the good the bad and the ugly






dress - self made
petticoat - self made
cardigan - zara
flats - peacocks

weekend plans:
i'm gonna join my parents
and visit their country house up north
we gonna do some gardening 
drink a lot of beer and brandy
and threw a barbecue party for friends  
i'll walk a lot
look for some crazy looking insects
and in sunset, i gonna shoot my two fluffy spring outfits
..
weekend:
night before we arrived, someone broke into the house
brandy is gone, some tools are gone
house is a mess
also, winter was insanely cold, 
some water pipes broke, so there is no water in the house..
but it's one lovely sunny day
so we do our gardening and beer drinking anyways
barbecue fire is on
and is left unattended for a moment
20 seconds later 
half of the orchard is on fire that is raging and moving up the hill
destroying everything on the way
we are all running around like maniacs, trying to put the fire down..
our first neighbor has an old hand water pump in the yard
so i'm pumping water like crazy
and running uphill with two big buckets full of water
and do that over and over again
20 minutes later
fire is under control
we are exhausted, dirty, sweaty, with lungs full of smoke
with scratches on arms and legs
with melted shoe soles..
if the wind haven't change the direction, no way we could have stopped that fire
..
this outfit was planned to be fun and girly
that was sooo not what i was feeling this morning, with all the muscle soreness 
so i tried to transform it into japanese horror 
that feels more like my weekend

p.s.
i'm so exhausted today
that i'm absolutely unable to think in english
i've edited this post at least 15 times
(not on time though, i've lost a follower today, probably 'cause of my shminglish)
and i'm sure it is still full of mistakes
so i apologize for that

  2. I like the bright colors of the dress, and I'm sorry that everything else was such a disaster. I hope everything works out alright.

  3. Normally plans seems better than reality, but that was too much. Great dress, though

    1. i kind of love the story too, even though parts of it were gigantic pain in the ass at the moment.. also, it's going to be a battle scar not only for us, but for our four guests and a guy that was trimming our orchard at the moment (well, he got lucky i guess, we burned half of his job hehe, so it might not be a scar for him, only one crazy story)

  7. Oh my God!!! I'm so glad you're all okay!! For some reason the "melted shoe soles" really struck me... gosh that just sounds so scary!

    Also, I think your shminglish is great - and the dress and total ensemble is so wonderful - and kind of hilarious given your weekend!
