What’s wrong with Emily in Paris?
Emily in Paris - the newest production of the creator of Sex and the City, Darren Star with costumes by Patricia Field, set in the ultimate European destination, Paris sounds like everything we need this fall of 2020. The whole concept gives a major Carrie Bradshaw vibe, who runs around Manhattan in high heels and is not afraid to ask difficult questions about relationships, friendship, or sex. But instead of New York City's urban jungle...

Cristal Palace
Madrid is not always on my way. For bigger concerts or events I would usually go to Barcelona and later stay there for a day or two. Besides, it’s such a convenient travel base. However, when the exhibition “Balenciaga and Spanish painting” has appeared at the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum, it was time to visit the capital.

Costa Blanca in winter
While moving to a different country you have to adjust to a few changes, one of which is undoubtedly the weather. As you can guess, in the case of Spain...

The new city lights
Although I have tried to travel as much as I could, explore new places and step out of my comfort zone for the past couple of years, changing the postcode was always temporary and had an expiration date. This time, however, I decided to do otherwise, and take the plunge. I changed not only the city but also the country. No pre-established returning date needed. Something tells me, that here, in Valencia, my collection of sunglasses will expand quite a bit whilst the chunky sweaters and coats will be at the bottom of the closet for most of the time.

Jungle In The Heart Of The City
There are some places that don’t necessarily require us to even go out of town and yet make us feel like we are hundreds of miles away. We often visit local cafes and cinemas and we rather ignore the nearest attractions. I try to go against such thinking occasionally exploring the nearest area. Inspired by the exotic character of the Palm House, I chose a shirtwaist dress with a rather loose cut that I associate with film-style jungle crossings and a pair of heels with the snake motif which I bought years ago. Minimalist, silver accessories complemented the whole outfit. I’m sure this wasn’t my last visit to this beautiful place and I will make more than one project here.

Say no to grey
Winter temperatures bring a change in both our mood and closet. What’s interesting, these two seemingly unrelated things have a significant impact on each other. Somehow we avoid cheerful or expressive colors almost with the same reluctance as standing in the cold. Our Polish tendency to choose subdued colors is even deeper during this period and makes the streets grayer. However, without going to the extremes, we can revive our look by choosing accessories or one particular item in a bright color. I chose a canary coat. Simple as that. It definitely can bring you closer to spring.

City Vibe | Day Look #1
I decided to start a mini-cycle dedicated to some of my ideas. A DAY LOOK is a collection of my outfits inspired not by films…but this time by streets of European metropolises.

Valencia, little Paris on Spanish coast
There is no Eiffel Tower, but there are palms, there is no La Défense, but there are Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias – although Paris and Valencia seem to be extremely different cities, I have found many common features in them.

Does the coat make the man?
The power of individual style is reflected in our personality more often than we even think. Not without reason, the old saying, “Fine feathers make fine birds”, still works. Regardless of our opinion on that subject, the clothes are an integral part of the personality in the same way as they...
