5 inch and up

2012-01-25T08:44:00.000-08:00

I only Just Now discover this amazzzzing blog 5 inch and up - I love her style, and I couldnt take and show you thease beyond beautiful photos, BECAUSE -

I love heels and there are only one must be very high - at least 5 inch
I looove dalmatians, I have one, and I wish she could have puppies, but there were I live are so many homeless dogs and irresponsible owners that I dont want to take chance that some of puppies would get in bad home.
Im obsessed with such stones - ametyst clusters, agate druzy or whatever they call them - I love raw jewels.

P.S. Also when I saw this blog I realised how much I want and need good photo camera - I love photography especially in details.

Etsy Jewels

2012-01-22T12:58:00.000-08:00

I found this amazing Esty shop MarinaFINI - Im obsessed with such jewellery for some time now, and jewels in this shop is just amazzzing - but what really draw attention to this shop is the photos - I love the colors and there are something very special about them. You must definately check this out HERE.

Love, Zooey

2012-01-19T13:57:00.000-08:00

Photos from here

There is something very special about this brand Love, Zooey - I absolutely loooove color

combinations, because there is my favourite one - grey + bright yellow combination. I have

many many grey clothes, but nothing bright or neon yellow, I MUST change it!

Dragon ARMOR skir #2

2012-01-17T03:49:00.000-08:00

Asos cuffs and belt, Next jumper, Jeffrey Campbell boots, DIY skirt.

Soo finally I can show this - this was the project what I was talking about, of course it wasnt very easy job, there was some darama while making skirt, in one moment I even was thinking to throw thease in trash bin..:D But at the end they turned out better than my first black skirt.

They are made from about 300 hand cut out details - I wish I had a cutting machine...

I use faux leather material, because I try to avoid form animal leather. Althought I coulndt avoid form thease Lita boots..:(

IMPROVED

2012-01-16T03:55:00.000-08:00

I had thease asos earcuffs for while now, I just wasnt in love with them because I think they look too plain, especially when they are on.. and feather earcuffs have been around internet for quite while too, I always liked them, but somehow didnt get them - and few days ago I saw on esty white feathers earcuff and I thought that its soo beautiful, and I was lucky enough to get white feathers in local store shortly after.. Only thing, Im not sure is to take off thease chains or leave them...With chains it looks different but, maybe little too much..I dont know..

Soo Cute

2012-01-11T08:42:00.001-08:00

I just found this at asos - so girlie, and such beautiful color, and details - I can see myself wearing this at summer, only thing...now is january and summer seems to be so far away...plus this is not on sale and jacket cost 55 GBP, shorts 35 GBP, not bargain.. :D

New beauties

2012-01-11T03:33:00.000-08:00

My recent ebay finds, wardrobe essentials - bright Red bag will be my new everyday bag, its quite big, and I love the box shape, and most of all I love this bright color, it just improves bad mood. Oh, and I got it for 4 GBP including shipping - you can call me queen of bargains :D

Also form ebay are thease black high platform boots - I didnt have any plain black high heel boots , so I really needed ones. And I plan to do small glitter job on them, I havent ordered glitter yet i cant decide between sorm grey and black asteorid glitter colors - I dont want glitters in silver or gold or any other bright color, because it might not fit in all outfits as the black boots would..

P.S. I wanted to take outfit photos of my late DIY project that I have made, but today is snowing non stop, so there are no good light to take good outfit photos, so Im waiting for sunny day..I wanted to show you this project soo bad, because its soo amazing, but weather just dont let me..:D

Madness

2012-01-10T14:31:00.000-08:00

I dont know how I even get at Nasty gal page (again!), because I try to not visit it, because I want everything from this store, but they dont ship where I live, soo I torture myself when visit this page.. :D Anyhow, thease Yellow wedges, is just a dream - and I dont know why there isnt mentioned any brand, if there was I could find them somewhere else, but I guess this is own Nasty gal brand.

I have loved bright or neon yellow and grey combination like for ever and I still love - I could live in this blouse.

Last fiew days I was working on one "small" project and today I finished it, so I hope I can take some nice photos later, and show you what I have made, Im very excited, because this thing turned out soo much more better than I hoped...soo I will go to sleep now because its very late and when I wake up I will make some photos.

Rare sunny day

2012-01-10T05:51:00.006-08:00

Outfit: Asos boots, cuffs, rings and faux fur stole. BikBok leggings. Thrifted jacket.

Forest green & claws

2012-01-06T01:26:00.000-08:00

Claw earring is form asos, love it because it's different, and it looks really cool on.

Got thease boots from asos sale, I managed to grab last pair in my size..thease had huge discount, form 85 GBP to 25GBP, so Im very happy with this..
I think green is beautiful color, but I dont like it in clothes, only in accessories, because green color doesnt really suit me - I literally have two green things in my closet, green belt and green bag and now thease green boots...Green is warm color, but on me looks good cold colors - but like I said its more important when I choose clothing, jumpers dresses, everything that is near my face... :D

So, lately Im into one little diy project, and I browse in google to find out is there already something similar -my project is very different form this, but I wanted to show you this amazing work by Stefanie Nieuwenhuyse, because I think this is soooo amazing work, and I admire person who can make something so difficult and beautiful, and also material is ecofriendly and the desing is sustainable. I love everything about this idea. More info you can get here.

Snow leopard

2011-12-23T04:21:00.000-08:00

Outfit of today: few days ago I saw in internet similar jumper with leather patches, and so I decided to improve one of my plain thrifted jumpers, I sew on it shoulder patches ang big pocket - very simple to do, I sew with machine, so it looks more nicer and cleaner than if it was done by hand.

And yesterday I received Asos parcel with some nice things which I ordered when there was winter stuff sale - one of thease things was thease boots, I love this animal print and big chunky heel, and they are quite comfortable because of this heel.

Also I desperately need good photo camera, I wish I could receive it at christmas, but I doubt, maybe I somehow will get it only at spring..I need it because I feel that I have so many great ideas, and when I take photos with this rubbishy camera, I just dont get result I want, as much Im trying.

2011-12-21T05:00:00.001-08:00

I think thease ear ornaments or ear cuffs are amazing, love how it looks on! Also I somehow see this possible to diy..Must add to my to my long diy "must do list". You can buy thease here.

Bears, cows & faux leather..

2011-12-19T13:06:00.000-08:00

My todays thrift find is this faux leather gilet, yesterday I was searching through internet like crazy for it, and I didnt plan to go to the thrift shops today, but I did and I was really suprised that I found that I really wanted, because with thrift shops there is this thing that its hard to find what you really want, you cant predict what you will find there..only thing that the front could be more like biker jackets, but ooh well, for 2.00$ it will fit..
Bag and belt I found also at thrift stores but some while ago - this belt reminds me of country and I imagine that this could be shepherd boys belt...

Also wearing: Thrifted cardigan, qooqoo leggings, asos boots.

2011-12-15T06:55:00.000-08:00

Soo, for NY party I will go to party where will be 1930s dresscode, and at the same day I find out thease news, I found dress in ebay... very similar to thease in photos..I will show you it when I manage to get nice photos.. I also did little research about 30s dresses and hair styles, and this was the time when backless dresses become very popular. .I really love the dress I found at ebay, only thing as you see from thease photos, such dress brings the woow moment, and I hope I will not change my mind in last minute, because to wear this style of dress I must be in very confident mood..sometimes I have this mood but sometimes I just want to wear something comfortable..will see..:)

DIY Jewellery organizer

2011-12-05T06:13:00.000-08:00

I saw similiar organizer in one youtube channel, and I decided to make something like that because I think it looks really nice hanged on the wall. I also wanted to add nails at the bottom of the frame for necklaces, but I dont know what kind of wood is used for this frame, but I couldn t hit nails in it.

I used fabric instead of glass inside the frame, and thats it, this is really simple diy.

DIY friendship bracelet

2011-12-02T12:12:00.000-08:00

So, I saw thease friendship bracelets at ASOS for 8 GBP, and I remembered that I have chain with crystals from older jewellery, plus I added blue yarn, little plain chain piece and metal letter E and I got almost the same bracelet for free. Im sure that thease jewel strands you can get at any local fabric store. This is only a test version, I will try to make them in other colors and from other material thread. You can make theas as gifts for christmas.

Dress for NY party

2011-12-02T05:04:00.000-08:00

I found this dress at NYLA boutique page - just most beautiful dress ever...I styled it with asos accessories.

Hint of burgundy

2011-12-01T05:17:00.000-08:00

wearing: thrifted coat and belt, fur collar from my grandmother, shoes Jeffrey Campbell Lita in wine color.

My first JC litas was in taupe color, but I will be honest, I dont think that taupe color is soo versatile as everyone says, when I receive them I just wasnt in love - but thease in burgundy wine color, they goes perfect with so many outfits, I just dont even want other litas.

Lately is the worst weather ever, it looks outside like september, no snow, dont like that...And all the time its soo dark, even through day must switch on lights...good thing is that there isnt very cold outside.

P.S. I just wanted to tell, that I think that real fur business is one of the cruelest and most unnecessary in the world - wear this peace of fur because its heritage, but I would never buy real fur coats, I have two faux fur coats and they are very warm when there are -20 C - so its myth that people must wear fur to be warm in cold weather.

Nasy gal knows how to make great photos..

ASOS contest.

2011-11-17T14:37:00.000-08:00

1. ASOS Black neoprene laser cut dress. 2. River Island faux fur gilet. 3. ASOS White Harlem bag. 4. French Connection boots. 5. Asos triangle stud earrings. 6. Made Macho Moja ring. 7. Just Acces armour ring. (All available at asos.com.)

1.Asos Black neoprene laser cut dress. 2. River Island faux fur gilet. 3.Cambridge Stachel company bag. 4. DV by Dolce Vita shoes. 5. House of Harlow 1960 arrow cuff. 6. Asos curved textured cuff. (All available at asos.com.)

Frist of all - I decided to make collages instead of putting the links, because I think this way its more easy to look at whole outfit idea. Secondly, why the floating ice? Because when I was looking at dress I was thinking about associations - and the cut outs somehow reminds of ice pieces, plus neoprene fabric is used in wetsuits - and it all go along. And when I typed in google Norway ice float I got this background photo from sattelite.

About styling - as this dress is really bright and statement piece - I think it looks great with something that is not like contrast to this dress but it makes harmony in this outfit. So I was trying to find accessories that woud be friends with this dress. I dont like the color mess in outfits, so I really wanted this outfit to be simple in colors, because its more about texture.

Almost like a birthday...

2011-07-28T01:38:00.000-07:00

Purple River Island, beige and black Asos - and thease black ones, I dont knooow....why they (shoemakers) made such shoes which are dangerous to walk in, Im really concerned about my health, I mean I dont want to disjoint my leg....For me the higher shoes the better, but I dont think thats right to make shoes which are completely against legs natural abilitiy to move..wellll, I will try to wear them anyway..:D

Although thease are 2010 River island shoes, I got them for lowest price ever in my ebay history - first of all when I found them they were not market wich brand they are only "purple suede" and thats all, so I saw that they are brand new river island only when I received package, secondly I won them for 0.99 gbp plus shipping 6.00 gbp - and when I opened the package this was the best suprise ever... :))

Aztec print ( yess, Im also one of thease obsessed with aztec prints) H&M playsuit, sister bring this form Norway....

And all this in one day made my day almost like birthday :D

Soooo Lovely dress....

DIY Asymmetric Skirt

2011-07-05T04:01:00.001-07:00

Nasty Gal is my in my top favourite online shops, I literally would have every single outfit piece from them, but there is BIG But, because the dont ship to country where I live, and so Im using this website to take inspiration for diy projects, actually from nasty gal there are so many items wich are so diyable.
When I found this skirt on sale I decided that I easily could make ones myself (Originally they were 70$, on sale 39.20$). Sooo- I already had trifted skirt, witch I got practically for free, only thing they were not quite maxi skirt, they were bit shorter, I will do this asymmetrical thing with other longer skirt...And also my skirt is from different fabric than Nasty Gals...And I just cut them as the skirt in nasty gal....And I really like how they turned out!:)
If honestly, I thing thease prices for such skirt are so exaggerated, only because such skirt is soooooooooo easy to cut from regular skirt...So I suggest you to try make this skirt, because thease are so perfect for summer!:)

Flood in the river...

2011-04-17T09:23:00.000-07:00

This weekend my family and my BF was taking the ride with boat in this mad flooded river, and my BF was trying to convince me to ride too, he asked me that about hundred times, but I didnt do that because its just too scary for me, as I know how many people got to fell in the water, not just a water but in freezing water..sooo I pass this boat riding thing, and I don't regret that, because at the end I was that person in dry and warm clothes...:D

wearing: Asos boots and sunglasses, thrifted shorts and belt, ebay fringe jacket...

Some DIY

2010-10-25T10:55:00.001-07:00

I decided to make diy leopard shoulder detail jumper inspired from Nasty gal, and feather clutch bag inspired from asos.com! And everything went well, it was more easy than I thought and even sooo much cheaper then original things, hope you like!:)

Last day of summer.

2010-09-03T02:12:00.000-07:00

Thease pics are taken at my most favourite town Cesis. I really love it, because of atmosphere there, it is really beautiful with small streets and there is well preserved amazing medieval castle.
Story about my DIY rings-inspiration I got form Nasty Gal and Asos rings, most parts I already had at home, I only bought fiew ring bases. One is triple finger ring with chains, and other is double finger ring with faux leather studded square. And actually they are pretty easy to do, Im planning to make many other rings, just need to order from ebay some materials.
Also wearing-silk blouse(bought for only 1$), asos trousers and shoes.

Faux leather skirt

2010-07-31T02:23:00.000-07:00

This idea about this kind of skirt camed from Rare laser cut feather skirt, wich I wanted from last years autumn, and got only this spring(in grey colour). I love this texture wich gives many details, acctually more than 200 details. I used two kind of fabrics, both faux leather, one is a bit thicker than other, and together both looks great. The skirt base i already had in closet, they were plain black, cut shorter skirt wich I have never worn, and I bought them for about 3$(calculating from latvian currency)and all together with fabric cost less than 10$, so pretty less than Rare skirt. And I can perdict, that Rare skirt will buy more and more girls, but this what I made is only one:)And to make this skirt, if you work all day you can make them in 2 days, I made them more then month, because most of time they just layed on my diy project desk and waited when I will have mood to finish them..:)

DIY open toe boots.

2010-04-07T07:37:00.001-07:00

Blue faux suede boots, wich my sister bought about 3 years ago. I always loved the colour of the boots, but now they with the ugly spice toe was good just for throwing them in the waste. As I have seen in one blog that it is possible to make regular boots to peep toe, I decided to do that, because if I fail in this mission, then they will go to garbage anyway....Also I dont like the heel, and I have idea to glue them with studs, maybe then they will look so good, that I will want to wear them on street...
I'm also wearing: 5.16. jacket, river island leggings, ebay rosary beads.
