Getting Your Stripes

"Is it the perspective of the coming summer? Horizontal stripes are back, but this time, slightly larger than the famous Breton shirt. The nautical feeling is still there, especially if you choose to wear your stripes navy blue! But this season, more than ever, stripes are a real statement! Wear them from head to toe, associate horizontal and vertical ones, à la Jil Sander, mix and match them with others prints (think Prada SS11), in one word, dare!"

Photo shooting for the magazine covers

Three different videos from the process of making the magazine covers. This is so curious to look how the model behaves herself while making a photo shoot. Every magazine decides in what theme to make the pictures. And I've uploaded 3 videos to show how different they can be - 1. sexy and tempting; 2. dramatic and  sublime; 3. tender and appealing.
Три видео-ролика с процесса сьемок для обложки журналов. Мне так интересно наблюдать за тем, как работают модели во время фотосессий. Каждый журнал выбирает тему, в которой будет проходить съемка. Я выложила 3 разных видео, чтобы показать, насколько эти темы могут быть разными: 1.сексуальная и соблазнительная; 2. драматичная и возвышенная; 3. нежная и привлекательная.

Frost VS Fashion

It was quite frosty in the countryside last weekend. But still, I gave everything as a sacrifice for my "blogging" passion.)) Frankly saying, it was not as cold as it seemed, especially having this kind of layering. I was inspired with the long gloves that I've recently received as a present. They look so good with any garment in my wardrobe. By the way, this outfit became my second experiment - combination of summer dress with warm accessories. As it was mentioned for the millions of times - military theme is one of my favourite. This is so fun to match smth  military styled and still remain feminine and individual. :)
На выходных загородом было морозно. Но красота требует жертв, и что не сделаешь ради своего любимого увлечения. Учитывая то, сколько одежды я на себя надела, мне было не так уж и холодно. Моим главным вдохновением стали длинные перчатки, которые я недавно получила в подарок. Они подходят к любому наряду в моем гардеробе. Этот образ стал моим вторым экспериментом - сочетание летнего платья с "зимними" аксессуарами. И как уже говорилось много много раз - я неравнодушна к теме милитари. Мне всегда так интересно сочетать военную тематику и при этом стараться оставаться женственной и индивидуальной. Согласитесь, в "военной форме" это довольно таки не просто сделать. :)

Nerdy Glasses (contest)

"In 2010, they were on everyone's nose! From the catwalks (think Charles Anastase) to the streets (how many pictures of street style have we seen with hipsters wearing them?), nerdy glasses were absolutely everywhere, unavoidable. But did we really want to avoid them? The most popular pair will keep being the famous Wayfarer (or their knock off), but nerdy glasses come in all shapes, colors, and sizes. This call for contribution is especially dedicated to them! We'll keep the sunglasses for this summer, so please only send your spectacles ;) "

Tom Ford S/S 2011 Fashion Show


Music by Karen Elson "Pretty Babies"

Featuring: Natalia VodianovaLiya Kebede, Daria Werbowy, Julianne Moore, Anja Rubik, Beyonce, Carolyn Murphy, Amber Valetta, Joan Smalls, Lauren Hutton, Rita Wilson, Chanel Iman, Abby Lee KershawKarlie Kloss, Rinko Kikuchi, Stella Tennant, Lakshmi MenonLou Dillion, Edita Vilkeviciute, Daphne Guinness, Julia Reston-RoitfeldDu JuanLiu WenFreja Beha ErichsenJac JagaciakAnna Wintour and photographer Terry Richardson.

Style: extravagant, glamorous, lots of glittery, animalistic, '70ies.

Nothing to add - just great! Video from the Fashion show is stunning. It gives so much energy. I guess Tom Ford should thank all of his dear friends who helped him to perform the collection. I would say that the models catched my eye more often that the collection itself. Frankly saying, the clothes reminded me something that YSL had already done before. When I started to search for any information in the blogs and  forums, it happened that I was not the only person who shared this opinion.
Нечего добавить - восторг! Видео с показа превосходное - очень живое! Мне кажется, Том Форд должен благодарить приглашенных "моделей", которые помогли ему презентовать коллекцию на должном уровне. Ловила себя на мысли, что взгляд поневоле падал чаще на модель, чем на саму вещь или комплект. А последние очень напоминали старые коллекции Ив-Сен Лорана. Когда я решила поискать информацию на данную тему в блогах и форумах, оказалась, что такого мнения придерживаюсь не одна я.

Winter promenade

It is almost the middle of winter. The pictures were made somewhere in the beginning of the month in the Old Town of Tallinn. So the Christmas mood was still present there (mostly for the tourists). Even that the snow was falling and the temperature was -7, I've managed to take many shots without the jacket. And you know what? I wasn't dying of the cold. The camera gives a warming effect to me))lol. But to avoid exposure, I preferred to put on many clothes. I can't say that all of them were warm (especially my summer dress), anyway the layering helped me from being frozen. And that day I've tried a new colour of the lipstick. Honestly, that was only shaded lip pencil, but I've got that "plum" colour at last. Hope to try it once more in next posts. 
Уже почти середина зимы. Фотографии были сделаны в начале месяца в старом городе Таллинна. Там все ещё царило Рождественское настроение, по большей части из-за туристов. Несмотря на то, что шел снег и на улице было -7, мне удалось сделать много снимков даже без верхней одежды. И знаете, я совершенно не замерзла. Наверное, моя камера дает согревающий эффект.))) Но чтобы все же избежать переохлаждение, я надела на себя огромное количество вещей. Сложно сказать, что все они очень теплые (особенно мое летнее платье)), но такое наслоение меня на самом деле грело. И ещё в тот день я решила попробовать новую помаду. По правде, это всего лишь растушеванный контурный карандаш, но я все же добилась того "сливового" эффекта, которого так хотела. Надеюсь, повторить это ещё раз в скором времени.

Androgynous

Men and women wardrobes tend to look more and more alike. It's very common nowadays to steal your boyfriend's shirt, jeans, or jacket. In the same way, men now wear clothes that were considered feminine a few decades ago, like tight jeans or plunging neckline shirts. A small revolution is even on its way, as boys are starting to wear heels!

The Cross To Bear

Cross jewelry has come to lose his initial meaning and is no more the religious symbol it once was. On the contrary, wearing cross jewelry is at the moment fashionable and edgy. Rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, you can find crosses everywhere, and you can wear them all at the same time, as a real fashion statement, or mix a piece or two with your outfit.
