Bohemian Dreams

Hello there! 

The summer is finally here! Today is the First of July and after spending June meeting the deadlines I'm excited to start living the life and also, counting 2 month until my 18th birthday! It will be dreamlike! yey! 

Meanwhile, I cant believe its been over 2 weeks that I haven't said anything.. I guess I've been having too much fun since school ended ahah! One of those fun things was going to Vilamoura to my friend's house for few days, before I start working! There is so much to tell i don't even know where to start! After waking up at 8 and spending 8 hours in school our regime changed to waking up at 11 and spending about 7 hours on the beach, going home, eating and going out! Sadly that paradise lasted for only 4 days but it was truly fun and I loved spending time with the True friends!  

Of course with such a busy schedule it was hard to find time to shoot all the outfits of day'n'night for you but I managed to shoot this look for you which is truly my favorite! Look at the photos, don't they just scream "Bohemian Goddess" ahah With the beautiful sunsets of Vilamoura the combination turned out truly magical! 

Im wearing a dress i bought last year in Quicksilver shop after my birthday but i never got to wear it 

:( So this was the premiere of it! Paired with the cliche boots i always wear - sorreyyyy I love them and they fit with everything!.. and Accessories were on point this look! Blue back from Zara, Purple sunglasses from Emblem Eyewear, Golden "Goddess crown" and boho tattoos from Mimi et Fonfon :) 

Enjoy the magic of the photos, comment and follow me with GFC (blue button! check web version not mobile to be able to see it!) 

Kisses! Enjoy your summer to the maximum!

Madrid Day 1 | Olive days

Hello my lovelies!!

Today I come to tell you all that this week my Strapless Blog celebrated 1 year!!!

I can't believe its been so long already! 365 days spent on thinking about you, my readers, visitors and followers! Today, I want to thank you all! For 1312 likes on my Facebook page, for 136 followers in Blogger, for 67 posts, for 47,000 views, 370 comments and all the support you've given me over this year with your kind messages, comments and even random complements on the streets, nightclubs and shopping centres! Its been amazing and Im not planning on ever giving up or stopping this hobby of mine, because of you! Thank you all again! 

These 3 weeks or so, Ive been having the hardest times of the scholar year - the exam season! As you might've read already, my Russian school exams happen in Russian school in Madrid, so once a week Id go there for 2 days. Spend my first day meeting the city, visiting places and next day have my exams in the morning and if theres a possibility shoot some things for you to share afterwards:) 

That day, after one of my exams, My new made friend and I walked till the Plaza del Colon where we found this weird structure where we shot these pics for you! If you truly know me, you should know or you can guess this outfit is fully from Zara! :) 

I'm glad to share my exams went moderately well,  and Im thrilled for summer: shoots in bikinis and on the beach, road trips and festivals, more collaborations and more of you joining the community of the blog followers! 

Enjoy the photos and once again, thank you all so much!

Papua Bikini

Hello Guys!

The month of June, of sun and beach, of warm and sleepless nights (wether its because you're partying or because its too hot to sleep) has come and its already the 8th! Even though i still have 3 weeks of school, deadlines to meet and more travelling to Madrid for my exams, I now have less stress and more time to enjoy myself, pool and my lovely bikini from Papua! Its been soooooo long since i received! Luckily, this weekend i got to go to my pool and shoot some pics wearing this white beauty, which sadly looks too white on my pale skin, but I'm feeling optimistic as soon I'll get tanned and it will look better :) yey! 

Enjoy the photos <3

MARVEL Friends

Hey hey hey!!! 

Hows everything, ladies and possibly gentlemen, on the other side of the screen? 

These days have been rough & tough.. Studying in school, studying at home, missing pointless lessons to study more in the library and going to the lessons, purely to clear the doubts of my own and not even follow the lesson topics! Its been 3 or 4 weeks since my isolation mode had turned on! M and I have been studying all the time putting everything on the second place! I wonder if our friends still remember about us haha. Well, this monday 25th we started the exams and I can assure you the relief and gratitude we have for spending those days studying while others spent them playing feels good! And i think we agree that it was totally worth it! 

Today, right now actually, I finished my exams in English school and tomorrow Im off to Madrid do exams for my Russian Diploma! Get ready for overload of posts :) hehe 

So one of those days of studying last week, after doing my trial exam in Russian school, I got to go for a Girlie lunch with my Mom near Expo, where we found this amazing wall, inspired by all the cartoon characters from Marvel, Pixar and others! Thank God I had my camera with me! And as you can see it was a true luck this happened! I just love those moments! 

Im wearing a Zara jacket, simple white top and jeans! Nothing special but with bright colour of the jacket and matching colour of my fav Mike Wasowski from the Monsters Inc. we worked well together and photos came out amazing! Lightened my mood straight away all thou the shoot had to be very quick because i had to continue studying and every 30 min or 1 hour that i lose on enjoying nature, setting, outfits and food is "an opportunity cost "- basically the cost to me of not learning that piece of material at that time which i spent relaxing could turn out to be a question material i won't be able to respond in the exam, you see what i mean? Anyways, now i can relax as Ive done it all, and Im confident Ive done it well! So now, no worries, no stress! Peace and love haha 

For now, enjoy the photos! 

Im going to get myself some chocolate and loud music to celebrate this! yet :)

Warm days are hereeee!

Hey Heyy,

How you feeling? Sadly, my parents seem to forget i have 2 schools and 2 sets of exams in the same dates and i have less than 1 week to get ready for both, and decide to go for brunches with other families and friends, enjoying the views and posh conversation.. When parents - mostly dads show off their kids and their extra curriculars or speak in a weird language of business, women brag about their female stuff, all though i confess, my mother is nothing like me - no shopping addict; and kids run around restaurant.. and then theres me - reading book reviews or maths videos, taking advantage of every free moment to catch as much as i can before my exams but yet, thinking about my dear followers, you guys, and one of those free moments i ran to take these photos!

I also took time to take the photos of delicious meal in Farol Design Hotel! This time it was the Mix Restaurant! The best part of the meal was obviously the dessert! Whenever you go there, you can show them my photos and they make the same for you :) <3 

That day was sunny but windy, so a jumpsuit was perfect, with a sweater for breeze minutes, which would make me freeze so much! I mean Im russian how can i be cold in 28 degrees or so?! Jumpsuit is from Forever 21, from last September and the sweater form H&M - long time ago! 

Hope you enjoy the photos, and good luck for your exams if you have them, if not - dont say anything ill get super jealous ahah

Soup made of peas :)

Meaaat!

Dessert: Caramel syrop on top, cupcake shaped biscuit with condensed milk inside! 

Relaaaaxing :)
