Russian ECo Week part 1


I think it's vital we protect our home. Not only the place you live in on bigger scale. I'm not a big talker about ecological matters - I am no guru in trying your best to live with eco-awareness and not someone who just discovered each of you can actually do something and is eager to pass on new knowledge. But I do what I can with little steps I am making everyday like not using paper as much as I can: no plastic bags, choosing recycled products, switching of water while brushing my teeth etc. But in terms of spreading the eco-awareness I do what I can do best: attending Russian Eco Week, listening to smart people talks, watching eco fashion shows (which is a topic I will show more closely) and showing it to you. This year Eco Fashion Week did not unfortunately fully happened but we still are able to see some part of it through Russia Eco Week. For example right after the opening ceremony general public and journalists seen the MKMM (the contest for young designers) showing their eco themed fashion shows! I was most impressed with number of ideas and clothes made from recycled components (I didn't fully understand what exactly was made of and what actually was recycled). Also I just have to highlight and especially mention collection made of dog fur. It must be so warm!

RU: Защита своего дома - необходимость. И не только то место, где ты живешь, но и нечто более, как я думаю. Я редко говорю на темы экологии, но не потому что они меня не волнуют, а потому что не являюсь ни гуру по вопросам осознанной экологичности жизни, ни неофитом, который только осознал важность проблемы и стремится поделиться знаниями. Но в повседневной жизни я делаю свои маленькие шажки постоянно: отсутствие пластиковых пакетов, приоритет преработанным материалам, контроль использования воды (например, во время чистки зубов) и так далее. Что касается распространения экологически этичной жизни я делаю то, что я могу делать лучше всего: посещаю мероприятия такие как Российская Экологическая Неделя, слушаю доклады, смотрю показы этичной моды (на этом я остановлюсь чуть ниже) и показываю это вам, мои читатели. В этом сезоне, к сожалению, полноценной Недели Экологической моды не случилось, однако часть ещё прошла в рамках Российской Экологической Недели у стен Кремля. Например, сразу после открытия заинтересованные в вопросах экологии жители города и журналисты видели показ в рамках конкурса молодых дизайнеров МКММ, который был посвящен экологии и этичной моде. Я была поражена количеством идей и одежды, сделанной из переработанных компоненов (не всегда, однако было полностью понятно, какие менно части выполнены из переработанных метериалов). Ещё я прямо-таки чувствую себя обязанной отметить коллекцию, сделанную из собачьей шерсти. Это должно быть так тепло!


















As for my outfit I picked a warm sweatshirt, warm pants, coat and a hat because it's already fall and spending an hour and a half taking photos almost without a motion is tricky if you want to stay healthy.
RU: Мой образ состоял из теплого свитера, теплых брюк, пальто и шляпы, потому что осень полностью вступила в свои права в Москве, а провести полтора часа, делая фотографии и наслаждаясь показом практически без движения, не так и просто, особенно, если ты заботишься о своё здоровье.




I was wearing:
Calvin Klein bag and sweatshirt
Uniqlo jeans
Mango coat
thriefted boots (from Amsterdam)
not branded (yet my favorite) cap

 

Have a nice day,

What's in my bag?

I never did such post and really wanted to fill in the blanks here. Moreover I wanted to do it because I recently got two items which are hard to show in the outfit but are part of my daily life and style for sure. Plus it's it fun to have a closer look in my daily life? That's why I want to show you my bag contents. When I'm not wearing a backpack which usually means I have a sports uniform inside or planning or carry something more or less big or going for some travels (so I need my hands as free as possible) I tend to use smaller scale bags. The point is to have only minimum of necessary things with me and not to loose something important. This time I'm featuring my recently most loved bag by NewChic (you can shop it here ). Usually I have a wallet with me. When who doesn't? We still money to life, right? It is my very new and super comfy wallet which was provided by great company NewChic  I recently posted two posts with their awesome items here and h...

Mode Vision Fashion Weeks

Despite my being sick and very busy I managed to write the post about this great even before the week ended. I planned on visiting three events during the weeks (04/27 till 05/09 it lasted) but made it only to one. The Mode Vision Fashion Weeks is fashion related art festival. I bet Marcela from Fashionadictas felt how often I was think about her during the event. Acording to russian superstition it might have a hicсup. Anyway, I had a great chance to be a part of only one day of Mode Vision Weeks. But it was very interesting! I same the award ceremony on fashion film category. Fashion film are short and fashion related. It can be a lookbook, a general fashion or some idea. I enjoyed every one of them and can't actually say wich one was the best for me although I must admit the winner for stylist work short fashion look book on Arsenium collection was definitely very good. As for the main winner Delicatessen short movie where a lady ate the jewelery as if it were spagetti left me ...

Floppy hat

This week has just started but I already feel like it's a great week! I enjoy it so much. So much to do, work under and enjoy. Even if life gives you lemons, remember how you eat it whole and love it.I am a positive person and I choose to see pretty but doesn't mean there is nothing to disturb me, I just focus on what is good. It's just a side note, don't dig too deep. The weather is awesome in Moscow and I enjoy every moment of it. Summer passes so fast so I want to take all of it be it walks, boat, outdoors or ice cream. To take photos we went to the wall nearby. On purpose, we missed taking photos there even if we had plenty of other places to shoot in. Back to basics, I'd say. What I also want to say about this outfit is very simple: invest (and it doesn't have to a a real investment just have it in you closet) in statement pieces. Be it bold necklace, a creative hat, pop colors on top/bikini or a cute bag. I highly recommend a floppy hat. It might ...
