Don't put your shoes on and prepare to dance on my grave people, I'm not suicidal, yet.

I know that you are wondering what's with the bandage on my wrist, don't you?
Ha! See? I told you I'm smart!  Ok, maybe not that smart, only a good jobber.

Although it may appear this way, the answer is  no, I did not fell on ice.  The event  happened at home, while I was getting down from my bed, in a certain indecent situation, while I...okkkkkk, my  ten years old nephew is reading this blog, let's stop with the details!


And now, for the decadent and not so serious part of the play, me as a neurotic and despotic character.



By the way, if you look beside me you can see my latest home decoration acquisition  -  Valeria Moldovan for 109 pillows.

You know that I don't post pictures with the clothes I buy because I consider posts like "New In" or "I bought this or that"  bragging  but now we're talking about  home deco objects and Valeria  is a chic and creative character whom I admire immensely.

For those of you who haven't heard of her, Valeria Moldovan is a famous Romanian illustrator. Since I was a kid I was mesmerized by her sketches, so now, when I lay beside these pillows, I feel like I'm a character in one of her wise portrayed stories.


 Ioana, please receive my infinite gratitude for gifting me that necklace. It's my absolute and instant love and I will treasure it till the end of days. For this, I will also be your personal maid, till the end of days.

Whaaaaaatttt's with the snow???????
My Goooooddd!!!

I spent my day in rubber boots, looking like a cracked midget!
But let's move on with our daily dose of senseless shit stuff.

People, this is one of those days when I need to brag! Stay calm, take a xanax and bare with me.

And now, with you guys knowing this highly important things, my ego is pampered for the day, and you all can go back to your life feeling better about yourself. Why you should feel better about yourself? Because vanity is a fucked-up curse. (I'm mentally ill if I like it? Yes, Ana, you are! You idiot!)

If you've got the impression you have seen this outfit before, you're probably right.
Also, don't forget about the Moja.ro dress you can win.


Goodbye now.

Keep calm people! This is not a cheesy post about friendship.
And although I may sound cynical, I'm really not.

I think if someone would ask Adina to describe me she would probably use the phrase from the post title. My life experience has taught me that people come into your life, stay a while and maybe at one point they leave. And it's nothing wrong with that. It's called evolution. And maybe you do not evolve in the same direction as some of your friends. Growing apart is as normal as growing together.

The minute you'll stop expecting and live in the moment you'll be free.


"The best friend" - what's that? Did you ever think about how much this label limits you? I think it's very important to have many people around you, as diverse as they can be, cause your ability to learn and absorb information multiplies immensely.

Adina and me, we're not "best friends", we were partners long before we became friends, we're not constantly together and we don't go out with the same crowds. We respect each others freedom and individuality. That's why when we meet, it's always a little party, yes, we laugh, yes, we bitch about everyone else (like we all do), yes, we act snobbishly without reason (no, my father is not a Lord) and at the end of the day, we return to our lives, smiling and tasting what a real and honest friendship should be. 

 It took me a lot of time but I'm very proud of myself  for being able to think this way, I don't own the philosopher's stone, chill.

To all of you who were my friends and are not anymore...Thank you! For entering my life and also for leaving it.

Yep, there's a new breed of kids around.
They are different indeed and I've noticed that everybody who meets one of their kind gets instantly mesmerized.


What makes them different?

- they use Facebook  not for showing of what they eat or how they dress but to share books they've read, movies they saw or modern art exhibits they visited.  They also don't check in from five to five minutes (I had to point this out, burn me)

- they are very passionate and informed on subjects such as modern art, fashion, travels and literature.

- they are always ahead of trends and when those trends became mainstream they don't give up on them just because they became so.

- they love the underground scene but don't trash the commercial one.

- they have a certain self-confidence, a cool, laid-back attitude.

- they don't label people easily.

But the most important characteristic of these new kind of  young adults  is by far, their common sense and  the respect they have for the people around them.  


It takes a lot of maturity and wisdom to acknowledge that you're not the center of the universe.
God knows I don't posses that  much...

 I put up 10 basic looks for  Fashion and Beauty's "10 Inspirational Looks" column.

Yes people, for you to see the outfits, it's exactly the reason why I'm not wearing a coat. Yes, I know it's winter, yes, I have frozen to death. So, no "but didn't you got iced there?" comments needed (vague smile).

You can see a few of them here.





 Well, since it was  my birthday, yesterday and the day before (half of my family says I was born on 18 and at the hospital, they accidentally put 19 on my birth certificate, the other half says that this half  is crazy, you don't wanna know!).

I'm turning 27 (still no bit of wisdom, God help as all)  and I said to myself  "Let's make someone else a gift this time". After all, you guys are the one who have to put up with my endless, daily stupidity. The reason why your number, the ones who read this online serial-story column, is getting bigger and bigger as days go by will remain a mystery to me.

Anyways, Moja.ro sent a marvelous Irina Constantin dress for you.

Here it is...tadaaa




Do you want it or not?

And because with me nothing goes smoothly and also because I don't want you to slap me on the face when you see me on the street, accusing me of favoritism, we have to make it a giveaway.

Here's what you have to do:

- LIKE Moja Concept Store on Facebook

- Follow High Street Cardigans with Google Friend Connect

- Browse Moja.ro, find a fav item, then post it on Moja's Facebook Page or on your blog

- Make sure to leave a comment on this post so that we can have your contacts(specify an email address, kittens)

You have two weeks and the winner will be sort of randomly. Fingers crossed!


Why do people celebrate the fact that we grow older is a mystery to me! (mystery being the word of the day, got it?)
The fact that I have to buy anti-aging potions from now on makes me feel...to use a proper way of speaking...not happy! Not happy at all, people!

So that you know, I'm perfectly aware of the fact that my post titles have nothing to do with the topics. I'm dysfunctional.




.

There's a silent war around here and personally, it kinda bores me.
Perfecte.ro  relates.


Bluntly and without gloves, from both sides, here it goes:




.

Internet helps the uninspired!

I'm dark, it's Monday, nature takes its course.
I have a surprise for you tomorrow!





.

I accidentally locked myself inside, yesterday. In the most stupidest manner.


I'm ok, the locksman will come in no time. Thank God for founding this tiara, now I can pretend that I'm a broken princess and everything will be okkk.


He said that he will be here in an hour(the locksman that is). Two have passed! There's something fishy about this guy! (I'm a Miss Marple fan)


After 5 hours you start to stupidly smile out of no reason and dream of xanax.


Why is this happening to me?!? Is it because I'm a huge procrastinator? The universe is punishing me?


After 8 hours, no laptop battery and a dysfunction to the wireless lan (thank you Delia for forgetting your stick at my place! Some accidents are for the best, except when your key falls from your hand out of the window and you are locked inside!)



I couldn't bare the pressure anymore!
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the lady like-est of them all?
Well, not you, you little depraved person!

Please appreciate my fur collar, gracefully worn with my home clothes!



Yes, I'm out today! How I did it? You will never know!
I'm kidding, he did came, (the locksman that is-2), after 8 hours and 36 minutes, to be exact.

So that you know, the pics are black and white for you not to see that I own a pink laptop (I feel the urge to slap myself when I think about it). And if you still wonder how I took the pics if I was locked inside alone, well, I have a remote for my camera (thank you Silve!!!)




.

Some people raise plants, practice a sport, knit or collect stamps. But that's not what we like to do as a hobby. Ohh nooo, we are "special", we're the modern individuals, the perfect breed of an image focused society, that's why we loooove to freeze out in the cold taking pics.

Well, we shot these ones for an upcoming, little surprise of which I cannot speak about, yet. Yes, I'm trying to be mysterious!

Goodbye now! I have to run and buy some Coldrex. Knitting suddenly started to sound very appealing.



.

If you thought at this you might consider yourself a little intuitive or an every day visitor (if so, you deserve my infinite gratitude, I mean it) So yes, I have a black outfits period. Leave me alone.

 I have mails and comments about The amazing/awesome/astonishing Diet!

Well, let's see. It's kind of easy, basically you stop eating! Anything!

Seriously now (don't relax, you still can't eat! Anything!).

What I did and still have to do is a 41 days cleansing program based on liquids,especially vegetable juices, more specific, beetroot juice. It's sick and I couldn't do it so on my fourth day I included all sorts of vegetable juices and soups. Ofc you have to drink lots of water between meals (that consists in flavored water=soups or vegetable juices, as being pointed above).

You have to take a multivitamin pill every morning.

The effect : I feel the urge to kill people on the street and I smoke 2 packs of cigarettes/day (habit that will remain a memory starting next week) but I also have cleaner skin, I feel energized, light,calm and ofc thinner.

I'm only on my 23 rd  day. I stopped during the holidays, predictable, I know.

Now, before you run to the fridge and throw all your food away, you should know that before doing this I consulted a nutritionist and this cleansing diet was made after my own body analysis and it may not do you good or work for you.

Closing word:   It's hard like hell! (please hear my not joking voice when you read this) And if you start doing this driven by the loosing weight factor please think twice.

I forgot to tell you another aspect, I'll tell you tomorrow, now I have to count cheeseburgers instead of sheep and try to sleep.
