Charismatic, sensible, and creative, you will always find Adina painting the sky through love because she does believe in love, a feeling she extroverts by not counting her footprints. "Convicted to life," she thinks this is the most beautiful way to draw her portrait and to define her art. She embraces and adapts to every challenge life gives her. She converts it into real feelings, starting from melancholy to euphoria, from sexuality to innocence, and she'd like to describe it by "pure art." Even if Adina always felt the need to express her creativity in writing and drawing, the fear of falling short and disappointing herself and the others limited her, so she put her visions in a box, and she started working as a lawyer in a bank. She continued the pattern, and her second job was in the Interior Ministry at the International Relationships Department. Her strong beliefs in femininity and feminism and her family values determined her to create a new TV Show format and present it on national television. The show was named Bebe.Ro and was about the unique quality of a woman- being a mother. This way, Adina realized she was being heard, so it made her build her online community, through her blog, which became one of the most read in Romania, being in Top Ten Influencers Relationships Category, for four years already. As she was trying to define herself, she always put together the three words she likes the most: energetic, passion, and love. With these attributes, it was born Reprobable Clothing Brand, maybe her most playful project. About clothes and how important is what we wear, Adina Banea uses to say that: "If you want people to listen to you, there's an important lesson here: Dress the message. Always. The clothes we wear and the way we groom ourselves will change the way other people hear what you say. It will subconsciously tell them if you're like them or if you're different. It will determine whether they listen or ignore. Trust or distrust.This is my stronger belief."
