Tallinn'11

Hey, everyone! As many of you probably know, I was born in Tallinn and have a lot of friends and relatives there. So my husband and I had a nice trip to Estonia in the end of January. We had such a great time, especially because it was my hubby's birthday (he turned 25 on the 29th of January! Again, happy birthday, babe!) and because we went to the concert of this amazing band Hurts. Check them out if you haven't. For the first time we went to Tallinn by plane (it's only 350 km between St. Petersburg and Tallinn, so our flight took us only 40 minutes, it was really cool). And for the first time we stayed at a hotel. Tallinn is my hometown so I always stay at my grandmom's, but this time we decided to treat ourselves with a little getaway at a spa hotel. 

Here are some moments of our trip...

At T.G.I. Friday's at the airport

















Our little Saab SF-340. There were only 10 people on the plane :)












Our nice spa hotel


































Having a good time...
















































With my bestie. We are going to celebrate 20 years of our friendship next year! Wow!

















It was their biggest show in front of 4000 people!





























Their poster in Tallinn

















I had my nails done. Lovely color, right?

















Some nice views. I can never get enough of this beautiful city...













































Hope you like it! Waiting for your comments!

My Train Case

Hey, everyone! Just wanted to share with you this news. After researching different train cases for quite some time and unsuccessfully trying to find them here in St. Petersburg, I ordered one online. It didn't take long time to get here from the USA.

I got it mainly because I'm considering doing makeup as a freelancer (not sure about that yet). The second reason is that I have a little child and sometimes it's nice to lock your favorite makeup and jewelry and put it away :) Moreover I'm planning to have more children, so that train case can come in handy. 

I'm really happy about my purchase, so here it is as I unpacked it:























































Hope you liked it! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me in the comments! Have a nice week!

OOTD: Holiday Weekend

Hey, eveyone! 
We have 10 official days off here in Russia - from December 31st to January 10th (we celebrate Christmas on January 7th). Holidays are always great! So one day we decided to spend some fun time with our friends going to the movies and having dinner at T.G.I. Friday's. Here is what I was wearing:

cardigan - H&M
shirt - Guess
shorts - H&M
tights - don't really remember, I'm guessing TopShop
boots - Ecco
necklace - Swarovski
watch - Guess
other jewelry - my everyday jewelry
handbag - United Colors of Benetton


















As far as makeup goes, I was wearing pretty much a neutral look (a brown smoky eye with some black eyeliner and some black mascara) with this lovely lipstick that I really like and recommend to all of you - "Lustering" by MAC. I found that I love a lustre finish in MAC lipsticks, you can wear a dark lip color without it being too dramatic.  

















I was also wearing my "That's Un-blini-vable!" by OPI. It's so pretty, it reminds me of a liquid rose gold :)































Hope you enjoyed it! 

















Looking forward to your comments!
