Winter Bloom


Hi, guys! 
I don’t know how many times I have told you that I hate Winter, 
but one thing I know for sure: it was not enough! I hate Winter with all my heart and I’m literally...and I mean L I T E R A L L Y counting down the days till Spring arrives. 
On a much happier note, once again, this season I’m very happy with my sale purchases. 
I was searching for this coat ever since I saw it on the Zara website, but 
there was absolutely no sign of it in stores. But, last weekend, it finally came home with me! It was the last one and it was reduced from 115 € to 35 €. This is what I call a good deal!
 I like it mostly because of its particular cut. Since black is definitely not my color, 
it was very difficult for me to find something that would actually look good on me. 
I needed something different to draw the attention from the black winter coat cliche.
This one is perfect, especially because it’s not that thick, so I can wear it all year round! 
So, this is what I’m wearing today.
 I chose a floral printed skirt so that Spring will realise how much we miss it and kick Winter’s ass out of here. I actually think it works, since the exact moment I stepped out the door, the sun came out. Not a very good thing for my pics, but still...it was a good sign!
Anyway, I hope you’ll have a wonderful weekend! 
Kisses

    Alexandra, cand am iesit azi afara am zis ca gata, a venit primavara! Fata de -20 de grade, la 0 grade eram pe punctul de a iesi imbracata in tricou:)) Nu stiu daca doar mi se pare mie, dar chiar e cald si placut:x Legat de Zara...cel mai des merg in Baneasa pentru ca e chiar langa mine. Mie mi se pare ca Plaza este cel mai bine aprovizionat. Fiind, totusi, flagship store-ul Zara in Romania are(la fel ca si H&M Unirea) cele mai multe piese expuse. Ceilalti au tendinta de a le roti continuu, poate si din lipsa spatiului. Azi le vezi si a doua zi deja sunt in depozite. Iar la reduceri vezi piese pe care in magazin le-ai vazut acum cateva luni. Nu inteleg de ce nu le tin expuse permanent, mai ales daca fac parte din aceeasi colectie.In ceea ce priveste reducerile, Plaza este clar go to! Au cele mai multe chestii, multe masuri si uneori chiar preturi mai mici decat Baneasa (mi s-a intamplat!) In Baneasa am observat ca apar mult mai repede piesele noi si, de obicei, cele mai scumpe. Banuiesc ca e legat de segmentul de clienti.In Afi nu merg pentru ca nu-mi place...e tot timpul aglomerat si lumea pare venita la plimbare, nu la shopping. Foarte multe piese distruse, rupte...De obicei, incerc sa le acopar pe toate la anumite intervale, mai ales cand caut ceva anume

    Alina, daca ceva iti vine bine (ca articol vestimentar) acel "ceva" sunt fustele.
    Ai picioarele foarte frumoase si de aceea nu merita sa le ascunzi.
    Superba fusta!

    Aw, nu pot sa cred ca vad din nou fusta asta. Ce dor mi-a fost de ea! Chiar ma gandeam cand va veni vremea sa o porti, ei bine ai gasit momentul perfect, rezultatul este unul fantastic. De-abia astept si eu sa vina primavara, martisoarele si caldura, in ultimul timp vremea nu ne-a dat chiar foarte multe variante. Chiar daca am fost stresata si lipsita de timp de sesiune am intrat zilnic sa-ti vad postarile,toate diferite si speciale, dar asta m-a marcat, iti sta minunat! In legatura cu ce ai postat mai sus si mie mi-a scazut interesul pentru Afi, parca nu gasesc nimic din ce vad pe net. O sa incerc sa merg mai des in Baneasa. Succes in continuare! Te pup!!! :*

    Buna, Daiana! Sa stii ca si mie mi-a lipsit fusta asta. De cand am luat-o m-am gandit la combinatia asta, dar nu reuseam sa-mi gasesc o jacheta mai lunga, neagra. In ceea ce priveste vremea...ce sa mai zic...m-am saturat! Abia astept sa vina primavara! Multumesc din suflet! Ma bucur mult ca ti-ai facut timp sa ma vizitezi! Sper ca a fost totul bine cu sesiunea! Acum, iti urez o vacanta placuta! Sa te bucuri de zilele libere! Poate ca, totusi, va fi soare si frumos! Te pup
