Inside and Outside

Chichen Itza is an iconic Mayan city, the most famous of all Mayan ruins on Yukatan peninsula. Not only it is a very scientifically important sight, it is very popular with tourists. Having wonderful friends giving tips on making our trip perfect (and honestly, it worked like a charm), we visited Chichen Itza early. I don't only mean coming at the opening time but also it was our third day in the country (counting with arrival day, which was mostly evening for us). Being a very popular tourist attraction there are many people there literally all the time. It steals some charm so it's better to face audience when you are only getting a hold of historic tourism. Each and every other sight we visited (and we also visited Coba, Muyil and Tulum as well, I'll tell you all about it later on) was way more quiet and private, most of the time we felt alone with the stones (it is incredible!). Also Chichen Itza has built in market. I still don't know how I feel about it: partly ...

Guess what? I am on vacation in Mexico! I bet I am having a blast and not checking my blog and socials or thinking of my blog at all. I am interested in ruins, sea and the green. Well, I'll be honest so I think I am actually interested in food as well.  Right before I went on vacation I made a hair cut. I actually did it on purpose because I wanted it for a long time (being busy, laze, you name it) and holiday season + vacation pushed me to finally do it. I do hope after vacation I will finally slow down. But so far I will leave you alone with my new hair and colorful sweater. I was wearing: Levi's jeans Monki sweater   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

And a final part from me. I really enjoyed my experience and it definitely was tons of fun to participate. The last day for me was filled with an important and unusual for me show. It was focused on items for sport, for gymnastics and figure skating. SO beautiful! I love it that the girls on the catwalk were not models, they are actual little sportspeople who train in Moscow, many of them are actual clients of the brand.   Other than that I I got to see more casual and usual shows as well. Enjoy! My outfit is pretty warm and comfy. Long skirt is actually easier to wear than you have thought. My back back allowed me to carry stuff I needed and my boots helped to stay warm and dry despite the rain. I was wearing: Akhmadullina dreams skirt Arny Praht bag Empodium shoes H&M sweater necklace custom   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

ENG: Do you like fashion contests? It's great in my eyes. It gives extra motivation to the designers, exposure because of the press and jury (who are all related to fashion) and surely the prizes. Last Monday I had a chance to watch the young designers paving their path deeper into fashion during the finals of the contest of young designers MKMM (the biggest in Russia). The main reward is to present the collection on Altaroma Fashion Week (Italy). There were three nominations: the collection, the art (theme: On the other side of the Moon) and designer awards (this one is special and is from designers to designers). Each has it's own charm. Among designers present were Like a Muse, May be Yes, Ekaterina Kuriko, Bannikova.clothes, Maria Kiseleva (ONLY DERBY), NEKLY STATE,  Yulia Krylova, Inna Grigor, VVERH official, Nata Gurskaya, Wanna store, Christna Take and the others. The winner of the grand prize is Maxim Mashkov and his brand High Volume.  I know I will flood you in pho...
