It's the last chance to see the Edvard Munch exhibition at Tate Modern this weekend, if you haven't seen it yet I strongly recommend you do. I have been there about three times since it opened (you can read about my previous visit <a href="http://www.solfeggiette.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/day-in-london.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>) and went for a farewell today, I can't even promise I won't cry when it ends. That's all because Edvard Munch is my favorite artist of all times, he is like the Edgar Poe of visual arts for me. Of course I purchased a print as a trophy after visiting this exhibition, it's "Kiss on the Shore by Moonlight" 1914.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1QrXW65P8AI/UHiEau9Ee8I/AAAAAAAAArI/mQMft38K2uc/s1600/munch002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1QrXW65P8AI/UHiEau9Ee8I/AAAAAAAAArI/mQMft38K2uc/s320/munch002.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
The main reason I love Munch is because his paintings are very emotive, they appeal to much more senses than just sight, simple faces of Munch's characters are so striking! You can hear his "Scream" screaming and you can feel the loneliness, the kisses, the jealousy and all the other emotions he portrayed in his paintings, here are my favorite ones exhibited in Tate Modern:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jpR6Rtrmw2k/UHiHjYdL0nI/AAAAAAAAArw/NB-y5lDgs0s/s1600/tumblr_lwlwuu6uUl1qk0go1o1_400.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="232" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jpR6Rtrmw2k/UHiHjYdL0nI/AAAAAAAAArw/NB-y5lDgs0s/s320/tumblr_lwlwuu6uUl1qk0go1o1_400.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

And of course this self-portrait. If you stand right in front of it and stare you can see Munch's head growing out of your body in the reflection.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-y4O8StF1X0Y/UHiLgraQGaI/AAAAAAAAAsg/I2mFPlqt7H4/s1600/125045327124842853_hEGMojjG_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-y4O8StF1X0Y/UHiLgraQGaI/AAAAAAAAAsg/I2mFPlqt7H4/s320/125045327124842853_hEGMojjG_c.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My dream is to go to Oslo to see the "Scream" and many other paintings but this exhibition is pretty good overall, so go see it while you still can!</div>

So here's a video of me performing "Lullaby" at the "Lyrical Beats: Celebrating 5 years of <a href="http://www.rhythmandmuse.org/" target="_blank">Rhythm & Muse</a>" anthology launch. The way I filmed it is crap to be honest but after all it's sound that matters.

"Lullaby" is published on page 60 and the anthology is available on amazon. It features almost 60 poets and has some true pearls in it, really, I'm half way through reading it myself and that's the best poetry collection I've ever seen.<br />

As I moved to Vauxhall which is pretty close to both Tate Modern and Britain I finally got myself a Tate membership + guest and the first thing to do after that was to of course take my mum who was visiting me to the Pre-Raphaelites exhibition.
I was surprised that it was pretty big with many paintings brought from the US, usually I don't find temporary exhibitions to be that big and varied.
There are about 7 rooms I think but my absolute favorite is the Beauty room. Actually I talked about Pre-Raphaelites quite a lot <a href="http://www.solfeggiette.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/ophelia.html">HERE</a> and it happened so that I saw the place where "Ophelia" supposedly was painted before I actually saw the real painting.
So I won't say much more, just do go see it, it is interesting, diverse and very beautiful.
I also got myself a "Lady Lilith" print which is now up on my wall next to the mirror, but sadly I won't be using instagram for a couple of months now so I'll just show you the picture of the painting itself. I am now actually planning to collect prints of my fave paintings from exhibitions I visit and have them all over my walls.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">"I prefer using a serum that isn't made with silicone. This serum uses red seaweed extract to give the 'slip' and shine of silicone without the build up. Serum works by adding shine and protecting hair from the elements but many people make the mistake of using too much which can make the hair feel oily. Use a small amount; you can always add more. I've added in provitamin B5 for condition, the antioxidant white tea to prevent damage and a sunscreen".<br />- James Brown</span></div>

Today I'm going to show a little of Brijuni Islands. In the past few years they became extremely popular, the hotel is fully booked many months in advance and I mean look at this yacht, but you can always go to the main island for a day on a boat from Fazana.</div>

The main island was Tito's residence for many years, I actually went there to do some research about four years ago when I was writing my IB history coursework. So one of the main attractions there is the safari-type zoo with animals that were brought to Tito by other famous historical figures, for example an elephant brought by Indira Gandhi. Though as you can see I enjoyed donkeys the most :)</div>

And this is Tito's personal car I totally fell in love with, in fact you can even rent it to drive around the island but I think it costs a fortune and I would be dead scared of breaking it as it is pretty old, though it looks perfect.</div>

Croatian wine is not as well-known and popular as for example Italian wine but as I already mentioned Istria is somewhat little Croatian Italy and wine produced there is quite worth spending a day tasting it. We visited <a href="http://veralda.hr/" target="_blank">Veralda</a> wine estate in Verteneglio, where they also produce olive oil and prsut (Istrian prosciutto) and oh my god their new sparkling rose!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.roxanich.hr/" target="_blank">Roxanich</a> winery that is famous for storing their wine for at least five years before bottling it and </div>

<a href="http://www.benvenutivina.com/en/vina.html" target="_blank">Benvenuti</a> nearby Motovun which, in my opinion, has some of the best desert wines ever. </div>

So my week in Croatia came to an end and I am going to share some photos with you, there are many more but I will be posting one city a day and this time it will be Rovinj:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-usCnr5r8DCI/UFDtKOek6hI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/25l3T_ouWtI/s1600/croatia6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="263" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-usCnr5r8DCI/UFDtKOek6hI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/25l3T_ouWtI/s400/croatia6.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
That's the Hotel Monte Mulini. It's considered to be the best hotel in Istria but to be honest I'm not a big fan of it (though as you can see it looks pretty impressive) and my advice would be to rent an apartment or something else with a more national feel to it, this kind of experience would be much more worth it.<br />
Ok, I'll confess - I got forever disappointed in Monte Mulini when they served me Irish coffee in a cappuccino cup, it's just not the way it should be anywhere and especially in a five star hotel.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Streets of Rovinj, they have a very Italian feel to them as Istria did belong to Italy for quite a while and is generally the closest part of Croatia to it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QVskq0ouN-Y/UFDs9QzBK3I/AAAAAAAAAes/-5T6bnwisSU/s1600/croatia12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="263" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QVskq0ouN-Y/UFDs9QzBK3I/AAAAAAAAAes/-5T6bnwisSU/s400/croatia12.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A beautiful, beautiful champagne bar by the sea, if you'll ever go to Rovinj do try to find it, is rather up, on the way to the church. They also have a stunning terrace but I think they are always pretty full so make reservations.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PDfLrPlefng/UFDtAAdXcII/AAAAAAAAAe0/-tVhoBNLXWA/s1600/croatia31.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PDfLrPlefng/UFDtAAdXcII/AAAAAAAAAe0/-tVhoBNLXWA/s320/croatia31.jpg" width="211" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-C8giWpTHCDo/UFDtDYvGqLI/AAAAAAAAAe8/K47jh5-mQvg/s1600/croatia34.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-C8giWpTHCDo/UFDtDYvGqLI/AAAAAAAAAe8/K47jh5-mQvg/s320/croatia34.jpg" width="211" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Also there are many little galleries, some of them have very traditional art, many sell naive art but you can also find something quite creative and modern, just keep your eyes open ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am very excited to announce that one of my favorite poetry gigs, <a href="http://www.rhythmandmuse.org/" target="_blank">Rhythm & Muse</a>, will be celebrating its 5th birthday on September 27th in Ram Jam Club Kingston and will be launching an anthology "Lyrical Beats" which includes one of my works called "Lullaby". I will be performing and probably recording it but you are more than welcome to come, seriously, I find that that's the coziest and probably the most diverse poetry gig.</div>

So right now I'm in Croatia and I'll bring back tons of pictures of me and by me, but for now, as promised, a little introduction of one of my favorite Estonian clothing brands - <a href="http://www.marimofashion.com/" target="_blank">Marimo fashion</a>.<br />
<br />
First of all I love independent clothing designers from small countries like Estonia as obviously no one in UK know them and I always get complimented on the originality of my clothing and asked where do I get all that. Seriously, it's so much easier to stand out when you shop somewhere only you know :)<br />
<br />
I fell in love with Marimo designs about two years ago when I bought a superb dress at a local original clothing fare. Since then the brand has really grown, so a couple of weeks ago I went to see the presentation of 2012/2013 pre-colletion and the opening of photo exhibition by Arno Mikkor that was styled by Marimo. Here's a picture of me wearing the actual dress (I don't like myself here and you can't really see the dress but that's all I found):<br />

Below you can find two videos behind the scenes of the shootings and if you want to see more pictures from the event just <a href="http://blog.marimofashion.com/2012/08/naituse-once-upon-a-time-avamine/#respond" target="_blank">click here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am also very exited about going to see the fashion show of fall-winter 2012/2013 by Marimo soon and showing you photos and/or videos by me (not taking my camera this time was a mistake) so stay tuned.</div>

It's time to talk about one of my favorite places to eat at in London. I would even say my absolute favorite - The <a href="http://www.thegrandbazaar.co.uk/" target="_blank">Grand Bazaar</a> on James Street (Bond street station).<br />

It's small and incredibly cozy, it has colorful lanterns all over the ceiling and they look absolutely beautiful. I find it very stylish for a small place like that and feeling cozy and comfortable in the interior is always a great deal for me.</div>

Glass of white Turkish wine is an absolute must there. Well, you could go for red too, just make sure you take the home wine, it's just that I prefer white. And grilled Cyprus cheese! Oh my God, I can sell my soul for it :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Other food is also delicious and the portions are huge! I'd recommend lamb in yoghurt or chicken shish, also balloon bread and hummus but seriously, there's a risk of eating three days in advance.</div>

Since I was very busy all this time in Tallinn and also I couldn't really find a photographer I'd like to try working with I decided to post some old pics.<br />
So that was about a couple of years ago and as you can see my hair was atomic red back then. That's because you should NEVER EVER use a brand you are not sure about for coloring your hair. Needless to say it killed my hair, from then on it's L'oreal only for me, even though I think the experience was quite interesting. I then got darker hair, like red wood, and had it for about a year and then got sick of it and went back to my usual ginger which I had been about three years before that and now am not planning to change, as coming out of the dark red was quite challenging and after all nothing suits me like ginger.<br />

Last Saturday I went to the Lady Gaga concert. To be honest I'm not a huge fan of hers, like I like her music in clubs but that's about it. Besides I'm not a fan of going to concerts (weird I know) but I'm a bit of a sociopath and I don't quite get the pleasure of thousands of people being crazy about someone who has no idea they exist. So if the concert would be in London I wouldn't go, but since it was in my home town Tallinn and we rarely get shows like that here I thought why not.<br />
<br />
First of all we do have one of the most amazing concert fields in the world I think, the acoustics is crazy, well, think about how it sounds in something like that, it's even called "the Singing Field":<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was surprised but I actually quite liked the band that played before Gaga, called The Darkness, check it out:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
(the video's not mine)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Then we had about half an hour of classical music playing before Gaga finally came out, I found it kinda cool and cultural and enjoyed it.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And finally there Gaga was. We had quite cool spots right in front of the catwalk or whatever it was so when she came up there we saw her very close, thought the monster pit might be a little to much for us (I actually went with my mum!) so yeah, we made just the right choice.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Obviously the show was great and I enjoyed it, so I say it's worth seeing, but the absolutely best moment was this:</div>

This was just BEAUTIFUL and I'm amazingly proud that that's how Estonia welcomed Lady Gaga.</div>

Hey guys, I am in my hometown, Tallinn, now and I have lots happening, changing etc. and not much time to write here. But I have some news!<br />
<br />
1. I decided to extend the <a href="http://solfeggiette.blogspot.com/2012/07/giveaway-winner-announced-new-giveaway.html" target="_blank">benefit giveaway</a> I announced a month ago for one more month, as I will remain in Tallinn till the middle of September and you can't buy benefit cosmetics here :( So you can still <a href="http://solfeggiette.blogspot.com/2012/07/giveaway-winner-announced-new-giveaway.html" target="_blank">enter</a> for another month, the deadline now is 19th of September.<br />
<br />
2. I will be posting a big introduction of Estonian fashion designers soon, make sure you don't miss it and stay tuned! I might even do it by parts but believe me, you will be surprised!<br />
<br />
And an old photo of me in mango fur to attract attention:<br />

I love cooking because for me it is a very creative process. I love mixing ingredients, creating something new, developing my signature dishes - cooking simple ordinary food is not for me. Today I am going to share with you my ultimate cooking secret. Whenever you feel like being incredibly creative with what you cook or are incredibly lazy and don't feel like paying the grocery store a visit you should cook <b>home made paella</b>. The greatest thing about it is that it only has <b>3 compulsory ingredients:</b><br />
<b>*Rice</b><br />
<b>*Tomato paste</b><br />
<b>*Spices</b><br />
All the other ingredients are open to imagination. This is an example of what I add:<br />
<i>*Minced meat</i><br />
<i>*Carrots</i><br />
<i>*Tomatoes</i><br />
<i>*Corn</i><br />
<i>*Garlic</i><br />
<i>*Eggs</i><br />
<i>*Lemon juice</i><br />
But you can add anything! Any meat and/or seafood, any vegetables, you can try adding any cheese, any spices, even fruits. The top level would be trying adding any other sauce along with the tomato paste. I definitely want to try cooking paella with chicken, pineapples, mushrooms and cheese, maybe with a creamier sauce. Also I would definitely try a seafood one, with prawns, mussels, tomatoes, rucola and whatever else will come to my mind while cooking.<br />
<br />
So all you have to do is to cook the rice, get a huge pan, fry everything you want, the more the better, but all the ingredients have to work well together, add a lot of tomato paste and spices and mix it all with rice. Voila!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
P.S. Also what I like about it is that it's light and it can be adjusted to your personal preferences or the preferences of your guests. And it's an independent dish, so doesn't take much time and is all in one.</div>

I don't follow any events in particular, I just watch the Olympics whenever I feel like it and I have time. I was watching male discus and high jump and gymnastics and a little bit of this and that.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>3. Why did you start blogging?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>4. If you were a biscuit what would you be and why?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>5. Must have beauty product?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>10. Item I can't live without is...</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I can live without anything, just not everything at the same time.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>11. Favorite season of the year and why?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Spring or autumn. I just like it when it's 20 degrees and dry, as long as it's this way I'm fine with every season.</div>

What's up guys? Sorry I disappeared again, I promise that now I'll be posting more-less every day, as I have a lot to share with you.<br />
<br />
I am quite obsessed with Shakespeare's Ophelia and anything else she inspired, for example and amazing post-modern drama by Heiner Muller "Hamletmachine":<br />
<i>I am Ophelia. The one the river didn’t keep. The woman dangling from the rope. The woman with her arteries cut open. The woman with the overdose. SNOW ON HER LIPS. The woman with her head in the gas-stove. Yesterday I stopped killing myself. I’m alone with my breasts, my thighs, my womb. I smash the tools of my captivity, the chair, the table, the bed. I destroy the battlefield that was my home. I fling open the doors so the wind gets in and the scream of the world. I smash the window. With my bleeding hands I tear the photos of the men I loved who used me on the bed on the table on the chair on the ground. I set fire to my prison. I throw my clothes into the fire. I wrench the clock that was my heart out of my breast. I walk into the streets clothed in my blood. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Also I love the parallel with Ophelia in Lars von Trier's "Melancholia".<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-z24mYGkNcgw/UCUOYVHrZ8I/AAAAAAAAAY4/W1HTGw4Jj-8/s1600/Melancholia_409_photo_by_Christian_Geisnaes_large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-z24mYGkNcgw/UCUOYVHrZ8I/AAAAAAAAAY4/W1HTGw4Jj-8/s320/Melancholia_409_photo_by_Christian_Geisnaes_large.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
And of course one of the most famous interpretations of Ophelia is the painting by John Everett Millais currently up in Tate Britain:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EvqO-ak-umg/UCUOnmqBHBI/AAAAAAAAAZE/PdW9FiVMdAY/s1600/800px-John_Everett_Millais_-_Ophelia_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EvqO-ak-umg/UCUOnmqBHBI/AAAAAAAAAZE/PdW9FiVMdAY/s320/800px-John_Everett_Millais_-_Ophelia_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
This is one of my favorite paintings ever and I know a lot about it's history and the model Elizabeth Siddal. She was married to one of the pre-raphaelite poets and painters Dante Gabriel Rossetti. She was madly in love with him while he picked her mostly because she was probably the most popular model among pre-raphaelite circle and he wanted to have her and her beauty, yet remained very egocentric throughout their relationship. For Millais's "Ophelia" Elizabeth was posing in a bathtub for hours and got very ill, she seemed to recover later, yet her health got worse and worse overtime and she died aged 32. Rossetti wrote her a collection of poems and put them in her grave, yet later on he regretted this decision as thought that those poems were destined to make him famous and dug them out of the grave. Needless to say he regretted that decision too and guilt haunted him till the rest of his life.<br />
<br />
Now why am I writing all this? Being familiar with the history of the painting I realized, that it is claimed that the landscape for Millais's "Ophelia" was painted quite close to Kingston so I decided to find this place before I move to Greater London. Overall it took me 2 days and about six hours! Seriously, it was incredibly difficult to find. First day I took the wrong bus and ended up in Esher, so I just took a picture of a local church:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FEgZYTec1R4/UCUO1h788YI/AAAAAAAAAZM/KNDyUyxGo88/s1600/church.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FEgZYTec1R4/UCUO1h788YI/AAAAAAAAAZM/KNDyUyxGo88/s320/church.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
So the next day I was walking around Old Malden for hours before I actually found a huge meadow (it was a little dark already) I completely fell in love it, it could be perfect for a getaway on your own or a romantic picnic, I totally see why Millais was painting there.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NzwZuTriXHU/UCUPGRI09eI/AAAAAAAAAZU/52WtBj4ZY64/s1600/meadow.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NzwZuTriXHU/UCUPGRI09eI/AAAAAAAAAZU/52WtBj4ZY64/s320/meadow.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
The meadow is surrounded by Hogsmill river which is the river on the painting (Found it!). Looks similar, huh?<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-otAuWccwc-k/UCUPSIGLMjI/AAAAAAAAAZc/QZu5APsU0VM/s1600/ophelia.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-otAuWccwc-k/UCUPSIGLMjI/AAAAAAAAAZc/QZu5APsU0VM/s320/ophelia.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
If you want to find this place you need to go to Old Malden, I would suggest Malden Manor train station. Then you should follow Church Road until you reach an entrance into the woods. Then you cross the river and voila - there's the meadow.</div>Solfeggiettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10710314626694120422noreply@blogger.com0Олд Малден, Worcester Park, Большой Лондон KT4, Великобритания51.384967 -0.25290851.375057500000004 -0.27264900000000003 51.3948765 -0.233167tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686137376742527277.post-66987483349152281212012-08-03T17:12:00.000+01:002012-08-03T17:14:01.815+01:00Masquerade Madness<!--BEGIN HYPE WIDGET--><script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script src="http://lookbook.nu/look/widget/3832831.js?include=all&size=medium&style=button&align=center"></script><div id="hype_container_3832831"></div><!--END HYPE WIDGET-->

Quite a while ago I participated in a photoshoot by <a href="http://www.alinasofia.com/" target="_blank">Alina Sofia</a> and had my make up done by a wonderful, wonderful MUA <a href="http://www.facebook.com/NancyLopezMua" target="_blank">Nancy Lopez</a>. Make sure you check them out, Alina is currently based in Berlin and Nancy is working in London.<br />
Another thing I'd like to introduce is my favorite blouse ever, one of the most original clothing items in my closet, which was made by very talented designers from Kiev, check them out <a href="http://www.z-v.com.ua/" target="_blank">here</a>. I usually wear it tucked in all sorts of high-waisted skirts so I can wear nothing underneath but a suitable bra.<br />
Closer make up (Nancy is oh-so-amazing!)<br />

Hey guys, I know I kinda disappeared, I was very busy moving from Kingston to Vauxhall and the internet at my new flat is pretty dodgy too. I have A LOT to write about, but for now I'll just tell you a little story about how I was moving.<br />
<br />
To be honest, even though I usually fly somewhere up to eight times a month, I hate packing and it stresses me a lot, so this time was especially painful, as I had to pack EVERYTHING. I still managed to forget a couple of things, but mostly household items, so not a big deal. But this is what my old room looked like while I was packing, crazy, right?<br />

This is my best travel buddy! Ok, actually I only had it with me in India, China and Tanzania, but this is the best thing ever for moving, you can fit like everything in there, it's almost endless. That's probably the best thing I ever got out of college.</div>

Now that's my new flat. I think the mirror is quite stylish and I find it more comfortable to use this one rather than using the one in the bathroom, so you can see all sorts of lotions and make up there. I have to figure something out with that as it doesn't look very pretty, but can't help how comfortable this is. And then some books below, should sort them out really, can't believe I bought so many during less than a year in the UK.<br />

So there's the sofa and the kitchen. This is a sofa-bed but I don't open it usually as I don't need much space for sleeping. I had a huge double bad in my previous room and it became a horrible mess, it had like everything on it, clothes, gadgets, books, boxes, just because I really don't need all this space for sleeping. It kinda concerns me that I might damage the sofa while cooking so maybe I'll consider moving it.</div>

The bathroom. I've been dreaming about living in a place with a bathtub for soooo long! I can take bath like twice a week or even more often, I just love it, plus it's much more comfortable to do all sorts of masks this way.</div>

Here's a small dining table and the only window in the whole flat, which is also the balcony door. It's not like I need much light anyways, I enjoy it this way.<br />

That's the view from the balcony. Yes, it it the River Thames! Though what this picture doesn't show is the fact that there are some building works going on right below and the road is there too. So it's always-always noisy, which kinda sucks, but on the other hand I got used to it pretty quickly so I don't really mind, though I wouldn't spend much time on the balcony either unless I'd feel like watching cars.<br />

There are a couple of cafes right next to the house, wouldn't say these are great, but some decent English food can be found there.<br />

I've been very busy lately, I've moved from Kingston to Vauxhall now and it took me like four days so I'm super happy it's done. I might show you a couple of pics of my new flat once it's all cozy but for now there's something else. My photographic exhibition "London in Motion" is now over so now I can show you little previews (or now "afterviews":)) of what was up there.<br />

So I had this quick lookbook shoot some days ago and I didn't feel like posting those here because to be honest I'm not a big fan of those pics (and that's not the photographer, I feel like it's me, wasn't in the mood + the weather and the rush) but the weather is getting nicer and I really like this outfit, so since I won't be able to shoot it anytime soon there you go.<br />

I totally understand why maxi-skirts are so popular! This one is my everyday one, I even travel in it (not wearing killer-heels obviously), it works well with any sorts of shoes, it's super-comfortable for streets, beaches, meetings, dates, oh whatever, a long skirt makes everything better!</div>

The leather jacket from Max&Co is my absolute love right now, the color is gorgeous, it's edgy, and it's not like I have a lot of really edgy items in my closet, I usually go for chic and elegance, but I love showing a little of my rock'n'roll side with this jacket. And actually it works really well with wayfarers.<br />
