Pati + De-stress

Hello,

I've been under stress recently and oh boy, I hope you guys keep calm in and stay positive in every situation. I wanted to tell you that story but "ain't nobody got time for that". Instead, I decided to make a list of de-stress do's. Nothing special, you probably know it without me. But just gentle reminder ;)

1)  Try to avoid everything that can potentially annoy you even more.
Focus on yourself. Even your friends can't be jerks. Don't listen to anyone who tries to bother and tease you. Think about result or target you working for and don't give up.
 
2) Change the environment around
Leave the "negative place". Go for a little walk and refresh your mind. That situation is probably not as bad as it wants to look like. Trust me, there's a solution always.

3) If you have time, do something that cheer you up!
Listen to your favourite music. But honestly, it's not longer works with me because if I'm sad I want to listen to sad or hard music and die in tears lol.  I found dancing work just perfectly! When I dance I can focus only on movements and there's no more space in brains to think about problems. It's just a nice relief. If you are book-lover, go for it! Shopping, sport, TV show, whatever. Everyone have something.

4) Go claim about your problem to someone who can listen to and support you.
BUT do no spend to much time for it unless you gonna end up even more upset! Just get rid off this emotion. Trust me, it feels nice.

5) Food is a treatment, seriously.
I know it can cause some after effect if you eat too much to fill better. Although treat yourself within limits. One cookie or small pack of chips. Once in a while! The great alternative for those who don't allow it themselves is dessert flavored tea! I swear god, some teas taste just like birthday cake or macaroon.

6) Chamomile and lavender can calm you down.
Aromatherapy - essential oils and candles can help you too. Speaking about teas, this herbs are so good in teas. By the way, recently, I tried lavender hot white chocolate. Oh  my gosh, it's so yummy. Tastes actually just like milk with hits of vanilla and lavender. I bet it was syrup or just flavor drop. So we can  make it home easily!

7) Fake your mood
Scientists don't lie, it works. Fake a widest smile and stand in "power pose". You'll feel better! You can even try to laugh :D

 

 

Yours,

Hi there.

I've been super uplifted and motivated this day until shit happened.
I have to say, shit happens.
But I leave it for dessert next post.

I was really happy with my look today and I got a lot of complements.
Here's a thing, this outfit might be my cheapest one.

#OOTD:

Cardigan 12.5$

Basic tee 8.5$

Floral jean 7$

Chain about 1$

Sunglasses  about 7-10$

Loafers might be 25$

but it's real leather

 



Although I have to tell that accessories and shoes I got back home, but main garments I got here, this year. I'm not ashamed that I shop at sales mostly and sometimes at departments stores. This cardigan I got from Target with 50% off, H&M jean was probably like 30$ originally, basic tee is also with 50 off from Garage because I found coupon plus I ordered it online so no wasting for transportation to the mall.

Thanks to my friend  for pic form etsy shop "Fill in Home"

I wish it was my bad and blanket

Hi there,

Just wanna talk to screen you about my life,

It's week 11 in school which means that I'm going home soon! Can't wait to be there.

At the same time it means that I really have to study hard to increased my marks. I'm kinda exiting about my Trend Analysis and Product Development class. I must to design a denim line of 5 pieces. I have ideas for 2 garments, but wish me good luck with sketches.

Do you guys have plans for this summer? Last summer I had a trip with my friends and here's a little video of beautiful Russian views and my friends' hilarious conversation

Pati + Volunteer

Hello everyone!

Long time no see, it's been a busy week.
Hope everyone enjoyed this weekend, because I did not completely.

Let me just complain a bit about my Saturday haha

So I had opportunity to volunteer at the Anokhi Media's 12th anniversary event.
I honestly did''t know who are they until I had interview. And it's not even important.
Anyway, I just wanna say how disorganized this event was. Actually, it wasn't organized at all.
Other dressers and I spent the whole day, from 1pm to 12 am at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel at least the place is gorgeous and they provide us food  and of this 11 hours we worked probably about 1 hour max. Thanks God, I met wonderful ladies and we cheered ourselves up.

Outfits were messy, some pieces were dirty and ripped a little bit. Steamers didn't work at some point because electricity was gone... The Royal Your Hotel is at Union, I live at Humber North campus, it takes me about 1.5 hr to get home. I don't wanna be raped so I asked if I can leave earlier at 10 pm. The guy, who supposed to coordinate volunteers said yes. And then someone told me that runway show starts at 10:40. How the hell I'll dress my model if I leave 40 min before the show starts??? Oh sweet Jesus, it was probably my favourite moment of that day.

Anyway, fuck them, here's my beautiful model Shar and I.

She's amazing! Best wishes to her and maybe we'll meet somewhere in NY where she lives <3
------------------------------------------------------

What I was originally trying to say is stay positive no matter what. Find someone who will boost you up. Always laugh and smile!
