Gingham, plaid, checks, glen plaids...we just can't seem to settle on one of these! It's probably the coolest trend of the moment and everybody is trying to sport it. From masculine suits to coats, shoes and even accessories, it's the among the top trends for this AW. 

How I chose to wear it now? As an updated 90's power suit - although they're all separates  - with a deconstructed shirt, gingham kitten heels, a gorgeous pearl-embellished handbag and of course 90's sunglasses as sported by Kurt Cobain back in the days. This mix can be worn anywhere from office to a night out, depending on the accessorising and by thinking about those details that truly matter.

I adore oversized shirts and my latest obsession is to wear them unbuttoned at the top buttons - just make it off shoulder, wear it half tucked, relaxed and be feminine. The pearl-embellished bucket bag is to die for...it features a long gold chain too, in case you want to wear it as a cross-body or on your shoulder. I prefer it as a hand bag as I tend to stuff it and the chain becomes painful to wear. The conclusion? Say yes to kitten heels and another big yes to mix and matching plaids.

Cluj-Napoca, my home town is such a beautiful place! It has tons of pubs, bars, restaurants all open until very late at night/morning, great outdoors and architecture and above all, it has my family and my highschool gang (the most fun in the world!). 

Whenever I'm back home - especially for the summer - I love going out as much as I can and making the most of my time. And because the days are hotter than hell, the evenings/nights seem the only normal option, which allows you to breathe and actually wear clothes, haha! Today Cristian and I went to the pool and swam a lot so I was really tired this evening, but after a quick shower we decided to go out and shoot for this new blog post first. I didn't even put makeup on and my hair was half wet, but I was in the mood for Photoshopping after and I'm super pleased with the result - probably our best photoshoot yet, totally representing my style and vision. I hope you will enjoy these pics as much as we do.

The emphasis is on accessories in this new look - it's all about statement earrings, short cross-body bags and studded belts! It is sooo easy to transform a casual look constructed with few basic (sophisticatedly basic let's say) items by adding some modern, bold accessories. The best place to find them? One of my favourite online shops - RoseGal. They do have amazing accessories at uber affordable prices so what's not to love? I still have a biiig wish list of things I'm in love with, from vintage style dresses to the coolest sunnies on the block, stay tuned!
