Starting the new year with a recap of all the favorite outfits that I wore in 2021. Still, another colorful and classic year fashion wise and I’m planning to keep it this way in 2022 as well.

Happy New Year to you and yours and thank you for following along!

We enjoy spending time outdoors by visiting public gardens as well as hanging out in our own garden at home. Here are some shots from one Sunday when we brought the garden set under this lovely floral tree, and enjoyed cold drinks. The floral pitcher & glasses are vintage and lately I purchased a few floral sets like this which can only mean I am planing to spend more time outdoors because this is the season of garden parties & picnics. The beautiful ramie floral dress is from one of my favorite lately discovered brands and you have seen me wearing another piece from them, the one from Caroline's birthday seen Here. So, yes it is a floral celebration all over again!

WEARING:

CAROLINE and NOAH OUTFITS:

PINK SHIRT: Brooks Brothers Here/ SHORTS: Brooks Brothers Here/ CASHMERE SWEATER: Brooks Brothers Here/ 

It was the first time this year enjoying a day at the beach with the kids and they’ve been really excited. It was a sunny but windy day, so we have been on the move continuously and as predicted, we didn’t bring our swimsuits, but rather all of us had matched in casual pink outfits. I gladly accepted Brooks Brothers' invitation to share some Mother’s Day moments & outfits and here are some shots from that day! Happy Mother's Day to all the mamas out there, enjoy your day, you most certainly deserve it!

COAT: Vintage, some new options Here, Here and Here/ SWEATER DRESS: Kinross Cashmere, similar style Here and Here/ BOOTS: Donald Pliner, another great option Here/ BAG: Sparrows Weave (out of stock), other great options Here, Here and Here/ 

First and probably the last look with a sweater dress now when the winter comes at its end, but at least I can mark check ✔️on this category. Sweater dresses are my go-to essential pieces for winter but not this year (it’s a first ). We were covered in snow and hit by low temperatures so I didn’t take many outfits photos this season. Well, I will do it for sure next winter, if I don't have the chance to wear them again these days.

P.S. I don't have photos with Caroline together this time, but I managed to take a few snaps of her sitting on the bench in the conservatory.

WEARING:

CASHMERE PONCHO (in fawn): c/o Santicler Here/ CASHMERE TRIANGLE BANDANA (in fawn): c/o Santicler Here/ BASKET BAG: Vintage, great options Here, Here, Here and Here/ PANTS: J.Crew, options Here, Here and Here/ SHOES: Carlo Pazolini, similar styles Here, Here, Here and Here/ SUNGLASSES: RL, options Here and Here/ 

I crave long walks and greenery surroundings, so with these winter low temperatures it’s only one place to retreat myself even for a few hours. Two weeks ago we enjoyed all these at Longwood Gardens conservatory. We chose to go in the middle of the week to avoid the crowds. Dressed casual, I was ready to spend the day with Caroline, while Noah was at school, wondering around, even getting lost through so many rooms. I was wearing a beautiful cashmere poncho and scarf from a newly discovered knitwear brand santicler.com  ethically manufactured in Romania, where the owner is originally from, and also my birthplace. Definitely happy to support a fellow Romanian with such a timeless and qualitative range of products! I must say that I loved wearing this duo pairing and my appetite for head scarves just increased a lot more...

WEARING:

CASHMERE CLOAK: Linen Naive Here/ DRESS: Vintage, some great modern options Here, Here and Here/ 

Another look taken last fall in the fields wearing this beautiful cashmere yellow cloak from Linen Naive The vintage maxi dress has been showcased here before but I wanted to wear it again, this time against the bold yellow color. It feels ideal for a fairy tale scene, and I felt like it.

WEARING:

DRESS: Custom made, some great options Here, Here and Here/ SHOES: Sarah Flint Here, more similar styles Here and Here/ CASHMERE WRAP: Kinross Cashmere, more styles Here and Here/ 

This great weather is already gone and the yellow leaves are all on the ground. But let’s comeback to one morning when we went to the garden's deck to enjoy a perfect fall day, while Noah was at school. Tea and pumpkin pie while Caroline was playing around, this sums up that few hours under the November's sun. This cotton dress is from last year, another lovely custom made shirt dress that works on every season.

WEARING:

SWEATER: Tyler Boe Here / PANTS: Riva (old), similar options Here, Here, Here and Here/ CLUTCH: Looks Like Summer (old), options Here, Here and Here/ PUMPS: Joe Fresh (few years ago), great options Here, Here and Here/ 

Sweater weather is almost over now! Luckily I had time to enjoy this duo pairing and to style a few outfits in the past month when the weather was really gentle here in Philadelphia. One of these outfits is this lilac - pink & brown color mix! Love these colors together and I love how soft this Tyler Boe cashmere sweater feels. It’s definitely a classic piece to wear in different color combinations in the Seasons ahead!

WEARING:

DRESS: from Amazon Here, more colors available Here and Here and similar options Here and Here/ CASHMERE WRAP: White + Warren, similar style Here and Here/ BASKET: Vintage, options Here and Here/ 

CAROLINE'S WEARING:

LINEN TOPPER: Little Goodall (old) some great options Here and Here, BLOOMERS: from Etsy, options Here and Here/ SHOES: Sold out, options Here and Here/ 

As you can see I’m not done with the picnic sessions and I am pretty sure I will continue doing that in the fall as well! This one was the last from the Summer season (a few weeks ago) on a trail, on this very peaceful spot, not far from the place we took photos in the Summer with the purple flowers (see post Here).

The kids loved it and even more than that, they had a very calm temperament and wanted to take photos, BOTH OF THEM! Well, this has never happened before. Caroline is the one who may want to take photos but Noah is very hard to catch. I wish this is a new stage but I don’t count on that :)

Floral patterns still persist in our outfits because this is our all year long favorite pattern. Voila!

P.S. My dress is a very affordable find and comes in various colours Here.

WEARING:

CASHMERE PONCHO: Talbots Here, more options Here, Here and Here/ SUEDE MOCCASINS: Talbots Here, more colors available Here, Here and Here/ CORDUROY: Talbots Here, more colors available Here and Here/ BAG: Talbots Here, I also love these colors Here and Here

 First time in Philadelphia since March and also a first fall outfit is here!!!! I am excited about playing with a new color pallet and textures this upcoming season and today I’m sharing a sweet combo: rose & blush! This look is part of my partnership with Talbots, where I was asked to styles some key classic pieces from their new collection. I love this color combination and I find it perfect for Early Fall days. The leopard print mini bag is the perfect bitter punch to this sweet color combination and I can see it styled with many colors this Autumn. You are ready to swipe the Summer away and welcome Fall?
