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! 

Color Inspiration 21

Back to boots! First I have to put away all open toe shoes, now I'm wearing woolen sweaters that replaced silk tops on my hangers... Can not say that I'm happy about that... Ten years ago I married a man from Arizona, thinking that I would never have to deal with snow and fur coats - I had enough of all that in my Siberian childhood. 

And now I'm in Iowa... First three years were not bad, but last winter: long and cold - I'm really scared about next one.
But so far I was lucky and had a chance to mix  some summer items in my fall outfits.

Couple posts ago I mentioned this top from Ann Taylor in my wish list! Now it's mine! And in this outfit I finally tried the trend everyone has been doing all spring and summer: mixing prints. My version is really modest: small dots and small same color flowers! But I did it! Maybe next time I try something more risky and complicated?

Style never equals Fashion to me. I feel it, but I could  never describe it just with couple words. Everybody understand what fashion or style means in general, but when you ask what is the difference you hear long pause before the answers, if you even get one. 

Photoprint

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! 

Color Inspiration 20

Since I've started a new hundred of my color inspiration series, I decided to change the frame. What do you think of it? Is it too much and I should be more modest? Well, I see people pinning my pictures and at least they will know where they came from! After I read some advice for beginners (who I am) I added watermark to photos. It's not like somebody is trying to steal my photos (believe me, I would be the proudest person in the world), but just in case....
