FMM: How did you first start working in fashion
and blogging?
CN: I launched my blog two years ago due to my
passion for fashion. I wanted to make it look great,
to have quality content, even though, at that time,
I wasn’t as much involved in the fashion industry.
However, I’ve always been focused on details, and
I like to think that I expect so much from myself,
no matter what my project is. I have learned from
experienced people and from specialists, so I
have grown in time. I could never have imagined it
would eventually become my new job, considering
I have worked before in so many different domains,
such as the fitness and retail industries.
FMM: Tell us about your first designer
collaboration and how it happen ed?
CN: My passion for shoes is well known, and also
that I have an impressive shoe collection. I have
always dreamed of having my own line. After
several meetings with Ana Parvan, and after I
got to know what the whole process is about, I
immediately decided to get involved in the project.
In less than one month, the models were designed
and created and were ready to be worn at fashion
weeks. I am looking forward for launching several
collections in the near future.
FMM: What other future projects are you
working on?
CN: I will launch an online shop, a bag collection
with a Romanian brand, and a t-shirt collection
for teenagers together with my daughter. Also,
I will open a new Rawyal franchise restaurant
(Rawyal is the raw vegan catering restaurant I
have opened with my family), and so many more
projects in the future.
FMM: How did you make fashion blogging a fulltime occupation?
CN: Working hard, with passion, together with
talented people who helped me grow in this
domain-they brought value to everything we have

done together. I know I can do more than this, and
hopefully I will find enough time to do it as I am so
busy every day with my kids, Rawyal restaurant,
and my fashion blog.
FMM: What are your favorite makeup products
for contouring, and what is the best spring
makeup trend?
CN: The trend now is to use make-up as lightly
as possible, so that you will get a porcelain like
complexion. My favorite products to use are a
brown eyeliner and eyeshadow, with a darker
bronze-like face powder.
FMM: What are your must-haves in your travel
wardrobe and the best shoes for both style and
comfort?
CN: Flat gladiator sandals which are also perfect
for traveling-they are stylish and comfortable. And,
I also love the Oxford shoes.
FMM: What is your best healthy and delicious
dinner recipe?
CN: In the evening I usually prefer a green salad,
with corn and avocado, or a green smoothie. They
are low carb and alkalizing.
FMM: Your blog covers fashion, food, travel,
and beauty-how do you make your blog stand
out and be unique in a world filled with fashion
bloggers?
CN: I think the most important thing is to put your
own personal touch on everything you do. Also,
you must constantly get information, be careful to
choose quality materials, and be consistent so
that the results will be seen in due time. There
are so many bloggers nowadays, but you have
to bring your own story, and do everything with
passion for what’s beautiful and not to just receive
free outfits and beauty products. Your blog need
to educate, because people who feel the way
you do will learn to dream higher in life, and will
consider you an example.
