What I did in June

When I first posted the June roundup, I received a couple of messages from readers suggesting me to continue with this section on a monthly basis. Positively, I think it is a good idea, mainly because I can be a bit lazy about setting posts together sometimes, and this is a non-stressful-way-at-all  to stay stuned.



To be honest, I just wrote this plan down on my phone agenda. I was slightly afraid I would totally forget about it because of our inminent trip, and would consequently end up posting the July roundup in August. But, ey! It looks like I managed to do it on time and all, like a true grown up.

Anyway, this last month I...

 My story with dress was love to first sight, so I thought I´d share a little preview of it with you.

Last week I accidentally discovered there is an alternative fashion and gothic friendly store here in Bucharest and although their website didn´t look too appealing to me, I targeted the place as my next shopping window stop. 

I am so happy I did so!

They are relatively new in town, and most of their stock is not uploaded to the website yet, so imagine my face when I found out all their Hell Bunny, Restyle and Alchemy Gothic treasures on hangers and shelves. I was about to faint of happiness. Like literally. 

OK... maybe not that much, but I was quite shocked anyway.

So after some minutes of rack inspection, I encountered this very-Victorian-like dress from Spin Doctor and well... the rest is ancient history.

Both, Harry Potter and the Philosopher´s Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

Well, I am not really into fantasy and child literature (or at least I have not been into for a long, long time), maybe because as my field of learn is precisely literature, I tend to select works I find interesting from the academic point of view. Nonetheless, when I started my Summer holiday break last week I was feeling so tired, the only thing I wanted to do was relaxing and forgeting about world.

Somehow, Harry Potter universe suddenly looked like the perfect choice.

I suppose I felt more inclined to open my mind as I have been also reading Song of Ice and Fire saga recently and did enjoy it, like QUITE A LOT.

I had a good previous impression on the film adaptations, but not about the books.

I am glad to say I have changed my mind and will probably continue enjoying the series for some more time. However, I am not completely happy about ebook format at all and the only reason why I am using it to read is because my access to Spanish and English books in Romania is quite limited right now.
I might be shopping on Amazon any time.

This month I have continued developing my current obsession with red colour, mostly by wearing ruby shades on lips and nails.
I also experienced a growing inclination towards cobwebs, but this is nothing new on goth ladies, and more specifically on me.
Because, you cannot collect too much Halloween stuff, can you? ♥

So tell me darlings, how was your June?
