Black forest, silver tree

Such a cold spring in Russia, you just can not imagine! My dream is to wander through the woods, run a hand over the soft moss, smell the heather... From these visions of summer grew up my elven clothing collection, which I called "Earth Spirit". It is dominated by the colors of forests around my hometown: dark green, black, brown.

(Warm coat made of 100% cotton and lined with soft fleece. Adorned with hypnotic fractals)

(Elven dress with jagged edges and cut on the back)

(Bolero and belt bag with leaf motif)

I still have a lot of clothes that needs to be photographed. Also, I'm thinking to make my own shop on Etsy. So many plans... I hope I have the strength to carry out all conceived.

Hearts of space

Carried away by fifties it's impossible not to become imbued with incredible design decisions that were everywhere in circulation in the fashion of the time. Clothing, interiors, cars - all permeated with improbable faith in the human capabilities and in progress. One of the most exciting areas of this culture is the so-called retro futurism. I looked through hundreds of photos with vintage cars, resembling space shuttles and many pictures that represent human exploration of space. Now it looks strange and too frantic for us, because the design has become faceless and monotonous. But my heart belongs entirely to the images of the 50's. I have long wanted to do something in the style of "space pin-up". And finally I had such an opportunity due to remarkable brand Voodoo Vixen! Their "Judy Jetson" dress looks in the best traditions of retro futurism and I just love it!

I long to be by the sea where a blossom falls from a cherry tree

Phew ... These were insanely busy weeks! I finally started to visit the gym and  get fit for summer. Merciful Lord, make it so that all the cookies gone of the world!... Of course I'm kidding. Now my shops and preparations for the new season  interest me most of all. A couple of weeks ago Rebel Dolls participated in the fashion show of dresses from my pin-up store "Cherry Shop". It was a great event with jazz music and dancing. Finally, I got photos from there!

I like to review such cheerful pictures. Fond memories of important moments of life. And this time also a farewell to the old  hairdo!^^ Goodbye Betty bangs! Hello 50's style false bangs XD

Do you think I made the right choice?)

On my fingers the smell of her deep black hair

I'm so glad that my collection is enriched with a new fragrance from Demeter Fragrance Library. I love the variety of their flavors and  believe that everyone can find among the presented smells something of his own. I've already posted about two items from DFL here. The company pride themselves on being produced fragrances at least 95% natural and made from environmentally friendly components. Of course, DFL products are not tested on animals. 

My new bottle of perfume is called "Sex on the beach." Yes, in honor of the famous cocktail :) I feel notes of pineapple juice, drops of raspberry and melon  liqueurs and a little bit of cranberries. When applying this fragrance on your skin before your eyes arise dreams of paradise islands, palm trees, tropical fruits and beautiful islanders, and the hand itself stretches over a glass with a cool cocktail ...:)

Аscension

Spring! All is full of sunshine and energy! And I do too. I madly want to create something, to write, to implement ideas. I feel purity and renewal. Now is a good time for all sorts of magic and rituals. And every spring I'm irresistibly drawn to the ground. I feel so much forces in myself  that I want to give them to someone else. And then I planting :) I love all kinds of plants: house plants, pot plants, garden plants.  I don't have much space at home for all the plants that I'd like to grow, unfortunately. But I have an old-old Spathiphyllum, poinsettia brought by one Christmas, cactus, and of course orchids. This is my permanent residents. But in times like these I like to plant flowers. I loooove the bulbous! Daffodils, hyacinths, lilies, amaryllis... This year I decided to grow aundersized irises. This is one of my favorite flowers. So gentle, refined and concise. Now my babies are 10 centimeters growth :) Moreover, the window sill is a great place for medicinal herbs. With due attention you can grow mint and lemon balm, thyme and rosemary, magic tulsi for health and tasty basil, lemongrass, and even parsley. Plant and prepare the ground better in accordance with the lunar calendar: in ancient times astrologers noticed the connection between the cycle of the moon and the development and growth of plants. Today is favorable date for planting, pretty witches! So let's decorate our homes with thousands of beautiful flowers!

The Sisterhood

*commercial break*

My beloved sister now lives in Germany. She is the most talented person in the world and I can not help but admire her creativity! She sees all the beauty in nature and people. Maybe because she is a witch and has a mystical connection with the spirits, huh? In any case, I love her with all my heart and  want to share with you one of her works. This is the new vision of traditional Russian nesting dolls. Cute, isn't it? I only regret that I haven't  got good quality photos of this little masterpiece.

I had once written about the artistic skills of my sister here. But I should add that most of my best photos are also made by her. So if you want to arrange a fabulous photo shoot, ask to make a drawing or crafts, perform a Wiccan ritual or simply make friends with her, please welcome:

Phoenix Of My Heart

Dear friends, I have accumulated a number of new cosmetic products, which I would like to share with you. Firstly, it's my discovery of perfume brand "Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab". I was given a lot of "imp's ears" for Halloween, and I hardly could find the time to try them all. My collection of fragrances called "A Picnic in Arkham". Oh, I love the dark world of HP Lovecraft! And of course I just had to taste something as weird as a perfume associated with his books! So, here is my top of creepy fragrances:

****  Al Azif

"A sinister, sinuous incense of summoning, a herald and paean to the Primordial Gods of Darkness, Chaos, Madness and Decay."

I put 4 out of possible 5 because this scent is more for men. The smell of coffee with a touch of oriental.

***** Arkham

"A shadowy, unapproachable forest of maple, birch, dogwood, cypress and pine softened by a garland of New England wildflowers: bergamot, columbine, rue anemone, blue violet, creeping phlox, bloodroot, toadflax, and pixie moss."

If this city really smells like this oil, it should be not so scary. Very light flavor with a hint of mango.

*** Cthulhu

"A creeping, wet, slithering scent, dripping with seaweed, oceanic plants and dark, unfathomable waters."

This is the worst smell of the whole line. Very sharp and not natural. It looks like Cthulhu enjoys air freshener.

**** Herbert West

"Aftershave, embalming fluid, and splatterings from a panoply of reanimation reagents."

I smell the tea and very light shade of flowers. As if he is  not possessed  reanimator but harmless old florist. 

***** Miskatonic University

"The scent of Irish coffee, dusty tomes and polished oakwood halls."

Warm and soft scent that I associate with cookies. It seems that the University is a stronghold of the goodness.

**** Nyarlathotep

"Brooding, yet electric: the scent of buried secrets, roiling nightmares, the essence of the Crawling Chaos, the Father of Knives and Locusts, the Hunter in the Dark. This is the blackest of ritual incenses charged with flashes of ozone."

The smell of the earth, weighed down by sadness. On the skin reveals notes of citrus. 

**** R’Lyeh

"A hellishly dark aquatic scent, evocative of fathomless oceanic deeps, the mysteries of madness buried under crushing black waters, and the brooding eternal evil that lies beneath the waves."

The smell of freshly sliced apples, mixed with something unnatural. Maybe a trace of air freshener from Cthulhu? 

***** Shub-Niggurat

"The lust incense of a corrupted Astarte. A blend of ritual herbs and dark resins, shot through with three gingers and aphrodisiacal spices."

My favorite scent! Apple, cinnamon, honey... Warm, enveloping scent. Looks like Shub-Niggurath is just ducky and often bakes at home an apple pie.

Please don't forget that these estimates are highly subjective, and everyone feels in flavors something specifically own. 

What else is new?I have already written about the fact that the care of the hair very important to me. So I discover new amazing brands with great joy. "Kensuko" is the last such opening for me. Shampoo of this mark perfectly moisturizes and nourishes the hair and has the consistency of cream. In addition, this eco-friendly brand! So I'm going to try a few more funds from "Kensuko". 

In addition, I switched to natural oils for my skin. Now I'm testing macadamia oil. It's too early to talk about the results, but I hope that this is much more useful than chemical creams. 
Ladies, I ask you to share with me your experiences in the use of oils: cosmetic and aromatic. What is your favorite flavor at BPAL? And what kind of oil do you use for face
