I feel like I know her, but sometimes my arms bend back

Autumn. Soft and fresh. The air is filled with new flavors. Have you noticed that every season has its own aroma? In autumn it's spicy and sweet. May be the case in the allegory of a pumpkin? :) September - my favorite month. It's bright, sunny, warm and foggy at the same time. Japanese art  helped me to come to a new understanding of autumn. Previously, I perceived it exclusively on the Gothic manner as something depressing and gloomy, associated with death. But the Japanese Zen art, especially poetry, made me realize that the End - it is always the Beginning of something new, and wilting no less beautiful than the bloom. So September is time for warm sweaters, books and memories! Speaking of memories, I recently found an old gift from my American friend. This is a deck of cards, which appeared in Twin Peaks. Since I am really mad about this film, he made cards of Windom Earle especially for my birthday. Just besides the characters of David Lynch, he added cards with me and my friends. The result was something fascinating and frightening! Oh, how I love when real life is interwoven with dreams!

To be beautiful is to be almost dead

I was lucky enough to chance upon a new masterpiece of Gothic horror  in the vastness of the internet. I'm  talking about amazing miniseries called "Penny Dreadful". Its authors are obviously inspired by tabloid horrors of the late 19th century. The film takes us back to the Victorian era, where in a dark and dirty London live side by side vampires, Frankenstein, Dorian Gray, professor Van Helsing, and other well-known characters of classic books. Frankly, I don't like mixing such subjects, but here it looks very natural. The film creates a special atmosphere, filled with spiritualism, magic, esotericism so that the presence of all these monsters around doesn't seem out of the ordinary. The cast is also marvelous. Eva Green, as always, combines fragility, elegance and gloomy beauty. Besides all this, the show perfectly captures some of the phenomena of culture and art of the time: the Grand Guignol theater, addiction to absinthe, superstitions, Tarot, elegant dresses, false morality, the study of the East, Neo-Gothic.

Audrey's dance



Recent days have been associated with a lot of work, reading, various searches. My work now has two directions. The first is  University. Second - the newly opened by me and my beautiful friend Irina Internet shop with pin up, retro and gothic clothing. We named it "Cherry shop" and this is our cute logo:




Communication with customers, order processing, design of Internet space - all it takes a lot of time. But it's very interesting and I do not notice how my day flies by! Unfortunately :) Beautiful people and beautiful things - this combination inspires me to great deeds! 

However, in the evening, when I find myself at home with a loved one and together we prepare a vegetarian supper - I rest for real. My evening is now once again filled with masterpiece of David Lynch. Of course I'm talking about Twin Peaks. This is my favorite movie and I can watch it countless times. Color, staged frames, nature, characters and their strangeness - all combine to create an unreal world of dreams. Oh, how I wish one day to visit this town, to admire its waterfall and to taste famous Norma's pie with a cup of black coffee! But among other things, one of the main ornaments of this film is the music of Angelo Badalamenti. He managed to create an incredibly sophisticated musical canvas and it's an integral part of the whole. For the past few days in my head sounds composition titled Audrey's dance and I see how delightfully elegant and sexy is dancing my favorite  heroine in cafe "RR". 


So I feel like involved in the life of this strange and magical town, where evil spirits live in the forest. I'm as Laura Palmer, doing something good in the day time but at night the dark forces overwhelm me. Maybe I should go to work in the One-Eyed Jack?)

It's not necrophilia if you're dead too

Too much light! I love the sun, but the first rays of spring, so bright and hot, make me hide in the shadows. The first thing I do when I get home - close all the curtains to stay in the dark and get rid of the pain in my eyes. One crazy thought has arisen in my head - can I become a vampire?:) This is my biggest dream since childhood, hee-hee :) It inspired me to watch old gold films with my favorite classical heroines: Morticia Addams, Lily Munster amd Vampira. Nevertheless, my appearance of the last days is more suitable for Elvira ;) What do you think, what kind of image is more like for me? V~V

From the brightest star comes the blackest hole - You had so much to offer why did you offer your soul?


I'm probably the last person who hasn't written about this masterpiece by Jim Jarmusch. I'm not so often make posts about movies, but here I can't be silent. This film is firmly holding me in his arms, squeezing, preventing thoughts about anything else. The last time such a strong feeling I had only from some works of David Lynch. And now here it is again. It's incredibly deep, powerful film, with lots of hidden symbols and subtle allusions. Twilight, languid music, vampire theme, stunning images - that's what comes to mind when trying to describe it. The story told by Jarmusch seems so real, that while watching you literally feel the oriental flavors of Morocco and the stale air of Detroit. This is the best vampire movie of the last 15 years, and I believe it will become a cult classic along with "Hunger" and other legends of cinema. Tilda Swinton is beautiful as ever, and Tom Hiddleton really broke my heart by his gloomy Byronical image and unforgettable sad green eyes...

Nights in white satin

Today is magical day, my friends! I hope you are all absorbed in love and passion that illuminates your life. The same can be said about me. I was lucky to find someone whom I can call my second half. He always shares my interests, supports me in difficult times, keeps alive my craving for travel. We have come a long way to present unity and happiness. I am very uneasy person :) Very often insane jealousy gripping me. But I try to overcome my bad temper for a loved one. Some of you probably think that today's celebration is quite silly. But it is not so! This is just one more reason to say to the one near you how much you love him/her. So let's be happy regardless of the date on the calendar!




Title for this post is not accidental. Remember the beginning of your relationship with someone, when you're trying to remember every detail associated with the object of your feelings. That's it! When we started dating, there was wonderful film in cinemas -  Tim Burton's "Dark Shadows". Tee-hee :) And of course you remember the soundtrack to the film. The moody blues - "Nights in white satin". Honestly we were looking at each other, not at the screen. And kissed when this wonderful melody sound. Ah...What does our life without love?



For monetary reasons and because of the lack of fantasy I bought for my lover a rather banal gift - stunning fragrance from Kenzo. But in return I got something completely unexpected! A day for the two of us in the spa complex! WOW! How does he manage to guess my secret desires?! And tonight we're going to drink a glass of wine in a French restaurant. I wish you all amazing evening and romantic weekend! =*

The air tastes just like you, it's the smell of June

I hope you are familiar with Demeter Fragrance Library. This is an incredible collection of scents! In addition to the wonderful, but a lil boring flavors like cherry, lavender, lilac or freesia, they have more interesting and unusual - blueberry, giant sequoia and grass. But that's not all! For demanding noses they have perfume with the scent of...moonbeam, snow, salt air, sawdust, clean skin and many other crazy fragrances. And now here's my wish list: holy water, dirt and funeral home! Honestly last smell is not the best. But what else to expect from a funeral home!:) Nevertheless, I still desire them for my collection. However, my other half decided that I am too sweet for this perfume and gave me Vanilla Ice Cream and ...tadam!...my pride - Elvira's Black Roses! 




Elvira is the inspiration for the collection of supernatural, spooky, spectacular scents that are unlike anything you have smelled from Demeter Fragrance Library before. Or from anyone alse for that metter. These Dark Florals are beautiful, but radical and truly unique in their approach to the scent.


But today I want to talk not only about that. This weekend I saw a new movie called "Viy". Don't be put off by the fact that it's Russian :) This is a great example of sci-fi thriller, with elements of Gothic and steampunk. For lovers of literature I can say that the film is based on the classic story by Nikolai Gogol. It's really beautiful and not a banal film. If you see it in the cinema in your city - be sure to go and write about your experience! Here are a few frames:

I'm gonna kill that woman

This week I started watching collection of best noir movies. "The big sleep", "The Asphalt jungle", "Double indemnity", "White heat" and so on. All of them are great in their own way. But for my taste, the most incredible of them are where Humphrey Boggart was starring. Bogey is one of the most perfect men! And his characters... On the one hand - cynical and the other - gentle and deeply loving. Always wanted to be with him on the other side of the screen.
