Funky school look (Firmoo glasses)

En: We all agree that the right accessories can make a whole outfit come back to life, even those items that you were thinking to give away to goodwill. Alinutsa decided today to bring off a pair of glasses that at first sight you'd think they are used for a better vision, actually they are just a funky accessory. If you are still going to school or college this item can definitely make your boring uniform look cooler.

Make your working days brighter and sunnier

En: Today I come with the idea of a stunning color blocking business casual mix, because I want my working days to be brighter and sunnier just like the weekends. I got the yellow blazer in March but because in Texas we don't have much transition from winter to spring it's more of a winter - summer right-away, I didn't get to wear it a lot. Instead we have a long enough transition from summer to autumn, so I think this fall I'll get to wear yellow a lot.

Oktoberfest in Dallas

En: A beautiful Saturday evening with friends, kebab and good beer. I know I was saying yesterday I'd get German sausages, but I guess in my case the Mediterranean taste is better formed. It's my first Oktoberfest ever, never been to any before, saw it just on TV or internet so due to that I expected to see a lot of women wearing the  traditional German/Austrian dirndl and guys in lederhosen,  at all I've seen probably like 3 each, maybe there were more than that, but overall Texans missed this aspect of the fest,  I guess with more practice in a few years we'll see the full park wearing them, in the meanwhile the main interest is the imported beer and outdoor fun (personally I promise next year I'll dress a dirndl).

Shopping list for tomorrow!

En: OMG this polyvore is fantastic, don't laugh, I am a bit slow and I discovered it just now. Thanks to Alina Ceusan, one of my favorite bloggers who recommended it to me. Considering that I am so bad with editing programs it seemed like discovering America for the 2nd time. And now I am all into it like a kid into his first electronic toy.

Some other ideas

 En: Today we continue with other beautiful photos from Saturday, were Lalo tried to make a portrait of Alinka @ Annie Leibovitz style, for a work he had to present at school. I did not study previously the work of this lady, so I cannot pronounce on the result.

Happiness is my second name

En: A pet can really make a picture brighter, it brings smiles, licks faces, a total joy. It was a beautiful Saturday with dear people that resulted in a beautiful pics. More to come with the actual photo shoot with Alinka. Going back to the dog I was telling you she felt in love with it, myself I am a fan of cats.

Hobbies, passions and September

En: My Alinka is becoming a model and Lalo a master photographer. Yesterday we went to take pictures for a work that Lalo has to present at school and Alinka posed for it. With more details about it I'll come next week when we'll have the full result. Today we'll mention the location the shooting took place at, a beautiful home with huge windows, nicely decorated and arranged. Everything seemed to be perfect in that house, just like in a magazine.

The IT bags of the season

En: The stores have already displayed their new collections and propose a huge variety of bags. In my opinion there are a few that are worth to be seen and displayed in our closet. The bag it is a very important accessory that us girls tend to buy a lot. But I guess in every girl's wardrobe there is that IT bag that seems to work out with every outfit at any time and deserves an investment for its quality, originality and comfort (below you can see the bag that I decided to invest in this fall). Personally I have a weakness for these accessories and every time I get into a store I'd look for one, even though I have at home enough to fit any outfit, but you know how we women are: it's never enough.

Below I have selected a few pictures with the models I believe stand out the most this fall. From the beginning I decided to classify them by price, as I realize this is an important factor that influences our purchase decision.

Ri vs Mi fall hairstyle trends

En: Let's talk today about haircuts. It seems this fall besides army print and leather, the short hairstyle is trendy as well. Otherwise how shall we explain the recent appearances of the 2 of most popular singers of our generation - Rihanna and Miley Cyrus.

Sunday brunch outfit

En: Happy that the temperatures in Dallas went below 30 on Celsius, I took out of the closet a pair of boots. In a hurry to meet Alinka for brunch I grabbed this light black dress and it seemed too easy to just wear it with sandals and I thought I should complete the look with boots.

Dallas Fashion Night Out

En: Michael Kors said the new years eve for a fashionista is not 1st January it's September. This week is all about fashion, shows, catwalks, impressive appearances of celebrities or street stylers. And because I cannot go to New York or Paris I wanted to see what Dallas has to offer regarding this aspect, there must be a reason why they call it 'the New York of the South'.

Ethereal is the word of the day!

En: I wanted to write this article for a long time, basically since my last trip in Moldova in April, when my friend Lucia got married. It's then when I found myself in front of a big dilemma - what to wear for her wedding. As the Made of Honor I wanted to have something special. It's then when I discovered these beautiful creations made by a talented old acquaintance  of mine Diana Brabur.  

'First day of school shoes!'

En: The first day of the fall caught me pretty nostalgic. It seems I miss school, in Moldova 1st of September it's the first day of school.  It used to be an important day for me back in the days, after a 3 months vacation I was anxious to get back to classes, because I wanted to see my colleagues and then because it was shopping time: a new satchel, new supplies and of course a new outfit to wear for the big day - the first day of school that scholar year.
