roasted devotion

dress - self made

lace trimmed slip - self made

beret - handmade by my aunt 

boots - air step

i am not a big fan of autumn

after color burst is gone

it's all cold and dark and sad

makes me wanna be a bear

and sleep until it's done

..

roasted chestnuts makes me

change my mind about that

every single year

..

holding that hot paper cone stuffed with roasted chestnuts

with hands red and frozen from the wind

and eyes a bit watery from excitement

is a sacred moment for me

..

bugs day

it's so fogy outside

i can't even see my neighbor's house

(which is kind of cool

cause it's an ugly house)

..

and.. i do love foggy days

and foggy landscapes

looking all misty and romantic

i would even love to have a foggy outfit post

but it ain't gonna happen

not today

nope

..

today is for bright colors

for bugs

and dentist visits

on fairies and westerns

gown - self made

this beautiful fairy

is my friend ana

she might seem familiar to you

'cause she is a younger version of my friend nina

and you've seen nina on my blog before

wearing some of my creations

..

this beautiful gown

is my medieval mumbo jumbo costume

and i'm not planning of being a princess any time soon

..

but

ana is an actress 

and she does plays for kids

she is a pirate and a fairy

and a proud owner of this gown 

and new pair of wings 

..

she is not a cowboy

not yet at least

nope

rest of the post title

has nothing to do with ana nor gowns 

..

it's about my newest obsession

..

i somehow developed a huuuuge crush

on clint eastwood and spaghetti westerns

(not this 81 years old clint

but the one from the 60's and early 70's)

..

in my favorite movie so far

in first 3 minutes of the movie

clint manages to get shaved, kill 3 guys, 

smoke a cigarette and rape a girl

..

and with uninviting cold and foggy weather

and me being home alone

obsession is running wild

i'm seriously close to opening booze bottles with my teeth

and sleeping in my boots

..

autumn breaks

dress - vintage laura ashley, from flea market, reconstructed

belt - vintage

heels - peacocks

i had an amazing two months 

while i was away

..

been digging some late bronze age site

with amazing gigantic pottery

(and sadly not a single skeleton)

then did some medieval excavations

met some new friends

discovered few amazing new places

and one great little lake

drank a truck of beer 

or maybe two

read many books

hung out with few silly goats living in our backyard

and mastered minesweeper

..

life is waaay different out there

kind of slow

and for months i see the same people

every single day

work with them

live with them

eat with them

drink beer with them

laugh and fight with them

..

we always live in some small village 

after couple of days one get to know everyone living there

..

when i have a day off

and come back home

it's kind of frustrating at start

i get on a city bus

and not a single face is familiar to me

it freaks me out a bit at first

..

two days after i got back from excavations

belgrade fashion week started

and i was working in the backstage

change was surreal 

from digging through medieval trash 

in the middle of nowhere

to zipping up pants and dresses of unknown people

surrounded by mass hysteria
