Golden people and Italian necklace

Alive-alive and double-triple alive!

I am again alive,as you see.And from now I will try to stay alive for long,I promise.

Actually,many things have changed and have been changing.
First of all,that is winter.
The temperature gets lower and lower from week to week and sometimes it falls down really rapidly so it even looks unexpectable for us! Now you can catch the feeling of real coming winter in the air.I should say that REAL winter with it's frost and dark nights is a really fascinating thing,whatever you think.
(Remembering the frost on my hair and on lushes in the last mornings.....;)

Secondly-and in the context of a fashion blog it is more important event than the last one-my new hand-made necklace:

MY GOLDEN HUMAN BEINGS

     I love this background!;)

These creations were originally invented by me very spontaneously in a minute of brainstorm and had waited for their "Fame Hour" for a few months.Finally,I have created this necklace.

I believe,that this one looks really funky and catchy and at the same time it doesn't look freaky or strange.This necklace is graceful,fashionable and looks pretty.

To conclude,such a necklace can give an accent and refresh your image so you can easily add it to your outfit.
A new design for a new season!:)


P.S.
You know,I am especially glad as it has turned out that I have fans!:)
And I am double-triple excited as one my great fan  from Italy,whose name is NINO,has been encouraged by my hand-made wooden necklace (Remember?)  and has created an analogue of it,but made of  pieces of broken branch (I should mention that it was a really excellent idea to use the materials which are available in his climatic region) and a piece of leather.
I guess,that is a really good stylish job.It looks exotic and really "warm" so it would be suitable to wear with summer outfits.

I guess,that the most pleasant thing is to understand that someone appreciates your job and shares with you with his one.This cooperation gives me a hope that I do everything right and correctly.
Grazie,Nino!:)

Alive

It reminds the real crime that I haven't posted anything for such long time.I guess,it is an absolute manifestation of bad behaviour.So,I should really try to atone my fault.I promise:).

This edgy photo was taken from one of the blogs at the LiveJournal blogservice.

Actually,the last days were really busy and nervous.Moreover,they were really COLD,as winter is coming closer and closer.

Meanwhile,I started thinking about pert mood more and more.Don't know why:may be because of age,may be because of holidays and freedom in the air:).But I am totally interested in edgy and NONformal now.

Hope,my vacations will be productive,including my blog activity ESPECIALLY.

By the way....Do you remember my hand-made wooden necklace? These days I am creating a male version(thanks to Nino:),so,soon you all will see my new creation.
Sorry for keeping long silence one more time.

A lesson about....

Autumn has already come.
And with usual things which come this time,as red and yellow coloured leaves or endless rains,one problematic point comes either....

"What shoud I wear?" - Many people wonder.And how do I understand them all!
When it becomes colder and winds become stronger and stronger a day after day it's really natural to start changing tastes,clothes and trends.

For the most of human beings autumn means the end of the rest and beginning of "official","heavy" workaday life.If you are a worker or a student this feeling touches you really powerfully.
And if you are a worker or a student,you have another problem:
"What should I wear for my classes,office?"

Yes,choosing a "uniform" can be really "a challenge" for everyone,who wants to stay "suitable", not losing his own "fashionability" at the same time.

And definitely this point inspired me to create a following "official" outfit:

                                    Either suitable,either comfortable,either bright and catchy.
                                    And nobody will say,that it doesn't look in an official way.

  The raisin of the image is in mixing prints.A checked skirt looks very "old-school" styled,a striped shirt gives a calm warm accent and a tie,worn as a cool bow,gives a wonderful colorful sound.

It looks very funky and self-made,as I strongly believe.

But if you are not independent in choices of your design,you can try another variant,which I
have called as a more feminine one:

A gentle sweater with an amazing feminine flower.

+ A hand-made (!!) draped skirt

+a little shoulderbag "a-la" Chanel

Who says,that it doesn't look suitable?

None!

Hope,that my examples of using colors-prints or gentle and girlish motives can be useful for you in your own outfits' organisation .

And remember,that autumn doesn't mean the end of stylish season.

Contrarely,all fashion is only starts  now,and your purpose is to catch it.



A fashion recycling.

Old - Kind.
In Russian it sounds more poetic : "Staroye-Dobroye".

Everything past and last always seem to be something beautiful and unattainable,something,which we can't return to nowadays. Usually it includes all our nostalgic thoughts and memories, all "our retro" moments,steps and stupid-carefree sounded words and phrases,which we wanted to change many times later.
Sometimes you can be distanted from this "old-kind" nostalgy for ages. Sometimes only for minutes - that's very personal. But in any cases and situations you will feel this "retro" life,which had been so much time ago,as it seems to be, just by getting to your last home, wearing your last uniform, even eating an apricot jam- you will remember your grandma's one. Nostalgy is a very strong and specific feeling.

Sorry,don't remember the author of it.

Fashion has its own "old- kind" nostalgy too. But if in each person's life nostalgy is a very private subject, in fashion this one is a nostalgy of all the world's common history and stories, of all common thoughts and people,of all commom memories. Fashion includes all our nostalgy in it. The difference is that we keep it as a top-secret, but fashion keep it as a global trend.

60s fashion

Coco Chanel

 60s fashion shoot.

Like these guys' style.
The Red Square.

A "recycling" of retro in the modern fashion .
Street Style.
Taken from an unknown blog.

A Russian Street Style,if I don't make a mistake.
There's some up-grated and recycled "old-kind" too.

 An outfit from the last Paris Fashion Week,a street style.
As for me,it's a perfect transformation from "an up-grated retro" to a modern "fashionable outfit with a retro spirit".
There's a big difference between two these terms.
Taken from www.lookatme.ru either.

Fashion shows  us  a perfect recycling of the global LAST.

60s

Not a secret,that any trend is a cyclical phenomenon.Let's call it "a fashionable recycling".

In several years an old and already forgotten trend can become alive and really popular among fashionistas again.

First of all,it regenerates among "street style" people,than it goes to
trend-hunters' lookbooks and then we totally can see this "recycled" fashion on the runway again.
Everything genius is really easy,as we can understand.

This afternoon I am really impressed by 60s fashion,which becomes really stylish and recognizable this season.

My mom's hand made jacket (such a cool and specific cloth! It looks very 60s styled), an old-school styled skirt,a simple white "alkashka" top,an orange belt and these calm beige shoes.

I guess,that two different prints and colors look together very interesting and catchy.

Moreover,60s styled design looks really juicy and self-made.

long live minimalistic heels and laces

I really enjoy these  sleeves-pouffe and vintage decoration of pockets and a collar.

So,Today I have a very 60s mood,as I think:).

Butterfly

This morning we caught a butterfly.

It looks really juicy.I like,that it has very big yellow-yellow bright wings.

It has very attractive appearance,as you can see.

Unusually, designers have found inspiration in these creations at the same time. And this season we can see plenty of trendy accessories and fashionable clothes, which have "butterfly" theme.

And I also remeber a Philip Treacy's famous "butterfly" hat:

By the way, some people have already tried to repeate such a masterpiece, but in "prêt-à-porter" interpretation.

Like this,for example:

( This photo was taken from http://www.lookatme.ru/flow/posts/fashion-radar/122357-shlyapa-filippa-treysi-svoimi-rukami-2011-04-24 )

Simple creations can give such a great inspiration. Nature is always beautiful, remember it.



Hand-made "WOODen" necklace

Several weeks ago I created this necklace.

But  I have decided to put it on only today.

I guess,it's a perfect detail to put a great fashionable accent in very easy and simple outfit. You can just have a non very original base,but with such a catchy detail you would look really trendier and better.

Actually, I was inspired by Celine wooden print.I have shown this print at one of the last posts here.

But I've decidede to create an accessorize,not just an outfit or clothes.

That's my WOODen inspiration.



Frankly speaking,I have made it this way:
I took several pieces of chalk.
Then I printed wooden prints(there weren't real prints,there were just examples of forms of floors).
I cut these papers,wrapped it around chalk and fixed it with glue and scotch.
Then I took a violet thread and painted it into brown,to get this a little bit clumsy and shaggy form.
And finally I bound each chalk with this thread.
Totally,I got it.

So,it's really easy.Not perfect ( it's seeable,that it's not Italian fashion factory:),but easy and home-making.
