Classic Never Falls Out of Fashion

Couple in Central Park 

Sometimes we think how do people manage to stay young? It's not only about plastic surgery or items they use that help them deal with the burden of years passing by. Some people manage to stay young no matter the way they look, as they age. 

We found this couple holding hands in the park, enjoying one lovely summer day and we couldn't just pass by without taking a picture of them. The b&w effect might seem overrated but this is how we saw them - classy and romantic, with a vintage twist. 

Coral Summer

Student, 16 

We were glad to see a splash of color when strolling a hot summer afternoon. This girl has a passion for coral colors, and says she likes to wear colorful clothes during the summer, that make her stand out from the crowd. The flower accessory in her hair made the outfit perfect for a chic - relaxed summer night.

And yes we are back to keep you updated with the latest outfits to be found on the streets of Chisinau. Yay!

Spring, Flowers and Birthdays

Happy Spring dear readers!

We are back and we are ready to keep it up with the blog. These photos were taken on a sunny, beautiful day and we have decided to include the flowers in all of them just to emphasize the beauty of spring and style of course.

Elena, 24

Elena has a great taste in mixing colors, textures and shapes. Having traveled to Africa and Middle East- she can impress with her effortless ability in choosing accessories that remind me somehow of the countries she has traveled to.

Amazing Adventures Ahead

Dear friends,

May this year bring you great moments and new beginnings. The good news is that Santa was generous with us this year and brought us inspiration for new posts that we will definitely share with your guys!

Amazing adventures await for us in 2012! Let the fun begin!

At Dusk

Dorin and Maria

We met Dorin and Maria while strolling the streets of Chisinau at dusk. We loved their style and they somehow matched so well that we've decided to take a picture of both of them. 

Maria said that her lovely dress was skilfully tailored by her mom and that she is one of the persons that inspires her most of all. 

Stripe Mania

Cristian, 19


"I find myself a romantic person. I'm a terrible tumblr-ist and a vintage style lover, these are actually my favourite sources of inspiration." Cristian also loves photography, and from time to time likes to take pictures himself, he told us, adding proudly he has a blog "of love and with love".

Go Delicate

And here we go again, in the summery Chisinau, bathed in hot weather and cool evening breezes. We can say this city has changed a little a bit from the last summer, but that would be only a humble finding of our own, after missing it for far too many months.
Anyway, we are so glad we are back, and we would be so much more glad to have the time for taking strolls around city center, looking for beautiful people with inspiring style. Somehow, we decide to do it, because it is so worth it.

Cristina, 17

It's the same way we found this little nice lady, strolling lazily before twilight and took some pictures of her in the to be seen above romantic sunlight.

Pretty Baby Blue

"My mood usually determines my outfit. The weather usually determines my mood. I love colours. I love blue."

Oh Well, The Devil Makes Us Sin

Ion, 22
How would you describe your style?
"I don't really feel like I'm having a certain style. I mean I don't have a set of rules for dressing up. I would say it's definitely anti-glamourous.
Rock'n'roll is my motto for everything I do, including my way of dressing"

Beauty's Got a Hold on Me

Sanda, 19, student

"I like to play with colours and I choose those depending on my mood. And my mood can be influenced by a lot of simple things like, for example, the fact that I had coffee and chocolate for breakfast."

Flower power

 Veronica, 20 - studying journalism


Veronica loves to dress up nicely for special occasions and as you can see she's a fan of accessories - which OFCOURSE are some of the most important features of a nice look. As today is almost Halloween she's made this cute braid  and thinks it would go perfectly with the outfit she's going to wear tonight. She said she has mastered the making of flowers just like the one she has in her scarf - how cool is that? Her style is inspired mostly from Hollywood and it was actually the first person that told that to us.

Happy Halloween everybody!! Eat, drink and be scary!:>

Red is for Heart

Impressions.

Oh, I finally get to write about the Malldova Fashion Show. Not so much writing though, I'd better let you see some pictures.

The evening was presented and guided by Nata Albot, a local journalist, who appeared in a fabulous Ted Lapidus blue dress.



When the show began, I had to remind myself it was just a show organized by a shopping center, whose purpose was to showcase own collections of their own brand shops, in order to attract more clients. Nothing more.
Still, I found some great combinations I'd like to share. There we go, the highlights:



Nata Albot interviewing Rodica Ciorănică ( director of a local fashion and society magazine).
See faces, see shoes.





Shoes I liked the most.





And the dresses that made the evening.

Ice, Ice Baby.

Fall hit us totally unexpected and Chisinau is freezing like hell these weeks. The people, I mean (buildings and streets can't really freeze like hell).
So, they say fall is a great season for defining and re-defining your style because its weather offers a good deal of options regarding colors, shapes, shoes, even clothes (you're not gonna wear the trench coat in summer, nor in winter). BUT, apparently Chisinau inhabitants aren't really inspired by fall and its rainy-cloudy-depressing weather (ehm, maybe it's just me?). No, can't be just me, 'cause when i took my photographer to a walk to spot stylish and inspirational people, all I could see were just hurried and sleepy faces, dark and morbid outfits, like the ones you have when you are really don't care where you're going.
This is why our faces suddenly lit up when we saw Adriana.

Adriana, 17
She is doing painting classes and would like to major in fashion design. Most of her clothes- weird findings in her/her moms wardrobe and second hand stuff.

I Do It My Own Way

Daria, 21

I tried my best to get anything out her considering inspirations in clothing and expressing through style, but she could only tell me that she had cake for breakfast and that the last book she read was "Hocus Pocus" by Kurt Vonnegut.
The dreads have nothing in common with a culture, music trend whatsoever, it is just a childhood dream of hers. I personally loved the worn out jeans and shoes, the airy shirt, the original accesories and the joyous, youthful attitude.

Colorici.

Xenia, 16

Xenia told us she is now in the "vintage mood". "I can change my style easily, it all depends on the mood. I like to wear things that have a history behind, for example, my shoes (in the pictures above) are my mom's and she's had them since she was my age. So, I love mixing old (history-behind) stuff with new clothes and create a harmonious outfit with a twist. Also, I always personalize my outfit with pieces of my own handmade collections of accessories. Its very nice to wear things that you created on your own, that you put heart and soul in."

Grungy

Katya, 23
"I mostly wear down-to-earth colours and dark tones. My first rule when choosing clothes- everything must be comfy."

Scandinavian

Sasha

We caught Sasha on her way to take some photos from printing. I was amazed by her deliberate and effortless way of walking, just like that, in a boyish T shirt downtown, where youth usually looks edgy and fashionable. She told us she just got off the bed and had no certain idea of what clothes she should take for a two blocks walk. Reminded me of simple and pretty scandinavian touches.

Saşa mergea pe strada Puşchin înspre Casa Presei, ca să-şi ia nişte fotografii de la imprimare. Mi s-a părut adorabilă intenţia ei neintenţionată de a se îmbrăca atât de simplu şi drăguţ pentru o plimbare de două cartiere. A rămas uimită când am oprit-o pentru a-i lua o poză, zicând că a îmbrăcat primele lucruri pe care le găsise prin garderobă, fiind zăpăcită după un somn lung, diurn.
Mi-a amintit de stiluri nordice, minimalismul, simpleţea şi fineţea cărora sunt mai rar văzute pe străzile Chişinăului.

Everything.. But the Glasses!

"My friends are my inspirations. I also listen to punk-rock music, if that says anything about my style.."
