Head candy

I have always been a fan of head accessories. It started with headbands when I was at school. Then it was about hats, hair clips, headbands, headpieces that used to stand out in the crowd and became a very essential part of my personal style. Here are my picks from different online shops.

A hero from the past

When you feel like a main character in a black and white movie where a female character waits for someone to come and change her life for better or for worse, the one that shows up in her dreams as a leading role is one of the following A-class Old Hollywood movie heroes:

Gregory Peck
Roman Holiday (1953), To Kill a Mockingbird (1962), The Million Pound Note (1953).

Giambattista Valli

Couture shows of Giambattista Valli are always a little holiday for me. Seeing all this beautie, which is about details makes me happy to know that this beauty exists in our world. Let's not forget that couture is always about details. Here are my picks of details and backstage moments from Giambattista Valli Fall-Winter 2015 Couture show at Paris Fashion Week. 

Spanish Statue

Even though after six years of being on top of football world Spanish national team is eliminated from FIFA World Cup 2014, fans still support their favourite team despite of everything people rush to say about this unexpected and shocking result. From all of the players on this World Cup my post is focused on Sergio Ramos, the defender of Spanish national team. Other than having the incredible looks of 'spanish statue' the football player Sergio Ramos has won a lot of trophies while playing for Spanish national team and Real Madrid FC. The 'spanish statute' used to play as a defender, but lately his role in the team has changed and Ramos transformed into a secret weapon the club has. He proved it during the UEFA Champions League final in Lisbon by scoring for Real Madrid during the additional minutes of the match and giving them the chance to win the game, which they did on May 24th 2014.

Red Soles

Despite all the talks about Louboutin shoes and its comfort level, every girl on this planet wants to have a pair of the Red Soles in their wardrobe. It is a little dream coming true when you get your first Loubies and walk on that heels proudly as a model on a runway. I was browsing Louboutin site and found really nice pieces for fall-winter'15 season that wanted to share with you. A little tip: don't forget to switch countries at the online shop in order to find more of this fashion candy. 

random 5

              I wrote a blog post. Saved to the drafts. Never going to share it. I just needed to write it down. Sometimes my blog is kind of a diary, I feel that if I write my thoughts and feelings it will ease stuff. Maybe it helps in long run, but whenever I feel the same I open and re-read it, so when I stop doing that I will understand it's over.  Instead of that 'never gonna share it' blog post I wanted to put the songs from my current playlist that are constantly on repeat. People have a tendency to speak through songs.

The Atlas® Collection

I never liked wearing bracelets. Got bored too soon. But now I think it is time to want one. Tiffany's Atlas Collection redefined my perception about bracelets (actually it started with my Jawbone UP24, but it's a completely different story).

The Little Prince

          'I ask the  indulgence of the children who may read this book for dedicating it to a grown-up.'

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry 'The Little Prince'

            There are turning points in every persons life. And everyone deals with it differently. You may celebrate it, cry in the middle of the night holding your pillow, start working out, loose weight, change your job, change your hair colour, waste some amount of money just to feel reckless or make any other impulsive decision... I may be one of those normal people above, but I'm also a person who always comes back to one tiny book which keeps all the wisdom of the earth on its 90-100 pages: The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. This is the book that I cried reading for the first time and I also remember not liking it as a child. But I read it when I was 20 and since then it is one of the most important books of my life. I keep coming back to it, re-reading the parts. Even reading quotes and looking at those pictures wakes spectrum of emotions from happiness to loneliness that ends up with love. I don't think I'm able to convey my feelings and thoughts on this matter, because I get affected every time I take this book and go through the journey that brings peace...

The Glamour of Italian Fashion Exhibition

            London is one of the most fashionable cities in the world. It is undeniable. So there are a lot fashion exhibitions taking place here such as Jean Paul Gaultier Exhibition, Wedding Dresses 1775-2014 Exhibition or The Glamour of Italian Fashion 1945-2014 Exhibition I attended a few weeks ago. It is held in The Victoria and Albert Museum, one of the most beautiful places in London in my opinion. The exhibition perfectly showcased the path of italian fashion of small ateliers becoming leading couture geniuses in the world. How 'Made in Italy' started to add value to the product. There were amazing dresses by very famous designers, people could watch short documentaries about fashion shows of 40's and 50's. It was very interesting to walk there and feel the evolution of the fashion in general. They don't allow to take photos in there, but I'm known for being sneaky in such things ;) That is why I managed to take some pictures, so I could share them with you...

happiness

          Everyone thinks differently about what happiness means to them. Lately I was thinking how little moments that make us smile all of a sudden are small portions of happiness we get in our routine life. And when you stop thinking of reaching 'constant happiness' condition someday, little things become more enjoyable. So happiness that comes in little portions can be different. It comes in different shapes, sizes, tastes, smells, etc...

1. Happiness can be sour in April. Alcha.

2. Happiness can be warm. Just a sunny day.
