Weekend getaway


Last weekend I spent magically surrounded by wonderful people traveling my all! So enjoyable.
We took off late on Friday just to be in St.-Petersburg at 5 o'clock in the morning. All this for one: to get on a bus to Finland in time. It wasn't my first time there but I haven't seen the towns we headed to. Kotka and Hamina were lovely and full of super enjoyable snow. I love how cute and neat Finnish towns are! Never the same yet bearing the sibling resemblance. We walked and walked laughing all the way. It's been years since I traveled in such a big group and enjoyed more than I planned!



Kotka and Hamina views:



















On Sunday we didn't stay in St. Petersburg for long again choosing new place again. Vyborg is an old defensive city used to be Swedish, Russian and Finnish. Its condition isn't perfect but we enjoyed walking there a lot as well. Local castle and museum left us inspired and happy (also warm, right). Our company grew even bigger and I have to admit the company makes everything look brighter. I absolutely adored the chilly experience of Vyborg as well. Oh, if only they took more care about it.
















My outfit is very warm and has more or utility than style. We traveled super lightly and didn't have anything extra we didn't need that is why outfit is practically the same both days. velvet pants totally rock for winter!




 I was wearing:
Forever 21 sweater
Monki pants, socks and top (under)
Uniqlo coat
Caterpillar boots
c/o Glassesshop glasses
c/o Zaful necklace

 

Have a nice day,
Lyosha

  32. It looks like a lot of fun in the snow. It's always fun to go some place new. Even if it's not the first time. Your outfit looks warm which is way more important then style when it's that much snow. :)

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

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

The Big day inspiration

Today is a big day for my husband's family. It's his sister's wedding day. Crazy huh? She used to be his little sister and now she's getting married! I'm sure we'll have a lot of joy on the event but before that I wanted to share some inspirational content with you! Lets imagine you're accompanying me to the wedding party! To provide you with that feeling I teamed up with a new shop to me. I didn't know about it before but now I'd say it's a shame. Lovely choices! Are you ready to know how it's called? I hope you are! So the shop is called Jjshouse     They have tons of wonderful styles! I was so happy to look through the options! Too many not to become overjoyed! Sooo good! But I wanted to pick something interesting for today. I'm not saying anything bad with my choice but the section I loved the most on wedding collection part is mother of the bride dresses  To inspire you and show you the lovely styles stolen my heart I'll gonna sh
