7. July
In July it was all about being young, wild and free.
The festivals have begun. First we’ve been to the NEVERSEA festival in Constanta, Electric Castle followed it soon after. Peugeot 208 and Peugeot SUV 3008 have been my official rides for the roadtrips to the festivals.
#20Project was still on the roll and i was meeting more and more talented people and i was working with amazing brands.
8. August
August was very very hot and i was still working on my #20project. It was worth it as i’ve got some amazing shots created with newcomers in photography & make up.
Untold festival meant also work for me as i was endorsing the ENGIE corner during the festival. It was an amazing experience. Also i was very happy to hear my favourite band once again: HURTS!
Later i have launched a festival capsule collection for the SUMMER WELL FESTIVAL. Everything was inspired by the 70’s because the fabric i used was an 100% authentic printed nylon from 1972.
You can still purchase these pieces in my shop here.
Summer Well festival meant also work for me as i had a SWEET PAPRIKA corner inside the festival designer’s market and also i had a collaboration with LAYS during this festival.
Roxana, my Sweet Paprika half was there with me!
I almost finished my #20project but there was still a puzzle piece missing.
I have been in a holiday in Greece. It was a real adventure and i am still sorry i haven’t finished the vlog series from this MANGOMANOS experience. I guess you will see them in 2018, you will be influenced instantly and you will be able to book your ticket in advance.
9. September
My august was way too full as you might have noticed, so september was more of a PAUSE for me.
I finished my #20project with an amazing photoshooting in Retros location with PNK casual brand Ioana Cristea as a make up artist and Iuliana as a photographer.
It still one of my best photoshootings ever, mainly because i had the best make up ever!
Had a collaboration with LG new phone and it turned out as a great tech experience.
10. October
I ‘ve returned to MILAN FASHION WEEK with Iuliana !
True fact, i bought the tickets in the last minute. I was not planning this, but when all the fashion show invitations started to enter in my e-mail i decided that it would be a shame not to attend them. With this occassion i’ve designed the Empire Golden dress. Now you can buy the winter version of it in emerald green and red.Soon after i have hugged a tree with my boys, celebrated 5 Years of SWEET PAPRIKA design in a small circle of friends with a 5 o’clock tea event. Bought myself a big balloon with this occassion.
had probably the best portrait ever created by Iuliana for my halloween Issue. I decided to pay credit to the Playboy bunny so i got in the role in a MURMUR bodysuit with an amazing dramatic make-up created by Ioana Cristea.Went to Paris, thanks to the best birthday gift ever. Andreea Pasca bought 2 tickets for us in June, as we are both celebrating our birthdays in June.
We have been to Dior Couturier du Reve avec cette occasion.
Had an unexpected collaboration with Tom Ford fragrances.
11. November
I have created a very weird campaign for the Black Friday for OTTER shoes and i am very proud of it. Especially because they let me do it. The best thing you can get from a brand is total freedom of expression. It was made in the ROMANIAN KITSCH MUSEUM.
I Have lauched a new EMPIRE COLLECTION …and i have to thank a lot to my team for all the efforts and Retros for welcoming us once again in their location.
12. December
Patrick co-starred with me in a LEE COOPER Christmas campaign.
I have started using the new HUAWEI MATE 10 PRO and i am frankly in love with it.
I have dropped smoking cigaretes and now i am a new generation tech smoker thanks to the new GLO “press for heat” experience. You might have noticed that i am constantly showing of #myglo.
Have seen the first snow on the 5th of December in an amazing place. Hadar Chalet has to be on your #TOSEE list. It is a perfect place to recharge your batteries.
Have flied to Iasi and hosted a Santa Styling Session in POP MON ART. Was one of the best experiences for this year. I just couldn’t stop talking to everybody. I returned home with a lot of good vibes.
2017 thank you for letting me grow.
2018, You’d Better Be AMAZING!
