Polyester white trash made in nowhere

Hi darlings! Much time has passed since the last post. This summer is just driving me crazy! First, in St. Petersburg we faced unprecedented heat - about 30 degrees. Secondly, I have a huge amount of work involved with my projects. I will try to cover everything.

 I've already told you about our little pin up clothing store. We sent several dozen of orders with clothes and made incredibly cute business cards. Just look! 



"Cherry Shop" also participated  for the first time in the fair on the big annual exhibition "City - landscape". It was a great experience for us!




The exhibition was held in an old printing house in the city center. Works of young photographers shocked me with its irony, depth, a new look at the world. It was a real manifesto of postmodernism. The exhibition also held a competition for the best work. One could select five images. Here is one of those that impressed me the most:



Pictures were hung not merely on the walls, but on the old printing presses. This created an incredible combination of tradition and novelty. Again postmodernism!







Other than I do another development project, which is wholly owned my heart. This is "Forest shop", which sells clothes for the elves and fairies. Futuristic design, natural colors, style mix of tribal and psy trance - it is all "Forest Shop." Yes, I wrote about few models of clothes from this store here. Now I select a new collection, and I feel that it will be just stunning! By the way, I can boast of some commercials for "Forest Shop" too. Here is our logo and business card: 





With this shop we visited two large open air festivals - "Warmth of the North" and "Yogart". The last one was special for us. This event is associated with yoga, tribal, vegetarianism, healthy lifestyle. It was very cool to be there and see so many beautiful and free people. Frankly, that trip was not the work, but  a real pleasure! I am very sorry that I didn't have a camera to capture sunrises and sunsets over the lake, next to which a festival held, and our wonderful customers. 

Now I need to take stock of the work done. I must say that I love what I do, even though it takes a lot of strength. I never thought it would be so difficult. Generally, I do not like to sell anything, it's not in my blood. But on the other hand, I love to see the happy faces of the people who found the clothes they were dreaming. It's worth it! This is business for my soul and I hope it will flourish.

P.S. The title of this post is a joke :Р

I am the captain of my pain


What could be worse than a quarrel with a close friend? This compares to parting with a loved one. Unfortunately now I'm just in such a situation. You can really love the person, but sometimes you get so much negativity that it is no longer possible to stay near and you  leave. Me and my friend Irina were together for many years. We have so many common memories, projects, plans... But lately, only  frustration, rage and anger comes from her. I know that she is very emotional person and often simply non-controlling herself. But I am too tired and can't be the same garbage pit, which merges all the bad things. We are both very sick. I don't want to quarrel and sort things out. I'm on the verge of ceasing to communicate with her at all. I hope it will pass. Now I just need silence, peace and solitude. My boyfriend says that I should not take the quarrel with a friend so close to the heart. But it's impossible, because she is the part of my life. Without her, I would lose a piece of myself. Now my mind is polluted by negative emotions, I need to be cleansed, need some kind of meditation.
