ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: two destinations, one story, the same sun

Two destinations, two stories in the same day

What happens when we are apart, beside the fact that we miss each other?

We simply split our way...the blonde half goes to her grandma to make her a surprise for her b*day, drinks coffee and reels memories and funny stories while the brunette is dropped on by a good friend living the so common drama of women and goes to the seaside to enjoy the sun and loose her platforms in the magical sand.

B.r.u.n.e.t.t.e.
Sunday 8.00 am. 

Young lady in from of my door. Ring bell ON. Hysterical moment. Drama queen story. The Queen needs a moment of freedom and wants to go to the seaside. Friend in need. Brunette calls the other brunette, the Hight Street Cardigans one and commands her to be ready in 20 minutes or less. On the highway (not to heaven, but to a peaceful place for not so peaceful characters). Four hours on the beach, 800 photos, only 6 absolutely fabulous for the high flier brunette. Two hour lunch: sea food, wine, carrot soup and a perfect communist Amandina. Back in Bucharest, three calm spirits, Feist on the radio, no words, just thoughts, ready for party. Brunette crying for the lost pair of platforms. The sun rising. A new day.

B.l.o.n.d.i.e.
9.30 am

Two good friends, a car and one way to Targu-Mures. Love doing surprises. Grandma and her birthday for her 83 beautiful years. A Saturday morning for buying presents: a parfume (she is still very cool and fabulous) and some natural-bio cosmetics. One hour later
Ring bell ON. Hysterical moment. Grandma was shocked! Mission accomplished. She was very happy. Stories and good food, pictures, old times...like we always do..then sleep and some tv..and tea...lots of tea. Chill and relax. SUNDAY...Get ready for a party with cake and all the rest. With all the family. Fabulous time with my people...And then return to Bucharest...That's all folks!

 Brunette&Blondie kisses ya, girls!

Stay tuned for a NY vs London post, next week!

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: enJOY your scarves


enJOY your scarves

While taking our breakfast, the traditional english black tea&the french croissant, we rediscovered a new JOY, the magazine itself, and in the same time we enjoyed four fabulous scarves signed by four romanian designers (Corina Vladescu, Maria Lucia Hohan, Laura Lazar& Lena Criveanu).

If you feel in the mood for playing and reinvent the function of the scarf, these four are the best to begin to colour your everyday life and everyday habbits...attach them to your hair bun, make a bow on your neck, wear them as a bow-belt, accesorize your handbag, make a bookmark for your favourite Dali album, enwrap a present for your best friend or attach it on a pillow on your bed. You have so many ways to get the most out of these four items.

So girls, enjoy the game!

Kisses

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: Who's the ab fab man in our lives?

Who's the ab fab man in our lives?

He loves ties and whisky, brown and grey, he's not a vegan, but he keeps dreaming about a vegetarian diet, he's there when we need him and he makes us smile with his silly jokes everytime we have a drama, he is meticulous and always a gentleman, he brings us flowers in the middle of winter, with no reason, he hates sea food, but tastes it everytime we ask him, he likes Louise Ebel and posts a photo of her everyday on FB, he is good and kind, and he is one of the ab fab men in our lives.

We have decided to dedicate a post to every ab fab man in our lives and Marius Tatu is the first to be posted about. 

Why? Because all the reasons wrote above and because he's one of the most talented photo editors alive.
For those who don't know who's behind the amazing edited photos in Absolutely Fabulous Magazine, Glamour, Prevention & GQ, he is the MAN.

And because he always "gifts" us his Sony NEX-5 camera when we need it.

And that's why we <3 him.

Isn't he a catch? :)

kisses

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: Back&Scrabble

Back&Scrabble

20.03.2010 - Personal Diary of Brunette Half of Ab Fab

After a long week without our beloved crazy blonde girl, Sunday  I succeeded in convincing her to get out of the house. In fact it wasn't me, but a very old friend of ours: Scrabble. We both love Scrabble and we play it since we were just two little girls and it seems we still find it exciting!

To return to my precious blondie...She was still pretty ill, but she was an appearance as usual: black velvet baggy pants, golden flats, fuchsia lipstick & statement gold earrings, ready for a rose wine glass & butter biscuits and amazingly for a reasearch about the history of Scrabble.

21.03.2010 - Personal Diary of complete Ab Fab Team

How the comeback ended?!

The brunette half of Ab Fab looking for tickets for our future holiday in Amman and dreaming about sunny days&DJs, and the blonde one talking about how Scrabble, the "to scratch frantically", is a trademark of Hasbro.Inc. in U.S.A and Canada, sold in 121 countries in 29 different lanaguage versions. 

And now...Monday 21st we are back in business!
Have a fabulous week, girls!

Lots of kisses

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: Pizza Time&Spring Stripes

 Pizza Time, Spring Stripes&Girls Night In
 
If you wanna have fun with your girls, but you're not in the mood for high heels and dressing up for the city life, your should spend your girls night out, IN!

IN? You might be asking yourself! Yes, girls, stay inside, order a huge pizza and buy a few bottles of rose wine and then with all the spicy ingredients - peper, hot ketchup, your FB account, the phone numbers of your fans, Gossip Girl on TV and Oh Land on the radio, everything will be fabulous.

Even if you won't spend the night in the club don't forget to dress yourself properly for the event. It's all about eat, drink, socialize, photo shootings and skype conversations and you really have to be fabulous. 

You never know who's gonna knock on your door at 3 am.

And you know why we always choose pizza (when we want to eat junk food)?
Because it is said that pizza is a lot like sex. 
When it's good, it's really good. 
When it's bad, it's still pretty good.
So girls don't forget that good food always ends with good talk or good / still pretty good sex!!!

XoXo

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: Fabulous is the new PRecious


Fabulous is the new PRecious

Such a lovely afternoon...garden tea party...floral&leopard patterns...lace&silk...smiles&roses.

It started with black tea and biscuits, MonLapinCitron little fair & red apples, with old&new friends, all gathered around a small shabby chic coffee table; and continued with the well already known question... 

"And in the end who are you exactly, beside  Diana Enciu&Alina Tanasa?"

For those who still haven't heard the story short...

"We are PRecious!" - they laughed
"We know you are precious girls, but seriously, who are you exactly?" - they asked again

Well...

"We are Fabulous PR&Events. A couple of PRecious - like our business cards say ( PRecious= PR&Communication Manager), with expansive experience in fields like Media, New Media & Fashion; Project Managers of Ab Fab project: Absolutely Fabulous Magazine (www.absolutelyfabulous.ro); Fashion&Vintage Fair,and the creative minds of every fablous project or event the team is in charge of...." - and now we laughed 

We have never been good enough to compliment ourselves and our work and this was definitely not a quite comfortable situation. We always let the others to judge the spirit of the Fab Team and the day&brain work and so they did, discovering us in a sunny afternoon in silk&lace, leopard&floral pattern, drinking a fabulous LadurĂ©e tea.

XOXO

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS by D&A: It smells like real spring


We [HEART] spring & love the new [US]


Sometimes you need to step outside, clear your head and remind yourself of who you are. And where you wanna be. And sometimes you have to venture outside your world in order to find yourself.

As for us, we are happy right where we are. We just wanna enjoy spring & morning butterflies because this is what fabulous girls do.

Today we feel fabulous and that's how you should feel too, as you are!

Like Blair W. used to say... "I'm the best of the best. I'm not anyone, I'm me. I'm not a stop along the way. I'm a destination. And if you refuse to come, I'm gonna need to find a replacement...So...girls, the waiting list?"

XOXO
