I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

Well, other than migrating from bed to bed in the house for mini naps and mapping the neighbours from my window I managed to convince a friend to meet for a coffee. OK FINE, I begged her. Convince, beg, same difference. (Sob) Flora showed me the cosiest cafe in Warsaw called My ‘o’ my where I had best salad in town. Well, probably the best in town because I have virtually no friends and thus haven’t had too many salads in town.

OK enough with the moping, clearly this being alone in a big house has given me the catlady attitude. My parents are coming back tomorrow so a reminder to those who’ve passed out after the houseparty and never left, please TYOB (Take Your Own Beercans).

Here I am, talking to dussst.

(Thank you Flora for the outfit shots!)

    Imaginary parties truly are the best ones anyway ;)
    Love the polka dot bustier and the skirt. Have you worn the dress as a skirt here or is it a plaid top and sheer skirt?

    That salad looks so yum, and you look so cozy, but not in a daggy-tracky-dacks (I’m hoping that what I just said made some sort of sense, unless its one of the million terms that only Australians understand) sort of way, more decent, like if lady gaga decided to look “cozy”, she’d probably wear what your wearing, and I like lady gaga, so I’m hoping you take that as a compliment. OK this is a really long comment, so I going to stop right about … now.

    actually got a little bit excited inside when you replied to my comment, like when a turtle sees beef. (if you’ve never fed a turtle, just so you know – they go nuts for beef, they’ll start jumping out of the water and everything!), – i just realized I must sound more weird with every sentence.

    Oh gosh, this makes me miss Europe. I spent some time in Prague last summer, but never made it to Poland. Which is a shame, because it’s been on my “must visit” list for a looong time.

    This cafe looks so cute. I wish I could go to Warsaw! Also your skirt is super super cute. I actually really like this outfit, the layering is perfect. I wish I had more sheer garments to do stuff like that.
    Have fun with your parents!

    beautiful pictures. i’m never failed to be impressed by your indoor photos (not that the outdoor ones aren’t great.) do you use flashlight for indoors, or mainly depend on the natural light? i don’t seem to be able to master the food pictures myself.

  28. Shini
    March 28, 2011 at 2:46 pm

    I never use flash, always natural light! Try doing the settings so that it takes in as much light as possible, for example opening the f-point to the widest (lowest number) depending on which lens you’re using. It gets better when you have a lens like 50mm f1.4 or 30mm f1.4, (or even 50mm f1.8 as cheaper version) the F-point is what matters most for light!

    @Shini, right, i’ll give it a lot of practice. thanks for the tip! … sometimes i find my brain not working when i see food. i guess that’s a problem i’ll have to work out :)
