Fun times in Moldova!

If there is something I love a lot about my city Chisinau, is the night life.
Well, I should begin with the fact that in the capital-city there are more bars, lounges and clubs than all schools, kinder-gardens, universities, hospitals, police units, etc. added together across the whole country. This is not a fact to be proud of, for us as nation, but still it is a thing that we young people take advantage of when it comes to have fun.
So on each of my short trips to Moldova I try new places.  One of the places me and my friends checked last week was a karaoke bar, that was recommended that day by my Facebook friend and fashion blogger Gabi, that happened to organize the same evening a fun party with good music and sweet cocktails. We had a good time, between the karaoke singers we discovered a Fergie and a white Snap de Moldova. At the end of the night when being approached by the energetic host who was sharing her personally made cocktails, asking suggestions on how shall we name the cocktail, I was nicely surprised to know she agreed on naming it Peach Punch, just like my blog.
Now I am looking forward to finding a nice karaoke place in Dallas, my american friends are welcome to come up with suggestions and ideas.
Xo xo, Dia.

The Wedding Outfits

Sorry, sorry, sorry! I know I was promising this post since Sunday. I just did not have enough time, Sunday I visited my grandpas, met again my girls for a pre-departure cocktail rendez-vous, prepared my luggages and early Monday morning I flew back to Dallas.
Below you can see a few shots of the outfits me and the girls wore at the wedding of one our best friends Lucia. The theme of the event was mauve, so me as a maid of honor I wore mauve too. 
Besides the outfits, the wedding was fantastic, we had fun, danced a lot, and cheered for the happiness of the newly weds! Have a great week everyone, the vacation is over for me, I have to run for work now!
I was wearing a custom made dress
Irina was wearing also a custom made dress
 
And finally not the last but at the end 'just like the bridal cake' our gorgeous bride! She was wearing a beautiful Vera Wang dress.
P.S: Special thanks to Victor for the pics!

Casual & Chic little princess

After the Middle-East I flew to my homeland Moldova, to visit my family, friends and to attend my BFF's wedding. So I am enjoying time with my homies, but the most of it I do it with my gorgeous sister. This post is dedicated to her. Her little princess spirit comes out naturally, but the outfit of this post accentuates it more. She had the idea of this skirt long time ago, as she couldn't find it in the stores, she decided to do it custom made. As the actual trends tell us we can match chic with casual, we combined the white, flawless skirt with a denim shirt, I think the result is pretty impressive and inspiring. You decide and have a great weekend everyone. 
Kisses!
She was wearing:
Forever 21 denim shirt
Custom made skirt

Dubai (last part)

As you probably saw on Facebook, I have uploaded a few pics from the past 2 days as teasers, well this doesn't sound modest at all, but it was more convenient to upload from the phone as I didn't have time at all to open my computer.
Friday and Saturday were the most exciting days of my trip, the first day I took a sightseeing tour of the city, for the first time I saw a mosques, an authentic middle eastern bazaar, the Dubai creek and museum, and mainly how life in desert looks from the perspective of a local. Later at night I checked the panorama from the top of Burj-Khlaifa and then I went with the girls for an original shish-ah.
The next day I tried the wild Safari. From my perspective this is the best part of Dubai, .

Oh, oh trouble!
Ah, adrenaline for a whole month ahead!
 I din't try to ride the camels, I thought the poor animals were too exhausted.
Dinner was delicious!
The girls painted their backs, it came out nice for a 1 minute job!

The journey continues in Dubai

The Dubai journey continues. I wish I could posted more often, but really there was no time for this, during the day I was working, the evening I was trying to catch up with the city as much as possible. But the weekend begins today, as UAE is a muslim country, Friday is a holiday in here, a day they take to pray and rest. So two more full days left for sightseeing and experiencing.
So far, I have checked the biggest mall in the world, the record-setting choreographed fountain, the Armani Prive Pub, the Dubai Marina zone, and as for my work the Jebel Ali free zone and the port. Still more things to see.
If you'd ask me the impressions about the city, my answer would be average, it is not something that I would choose to come back for vacation, as beach I believe there are many other nicer destinations. Still, as my first visit in an Arabic country, it was nice to see their traditions and habits, like the dance in the picture below, the way they pray 5 times a day, their regulations, besides the high scrappers I liked the authentic architecture taken like from the fairytales with Aladdin :)), but still looking forward to seeing more like the Wild Safari.
'Till the next post my dears.
Yachts, good, very good!
