How
did you get the idea to create your blog?
|
I first started the blog, so I could promote my handmade
creations and then, slowly it turned into my fashionistic
diary, as I wanted to share my passion for fashion with
others as well. It’s apparently a blog about what
I love to wear, about places I adore, but for those who
are willing to read thru the lines, there’s also
a part of who I am, past the passion for fashion, revealed
there.

How
would you describe your style?
|
I would definitely
describe my style as a mix of everything that’s out
there and the best “mirror” for who I am, sometimes
I am a funny, girlie girl who loves tulle and pink, the
other day I would be the 50’s style lady, on the next
the modern office gal or even go for a rocky grunge look.
My clothes are my mood indicator for sure :) |

|
What other blog, if you
have one, inspires you in a special way and would you
recommend? Besides LOOK 10 of course.
|
There are plenty
of good blogs out there, impossible to keep track of all.
I of course love the really famous ones like the Chicmuse
or the Sartorialist, but I also adore to get inspired by local
Romanian blogs, that become better and better every day: my
faves are Fashezine (by Ioana Liliana Gheorghe), Absolutely
Fabulous -Fabulous Muses (by
Alina Tanasa and Diana Enciu) and Thrill of the Heel (by Andreea
Balaban) |

Who or what has been your greatest
fashion inspiration and do you feel influenced by the
trends?
|
I for one do not
like to fully follow trends. I observe, I absorb, I combine
& implement my own interpretation of trends, that would
usually be a mix of at least two different styles. I love
to go for vintage & modern, cheap & expensive, kitsch
& elegant, girlie & lady together in order to get
a new, original look & style, that does not
look like just copy & pasting a window display outfit.
In terms of greatest fashion inspiration…hmm…my
mom has always been an icon for me, she has inspired me a
lot, especially in regards to my 60s and 70s combinations.
Apart from her, my big inspiration is the Street, at
home or while travelling, I love to soak up the street catwalk
vibes and get inspired by what I see walking by. |

Do you think fashion blogs might
influence big brands and of course designers and creators?
|
For sure, blogs
are already an extremely strong influence factor on the
fashion industry and looking forward I can only see them
expanding and developing their power even more, blogs will
one day rule the fashion world completely :) |

|
How do you value the fashion market
in your country? Do you think it's on an international
level?
|
Romanians are
all crazy about fashion, especially women love to dress
up and be super styled, so walking the Bucharest (capital)
streets for example is for sure a feast for the eyes. Some
do it better than others, some confuse “styled”
or “sexy” with “almost naked” or
“as slutty as it gets”, but in any case Romanians
do try to
look their best and care a whole lot about their image once
they leave the house. Trends are absorbed almost instantly,
while the Romanian Fashion has changed dramatically over
the past years, looking on the streets, especially due to
cheaper trendy brands like H&M, Inditex
Group or Mango making nice clothes accessible for all. There
are also more and more young Romanian designers who managed
to even break thru at international level (Maria Lucia Hohan
for example). Is Romania at international level? Maybe not
in terms of overall
spending, but for sure in terms of trends!

Are you now with any project in
hands that can lead you to where you want to be in the
fashion world?
|
A project on my
hands not yet, BUT a big dream in my mind which will hopefully
turn into reality in the next 1-2 years: it’s going
to be related to fashion at a small scale and that’s
all I am ready to give away right now :) Fingers crossed :) |
|
|
Finally, would you like to add
anything else or what’s the one question you wish
people asked you but you’ve never had the opportunity
to answer?
|
Fashion is almost
like a drug, it’s passion, it’s art, it’s
beauty, it’s playing around with statements about
how we want to appear on the outside :), live would be so
dull without style, but nevertheless I would insist on not
ever forgetting who we really are, regardless of what we
wear and how, not ever forgetting about what really matters
in
life…Clothes & accessories are fun and nice to
have, but at the end of the day, they are just things and
they should not matter more than things! Wear your clothes,
don’t let them wear you! |
