inspirations

Inspiration is definitely one of the weirdest things in the world. It depends on my mood and my life so much! There is definitely smth that makes me happy anytime, like different outfits, books or driving. But I also have many more interests in my life! Do they always inspire me? Nope! Do I know why? Hm…

 

I feel like there are certain things that are pretty much stable and they are cool no matter what – like the smell of the freshly-brewed coffee/fashion and interior magazines/adrenaline in your blood after a cool drive/travelling (!!)/choosing your look for the day/a cake from the bakery downstairs (lucky I have one so close!). I know exactly that all of this puts a smile on my face.

 

There are things you can’t be that sure about. Not because they are less important or you love them less. Sometimes you just don’t know how it goes. For instance, I love theatre and art. Every time I go to the gallery I hope I will looooove it! It happens most of the times but not always. Like contemporary art museums. They drive me nuts! After visiting the ones in New York and Moscow I walked out super depressed and with the feeling that the world is going crazy. No matter how trendy it is to adore contemporary.  Another thing – I always love my friends and usually we have so much fun together! But they are people and can be in a bad mood, with a headache or their life can be a complete mess once in a while. Meeting them for breakfast usually makes my day. Sometimes instead of being inspired and happy smth just goes wrong. Your friend is late again or you are both tired and grouchy. You had a bad day or your friend did. You just never know.

 

The only thing I try to do with all that is to live my life! Day by day, hour by hour. No matter how shitty your day was – there is always another one! Love everything you’ve got. Even if it hasn’t inspired you today – it will, tomorrow! Accept your friends and your soulmates, your work and your apartment, your closet and yourself – just the way they are and try to find inspirations in new things! May be a new friend? A new lover? A new purse? We are all so different and everyone has his own key for creating, drawing, scrapbooking, writing or making people around happy.

Inspire and get inspired!

Our little smth

You know how every girl has her things. They can differ a lot due to the interests: shoes, purses and accesories, organized in the closet or books, magazines and music on your Ipod. I don't know a single girl who wouldn't keep memories, things or at least smth somewhere. Guys mostly have the necessities around but not us - we always have a table, a corner, or at least a drawer whith stuff. I find this word so funny - everything around is stuff.

 

I don't have one place for it - I have stuff all around my apartment. Organizing it all the time makes me feel like my life gets more organized.It turns out to be important! Rereading postcards makes me memorize the feelings I used to have before and compare them to what I have now. When I  look thru my year planners I realize how much I've done and how many more plans I've got. My closet, my jewelry and my make up just make me happy - day by day.

While I was wandering around my apartment taking pictures for this post I kinda found my center. It's nice to live your life right now, in this very second, but it's also cool to look back once in a while. To say "thank you" to the Universe for everything you've got. To remember and memorize. To love people around a little more. To stress out less.

Look around! I am sure you'll find stuff that will brighten up your day and inspire - for smth awesome!

The spring breeze of changes.

It all gets better. When you see ‘March’ on your phone screen, it becomes easier to make new decisions kick in, smiles appear on your face and love warm your heart. When you finally get a vibe to take your fancy shoes and dresses out of your closet and take your Ugg boots off. I weirdly want to put my heels on tomorrow, no matter that it’s still pretty cold and snowy. It’s Saturday, it’s the first SPRING Saturday of the year and I want to go all beautiful tomorrow. Light and different, spring textures – a leather jacket or a silk blouse – from now on, day by day. The winter is over! Is’t it the best thing in the world – this year-round season change? I know exactly how funny it is for my Cali friends to read these lines. People who have been wearing bikinis throughout the whole winter won’t get how AWESOME it is to switch from your winter closet to a spring/summer collection. It’s not just a different style that is in. It’s nothing about a new line from your favorite designer. I can actually FEEL this breeze of changes. Outfit changes. Style changes. Life changes. It’s like you are born again, young and beautiful. It’s like every dress is so new, cause you haven’t worn it for a while. Since… Last year!
