Light of my life
fire of my loins
My sin, my soul


Today’s outfit was inspired and created for a fashion competition on one of the Polish style community sites called Stylio. The main idea behind this contest was to create film inspired outfits and because Lolita is one of my favourite both literary and film characters I knew that it will be my entry. The book is a real masterpiece, and I've already read it a couple of times, and the 1997 movie conveys quite a lot of book’s charm onto the screen. Although the heart shaped sunglasses are associated with Kubrick’s version of Lolita more I used them to create the Lyne’s version film inspiration.

A Place to Hide

Lace and florals are my two favorites when it comes to clothes for a while now and that's almost everything that I use in my outfits recently. I've lately bought this lace dress as it was on sale;I was waiting for its price to be reduced for a couple of weeks before I've had a chance to do it. Oh, and I’ve also bought it in pale pink, which looks even prettier! I just need to find some kind of a slip for underneath the dress as it’s only lace;) This was actually supposed to be a different outfit post but the weather and circumstances didn’t allow me to get that other outfit photographed, so I had to use these photos taken on my recent charity shop spree;)

Rocket Skates

Recent days were so lovely here in Scotland! I can't believe we've got such nice weather and it's so many days like this in a row! I've been basically spending the last couple of days in my sun lit bedroom ( I can literally sunbathe in my bed & on the windowsill:D ) listening to my favourite music ( [esp. Placebo] which I can't live without), reading Murakami's Norwegian Wood and Kafka on the Shore and eating/drinking yummy things. It couldn't be more perfect ♥ Also it's a great way to keep yourself away from shopping, which I'm trying to limit;)
