One-piece swimsuit or bikinis?

I am so super excited about today’s post, because while normally I write about clothes – today it’s about swimsuits. As you know, I travelled to the Black sea in Bulgaria and one of my favorite parts of getting ready for the trip is picking out the beach attires. It is hard for me to find a swimsuit I like because honestly I am not a bikinis fan – I usually wear tankinis or one-piece. Over the years, I’ve found that if I look in the right places and pick the right brands, I can find swimsuits that can really make me feel self confident and pretty.

It’s really comfortable and while I am not so eager to lay on the beach, for swimming it’s perfect .

Moreover this year the one-piece swimsuits have somehow become a fashion trend. It’s so super hard to find one-pieces that are both modest while still sexy and make you look young. So I have hunted down my faves and am sharing them all with you in this and the articles to come!

What about you, are you more for bikinis or for one-piece? No matter what kind you’ll choose, think about how you feel better and match it in a fashionway.

Vegetables or fruits motives for your summer outfits

Summer is a time for relaxing holidays and for long evenings spent with friends and family. It is a time to gather energy and warmth from the sun and for me there is no better way to do that than by the pool or at the beach. This year I am in Bulgaria in the wonderful St. Vlas resort – it is a holiday town located in the southern foothills of the Stara Planina Mountain, very near to the Black Sea coast. St. Vlas occupies the north part of Nessebar bay, only 10 km from the municipality center town of Nessebar, close to the largest Bulgarian seaside resort – Sunny beach.

I enjoy every day here, not only because the people and the location are great, but also because of all the friends I have here, of course without forgetting The Fashionway.

This summer everything with fruits and vegetables is a perfect goal. If you are wondering what kind of outfit to choose for the pool or the beach it is easy – ? watermelon, pineapple, lemons or even peppers ? motives could be great. My favorite is the watermelon, what about yours?

Vintage but trendy

Looking for a new look this summer and some style inspiration for creating a new outfit? I have for you an easy, casual proposal: why not a lovely holed or knitted top/tunic in a vintage look? I always thought clothes of a knitted lace type are too vintage and look like something from my grandma’s wardrobe. I am sure that every woman has something similar and know it very well. But they should not be underestimated – they are perfect for the summer and would work well with any high waisted skirt, shorts or pants. I personally chose the classic black color under it – high waisted shorts and a balconette. So, don’t wait – find your vintage knitted tunic and go for it – style it in fashionway!

Feeling purple

Today, I’m “showing-off” my beautiful purple dress from the amazing “Balina”, which is simply great! I am not a fan of wearing often elegant or formal dresses but sometimes for special occasions it gives me a nice feminine feeling. This dress has a modern design, nice for the summer with its no shoulder look and it’s just perfect for the city night, a cocktail evening or any formal occasion. Really gives you that confident flair. Moreover, I think for such a dress clean looks are just splendid.

I also wear with pleasure my great silver-gold shiny high heels from Humanic.

Hopefully you like today’s look and maybe you will also choose the trendy purple color for a future occasion, in a fashionway.

What I wore:

  • Balina dress
  • Humanic high heels

July pink try on with a floral touch

This post is all about one of my favorite outfits – jeans shorts with a no-shoulder cut top. A pair of simple shorts which are never out of fashion could be combined almost with every kind of shirt. I usually wear jeans in standard colors, but as the hot pink has been stepping up it’s game this spring and summer for my look today I chose shorts in this sweet color and a floral top with a matching star sewn on it. To complement the look I took one of my favorite „I love summer“ shoes, which have their own flower – fruit print, too.

What about you – are you keen on wearing jeans shorts in hot, sweet colors? Try it , during the summer every eye catching color brings great mood and good vibes!

Basic and simple white

I often choose basic colors over prints – as simple as they are, they never get old – like for example this organic cotton Fendi dress.

In the summer days an outfit in white works perfectly during the day just as well as for the night. A white dress in your style is never a bad choice to put in your wardrobe. Besides – there are other advantages – as soon as your body is well tanned or sun-kissed it’s the perfect time to wear a white dress. So try to get some sun during this wonderful season and then go for light clothes. Also, buying classic pieces in basic colors is never wasted money and they are wearable for a long time, just like a classic bag or shoes.

In addition, as you can see, my shoes are also in a classic (I have them since two years) beige/brown palette – I think that colors which are close to the skin tones are also perfect for the summer.

So, what about you, do you buy more classic fashion or prefer one-season pieces in the up-to-date colors and style?

Happy International Kissing Day

July the 6th is the International Kissing Day. In some countries it is custom for both men and women friends to kiss each other on the lips as a greeting, while in others an air kiss on each other’s cheek is a standard. In other places some people actually opt for 3 kisses as a form of a greeting.

Of course, the most passionate is the kiss between partners. So, however you kiss, enjoy it and make it with feeling! Happy international Kissing Day everyone!

In any case I have to say a few words about my outfit – inspired by the color of the kiss ?- a red transparent jacket, one of my favorite lace tops and black shorts, always combined with love, passion and in a fashionway.

Red passion on a wedding day

Notice the people who are happy for your happiness, and sad for your sadness – they’re the ones who deserve special place in your heart …

And because I am happy for the happiness of other people, today I want to share with you a special event which I attended – the wedding of two close friends.

The place was magnificent – Vila Vita Panonia – a hotel and a holiday village situated in Burgenland, on the sunny side of Austria. Not only the place, but also the organisation, the guests and friends – everything was amazing. One of the most existing things was of course the ceremony- like in the movies, on a small island in the lake, with the bride coming over a bridge with her father leading her – really like in a fairy tale…

We are waiting so long for this day – still when its there everything passes so quickly, like in a dream. But I like to say that the big emotions are hidden in the preparations for such an event.

I usually don’t fancy the red color, but for this occasion I wanted to wear a long red passion dress and wanted it to be really extraordinary elegant and beautiful. The length, the Schleif, the form and every small detail were important for me because I wanted to look perfect – for which I am extremely grateful to Alegra fashion who made the dress. And so I felt – walking with my husband – exceptionally good and like a princess, but in a modern variant, of course, in a fashionway.

All you have to do is fly

„Your wings already exist. All you have to do is fly.“ This is my quote of the day, as well as the logo of my outfit today – a simple T-shirt with short jeans – my casual style once again. Figuratively speaking, but somewhat true – each one of us can fly as long as he figures out how to use his wings. A lot of us fly to follow their goals, others develop themselves in different areas or fly when out in the nature while some do so when in love, etc. As for myself – I am flying when I do useful things and things that make me happy and content. But to do that I am trying to learn to love myself, be a friend with life, trust myself, believe in my inner resources and always keep going forward, of course in a fashionway.

What about you – what makes you fly?

The Fiakers

Today, I decided to show you something that is typical for Vienna – the two-horse carriages named „fiakers“. They are just as much a part of Vienna as St. Stephen’s cathedral and the Giant Vieneese Ferris Wheel. The fiaker make the cityscape so typical that everyone could feel the majestic of Vienna and although I am living since many years here every time I see them my heart beats faster.

These splendid horses and the royal looking carriages made me, while standing next to them, also look marvellous. And because my favourite horses are white I chose a white top, shoes and bag, matched with a beige pleated maxi skirt. These skirts are not only trendy, but also comfortable, light and airy – perfect for the hot summer days. You can match them in many ways with many different tops and shirts, but never forget to do it in a fashionway.
