Before I start mumbling on the title subject I want to tell you, the ones who stood in lines in front of the Embassies yesterday just to get your chance to vote, that I am humbled by your determination and acts and that you have our immense gratitude.
Seeing you on tv last night struck a cord in many of us, still living in this country. You could have just played ignorant towards a country that, in many cases, forced you to leave. Instead you got up and fought (went and tried to vote that is – I like dramatic tones).
Your gesture was valued more than you could think. Thank you.





I am wearing an H&M cardigan and Ramona earrings and ring – soon available on AEP

Now, what I wish I knew a few years ago:
- that responsibility is a powerful gesture and a serious thing. And that the lack of it has serious consequences
- that white leather skirts make me look fat and poofy – you never told me, btw…
- that sometimes, no matter what you do, you`ll just be the big, bad bitch
Ok, I have more than 3 things I wish I knew, yes, I was pretty stupid innocent
- I wish I knew how to appreciate spending time with myself and capitalize it better
- I wish I knew that relaxation is the key to productive working and that relaxation has nothing to do with expensive treatments and spas – I was invited to test the new Schlurf – Organic teas from Click n Drink so I took a whole afternoon to myself and got ready with hot water for a dozen teas – yes I like to hydrate intensely, it`s healthy and I`m old, leave me be – my favorites are Schlurf Herb tea, Schlurf Fruit Organic tea and my absolute favorite, Schlurf Rooibos – That, my darlings, proved to be a pretty cozy and relaxing activity. And it happened at home. Yeah, I wish I had discovered sooner that well-being is just a cup of tea away
- I wish I knew that I`ll soon grow up and that peace of mind comes from life experience. And that it will come only with age
- I wish I knew that that expensive bag for which I saved money two months will validate me in the eyes of shallow people but not in my own eyes. I wish I knew that there will come a time when I`ll be so powerful that I will not care about the validation of others
And I wish I knew about Click n Drink earlier – I would have tasted many more delicious drinks that would have surely enriched my moments. It`s the little things ladies, always search and trust the little things. They`ll help you grow into an unstoppable comet.

See you tomorrow with the follow up on my C&A style event. I`ll tell you where to register if you want to come to my next one. We`ll have fun.


I love you ability to create stories!
superb cardigan!
am incercat si eu ceaiurile, aromele sunt deosebite!
I love an afternoon just for myself! A cup of tea and a great book….
Oh, the pampering!
A relaxed body and most of all mind are a bliss!
si eu cred ca lucrurile marunte sunt cele care ne fac viata mai frumoasa! Le ador!
The validation of others really is bulls***t! All you need is selfconfidence to feel great!
Sa incerci Hilde, e preferatul meu! Cred ca o sa ti placa
inspiri calm si serenitate astazi,. foarte frumos
love the photos and I too fancy a good cup of tea. I will definetly give them a try
ceainicul e minunat! another vintage treasure 😉
roibos e si ceaiul meu preferat!
a cup of good tea on an autumn afternoon sounds just perfect! especially in the middle of the week 🙂

sunt o mare consumatoare de ceaiuri si chiar cautam altceva pentru da, pot spune ca le-am incercat pe toate! 🙂 mersi de idee
Drinking tea is so aristo
foarte frumos!

Pulovarul e superb! il am si eu, l-as purta non stop
ceaiul de fructe e delicios! si organic pe deasupra, e foarte bun!
Stiu Click n’Drink de la o prietena, eu am incercat frappeurile. vanilla ruls!
toti suntem inconjurati de oameni superficiali iar parerea lor e, dupa parerea mea, egala cu zero!
an expensive bag is sometimes a good therapy 🙂 you must admit it :))
