A brief history of: Fringe | Краткая история: Бахрома

Photo via thechive.com
Over the past few years fringe has gained the status of the main unseasonal trend. During the summer we wear skirts and dresses with fringe hemline and in winter - elegant boots and bags with fringe. But many people do not even realize that fringe dates back to the days of the Native Americans.

Days are getting shorter and my energy level drops to zero. Sometimes a delicious latte can help to cope with the drowsiness,

Grey on grey


I realy like monochromatic looks, especially grey ones. Despite the fact that it's subdued, grey color makes the whole outfit look elegant and put together and it looks equally good in any situation.

Beanie and faux fur


When I was little, I didn't like beanies. I thought they looked ridiculous and ugly but I continued to wear them because you just can't survive Ukrainian winter without a headwear.

Autumn browns


As for me, brown color is perfect for autumn. Among the bright colored trees and fallen leaves it looks cozy and warm.

Many people believe that during the cold season sunglasses are not needed. But in the fall and winter the sun is shining as bright as in the summer.

Pop of yellow


I like basic and comfortable clothes, especially shirts and jeans. They are perfectly combined with each other and using different accessories and shoes they can be both casual and dressed up.

Young British singer and musician Shura started her musical career not so long ago, in 2011, but her songs are quite popular.

Printed jumpsuit


Another summery-autumn look from the warm September. Sometimesit happens to me (especially during cold months) that I don't I don't want to dress-up and I want to wrap myself in a blanket and walk in it everywhere - at the store, in the park, at work.

Stripes and velvet


While I am writing this text the real autumn weather has come. Cozy sweaters and coats are finally become relevant. But almost entire month of September was unusually warm and summery.

Music Friday: Glass Animals


This week I came across the song "Black Mambo" by the British band Glass Animals which I had never heard of.

Dress over pants


If you think that you have nothing to wear and you feel an urgent need to run to the store for new clothes, rethink your wardrobe again.

Heart shaped dress


Today I am publishing the last look from vacation. These photos were taken in Odessa, when me and Michael were leaving back to Kiev.

Belgorod-Dnestrovsky fortress


During our vacation in Zatoka the weather was not very summery. Sometimes the sun was hidden behind the clouds, forcing us to wear something on top of a bathing suit not to freeze on the beach.

September by the sea


A couple of weeks ago me and Michael went to the long-expected vacation. Recent months have been oversaturated with work, so we were so relieved when we finally got to the sea. We went to Zatoka, a small town near Odessa, Ukraine.

Music Friday: Gus Gus



Last Friday I was on a Kiev show of the band from Iceland called Gus Gus. Despite the fact that the band exists for 20 years already, I’ve hooked up on them just a few months ago (thank you Michael for telling about them).

Flowy top


As I mentioned in my previous post, you can find really good clothing in a thrift store. And one of my latest finds was this flowy top from H&M.

Thrift shopping: pros and cons | Секонд-хенд: плюсы и минусы

photo via igatifashion
As you may have noticed, the half of my wardrobe consists of the things I bought in a thrift store or I got from my aunt. I like vintage clothes, clothes with history, clothes that are limited and it is almost impossible to see them on anyone else but you. That’s why I often go to the thrift stores and flea markets looking for something interesting and unique. Some of you have already asked me about my thrift store shopping experience, so I’ve decided to make a post about the pros and cons of that type of shopping.

I almost forgot to share with you the latest album of Brandon Flowers “The Desired Effect”, which was released back in May.

Every morning I start with a breakfast and with my favorite blogs. I read quite a lot of fashion blogs, they inspire me and help to relax and start the day on a positive vibe. Before, the entire process of reading blogs was quite complex, I was saving my favorite blogs in bookmarks and every morning I went to those sites in search of new posts.

Bold colors


During summer I'm craving bold colors the most. Bold colors and the comfort. That's why you will not see me on high heels, but in a skirt.

Music Friday: Florence + The Machine



Let’s spend this Friday together with lovely Florence. The third album of Florence and The Machine called “How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful”, which was released two months ago, is filled with emotional experiences and charming melodies.

Must-haves: Off the shoulder dress


Almost a third of the summer has already passed, however, it is not too late for the vacation near the sea. And don’t forget about the Indian summer in September. So I have started to plan my vacation and get ready to go somewhere to the south.

Bodeguita del Medio cuban party


14 июля я была приглашена на мастер-класс в мой любимый кубинский ресторан Bodeguita del Medio, который организовал Гастро Клуб. Мастер-класс провел шеф-повар ресторана, который приготовил традиционное кубинское блюдо tortillas de maiz (кукурузные оладьи).

This year is full of new music albums, and they all are released by my favorite music bands (last time I wrote about the Mumford and Sons). On the 2nd of October the new Editors album "In Dream" will be released.

The perfect mom jeans


While many people complain about the current "not summer" weather, I was very happy when it got colder outside and 30°C heat has gone. I really like the cool weather, like to wrap myself up in cozy sweaters and wear favorite jeans.

Fun and easy nail tutorial


When it comes to nails I prefer a classic manicure, and color is the only thing that changes. And I always do the manicure by myself, though I am not an expert in this area. But for some reason in the summer I'm starting to experiment doing the two-tone nail polish in various combinations.

Pastel shirt and white jeans


First summer month was chilly and rainy. And for another day did not seem too gloomy I opted for bright colors clothes and simple and comfortable classics:

Music Friday: Mumford and Sons



On the 4th of May was released a new album of the British band Mumford and Sons, "Wilder Mind". To say that I like it is to say nothing. I've been listening this album since the release and I'm still not bored.

Pyjama pants


Last weekend I wanted a maximum comfort for strolls around the melting from the heat city. And exactly on that day I found these pyjama pants about which I have forgotten.

Blogger party Ukraine: how it was


On the 3rd of June second Blogger party Ukraine took place. In a cozy Aroma Espresso Bar both new and already known Ukrainian bloggers have met. There were mainly beauty, food, travel and fashion bloggers at the event, who have listened interesting speeches of Daria Shapovalova, Anna K, Anna Serokurova, Nikolay Roginets, Olesya Yatsuk and Igor Bigdan.

Lace and stripes


In the summer heat I feel the most comfortable in breezy clothes made from natural materials, they "breath" and do not constrain moves. But when I want to dress up a little, instead of t-shirt and shorts, I wear this lace skirt instead which is really suitable for such weather.

Omelya Atelier opening press breakfast


Last Friday I was invited to press breakfast dedicated to the opening of the new Omelya showroom. I've been watching the brand for a long time and I was really glad to visit this bright and cute showroom.

Shopping point: Marka UA lounge store


Cultural and trendy life of Kiev is growing rapidly and the number of Ukrainian designers who create beautiful and high quality things is constantly growing. And I really like this tendency. Unlike the mass market, designer clothes are available in limited quantities which affects the individuality and originality of the look. The chances to meet someone in the same outfit as you are extremely small.

Studded bag and neutrals


I can't believe that it was gloomy and pretty cold just recently. In one of those cloudy days I've decided to wear incompatible, at first glance, clothes:

My wish list: online shopping on Choies

photo by Not Your Standard
With the advent of the online stores, I began to rarely visit city stores. There is something soothing in the process of online shopping: you can make some tea/coffee, make yourself comfortable at home and immerse yourself in the infinite world of clothing.

I didn't post my Music Friday for two weeks already - so it's time to correct my mistake. Especially when I've prepared for you something tasty :)

My Chișinău look


Recently me and Michael have travelled to Chișinău, Moldova to visit my relatives. And as we had to visit all my family in three days we didn't have time to take pictures of the city. So I will show you only my super comfy look

Shades of green


My experiments with looks are continuing. For my big surprise I wore these trousers on my recent stroll (and I didn't even plan to buy it).

Must-haves: Spring/summer shoes


I rarely wear heels, but since the real warmth came, I realized that I need a new pair of feminine and trendy shoes. Depending on the selected shoes, you can dress up or dress down the whole look.

Star Wars t-shirt


Confession: I love "Star Wars". And I love printed t-shirts. With this thematic t-shirt I decided to dress down the overall formal look: trousers, blazer and brogues.

Music Friday: ONUKA



So happened that I don't listen to Ukrainian or Russian-speaking artists. I grew up on British and American music and I prefer English lyrics in the songs (and also I think that foreign music has a higher quality).

"Retro cruise" festival


Last Sunday I've attended the "Retro cruise" festival which was held in Botanical garden. This day is a great opportunity to travel back in time and dip into the holiday with vintage clothes, retro music and interesting people around.

Casual plaid with ruffles


This no name plaid shirt is my find in a thrift store. I adore everything plaid, love the blue and green combination and love shirts - perfect for me. The only thing that I was concerning about this shirt were ruffles.

Little details have a big value


I really love simple and comfy clothes. But I also love to dress them up a little by adding different accessories and details, which make an outfit more interesting.

Music Friday: Harrison



This Friday I suggest to listen to something carefree, slightly dance and 80-s style. These are the tracks of the young Canadian producer named Harrison (who is, by the way, only 18 years old).

Almost total black


Spring clearly makes me experiment with clothing. This look is not quite usual for me. I never wore a bright pink lipstick before and there is almost no lace clothes in my wardrobe.

Music Friday: Rhye




Since I really love music and can not imagine my life without it, I decided to create a weekly column in my blog, where I will share with you my favorite tracks. Today I was listening the album "Woman" from the American duet Rhye and it was like a breath of fresh air.

Flowers and pastels


In the first warm Easter day-off I wanted to wear something delicate and spring. And I was surprised that I have found pastel earrings, pastel pink nail polish and a shirt with lilac flowers in my wardrobe

Comfy sea-blue sweater


Last weekend me and Michael went to Chernigov (it's Michael's hometown) and I chose comfy and simple look. Especially because the weather was not very nice (the sun quickly was replaced by rain with sleet and hail, yuck...).

Faux fur in spring


Recently the weather in Kiev went crazy - once it's raining, then the sun came out, then it's snowing and then it's all of the above. And though we may wanted to enjoy the warmth of the spring, all we can do is create coziness with the help of clothes.

Black & Grey


I love to make maximum use of all the clothes in my wardrobe. For example, I wear dresses also as skirts, by wearing a sweater or a sweatshirt on top of them. This allows to diversify looks and wear summer clothing during cold weather.

It's just a cosmic skirt


As I wrote earlier, I have some vintage clothes in my wardrobe, which are the inheritance from my aunt. But this velvet skirt was lying in my closet for a long time, up until recently, when I finally had time to bring it to an atelier for some minor adjustments.

Ukrainian Fashion Week: Podolyan fall-winter 2015/2016


This Friday I was lucky to visit the show of Ukrainian designer Vladimir Podolyan, where he showed his fall-winter 2015/2016 collection. I have recently discovered the brand Podolyan and I immediately liked it. Feminine silhouettes, interesting fabrics and laconic tailoring - this is all that I love.

Black on white on black on white


After a long illness, I finally was able to leave home last weekend and fully enjoy the spring weather. Soon we can take off heavy coats and wear light spring jackets and blazers.

Unexpected orange


I'm not one of those who often wears bright colors, I prefer calm and rich shades. But recently I've noticed that my wardrobe is starting to fill with bright clothes. And I like it :)

New York Fashion Week: Prabal Gurung


Prabal Gurung Fall 2015 ready-to-wear collection has combined exquisite fur, leather, chunky sweaters, Indian prints and stunning evening dresses. I really like the combination of winter parka and thin dress, such combinations of light and thick fabric favorably underline feminine silhouette.
