Sweater Weather

Mmm looking at the weather forecast, i see temperature drooping, sun hiding behind the clouds and and few drops coming up, and i know what it means! Warm, sunny-smiley weather is going away and rainy days are coming! Am i sad? well a bit.. I love being outside, i love going to places and not taking any jackets with me, i like when my feet are in sandals, i like that freshness in the shades and that soft feeling of sun when you step out (obviously, till the certain point, until it starts burning and you turn a red lobster, or a tomato, depends on how you call it :) ) Autumn has its own sides and aspects that i like, all tho i think it makes me more thinkable, more calm and less talkative and way more concentrated about school! I specially love those days, when it rains a little, then sun comes up and that freshness, and maybe some little rain but it doesn't bother me! Few drops on my skin, sun and warm temperature makes me a little child, with rainy boots on, jumping into puddles! Yes i do that.. 

All thought the closer it gets to winter the more annoying it becomes, since i don't have a wide range of sweaters it will be a little repetitive, but great variation in jeans will help hihi. Autumn makes us cozier, we choose to stay home and invite friends over, watch movies and popcorn, stay by the fire, play games or something movie like which actually happens! You can  make it happen yourself and thats #1 in my to do list for this autumn (oh yeah, i do to do lists for everything! for every day, month, year, turn, holidays! helps me stay organized and don't forget anything)! This autumn, I'm buying sh*t many board games, movies (cos all my collection of movies are in russian:/) and all the weekends, we have less things to do, we'll chill together and enjoy the coziness of this amazing season! Unfortunately moving from Moscow to Portugal, would mean leaving behind huge amounts of colors, the street colors! Every neighborhood would be filled up with green, huge and wide trees in summer which would the turn gold, red and orange in autumn, falling into fresh-collected piles of dry leaves or stopping on them with my little booties, are the greatest memories of my childhood! Moving also meant leaving behind snow adventures, snow fights and snowmen! Here, theres now now but rain, hardcore rain… which i got used to actually! 

Regarding outfits, mmm my favorite color scheme, brown, burgundy, black, mustard as the traditional ones, but this season Im spending my funds on Cobalt and Royal blues, Greys and Aluminum colors, and to add some brightness Orchids and maybe fuchsia!  Also, colder weather means high boots, and comfy comfy timberlands!! How much i missed them! With the 'calçada roads' in my school, they are so comfortable to run around! (and since i always lose my bag or forget stuff i do that a lot)

So talking talking talking, here you have my wish list (or wish-grid) of sweaters and coats that are on my list!!!

1.   2.   3.   4.   5.   6.   7.   8.   9.   10.   11.   12.   13.   14.

Hope you liked it! Any comments, link with nice sweaters, ideas and advices or so, Comment them below

Not to empress you, but I'm a unicorn

Hello there! 

Relatively early morning, big-big breakfast, choosing my outfit and off to lunch with friends and do homework in very nice, calm place -> Casa da guia, in Cascais! The weather today is more than great, sunny and breezy! I'm actually feeling a bit skeptical about this 'doing homework with friends', because my experience shows you actually never get anything done, instead you sit there, talking for hours,a dn when you start working, something comes up in your head, like a story from maths class, or commenting on Spanish teachers that you forget about the work, all tho you're talking about the subject, you are not really working.. and then, in the end of the day, you get home, see the list of homework's… no ticks, just boxes and spend late night, with music and dim light doing the things you could've done with friends, outside on a sunny day. But in the end, it was worth it, seeing people, that are not particularly in the same school as you are, is so nice, you are ready to give up some healthy amount of sleep, just to feel the connection! And thats what important in friendship, no matter how many things you've got to do, no matter whats the weather, you make an effort and find a place, things to do, and you go! 

So for this meet up, 'with homework' I'm dressed in my lovely MissGuided Dress, LOVE! the color! Doesn't it look great with blond hair (all tho you can't see it well..:) and my sara bootiess!

I chose to add something different to this photoshoot, is my Unicorn head from Urban Outfitters! Isn't it cool? I can't find an excuse to wear it, and i bought it for some time already! So yes, this swing dress so flowey and fairy like, made me remember of this head, laying in the back of my closet, with think layer of dust which finally found its use, the moment of happiness and light on a sunday morning like this one! 

Hope you like the dress, the photos and if any comments, leave them below, will be happy to read them and answer!

¡¿Donut bother me?!

Hello hello hello!

What i was scared about the most, had happened.. me not having the time to do anything but school, school and… school:/ as i've posted in Facebook, i spent my entire weekend hardworking and being totally antisocial to get some free time and less homework's, so i could take some pictures of my favorite outfits of the week and write to you my favorite followers and dear visitors (which i hope will become followers hihii) It's been 4 weeks, 1 month of being an IB student, and guess what? i need holidays. i need summer. and i need time, like how about one more day in a week? one more saturday? I was also gonna start gym and while the weather is so great meet some friends, stay outside with M instead of being locked at home while its raining, but no! All the teachers decided to give me short deadlines, 1000 words essay on topics i don't even understand:/ why can't they asses my language, linguistic features through my blog? ahahha I'd have 7s.. or not :/ 

Well, the day i used this outfit, my dear M decided to cheer me up after school, (after seeing me in this shirt) and take me to Starbucks eat some donutsss! How much i love them! Sadly, we don't have donkin' donuts in Portugal.. I'd be their loyal constant consumer, 24/7!I'm such a fatty… haha well I'm happy, thats what matters! :) 

Oh, the jeans!! So basically, they are my grandmas, from her long-time-ago teenage years! I think I've never seen jeans that are so old, so fashionable, so good quality and in such a good state! My jeans, die after what, 1-2 years? even less.. what happened to the quality of clothes? They are Levi's original mom jeans, she bought them somewhere in europe and she said they were relatively cheap comparing to the prices now, so.. wait a second, the quality goes down, prices go up??? I always wanted this type of jeans, and when she saw me shopping in Urban Outfitters, buying jeans for 70$, (thank god she saw me!!!) and told me to wait till she comes next time and she'll give me! And so she did, and so you see me so happy wearing them almost every day!! YEY:) (Thank you granny, if you're reading this <3 )

Details? Easy Peasy, Top: Forever 21, Shoes?… simple white snickers god knows where i bought them:/  and backpack from Accessorize:) super cuttie! 

Hope you enjoy my original photos (my good camera broke:( so sad… gonna have to buy new one, but for now, playing with my lil babe GoPro :) 

Follow met everywhere:) 

P.S. Facebook page got hundreds of likes in such a short time!! Thank you guys <3 hope you spread the word about my blog <3

On the Artsy Side

Hey there!

Today, I'll be sharing with you my artsy side (and not only mine but my families as well), and not as but still some outfit details!

So today, it was the opening of my Grandma's Art Festival 'Vera' (link here)! It's been happening for 7 years already, all though only in Moscow, but this year they made it in Portugal! The seventh - lucky time - they decided to move into a different place and join all the cultures and traditions and make it very international festival and celebration of Art! It will be on in Cordoaria Nacional in Belem, Lisbon until 21 and then at night of the 21 you will be able to see me in Casino Estoril, Salao Preto e Prata (The Black and Silver Salon) wearing a gala dress for the awards ceremy of the festival! I'll be talking and translating stuff, so I'm inviting you too see me and enjoy the gallery for the rest of the week, any time you want! The festival, collected masters of their techniques and ideas from different countries! Hopefully, there will be more people coming in every day, so next year, they will do it again, just cos i LOVE those things! all though, it has to be MY will to go to a gallery, maybe do a transcription, take some pictures or just stare at pieces for the time i want, because if someone makes me go to an exhibition and do all those stuff, I'll become so demotivated and the only thing i'll be thinking about, is when this $#!T will finish:/ So this time, i took advantage of this Artsy side of my family, in making this festivel/exhibition and went to pleasure my deep passionate ME:) 

Since it was an opening (which we actually got late too, and didn't see my Granny cutting the red ribbon) i still had to wear something classy.. But then i though, this year, it's pretty small, so i'm not gonna 'waste' something WOW, if there not gonna be show it too, so i chose my very nice dress from Zara (wasn't hard to guess :) ) and my favorite booties (as always)! Looking : nice, elegant, girly and even casually dressed up! So i guess i've completed and ticked all the boxes in 'how you should get dressed for you grandma's festival opening!' *applause to me please*

I really hope you'll find some time, an hour or so to visit the gallery (all the infer is in their website - link above), and also join me in Casino in Estoril on the 21st! 

well now: #omw to do all the homeworks i left behind thinking miracle will happen and they will get done by themselves.. well no it didn't:/ So…

CHECK THE WEBSITE! GET YOU $#!T TOGETHER AND MOVE YOUR LASY ASSES FROM THE COMPUTER AND GO ENRICH YOUR INNER WORLD!
