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.

Sweater – Blogger’s Yard Sale, Skirt – YesStyle, Boots – Courtesy of Patrizia Pepe, Bag – PennyBlack

Location: Warsaw Uprising Square; Thank you Oliwia for the amazing shots; Thank you Jędrek for lending me the Canon 24-105mm zoomlens!

Significant Other: Ah Shini, you’re such a sheep!

Me: I know, this sweater makes me look like one, right?

Significant Other: No, I meant the way you parked just now – sweety, I’m forced to believe you have an IQ of a sheep.

Me: Screw you.

    Okay, so this has already been said, BUT that skirt rules! Looks all “lacy ladylike” from far away and then BAM! Skulls! Not only that, but your significant other’s comment made me giggle…

    Are you kidding me? That skirt is absolutely FABULOUS. I want, now will I get? I’ve never been a fan of the open-toed boots, but what can I say? You pull them off very well. One more thing, what is that sweater made out of? It looks like it’s made out of my dream pillow material. And I mean that as a compliment because it instantly makes you 10 times more huggable than you may already be and everyone loves hugs. Well, most people.

    the textures look so amazing, it makes me wish I had a bigger, better screen. the shoes seem pretty interesting – I usually hate this type of shoes (open-toed boots, wtf?!) but I don’t hate these. I don’t love them, but I don’t hate them, I could say they intrigue me a bit. hah. great location, too – that building with the colorful balconies has such a lovely socialist feel, just like many buildings here in Ljubljana, Slovenia =)

    Hi Shini!
    Funny conversation with significant other. I had total fear to driving, and still have some. Once, a couple of months after of obtaining my driving license, after I parked my car, a man approached just to ask if I thought it was ok how I had parked my car. At first I thought it was a trick question. I looked at my car form the side walk, checking it was close to it but not far, perpendicular to the side walk, on an ascendent steep slope with the hand brake on and frist gear in,… then moved some steps into the street to check it from another point of view.. to me everything looked fine. And so I told him “yes!”. He answered “That´s what I thought. I´m glad you see you parked well.” and so he left. That man helped to gain more confidence, at least in my paring skills. I just wanted to share this with you because “significant others” sometimes help, and I hope you get to meet mine some day.
    Don´t need to say you look great. I have no clue of how you park, but you´ve got great style girl!

    I gave up on parallel parking when I hit a BMW behind me; now I just go to garages. Fortunately I never really need to drive to go anywhere I need to go.
