Winter at Viking lake

Even before we purchased the house here I googled what was around: parks, monuments, entertainments... And having a state park only 11 miles from our place sounded really great! We go there often during summer to walk dogs, my husband loves to boat or just to walk the trails. It's really picturesque and quiet. And it's even more quiet during winter time!

Ok! Now I can officially call my page: "life after 40". I feel no difference, but changing of numbers always makes you to re-evaluate you life results and achievements. I must admit that I never plan my fortieth birthday to be like this. Well, I decided to turn my life this direction and I have nobody else to blame. 

Last day of summer

It's only November and I already miss summer. I'm looking through photos and thinking of the fun and adventures we had. We made several trips in the car: one to Memphis and one to New-York. And I still have not had time to sort all the pictures we took to post. But I'm going back through my archive. And here I found our last day of summer, when we discovered Carter 's Park in Omaha - drove by a million times but never actually stopped and walked there. And then on the way back we saw this wonderful building with an awesome huge mural on it! I want to share it with you! I wish all boring industrial buildings were decorated like this! How much more colorful this world would be! 

Photoprint

More looks with this top at Facebook

I love photoprint! I think photoprint trend on clothes never goes away. Sometimes it just becomes more pronounced. But almost every year and every season I can find something with photoprint in one or two runway shows. And of course I'm a big fan of Mary Katarntzou, who basically made her name on that!

I'm using last warm days to mix some of my fall winter wardrobe with summer shoes and clothes. This way I can do more different combinations I have not tried before, But cool mornings make me to choose more subtle and quiet colors. So that's how I look like last week.

Chequered top and joggers by TopShop

My first outfit with this set. Accent on purple.

I'm always a little bit concern to buy sets of clothes with the same pattern. My biggest question is if I will be ably to wear it separately with something else.

My top and joggers from TopShop were sold as separates but it's obvious that they were made to wear togethear. Well, top can be always worn with pair of jeans, but what about joggers? Should I even put them in my shopping bag? This pants are something completely different from my regular style. Not just color and pattern, but relaxed, really casual fit, I do not wear often, and hardly have any clothes to go with that.

My color mood changes with temperature dropping. And to be honest, I can not complain, this September and beginning of October we had pretty good weather: couple rainy days, couple cold mornings, but I'm still on  my spring-summer clothes and shoes. And I'm not in a big hurry to put on fall clothes, because I know: once I put it on I will have to wear sweaters and coats non-stop for next 5-6 month!!! So do not push me to show my fall outfits, lets enjoy the summer a bit more.

British Sailor or Mary Poppins

Fall. Cold rainy day. I think the weather made me to think about London's fog and rain and made me to pick my woolen "Union Jacket" and nautical sweat-shirt. Do I look like a British sailor?

I just want to wrap myself into worm cozy sweaters and stay in bed with huge cup of coffee and funny movie! But I have to get up and go to work, into the rain and cold.

And first moment I open my umbrella I felt like Mary Poppins. I do not know why, but umbrellas always make me to think about this book and movie!

Baseball Fun

I'm not crazy! I'm not playing baseball in heels!!!
To be honest I do not play baseball at all! I even do not know the rules... Except for probably what everybody knows from movies and cartoons: hit the ball and run. My husband claims that playing baseball almost like playing chess, except more boring!

So I'm lucky, I do not have to watch baseball and pretend that I like it! But I do like my photo fashion parody on baseball. Have fun!
