Indications start to shine: сloud nine – white line – this time I’m on adrenaline!

It seems that since we organized "Rebel Dolls" my destiny  is permanently interwined with bikes. This time I was lucky to see and touch the chic and aristocratic power of motorcycle brand "Triumph". They are simply magnificent! We shot a small set in their salon  for the calendar of one famous café . Wait for details;)

Can you feel my heart beat?

So, my dear friends, what's new happening here?

May 26th has been one of the most beautiful and extraordinary days of my life! It was the day Nick Cave gave a concert in St.Petesburg. You know, the last six months his music played a very important role for me. The night before the concert I slept very bad and terribly worried. There was a feeling that I'm going on a first date XD I wanted to look like something special. So I chose a black pencil dress with cherry print, high-heeled shoes and fasinator with a veil. I came to the concert hall one hour before the show. A small crowd of fans has been waiting for Nick at the stage door and I joined them. It seems to me, it took 70 minutes until the car with musicians appeared. Unfortunately Nick just waved his hand and left. But I realized that my legs are literally fall off due to uncomfortable shoes. Fortunately, the concert was supposed to be a chamber, and I had a ticket for a seat. Someone caught me in the crowd waiting for King Ink:

 

(I'm looking so frightened here! I can't watch without laughing)

Finally the show started. Nick came out, greeted the audience and played one of his slow songs. What was my surprise when, at the beginning of the second song, half of the audience stood up from their seats and rushed to the scene! I thought that this was my chance too and ran after them. So after doing this I was two-three meters away from the scene. Nick was simply divine! He was in contact with the audience constantly, shaking hands with everyone, communicate with us, joked, danced. Meanwhile, my feet again made themselves felt. Well, I couldn't think of anything better than simply take off my shoes :) Yes, I was at the concert of Nick Cave barefoot!  I hope it was dark enough and no one saw... I was absolutely happy to be much closer to Nick than originally expected. But those people who bought very expensive tickets to the first row - not at all. They asked the guards to disperse those who hindered them watching.  Security began to press people, but instead of getting away from the scene, I was even closer! But...my dress was torn...Whoops! So, I'm standing barefoot and in tattered clothes in one meter away from Maestro. Well done! I thought, ok, I have nothing to lose. And start my path towards Nick. In the end I found myself in the front row! Hell, this worth it all! Goodness, I feel dizzy at the thought that King Ink was even holding my hand!  I was the happiest person on earth! Nick Cave is a real magician or shaman. His ritual movements fascinate. And what's make me more happier is that at the end of the show I was able to get the paper with set list! So, my legs hurt terribly and clothing was damaged, but I touched the cold hand of Nick, received a present and heard my favorite songs! I'm in love!  After the show, I was trembling from overstimulation and could not stop. Again I slept very bad, and the morning after was feeling just awful. The tale was over. If you will allow me to compare Nick Cave with drugs, he is definitely heroin. Mad euphoria and grave condition after. I swear, I even felt pain. Now I like learning to live again. Everything falls into place. Nevertheless, I repeat, it was one of the brightest days of my life...

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. 

(Cozy jacket made of 100% cotton with pointed sleeves and hidden hood. Handy belt bag fitting this jacket. Several compartments)

(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!
