Three stripe craziness

I know, it is everywhere. But I will be just a little more proud and will say I had it before it happened. Although, it was not considered as a good taste back then, more of a wanna fight? taste. 

It started from a simple laptop case.

It went to the velvet (I know).

To more colors.

Here is a British one (that I am very proud of, don't know why, though).

And a bunch of T-shirts that hipsters wear now. I wear them out of commodity and a secret passion for logos. 

Hello, winter

December kicked in with frost and lots of snow (and I'm in love). Well, isn't that how it's supposed to be? Plus, big grandma knit sweaters and endless walks in nature hearing the snow squeaking under the winter boots.

 

PERFECT inspiration

Autumn picks that I wanted to share this very first gray day. I like it. More time to go to the movies, theaters, exhibitions, concerts, etc. 

PERFECT- will join the perfection club at the office- there is one colleague who is wearing AWESOME T-shirt. 

Had to share this beautiful be-au-ti-ful Rick Owens design book. It has got some interesting and inspiring interviews with him along with the photos of his style. It's not only in English,- French, Spanish, German languages available too. And it's from Taschen- my favorite art publisher. Enjoy the little pieces of it below.

Oh yes, plastic is trendy now. Couldn't resist to this gorgeous Mango handbag. 

Berlin Calling

It was the perfect ending to the summer. A long weekend in Berlin seeing my friend and him, yes, him. Liam. My favorite phrase now: my life is pretty much complete.

Lollapalooza 2018 Berlin. The place where we went to see mr. Gallagher. Tadam!

Gotta say, it was massive. The whole event took place in Olympiastadion Berlin, really impressive views- check it out below.

After having a wonderful birthday time on Friday, I took a flight next day. This is how I found my gate:

Yes, Adidas sportswear says Pure Berlin. Although, I like the dude's with the shorts outfit. Punks not dead sort of style.

Of course, Lollapalooza crowds were the 3 white stripes, Doc Martens (why did I leave mine home?!), sports bra or just a simple bra (next time I ain't taking any clothes) type crowds. With a bit of a Coachella seasoning. Lots of fashion, but nothing that I have never seen before. Burning Man is in my still-to-do-on-this-planet list.

We had a Mediterranean summer weather. No clouds, no storms, only sun. And lots of Vogue's (UK September issue with the goddess Rihanna, too!) in the beautiful Berlin home of the friend of mine. Was well surprised that you can find a piece of Paris/Lisbon in Berlin. Something different from the grey city architecture.

New Year, New Purse

When experiencing life changes, leave everything behind and buy yourself a new purse. Vintage one. That's why I love Vilnius; it has so many vintage stores, literally vintage. At a price level as well. Grab a couple of spare euros and have a blast. 

Enjoy:

Fashion in the air

Kunsthal Rotterdam is hosting an exhibition of the outfits of the cabin crews from all over the world starting 60s.

The collection is owned by the Dutch collector Cliff Muskiet. An inspiring exhibition with wonderful pieces designed by Yves Saint Laurent, Cristobal Balenciaga, Christian Dior and others. From the very elegant and chic costumes to the ones with every possible mash up of the colors, prints and even futuristic elements. Enjoy!

Futuristic outfits

Pierre Balmain for SIngapore Airlines - my favorite!

Christian Dior for Scandinavian Airlines

Dia dhui, Éireann

A very spontaneous trip to Dublin this beginning of autumn marked a check on my visited countries list but also got my passion for the store/building fronts unrevealed. 

A famous Temple Bar: love how the entire front of the bar is full of different old format logos, flowers hanging and tourists messing (me, as well) around it. It was difficult to catch the photo without any single person in it.

The city is a one big castle. Buildings with all the little cute towers on top of it, decorated with the colorful flags like this one.

Orange bricks everywhere 

unless you want to get a pink or a blue boutique.

Or a pink door to sweeten a rainy morning.

And a green one to match the entire country's color.

About the doors: this street. Instead of a house number, the color of the door can be used as well.

Although the city can show off as a medieval one, when wandering around, found this very eighties or something back then, around that time FLY 747 logo. One of my favorites; it sticks very well with the rest of the neighborhood.

On the way to the Guinness brewery, found Oscar Wilde's fancy shmancy house/apartment, you call it.

The Liberty Market was one of the pearls on the way. I really like the logo. Once I have my own store - this goes on the wall as well.

Yes, they are right: everything under one roof. I don't know how I resisted to purchase a shiny Gucci bag for 15 eur. Couldn't take a picture either, wouldn't dare in front of tough looking Irish ladies. But I am glad they let me in this very local market with their own rules.

Also passed by this cute little house. Again red color, it seems to be an essential for this city.

More and more colors: restaurant (closed forever, I guess) with this wonderful street light made from a colorful glass. How old would it be?

And no, I have never reached the Guinness brewery. Wasn't upset though, reviews say it is not that impressive, especially for one who is not a fan of the beer.

A place to remember was this cozy pub in the mountain village Avoca where I had a traditional Irish beef stew and few loud laughs with local people. Only laughs, because couldn't understand a word. Accent is less strong in Dublin.

And a teeny-tiny gift shop.
