I have never been into green until this year. I found myself adding lots of green items to my closet. Always assumed that colour doesn't suit me nor go with lots of different colours. Can't wait to try out different shades of green that are more winter appropriate like forrest green for the fall/winter. Are there any colours that you avoided in the past and discovered new for yourself this year?

 Another pic of my lovely love. When I start thinking that he will be gone in 3 weeks returning to the states it makes my heart really cry, well anyways......it is what it is.... 

Have a lovely start in the week. Thank you so much for stopping by and your lovely comments :-)

Getting dotty

Dress: ZARA (old)

Heels: Asos

Clutch: H&M

 

As you know, I have been loving polka dots lately. Aside from florals, it was definitely one of my favorite prints this season. Not only is the polka dot a classic pattern that is easy to mix and match, it’s also a simple way to add a playful punch to your wardrobe.This time I kept it pretty simple and chic with that silky flowy polka dots dress. I have had it probably for 4 years now and always love to pull it out for special occasion with my man :-)

We had a great time in Serbia visiting my family. I really had a blast with that shooting first of all because my man took pictures for my blog for the first time :-) and because of that amazing setting and hometown of my mom. Gamzigrad is an  archaeological site, spa resort and UNESCO World Heritage Site of Serbia, located south of the Danube river, near the city of Zaječar. It is the location of the ancient Roman complex of palaces and temples Felix Romuliana, built by Emperor Galerius. If you have a chance, you should visit that place, it's breathtaking and the perfect setting for taking fashion blog pics hahaha ;-)

Also fashion should stand in focus, I  love it when there is a special setting/background, it gives your outfit that special kick. What about you, do you care about the setting while taking pics? 

PS: How do you like my new darker hair?  Dejan from the hair salon Toto is the best hair stylist in the entire world, he has put some brown highlights in my hair to give it some more dimension. I trust in his work since over 8 years and visit him when I am in Serbia, you should check him out TOTO.

A few shots from our trip to Island Mainau, the Island of flowers in the lake constance area. I am truly blessed living in one of the nices area in Germany :-)

Ok to my outfit: Haven't worn this flower embellished skirt for years so it was more than pleased to get some fresh air ;-) I kept the outfit in the natural colour family -a lilttle change to the colourful looks I wore recently.
As the weather gets hotter, I often wear my hair in a side bun. My thick hair being out of my face is a huge plus and it's so much easier to manage in the hot and humid temperatures.
On a side note, I will be flying to Serbia tomorrow for the next 2 weeks with my man seeing my family, really excited as I haven't seem my parents since Easter. Can't wait to have 3 weeks off to spent with my man  and get some rest, pretty exhausted from working so much.
 Hope you enjoy my outfit. Have a lovely weekend dears!

It's time for my lovely Sunflowers

Dress:  H&M

Blouse: Forever21

Necklace: Bijoux Brigitte

Belt: Asos

Shoes: JC Penny

Sunnies: H&M

Full of anticipation I was counting the days to take pictures in a sunflower field . I am such a flower girl (Peach Time; hippie-flower-power-girl), thats why it was an easy one to pick my blogname fleurani :-). Fleur for flowers in french and Ani as my nickname. Every morning when I drive to work I am passing a huuuuuuuuuuuuge sunflower field and it immediately lifts me in a super good mood. Sunflowers have the magic to put a smile on my face and can be so inspirational :-). It was a quick peek in the wardrobe to pull off this outfit. Yellow and blue are so cheerful complementary summer colours. When I first put this blue dress on, it felt so boring just by itself. The mustard ruffle blouse which my baby gave me for christmas pulled it off nicely. Love the outcome so much :-) Do you have special items that put a smile on your face?

Peplum a la Chic

Peplum can be worn in so many ways and always adds thats feminine touch to every outfit. This time I have worn it with a peplum pencil skirt. Colourwise I kept it classic with black and white and accessoirized with my black pearl necklace that I rediscovered in my collection which is probably over 6 years old :-). I figured that peplum looks kinda incomplete without any necklaces, don't you think?
Which of the Peplum looks do you like best so far (Peplum in the mix; Peplum ). Let me know!
