Glitter sneaker Vol. 2

 A year ago i made these baby pink ribbon glitterati sneakers. I loved them since before they were born but didn't have that much of a chance wearing them because they cracked after I wore them twice or so.
 This year I decided to give them another chance (the same bad quality shoes) and give them a small twist with a black ribbon.


For a more detailed procedure you can check here.

Which one do you like better?

Parody GIRLS Season 38

"Girls" Parody

A sharp video parody on tv show "Girls", what the characters would be like in 40 years.
I am a fan of the show and I think this is hilarious.
Great job girls!

Lithuania, a single at a wedding and chunks

 This past weekend one of the dearest people in my life got married. My gal, my party-mate and a person who says the words at the same time with me even though we don't see each other or communicate in any way at all, for years, someone who understands me and whom I'll always be fond of.
 My feelings have put my expectations quite high, and I know that even if it would have been really bad, I'd still have had a great time, but it was AMAZING. Nothing more to add.

It was my first time in Lithuania and I knew quite a few things about the country, the people, the traditions, but everything way so surprisingly nice. Most of it thanks to my very welcoming friends and all the positive energy that was floating around us at all times.
 I was amazed by how warm and friendly everyone was, I guess I was expecting more of a northern county treatment but what I received was happy, smiling, ready to help people.

I flew to Vilnius, the capital city, but then I went to the seaside because that is where the wedding was. I stayed at my friend's family house and enjoyed every single bit of it. They were sooo nice to me, but it's my friend's parents, so I guess that doesn't count. It felt like home.

 The weather was nice and sunny, just the right temperature, which was important since the wedding ceremony was close to the beach. It was an international wedding but I had most fun with the locals. :)
Lithuanian guys are really something, trust me on this one. It is always a bit weird not having a date at a wedding, but I think it was much better this way :)

Now that I've seen it, I can definitely say I will come back, as soon as I can.

Who doesn't like flowers

 Especially when they come in a nice pot, beautifully arranged. I did a small, tiny favor to a friend and got this beautiful thank you gift. Needless to say I wasn't expecting or hoping for nor expecting anything. It was such a lovely gesture and a great surprise.
It really is the small things.
You even get a rose attached to the bag
 It was bought in Au nom de la rose shop in Milan.
Here are some pictures of one of their Milan shops, in via Mercato.
