The 20's are roarring in 2013

There are clothes that wear the person....i believe in these clothes, they have personality.
They change you and they are capable to create a different character everytime you wear them.
They inspire you and they have the power to make you look different everytime you put them on.
Therefore this dress wore me last night in the twenties way.
I found it in Paris at a vintage fair...i believe it's a piece of art, it's 100% silk & hand-made sequin embroidery so i waited for the right moment to wear it...it was hard but i had a lot of pacience...in the end The 20's New Year Party was the "lucky winner".

I am guilty for the twenties inspired make-up and Мишгач Олександр (Mishwu) is guilty for the fabulous 20's hairstyle.

Happy New Year with Sweet Paprika darlings,
Kisses,
Gabriela
I was wearing: Silk Sequin De Palma Dress, Vintage clips, Vintage bag, Kotton heels.

Paris Fashion Week . Day 2. Russian Inspiration

On my second day in Paris i decided to wear the Red dress from my new collection and i accessorized it with pure russian vintage - the scarf belonged to my grandmother and the hat is full of USSR medals , i found it in a Bazaar in Chisinau.I also styled the look of my friends.
Ioana was wearing a sweet pastel dress inspired by my fav bug: the dragonfly and Maria is wearing a white 50's inspired dress with a floral print.
That day we went to Dior where we really had a wonderful time and meet a lot of wonderful people, after that i had the surpise to meet a fab. blogger from Bulgaria and i actually practiced a little bit my russian:))and then we met again our only love: The Eiffel Tower and i ended up by singing with Michael Jackson
Love,
Gabriela

Animal Print Fever

“You'll find another.' God! Banish the thought. Why don't you tell me that 'if the girl had been worth having she'd have waited for you'? No, sir, the girl really worth having won't wait for anybody.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise
(thanks to Marina Simona Zanfir for recommending me this amazing book)
After watching VH1 Classics daily i started to get inspired by the 80's fabulous mix between green and animal print. I always considered this a little bit too opulent for me but still i wanted to give it a try. This is the result!
Hope you like it!!
Love,
Gabriela

She's a lady.

Unfortunately , there comes a moment in your life when you feel dissapointed, lost, distroyed, hopeless and empty...then you realise that there's a lady living inside you and no matter what happens you must not let her die, so you start reading Maya Angelou's poems and you understand that " You're a woman, phenomenally" and that "still, like air, you'll Rise"!


"I say,

It's in the reach of my arms

The span of my hips,

The stride of my step,

The curl of my lips.

I'm a woman

Phenomenally."


(Phenomenal Woman- Maya Angelou)


In this look i was wearing an atittude...nothing else matters.


Love,

Backless dress at the Lashez event.

First of all i have to thank Eliza Magureanu for inviting me last week at a wonderful event. A new Lashez store has launched in Vitan Mall, in Bucharest, and i have to tell you that it's HUGE and you can built fantastic outfits with the clothes from the new collection.

Also we got some cute gifts, we were treated with lots of turkish goodies and of course with a little fashion show.

I chose to wear for this event a backless dress i designed, as a top and a dotted skirt, hope you'll get inspired and try to wear more dresses as tops. It's a good trick if you want to create in just a minute a totally new dress.

Also i was wearing: White Donna Lisa Tuci stilletos, Vintage clips , vintage Bag, Gabriela Atanasov backless dress, Dotted grey skirt.

Love,

Gabriela
