If I say that I like Lana Del Rey, it would be an understatement.. I'm addicted! Since her first single 'Born to Die' came out a few years ago, I became obsessed with her music, her style and her beautiful craziness. The flower crown that she wears in that exact video and in a number of magazine photoshoots is another thing I became obsessed with, and obviously I am not the only one, since after that every IT girl at the Coachella festival was wearing a similar one.
I, personally, won't feel comfortable wearing one on a daily basis, but as you know, when I am on holiday I am eager to experiment and always wear pieces that are out of my comfort zone.
I’d been eyeing this blush H&M trench coat since forever. It’s the epitome of feminine
and delicate and I knew if I tried it on, I wouldn’t be able to walk
away without it. And although it’s already so hot in Sofia that you definitely don't need a trench or any other outerwear piece, I'm already excited about the variety of outfits I can create with it when the early autumn arrives. Also, I'm planning on stocking with two more trench coats in the next months - a classic black one and a timeless khaki one.
I have always been a band t-shirts' girl! Since my teenage years when the walls of my room were covered with band posters till today, when I work as a pharmacist. Nothing makes difference more than a Rolling Stones t-shirt, for example, showing from under my white coat when I'm at work. And even though some people would argue with me that this is not a suitable dressing for my kind of work place, I still stand behind my oppinion that this only shows that I'm a professional with quite a personality and there is nothing wrong in that. At the end of the day I have a life outside of my work, haven't I?
A couple of weeks ago my boyfriend and I went to Berkovitsa for a weekend away from the hustle and bustle of Sofia. And even though the forecast said that it was about to snow this weekend, that little fact didn't stop us from our initial plan. We knew it would be cold, but we weren’t expecting the winter wonderland that we woke up to on Sunday morning! It had started snowing the night before, continuing for the next day, creating a white blanket of perfectly fresh snow. We spent most of our trip in a constant rotation of walking out in the
snow and defrosting inside with hot drinks and lots of blankets. Everything was just so calm and bright and we felt like we were living in a real life snow globe - from the frosted
trees to the glittering snow. We really had the most magical time even for a day, since we didn't have much snow this winter.
There’s a chill in the air over here in Bulgaria and it has me wanting to
bring out my warmest sweater, wrap up in a blanket and cuddle with my boyfriend and a hot drink in hand.
I can never seem to have enough knit sweaters or cardigans to be more particular. Every time I walk into a store and see a nice, bohemian stack of cardigans, I immediately dart in that direction.These are my favorite styles and I seem to wear them no matter the season. In the fall I combine them with more weather appropriate clothes, like chunky booties, ripped jeans and of course a wide-brim hat, whereas in the summer time I usually just throw a cardigan of this type over a white linen dress and add a straw hat to complete the bohemian vibe.

There seemed to be a theme in my wardrobe for
this summer: off the shoulder tops and hats. So, obviously, at every possible
opportunity I slip into one of my too many off the shoulder tops, a favorite
pair of skinny jeans and these comfy H&M fringe boots that I simply
adore (previously seen here).
Before our summer holiday in Alexandroupoli
back in June, the weather in Sofia was not very summery.. Luckily, it was warm
enough to take full advantage of it and my off the shoulder obsession. This
H&M flowy top is perfect blouse for the transitioning season (which is
slowly approaching again) with its lightweight fabric, off the shoulder design
and fun print. Not to mention how well it compliments my beige bag and fringe
boots.
I’m a lover of a few prints and stripes are one of them. When in doubt,
just pull some stripes out - that’s my motto! A striped shirt and jeans
are always my go-to laid back pieces, especially when it’s in blue and
white. And when they’re combined into an off the shoulder top…well, that’s just a match made in heaven for me. I already have like five different variations of this top - all five of them are off the shoulder with white/blue stripes.. This particular one is from Zara, I bought it last summer and I guess that you won't be able to find it, but I’ve found a handful similar shirts that I personally really like - this one, this one and this one.
Pink has always been my favorite color and I remember when I was going to school dressed in pink from head to toe and didn't care what anyone would say. But as I grew up and started my first job as a pharmacist I decided that it is time to start dressing more mature. But recently I have found cute pink pieces to add to my wardrobe which are just as elegant and work appropriate for a young girl and didn't hesitate to buy them at all.
This pink ruffled lace top from Zara is my favorite. It’s a dainty lace fabric and has the prettiest ruffles in person, plus it's slightly cropped which is perfect for my height.
Also I have been very into the ballerina trend for the last year and a half and finally decided to incorporate it in my wardrobe as well with these insanely cute blush pink satin balet flats from Zara. And to be completely honest I didn't stopped there.. I bought two more pairs from H&M - again in blush pink and in black but with lace ribbons at the ankle and simply can't wait for an opportunity to wear them.
You know that during the summer I'm really into bohemian clothes and accessories. Two pieces that have been essential for this outfit are: my linen H&M t-shirt & Stradivarius bag (previously seen here). They’re the perfect accessories for any desert dreaming look and beyond. But I did end up putting this gorgeous Balmain inspired olive green blazer from Bershka, that I bought on sale a year ago (again not only in this amazing hunter green colour, but in black colour as well.. A girl will never have enough black blazers, right?), to make this look a little bit more refined and structured.
This Stradivarius fringe beige bag is an old favourite of mine. Even though it rarely ends up here on the blog, it is a piece I wear with all of my boho shirts and dresses and that's a lot. It's spacious, it's beautiful neutral color, not to mention the cute fringes she (because it is definitely a SHE) has, that I'm crazy about.

May was cold. Not freezing, but pretty close. When it’s that cold and
you’re spend a majority of the weekend outside like my boyfriend and I did (not to mention the terrible cold that I recenly caught), the most
important thing is being both warm and comfortable, so I layered up some
of my coziest pieces including this lightweight black cardigan and these very cool fringe boots from H&M, which I have in black and in camel color too. That's how much I love them.
I’ve had a love affair with round sunglasses and leather jackets for years maybe. This particular jacket I bought from Stradivarius two or three years ago even though I wasn't sure at all if this is the right model for my body type. In the end it became a favorite of mine and has been one of my go-tos ever since as I have mentioned several times already.
Having a great leather jacket that looks just as good over a flowy summer dress as it does paired with jeans and a tee is essential in every women’s wardrobe and I love this one and this one, similar to the one I’m wearing here. I also really like this pastel pink one and this one with fringes.
I bought this Stradivarius blazer a few years ago as my first “nice” black blazer purchase. It’s still one of the best pieces I’ve added to
my wardrobe and has been one of my go-tos ever since. I could easily
say that my black blazer and my denim/ leather jackets are the most-worn outerwear
pieces I have. Also, this classic model has
proven to pair with basically everything.
Another thing that I currently love is everything lace! I’d been eyeing the exact lace blouse that I'm wearing in this post from Mohito but in blush colour since I saw the pastel lace is very trendy at the moment. It’s the epitome of feminine
and delicate and I know if I try it on, I won't be able to walk
away without it. It’s definitely a piece that I will wear a lot since it can be combined with nicer accessories for special occasions, while at the same time it
works just as well for everyday with simple blue jeans and a jacket. Besides, it has the sweetest velvet bow, which plays beautifully against the dainty lace.
One of the best perks of where we live is that Greece is just a few hours' drive away. We just need a car and a couple of free days. This year we visited it twice - once in June, when we chose Possidi as our destination, while the second time we ended in Kavala just like the year before that. And even though the weather wasn't at its best this time around we somehow managed to enjoy it to the maximum. I know I probably sound like a broken record, but we simply could live in Kavala for the rest of our lives, that's how much we love it.
One of the greatest things about my hometown is that it's actually right beside the mountains. It literally takes less than ten minutes and you are far from the city noise deep into the calmness of the nature. It can't ever become boring to me or to my boyfriend since we both love the mountains,and besides, there is something so fun about doing more touristy things in your own town. So, on a free weekend last September (You read it correctly.. last September! I just don't know how I managed to forget about these pictures..) my boyfriend and I grabbed some friends (and some food, of course) and jumped into the car to spend a laid back afternoon in the nature. We chose a place, which is known not only for its historical significance, but also with its breathtaking views of the town and the valley below. The landscapes are so strikingly gorgeous, that you simply can't believe they are real.
I finally found some time to share with you one of my favourites this summer.. I'm wearing this outfit quite too much, but I do not care at all! I love it! That's all! The more observant of you may noticed my bag.. What can I say? Yes, you're all right! This is another one of my new bags. And I'm not going to tease you anymore.. The third one is the same, but in black colour. As I said the last time, I'm really into those 70s, more bohemian looks recently. I simply want to live like a gypsy in sunny California for the rest of my life.. However, It's time to go to work. Have a nice day, you guys, and be sure to tell me what do you think about this look?
After catching a couple of colds in the last two weeks and a month of constant rain, the spring finally came to our little country. It's hot and sunny outside and I'm about going to work in a couple of hours but in the meanwhile I decided to share these black and white pictures I shot some time ago. It was still cold and grey outside and I was wearing quite monochrome look, but still one of my favorites. It includes my beloved round glasses, my new combat boots and my gypsy leather backpack! All of this combined with a silk and a lot more elegant shirt with a bow tie. What do you think about it?

Hello, spring! No? It's April and it's snowing..
I'm trying really hard not to be gloomy as the sky outside but it gets harder and harder. Please, spring, hurry up!
Recently I had some days off from work, so my boyfriend and I decided to spend them together since we normally don't have the chance to see each other every day.. It didn't stop raining cats and dogs for the whole four days.. On one of those days we dressed up and refused to stay home all the time. It's a lot different to drink coffee outside for a change.. haha.. So, that's what we did.. We went straight into the closest to home cafe.
