Fairy Tale, part 3. Loket/Karlovy Vary

I'm sorry it took me a bit long to update. I have news I'd love to share with you but I'll wait a little more to make a proper post.
We've made a trip to Loket and on our return decided to spent some extra time in Karlovy Vary. It's very nice and easy to travel there on the bus which goes every morning at 9 20-something from Florenz and goes directly to Loket. On the way back it's a great idea not to spent all the day in amazing Loket (although I'm sure you'd wanted to) and have a trip to the near by bigger citys: Karlovy Vary or Sokolov.
Loket is the most stunning place we've visited in Czech republic so far.
Small town and small castle which used to have so many purposes including even being a prison. As I am already talking about prisons I've to write about tortures. I've seen (without looking for it especially) at least 6 museums of tortures during the trip. In Loket it's the most fun. I mean it's fun because there are wax statures displaying some of ways people were treated years ago and to it in real prison rooms. It doesn't look scary even for a kid and as far as I think Loket keepers not intended to scary someone. But the screams-music is very nice. Fab place with tiny center, very nice buildings, very friendly and calm. As soon as we left Loket we started wishing to be there again one day.
We never planned to visit Karlovy Vary but enjoyed the spontaneous three hours walk in the center.
Lazy and old place. It's meant to be for elderly people and I loved this vibe. As it was built for tourism (as far as Karl IV could get tourism) the walk was charming as everything is built not far from the other. I mean, you can have a nice walk and see the most of sight seeing in three or four hours instead trying to decide what would be more dear to you. oh, and visit the Jan Becher museum. Becherovka is very nice thing to dring when you're freezing.

My outfit is very simple but I was very grateful I've chosen over to any other
I look like a super tourist. I knew I would spent all the day in buses, castles, museums and such not knowing what is going to be next. I needed something comfy and universal. So I though of playing androgyny tourist creating this outfit. Did I sucсeed?
Outfit shots in Loket castle


and in a small cafe saved my lovely Max's life from freezing

and the last shot of my outfit was made in Vary.

And finally photos you've been really waiting for:
Loket







This is a Dragon. Buuu! The stories from Loket says this dragon used to love here and is famous for his soft temper helping locals to set fine and such.



Karlovy Vary




 I love how I managed to take Max's photo so very well done.

 It's our family travel tradition to snap drinking from street's water fountains. He even drunk a little but after the photo was taken  - the termal water is very hot.


Are you still here and looking? Ok, you won a virtual prize.

I was wearing as super tourist:
Topshop coat (I told ya, all January in this coat!)
Tommy Hilfiger jeans and boots
Topman rucksack (borrowed from Max)
Max's cap (extra comfy and warm)
Umbrella bought in Prague (trust me, one day under the rain in Strekov and we finally bought it)
DKNY sweater (very old, sorry for showing it again)
Diesel glasses
LEGO watches (gifted from Max for the Winter holidays)

 

Have a nice day,
Lyosha

Explore Starcon

I'm going to brake up vacation post series to share the Starcon experience. A week ago I was sitting on the same spot and getting ready to go. We've been to lovely Saint  Petersburgh. We managed to have a charming walk in the  evening even right after the con. Starcon was all about sci-fi and we loved it so much. We even wore the Jedi costumes (wait for them in the end of post). Max, my lovely husband, sewed them for only 3 days (that's why the design is so simple). and I also got 2d place in Star Wars Miniatures board game tournament took place there. I'm so happy! As for outfit - I've chosen a super comfy outfit with a very cool pants! I bought them on ebay and they are more than 20 year old pants (I guess soon they could buy booze on their own but I doubt I need it). I love them for their shape - keeping me cool during hot and warm when needed. Oh, and can I also call it my pijama pants trend pants? or not? What I also wanted to mention you are my fab set jewel

Say 'yes' to a dress with Yesbabyonline

When you start on inspiration posts it hard to spot. At least for me. I feel like I am half awake in my bed, feeling super lazy and have to strict plans for the morning so I am hitting the 'snooze' button. I almost hear myself saying 'five more minutes' and I do mean five more minutes but I fail and hit 'show me more' button. Inspiration from online shops devour me. Yes it is budget friendly (you don't need to buy things even though you do want to) but it is not safe for your time. I can't really say I am against it, it is a good to relax and is also useful if you need to wait for your partner to finish some stuff to do. This evening it works especially well because I am waiting for my husband to finish the page. I am more or less limited by time so my online inspiration will be most pleasing. As always I wanted to set up a topic to make it even better. My topic for today is long formal dresses . Out of tons of online shop I picked the best for me toda

МКММ + Couture Fashion Show

So! I am so very excited! I have visited my first real actual fashion show ever since March and I couldn’t ever be happier. It’s just wow! This time I visited MKMM final shows merged with Couture Fashion Show later that night. I had a chance to see many wonderful shows by young and talented designers and enjoyed it a lot. Creativity everywhere. Something is purely catwalk (and I totally don’t mind it at all), something that is very easy to imagine rushing the streets, something very creative and futuristic and making a statement with so much in between. Overall in love. I don’t think I really can be picky because after all those digital shows real made a huge impression on me. It almost as if I am visiting my first ever fashion show but better because I know what to expect. I think you are not reading this and already scrolled past this point and enjoy the contestants. And don’t blame you at all.  RU: Прекрасные новости! Мой первый настоящий офлайн показ с марта месяца. И он оказася пр
