Tuesday Travel Diary - Cozia Monastery

Hello everyone!!! For a couple of days it's been raining non-stop. I don't get along very well with this weather. I really miss the old days when it was sunny and I had more time to shoot pictures. Unfortunately, lately I haven't been able to do so, and this thing is making me sad. Neither the weather nor the time helps me to do what I love most (which is to shoot pictures and post them of course). This is a rough period for me but it's gonna be over, just be patient with me, I'll be back on track soon. 

Until then I'm leaving you with a new travel diary post. It's from a short trip we went on, during the end of the summer, beginning of the autumn. I went for a comfy outfit and I wore a black maxi dress (also seen in this post), paired with a denim shirt, flats and a hat since my hair wasn't on it's best day. Also I wasn't wearing any makeup since this trip was unplanned, and they called me like 10 minutes before we left (okay it may have been a bit more than 10 minutes, but hey it was Sunday and I was in the middle of an episode from a tv series that I was watching - can't remember which though... I'm watching over 20 of them :D crazy I know :d). Anyway, I got to visit a beautiful Monastery, well known in Romania. It's called Cozia Monastery and it has such beautiful scenery surrounding it, that you may actually think you are dreaming. I really love the Monastery's architecture you can google it to see how beautiful it is. I wish I could have gone there with one of my photographer friends and a beautiful gown to shoot pictures ... but ... maybe next summer we'll do it. You can see from the pictures what a marvellous place it is and how it gives you a chilling vibe, I could sit on there near a tree and read a book all day long. The post ends with the picture of a delicious icecream. I've actually posted it on instagram that day. You can see there also the piucture where I'm facing the river. So go check it out here: @sinziananegres

I'll leave you now with the pictures. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. I didn't forget, I have to respond to a tag, maybe Thursday, we'll see if the time allows me to do so. So that's about it for today. I hope you guys like this post. Please let me know what you think about it in the comment section below. I'm looking forward to hear your opinions and suggestions. I wish you all a wonderful week. See you next time. kisses

Friday Inspiration - African Queen/ Sea Goddes - Glamour Italy, July 2015

Hello everyone!!! This is a happy, sunny and warm day. I was happily surprised to see that autumn has given me a pass, and that outside were 29 Celsius degrees. Yaaay!!! I chose for today's inspiration post a beachy editorial because as you all know by now, I love beaches, the sea, the sand, the sun, it's everything perfect. I'm not done with the summer and the beach, not yet , I need another 2 weeks of sun and happiness, or I'll go crazy. I can't accommodate with the autumn just yet. So that's why I chose to post again pictures from the seaside. My love. I know you were probably expecting me to post inspiration from fashion week but, ... there's time to do that too. I'm in a beachy state of mind, dreaming to be there just one more time, before the cold days will be forcing us to wear warmer clothes (not that this didn't happen by now but... there's still hope that a few days will be warm). 

Anyway I'll leave you now to see these beautiful pictures. They are from Glamour Italy July 2015, and the beautiful model is Anna Speckhart. I love all those chunky jewelry inspired by african culture, the swimsuits and the beach of course. Anna is like a Sea Goddes and also like an African Queen in Signe Vilstrup's vision, and the result is incredibly beautiful and eye catching. More details about these pictures are here : http://elite.style/anna-speckhart-by-signe-vilstrup-for-glamour-italia-july-2015/ 

I hope you like these pictures, and find them inspirational. What do you think about them? Aren't they dreamy ? Don't they make you want the summer back ?

I hope you have a wonderful weekend! kisses

Tuesday Travel Diary - Climbing tips - Romanian Mountains, Iezer-Papusa

Hello everyone!!! It's a bit late, actually it's over midnight but, I finally finished sorting through photos, and as I promised you in the previous post, here I am with a new Tuesday Travel Diary. These photos were taken a month ago or not even a month has passed. Anyway it was a family trip, and we were gone for the whole weekend camping on the mountain so I had no cell service (and that's when I stopped posting on instagram so often and until now I haven't managed to get back on track but I'm working on that too ). As I told you, we were camping, so we slept in tents, and that means no electricity either, so I had to manage with just one full battery for almost 3 days (but I did it). It's been hard because I wanted to take pictures everywhere on our way to the top of the mountain but I had to restrain myself. 

We started our journey to the top, from the bottom of the mountain, having to climb through a neverending forest (seriously in looked like it wouldn't end :D ). After that we had in front of us a sea of yellow as you can see in the first picture (my phone didn't capture that awesome colour and I had to edit the pictures, but it isn't the right colour.. it was like a golden field). It seemed no big deal to get up there but, as we walked the distance seemed even longer, but that was because we were walking straight ahead in a burning sun and with few water provisions. Anyway, as we arrived on that peak you see in the picture it started raining. A cold rain followed by a strong cold wind and we waited for it to pass but it rained cats and dogs for a half an hour and we were soaked in water. Even when we thought it couldn't be worse it started to hail on us. We patiently waited for it to be over but we couldn't continue our journey for the highest peak of the mountain so we had to turn around and go to our tents. It was a looong way 'till there and our clothes were wet and the wind was blowing like crazy. Fortunately some of our clothes in our backpacks had managed to stay dry and we quickly changed them and went down on the mountain.

It was an interesting experience. Wasn't my first time climbing a mountain but it was the first time I was caught by rain and had to endure it without a roof over my head. It got me unprepared but it taught me a lesson: "Always be prepared for anything!", so next time I'll be properly prepared. So at the end of this experience I can sum up some useful tips from when you will go camping and climbing, based on my experience:

- Pack warm clothes because there's a big temperature difference

- Be sure that you have waterproof clothing with you when climbing. the weather is unpredictable

- Wear climbing boots, it's important for your foot to have as much stability as you can provide

- It's important to stay hydrated so take as much water as you can carry with you

- Pack some snack, you're gonna get hungry

- Take chocolates with you for energy

- Use a climbing stick, It's gonna take some of the weight off of your shoulders  

- Everything in your climbing backpack has to be packed in plastic bags

White skirt and animal print - OOTD

Hello everyone!!! A lot has happened in the last month and my schedule isn't that free anymore... I have to manage my time between work, family, friends, photoshoots and blogging ( and currently I'm a mess, but I'm keeping a positive attitude hoping that I will manage to do it better, I just need to focus more on what's important to me ). On the bright side I just received the photos from Martin Andrei. I've been waiting for them for a month if not more, but I get it, wedding season is here and he has a lot of events. And on top of that Andrei has moved to Bucharest... (I'm happy for him but sad for me :)) but everything is gonna be alright). I'll have to adjust to this new schedule, so that's why I'm writing at this hour in the night :D.

So, as I told you before, these photos were taken a month ago, when outside the weather was unbearable, so hot you could barely breathe (or so it seemed that time :D ). I still missed those days when the rain came with 16 Celsius degrees but I should stop talking about this. I chose that day an easy outfit, and tried to keep it as white as possible. I love this white skirt; it's comfortable and simple yet it has a sophisticated touch. At first I wanted to create an all white outfit with a sheer shirt with long sleeves, but it was too hot outside so I decided to go for a more comfortable  piece, such as this wonderful ruffled tank top in black and white animal print. I think it was a good decision to not wear the white sheer shirt. The golden zippers from the skirt and the buckle from my platforms made me choose gold once again in matter of accessories ( not that I would have chosen anything else :D ). Thank you very much Martin Andrei for these beautiful pictures.

White maxi skirt and flower print top - OOTD

Hello everyone!!! How have you been? I hope you are fine and didn't forget about me. I know it's been long since the last time I posted something, but it's been a crazy couple of weeks with new and interesting projects, that require a lot of time and attention. I got a couple of free days and now I'm at the seaside having some fun.

For today's post I chose to show you a preview of a shooting I did a month ago in Bucharest in one of those beautiful parks I love so much. The photographer is another friend of mine. His name is Elvis and he is really talented. Unfortunately he hadn't time to edit all the pictures but hopefully I'll be able to show them to you soon. We chose to shoot a dreamy look, with a girlish touch, so I thought white and flower print would be perfect. I opted for a maxi sheer skirt from H&M and a flower print top from Zara. I wanted to wear heels to look a bit more tall but I forgot them in the car and we would have lost the sunlight if we returned to pick them up. Even so I think these pictures are amazing. Thank you Elvis for putting up with me and for these wonderful pictures. I\m looking forward to see the rest of the pictures.
