...you are a strong, confident woman...

Busy busy and also tired! This week I've started a new job (yay me)! Ok don't get to exited cause it's not so exiting. i have to get up every morning at 5:30 am (except weekends because they are jobless, you know) and all I do is only faxing, answering the phone, scanning, answering the phone, get the sandwiches, answering the phone, get the mail and answering the phone (yes, there are lots of phone calls...very popular the people in my office). But maybe I'm just a little (just a little..) spoiled, because its not that bad. The peoples are nice and I get paid pretty good (for this kind of job and for my current age) and it's only for a couple of weeks, to earn some money by myself (and also to make my mother happy-finely her child doing something for her living-I'm growing up so fast!!).


 Quick review: grey T from a friend, sheer lemon top: thrifted, light pink jacket from my mom, pants from Zara and the shoes I got from gap many years ago.   
 This 'beads warped with pantyhose' necklace was given me as a present something like four years ago and since then I haven't seen her (She sort of disappeared into the ground, or been stolen by dwarfs either the maid took it- you know, all this clichés). But yesterday I found her somewhere in my room (ok, it was under my bed...) and I thought to myself, where was it all the time that I needed it. Now it will defiantly get some place of honor on my jewelry hanger!
p.s: let's see who know from where this posts headline is taken from... (I think it's a tough one, but what I know)

through the glass with plaid and flip


 White crochet dress belonged to my mother, black belt and bead purse from my grandma and white shell earring from the vintage market
This glass pendant was found when I was at the market a few days ago. I saw a stall with a gazillion beads and outer pendants and immediately skipped over there. The beauty in this kind of thing is to find some treasures out of all the junk. 

 Lemon sheer top-thrifted and denim skirt from urban outfitters
This plaid tights was given me as a present from my mother friends and the sandal has been recognized while driving downtown of the city (of course that we immediately parked the car and jumped at the bargain that by the way cost only 10 dollars).

put on your yamakah




Contributor Magazine
Without any prior notice Hanukkah has already arrived. Still not go into the holiday mood but I think it will come with lighting the first candle (I hope, because what is a holiday without its vibe?!). to all of you who celebrate (and also for the ones who doesn't), take advantage of the holiday and eat lots of "latkes" (potato pancakes) and jelly doughnuts!
Have a happy Hanukkah...

everybody shake your boot-y

Busy days passes on our forces...but that won't keep me out of writing some new post! From here to there I found some time to spend here. But on another issue, some disturbing problem has discovered. since I bought on Friday my fringe lace-up boots i just couldn't take them off, ok, maybe for now its calm down a bit but for the first three days they were the only shoes I wore (ok, now when I'm writing it doesn't sound so much, but at the time it felt like it is!).




 With a touch of a housewife combined the whole outfit with a bow headband that was created from a piece of fabric that my grandma gave me and held with sequin earrings that used as buttons. The rest is an American apparel purple dress, Stradivarius leggings and A+ boots.


The next day it went with the whole country look. This outfit was built around my renovated skirt and the tights that I bought in Romania two years ago that to my surprise they were share a very similar pattern. The rest is a TFS black top, my grandma black belt and the A+ boots.

sheer happiness

Long time no be, I had already forgot how fulfilling the morning shopping hunt in Tel-Aviv is. just another sunny day purchases that ended with a lot of crushes and just a few chosen ones that had the honor of coming back with me.
This day had another eenie meenie tiny goal and that was finding some fabrics for a design that I had in mind. I hope to finish it real quick because it something that seat in my mind for a long time and now that I have the fabrics I want it to be already done! So I'm off to start work...

oh snap

Treasure hunt is always fun especially if you do it at your own house. Most of the time this hunt leads to you seating desperate on the floor wondering how you going to arrange all this mess you've been doing in one week. But, sometimes god decides to forgive you and you find something that was worth all this chaos that has been created around you. And that's what happened to me. At list that what I thought happened to me.


You see, my main hobby in times of boredom is doing this exiting treasure hunt, it has a lot of satisfaction in it, even if you don't find anything at all. So as I approached the closet that seemed to have the most treasur -ish  potential I realized that it's not going to be easy (for illustration-imagine monica's secret closet) but something tiny like this isn't going to stop me! Step by step (you don't want to be Crushed alive from removing the wrong piece at the wrong time) I started rummage around. Surprisingly, after only two minutes, I found a vintage Canon witch turns out, was belong to my mom.
With a big smile on my face I took this oldie to the doctor (I mean I went to the camera store) and planed only to buy some films. The salesperson at the store kindly offered me some help with putting the films inside. As he opened the camera he looks at me and said the two deadly words "IT'S BROKEN" (and in my head it was like "noooo").
But you know what, its ok! because I just find out that there should be another camera stored somewhere in the house. So I'm off for my next hunt...

a gust of wind just blow me away

Today I would like to introduce to you some Israeli designer called Naama Bezalel. Here in Israel she is a well known designer and there is a possibility that one of you have already heard about here, but for the one who doesn't ( and also for the ones who does) I am writing this "get to know with" post. From looking on Naama pieces over the years/collections you can see that her items are mostly characterized by simple and clean lines and that why I like her pieces so much. They have this classic but yet modern feeling. This peter pan collars and those flowing fabrics, I just love it all!
so for that you guys will have the opportunity to be impressed from Naama's enchanting winter 2010 collection here a sneak peek (that happened to include my favs)...
