a beanie out of it. This must be Miley's favorite accessory (pacsun.com)
Ahh, one of my favourite words: swag. The color choice is also obvious since on Wednesdays we wear pink (Mean girls reference, Topshop beanie: topshop.com)
Burrrr it's one of Cara's favs, you can find it here: www.shopbrianlichtenberg.com , the "You can\t sit with us" it's another one for the Mean Girls fans, also from etsy.com.
If you love bobble hats, then the Ragged one is for you (Topshop). The last one is not sending a direct message, but the chain really says: I'm so cool and approachable (River island).

Which one is your favorite?

Andreea Tincu & Sense fashion show

It's been a while since I last posted something on my blog, but I couldn't find something worth writing about. So, after I attended Andreea Tincu & Sense fashion show (aka my first fashion show!), thanks to the lovely Denisa from Fashion in my eyes , I figured this would be my triumphal comeback (hahaha).

Basically, there were two collections, the  Sense Fall/Winter 2013/14 and the Andreea Tincu &Sense Spring/Summer 2014.

But first, let me tell you something: I love fashion shows! I've always wanted to be one of those fashionistas in the front row that comments the outfits while they are presented on the runway and I'm very pleased that I got to do it. And hey, where there's champagne and wine you can always count on me!


My outfit: Trench coat from Bershka, Ripped jeans and blouse from New Look, Debenhams boots and H&M rings.

The Sense FW collection it's called "retro vibe" and it's one of the main collections of the brand. The color palette was right on my street: camel, gold and black, with a touch of red. The silhouettes are longline, elegant, that gives you a retro vibe. The collection includes knitwear, lace dresses, wool coats, skirts, in one word: feminine.











The Andreea Tincu & Sense SS collection, called "Early mornings" is based on the designer's view of the rising sunrays on a summer's day. How lovely! It is also inspired from Paul Klee's paintings. This line is feminine as well, delicate and the dresses are fluid, with a subtle transparency. The colors are black and pastel, while the main fabric is silk in various types: organza, veil, chantung.











For more photos and videos of the show, check Sense Romania Facebook page and the official website http://www.fashionsense.ro/.

Burberry Prorsum SS 2014

With fashion enthusiasts in the front row like Alexa Chung, Poppy Delevigne, Harry Styles, Sienna Miller and other fab kids, Christopher Bailey enchanted with his romantic spring/summer collection, in the LadurĂ©e macaroon colours playfully combined with lacy items, while the fall/winter hearts print was replaced by the polka dots and stripes prints.
Light suede tan coats and grey school cardigans were further evidence of Bailey's calm demeanour, as well as the satin coats. 
Accessories wise, the sheepskin clutches completed the looks.
I personally am in love with the looks of this collection and it's probably my favourite from London Fashion Week.

Who's front row at London Fashion Week? Part I

Harry Styles, looking dapper as he we was attending the Burberry Fashion Show in London. He was wearing a top from the Burberry fall/winter collection and his usual jeans.

Tommy Hilfiger fall winter campaign

Since today is the first day of school here, I chose to show you this campaign. The signature preppy look by Tommy Hilfiger takes us to the US university campus, even tough when I look at the photos, I get more like a British vibe. It actually reminds me of this video:

One Direction- Gotta be you

We can see a lot of tweed, varsity jackets and the classic colors of the brand. Makes me want them all! (I love autumn fashion).

Fendi fall/winter campaign

<a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/4779419/?claim=vn2576qq6qt">Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>

In fashion, printed campaigns are still a great way of promotion, when your name is Chanel, Fendi, Dior etc, because magazines like Vogue, ELLE, Harper's Bazaar are still bought regularly and represent the monthly fashion bibles.
That's why I'm going to start a new mini series with the fall/winter campaigns from the labels you all love. First on the list: Fendi with Cara Delevingne (of course), presents their iconic accessory: the baguette, in a new look.
*You know, the baguette that was made famous by Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the city, when the character was mugged on the New York streets*

This time, the campaign has a hypnotic Cara Delevingne, photographed by Karl Lagerfeld himself (when you want something done right, do it yourself) in Rome, Italy and beautiful views of the Roman Skyline.
