Pinkish Orange

"Hot" - synonyms: burningfeverishscorchingsizzlingsultryswelteringtorrid... And that ain't for summer. You can still remain in the "hot mood" despite cold weather outside. I've never thought I could match vivid pink with orange before. That combination seemed to me unacceptable. But once You try something bright and brave, you'll never go back. :)
"Жаркий" - синонимы: горячий, пылкий, страстный, палящий, знойный, испепеляющий... И совсем необязательно описывать этими словами лето. Можно оставаться в том самом "горячем настрое" несмотря на холодную погоду за окном. Раньше мне было сложно представить, как сочетаются между собой ярко-розовый с оранжевым цветом. Мне казалось это по меньшей мере несовместимым. Но если один раз попробовать надеть что то смелое и яркое, то навряд ли потом можно будет от этого отказаться. Главное - не переусердствовать. :)

Xmas's Coming

 I just can't help thinking of forthcoming cozy winter evenings. Moreover, the thought that we would soon start giving and receiving presents inspires me so much. Hope, you all have the same mood!

Late Autumn

From time to time I check the calender to know whether I´m not mistaken. Surprisingly warm it´s being here in Estonia in comparison with the past forecasts. That makes me glad in any case. Back to my favorite color combination - beige and blue. I´ve mixed it with some chocolate and as a result, I´ve gained the perfect autumn look. If previously, I suggested to try such kind of look for spring period, I insist on trying that color matching also in autumn.
Время от времени я поглядываю на календарь с мыслями "я ничего не путаю?!". На удивление, в Эстонии все еще тепло, если сравнивать с погодой прошлых лет. И это не может не радовать. Возвращаясь к моей излюбленной цветовой комбинации - бежевый с голубым, я добавила в наряд немного шоколадного оттенка. Как результат, у меня получился идеальный осенний образ. Если ранее, я советовала попробовать это цветовое решение на весенний период, то сейчас я настаиваю его применить и в своем осеннем гардеробе.

Fall Beauty Tips

Here again - post about my fall beauty tips. These posts became so regular on my blog, I just cannot break the rules. So I keep posting some notes about the cosmetics which I use more often at the appointed season.
ISA DORA Anti-Shine Mattifying Powder: Matte Beige 31 SPF 15
I've been searching for this powder for so long. It is almost transperent, very soft and makes your skin matte for all day long. And the effect is so natural, that nobody can see that you use any powder. Besides, it suits for all types of skin from normal to oily. Powder consists of many active ingredients starting from calcium carbonate to vitamin E and SPF 15 which protect your skin for the whole day. In general: make your skin look natural without a hint of shine. Try it!
GOLDEN ROSE Fashion Color Nail Lacquer: 62
That was the perfect shade of beige color. It matched all my fall outfits. Fast drying and easily applicable with its high quality brush. But unfortunately I broke this small bottle in my bathroom. So there will be only one post with this nail polish. In general: nice color for any occasion.
MANHATTAN Soft Matt Lipcream: 95G
This is my third lipcream from Manhattan. Two more were in my previous summer post. Nothing to add - perfect lipstick. I am a big fan of this matte and creamy texture. This lip-cream series became my number 1 in my cosmetic bag. In general: super long lasting and never washes away. 
ORLY Nail Polish Mini Bottle: Wandering Vine 5.4ml
I took this small bottle from the shelf of the shop as soon as I saw it. Very durable and long lasting. It is easy to brush onto the nail with the complete coverage. This nail polish is a seasonal Limited Orly's collection. The color is a bit extroordinary, but this small bottle makes it easy to keep up to date with the latest fashions. In general: emerald is in the trend, so don't forget to try this color everywhere. 
GOSH Mascara Amazing Length'n Build: Green
This soft mascara makes your lashes long is seconds. I've liked this brush, cause it separates and combs the lashes, so they don't stick to each other. This intensive color makes an accent on your eyes. By the way, the mascara contains panthenol which helps condition the lashes. In general: good mascara for experiments with different colors. 
RIMMEL London Professional Eyebrow Pencil: 004 black brown
If someone has gaps in the eyebrow shape, this is the best way to fill them. Frankly speaking I use this pencil more often for my eyes to emphasize the lower eyelid. But the brush perfectly suits for refining the shape of the brows. In general: this pencil will create the desired look for your eye area. 
GOSH Effect Powder: Black Diamond
When I was buying that powder I thought that was for eye use only. To my surprise the slogan of this Powder collection says "Effect wherever you like". I hardly can imagine this black powder applying on my cheeks. But anyway, I should admit, that this small jar consists of incredibly silky powder. And it has several functions: either it can give a strong color effect as an eye shadow, or be faded out for a shivering effect. I try both of them, depends on the make up. But what Gosh producers say is that this powder can be also mixed with other colors to gain a perfect effect. Have to try it! In general: versatile and for all-purpose powder. 
MAYBELLINE Express Finish Diamonds: 810 Black Graphite
MAYBELLINE Express Finish Lacquer: 550L Iced Cherry
These two nail polishes were offered in a tandem. So there was no choice, and I bought both of them. These vivid shades and anti chip formula exceeded my expectations. The bottle has a unique control-flow brush that applies only the required amount of nail color. Usually one applying for me is enough and I don't need any second coat. The most pleasant thing is that the nail polish dries in one minute. Burgundy color is pure and bright. As for black color it has some shimmers inside. In general: Good nail polish for everyday use. Looks nice on long nails.

Back to Basics


Is there anyone who doesn´t have any pair of straight blue jeans?! Everyone does. Especially when it´s up to white shirt. It is like the golden rules of the basic wardrobe. By the way, the shirt was bought in Athens Zara. I fell in love with these cuffs and collar. Such a small detail can turn into "no one has this shirt". ;)
Существуют ли ещё люди, у которых не найдется ни одной пары прямых синих джинсов? Пожалуй, таких уже нет, особенно если дело касается белой рубашки. Такой комплект входит в "золотые правила" базового гардероба. Кстати, эта рубашка была куплена в Афинском магазине Zara. Мне безумно понравились манжеты и воротник. Казалось бы такая маленькая деталь, а так преображает вещь и ставит её в ряд "такая есть только у меня и ни и кого больше". :)

Block Formation

That is so exciting to watch the passers promenade the streets. As people say, I have good powers of observation. In this case that was really funny to see their reaction to my almost summer look as it is quite cold outside. But that day the weather was perfect and while shooting I enjoyed basking in the sunshine. The look consisted of one main black color and 2 horizontal lines. As far as I know this season color blocking is very popular. So that was my attempt to make something similar. 
Разве не увлекательно следить за прохожимыми?)) Учитываю мою способность к наблюдению, мне было крайне забавно смотреть на реакцию людей на мой почти летний прикид, ведь на улице уже осень. Но в тот день было особенно тепло, и параллельно съемке мне удалось ещё и погреться на солнце. Наряд состоял из основного черного цвета и двух горизонтальных линий. Насколько я помню, цветные "блоки" очень популярны в этом сезоне. И это была моя небольшая попытка изобразить что то похожее.
