Smart, not paying attention


Instagram and Facebook were down last week. I didn't notice. How crazy is that! I normally spend quite a number of time in there but the day I decided to take a break and deducate myself o something offline and super fun (with very limited internet in the building) insta and facebbok were not working. Shortly: best timing ever.
I have spent the girls day out with my beautiful mother. We went to the gallery and enjoyed every bit of culture and beautiful painings. One of my favorite artists (Vrubel) collection is big in there. Enjoyed the fullest. 

But I am standing next memorable painting for me. When I was in school I wrote a paper on the painitng and artist. It is Karl Brullov's probably most famous piece. Portait of his friend's daughters. I wanted to have my picture next to it because I felt so very nostalgic that moment.


By the way, do you like me wearing a long skirt? I rarely do because I am short. That is why this long skirt brings so much fun and joy to me. I really look good in it and it makes me wear it very often lately. And as I wanted to look adorable I added a top with floral collar, probably the cutest piece I have. Glasses are a must for me in the museums to see better. Not very big bag is a great add when you need to carry your documents, wallet, keys and phone. Very comfy.


I was wearing:
Oasis top
love Moschino bag
Jil Sander boots
Uniqlo skirt
c/o Glassesshop glasses

 

Have a nice day,
Lyosha

  1. A lovely day out with your mom enjoying some beautiful art is certainly a much better way to pass your time than Instagram and Facebook. I only notice that there was an outage when all my friends were freaking out. I don't use either enough to care myself.

  23. It's great you were able to spend the day doing something special with your mom! It's so important to disconnect from social media once in a while-although it's hard to do!! Beautiful dress! I was going to comment on that before you asked!

The gingerbread house

Mixing, remixing and matching. That's what we do so often that don't actually understand. I love feeling comfy and stylish at the same time so I need some remixing with cool comfy pants. That's why I tend to wear same pants so often esp when it goes to everyday life. I'm sorry but I'm not the one who snaps outfits everyday (I'm in Russia which means that I leave home for work when it's still dark and come back when it's dark already) so many out my ideas or layers stay not seen, This is an outfit that made it. Max and I went to get some shopping therapy to local mall. Our small camera was with us so we went to kid's sectore and took some photos. Why not?     I was wearing: Jacket c/o Oasap Glasses c/o Firmoo Pants c/o Motel Rocks Shoes Alba Coat Desigual   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

Engagement and birthday news

I Suck when it goes to delivering news. I mean.. I never do it in time. I do always forget about birthdays and such and more over even if keep it my mind sometimes I'm too slow, so everybody think someone reminded me. Why Am I saying that? The answer is simple. I have two awesome news to share and I waited for a too long time to write about it. I'm slow again! In September Max and I decided to get married but kept it secret waiting for January to come. A week ago Max asked my father for hand. So finally I can say it out loud: We are getting married in May That's our hands and the small ring on the finger is the  engagement  ring. Why is not classic? My job. It's ment to be worn constantly but I can barely do it with big stone. The  possibility of cracking the ring into pieces is very close to 1 so we started thinking of other options. The   idea was very easy and came to my-soon-to-be-husband Max: flat with one or couple of stones fixed very well. You m...

Karelia part 2

Hello!   ...Or actually a more exciting part. Karelia is known for its brutal northern natural beauty so there is no way of visiting it without spending a handful of time in the wild. To do so we visited Ruskeala natural park. The main attractions there are man made canyons. The Swedes and later on Finnish and Russian in the end mined marble there. Beautiful green-blue marble laid very close to the surface there, in some places it was even out to the air. As mining kept on they finally hit the subterranean waters and the mines was all but flooded. It left us with what makes Ruskeala national park so beautiful.   It was pretty cold there and we were walking around there for hours so I am wearing a super light sweater and foldable Uniqlo anti-wind jacket above from wind and possible rain. and yes I wear flip flops. Call me crazy but it's the most comfortable shoes for me ever. My feel barely feel cold so I feel perfect walking around that way. Bonus points for super easy ground...
