Summer On My Mind

Carla Vadan June 13, 2019

With summer round the corner and continuous dreams of warmer days (it's 14 degrees Celsius at the time I am writing these lines), I would love to take you with me on my dream and show you few of my newest summer favourites.

First of them, the swimsuit. A high-waisted, ultra flattering swimsuit is a must for me, and I believe for you as well. I love both the print and design of this one, it's funky and fresh and I can totally see myself sipping a mojito by the sea in the next months, when summer will hopefully be with us.

This gorgie is from dropship-clothes.com, one of the online shopping retailers I've recently discovered. Although their prices are wholesale ones, therefore very low, I must say I am impressed by the quality of all three pieces from them I am about to present to you below.

Next I have this pale yellow off-shoulder dress, made from linen (or so it seems) and which is also lined, which I really love! It fits perfectly and it's both comortable and minimal, like a blank canvas waiting for you to accessorie it with the prettiest sandals and funkiest bags.

Last but not least, is a super pretty white top, with lace-up straps. It's a versatile piece which can be integrated in all summer outfits: wether you go for shorts, a skirt, trousers or jeans...it works perfectly!

Lazy Summer

casual July 31, 2017

The days are hot and the air seems suffocating, yet the light breeze and gentle sun rays touching my skin bring happiness into my soul. My summers are long and lazy, there's no effort required by lifting a book and slowly moving my eyes down the lines or simply dancing under water...it all comes naturally, my mind and body needed an "escape" and a temporary change. The living is easy and the time seems to freeze, moving slowly...as if the days are infinite. I'm taking my time to breathe in some fresh air and just enjoy this perfect summer.

Sweet as a Pineapple

exotic March 15, 2017

Some days the London weather is just awesome. Not awesome enough to wear this outfit though, but a girl can dream. As I said, dreams are free and perfectly legal.

So while I'm waiting for my summer holiday, I'm in the search for perfect swimsuits. One of them (the bra) you can see it here, I absolutely love it! Love this retro-chic meets the Flintstones look and the modern asymmetry of the bra. The knickers are high waisted and also look and feel fab! And no, they're not see-through. The fabric is doubled so don't worry about that.

I might do a post of all my fav swimsuits so you can find more inspiration there! What do you think?

Enjoy the Sun!

Summer Ready With Zaful!

beach June 28, 2016

Hi guys!

Summer is finally making its way through all the clouds and rain, and I can almost say the weather is lovely in London! At least today. I don't expect many degrees Celsius over here, but I am dreaming of hot and lazy summer days spent back home, in Transylvania. That's in Romania, in case you're still wondering. And we're having our holiday there, from July till August.

I miss having my breakfast downtown, under the breezy linden trees, sipping a strawberry lemonade and not having a care in the world! I miss visiting Cojocna (you should definitely google it) with its green, salty water and leafy hills.

I miss the green and quiet forests, the mountains, the hills and the fresh air. I miss my dear Cluj, the place I was born and raised in. I can't wait to visit Transylvania again for the summer. For its mellow mood.

But there was one question: what should I pack? There's Electric Castle and possibly Untold festival (google them) that we're going to, there's the swimming places I love going to - although I don't like getting tanned, I adore swimming - so here are my summer essentials:

swimsuits and a proper bomber jacket. I can even wear a swimsuit with a bomber on top and suits all these occasions. Ok, maybe not the festivals. That would be too much.

Below you'll see the lovely stuff (very affordable too), all from Zaful. They really do provide exceptional value, quality, and superb customer service. And super fast worldwide delivery too. It took less than 4 days for my UK delivery. My items arrived safe and well, delivered straight to my door, each in a sealed plastic bag.

One item that caught my eye was this absolutely fab floral embroidered bomber jacket in a satin finish (see below) which I ordered in a size L (UK 12-14) because I hate tight jackets. A tight jacket looks cheap and awful in most of the cases, but if you buy one in a bigger size (go up one or two sizes) it will always look much cooler, more exquisite and super-fashion. You can find it on the above mentioned website, over here, for £23.25.

The first and my favourite is this gorgeous Crochet Halter Solid Color Bikini Set which can be found on Zaful for just £8.35. What a bargain! It comes in one size and it fits perfectly. For ladies with a more generous chest size, it's probably not the best choice. But don't worry, I got you sorted too.

The second look I would choose for a day by the pool is a printed two-piece with high-waisted, cut-out bottoms and a push-up bra. The print looks exquisite and the bra is well-made. However, I find the bottoms a bit transparent at the back given the fact it's a white swimsuit. You can find this Printed High Waisted Halter Cut Out Bikini Set on the same website, for £12.71.

Last but not least is a must-have! The trend of the moment I might say, even though I am not a huge fan of following the trends. The black swimsuit! A very good quality fabric and lovely braid details on the bra, this must be the go-for piece for everyone. It will optically slim you (in case you want that, who doesn't?) and you know, black always looks perfect. Find this High-Cut Hollow Out Bikini Set on...where else but on Zaful for *hold your breath* just £9.44
