We've been spending most our lives living in the Gangsta's Paradise

 A lot of my outfit inspiration for spring has been coming from Scarface, especially from Michelle Pfeiffer's character Elvira. Throughout much of the movie, Elvira wears lots of slip-esque dresses, some in bright and some in neutral colours, perfect for the upcoming spring and summer. The whole look really reflects glamour and excess in a unique way that mixes the mafia with Miami Vice. I for one am certainly a fan of this look. Plus, the film gave me one of my favourites dialogues in cinema;

«You don't got nothing to do with your life. Why don't you get a job? Work with lepers. Blind kids. Anything's gotta be better than lying around all day waiting for me to fuck you.» 

«Don't toot your horn, honey. You're not that good.»

Let's dance to joy division

The photo of me with the guitar? Are we starting to see why I don't smile on photos, my smile is horrendous! Have a lovely week guys xoxo

Scratch a Russian and you'll find a fashionista

Only ONE day until my birthday, I'm so excited!! Here all lots of numerous streetstyle pictures I've amassed in my collection courtesy of lookatme.ru (I swear to you the site is my favourite). Hope you enjoy them! xoxo

Lara's theme

Maybe it's just because I'm Russian but I find Doctor Zhivago to be one of the most beautiful films of all time. Granted, the film doesn't exactly take the moral high ground and when looking upon closer inspection it's about a guy cheating on his wife (Yuri leaves Tonya for Lara) but the music, costumes, setting and plotline, everything just contributes to a romantic atmosphere. While watching it I re-recognised my love for furry Cossack hats and big winter coats, secretly wishing it was December and I was in the middle of a Siberian steppe. Oh well, a girl can dream.
