Classiq with a ‘q’

Hello, I’m LatteLisa, feeling honoured to be guest posting for Ada while she’s on vacation. We who follow Ada’s blog know that she doesn’t create a post just to post it; there is a thought behind each one that gives it a feeling of completeness. Without saying too much,  Ada leaves nothing unsaid. If I had to describe her vision in a few  words I’d use these words: classiq (with a ‘q’ of course), elegance,  old Hollywood, Balenciaga and details. Yeah, I think those words  pretty much sum up our girl. It wasn’t difficult to choose photos for  this post, they sort of shouted at me: “Pick me, pick me!” No fuss  needed, just a few basic colours and images that give the feeling of  summer. And of course I had to include one vintage Balenciaga gown  for our Bucharest princess. Enjoy your holiday, Ada, I hope you come back rejuvenated.

    Ada is such a classic lady not only for her great taste but also for the kind way she treats others.

    P.S. Your images are stunning.
