Winter wonderland in London
Winter in London is by far different from the one in Lithuania. While in Lithuania I had to walk on icy roads and snow during this time of the year, whenever I decide to visit London,(which usually happens on weekends) it always starts to rain.
So happened last weekend as well, as we I decided to visit Winter Wonderland, huge German based amusement park. Okay, it wasn't fun as soon as we got from the metro station, however, just after we got the first ride, we forgot the rain instantly and couldn't wait to get as much as we possibly can from our visit here. In one word I can say, that it was AMAZING. I don't know why, but it was such a huge deal for me. I tend to think, because I haven't been to this kind of event for a loong time, so maybe that's why I felt in love with this event and loved each moment spent there. Some photos from the event below!

INSTASHOT: Throwback to South Korean adventures + vlog!!
This post has been lost somewhere ahah. You know, that usually when I come back from my trip, I go to my blog and post an article full of instagram shots. That's what I was supposed to do with this post as well, but somehow, there were so many things going on in my life that I forgot to make it.
Anyway, now that I finally created my travel vlog (yess, very first vlog of mine), I think it would be cool opportunity to post it here, together with my instagram shots.
And guys, you can't even imagine how excited I am about this vlog as it's my first video like this that is ever posted, so be understanding, it might not be perfect, but I am planning to improve!
Anyway, let's see if you like it and maybe if you do, I can create more videos like this for you to see, especially when it comes to travelling! If you don't know, here you can see an original travelling videos from Korea.
Vilnius, Lithuania
Bagels on my mind
Now let's talk about some of the coolest places in town! If you ever have a chance to visit Lithuanian capital Vilnius, make sure you visit this awesome bagel place. "Beigelistai" is how this place is called, is actually the latest discovery of mine. It's some new place where you can you can choose from many many types and you can have a cup tea or homemade lemonade as well. That's what I did on this hot Autumn day. I visited with sis and we decided to have some bagels for dessert, so ordered one with nutella and one with peanut butter. yum! so delicious!
You can look for this place in Literatų street, Vilnius and see for yourself!

SOUTH KOREA TRAVEL DIARY + video
So it has been almost a month since our trip to Korea. I am very happy to be able to show the last post from the trip which is going to be a little bit different from the ones I have been posting during my travel. This time I am about to do a wrap up story which would mostly include people, food and places. Maybe you're about to visit this amazing country? Then it would be perfect for you to check on some things before you go, as we did visit some awesome places there. I am going to leave short captions along the photos so that you could understand what the photo is all about:)
Now it's time to stop blabering, go get some coffee and snacks, cause you're about to see some culture shock here and there.
Seoul, South Korea
The hanbok story
One of the most memorable thing I got to do in Seoul or in all Korea was probably the drama cafe I went to. I know, sounds quite funny, but believe me it's so unique and awesome, that I will remember it for the rest of my life. So the main point here is pretty clear. You go in, choose the dress, order the drink and just after that get dressed yourself. You can be whatever you want, a bride, princess, fairy, or my most favorites were Korean traditional hanboks of Gisaeng (pretty much the same as Japanese geisha), Empress or you can choose any other role in the palace. So I chose the attire of the Empress in bright red. I couldn't even imagine it weights a lot, but it does. The piece was super heavy.
I took some shots there and then had to dress of the dress in order to finish my coffee since you can't do that with the clothes on. It was super awesome experience as you never really do these kind of things on daily basis and not to mention, I got to wear one of the traditional clothing pieces that do excites me the most about this thing.

Kitty paradise in Korea
Some days ago I visited one lovely place in Myeongdong district, Seoul. Believe it or not, it was a cat cafe. In Korea it's a very common phenomenon, to enjoy coffee and pat a kitty at the same time. So I decided to go and see for myself what kind of feeling and place is that so called kitty cafe. And just as I thought, it was nothing, but kitty paradise. Just as we stepped in the cafe, one lovely cutie pie decided to come closer and say 'hi'. When we went to order our coffees, guess who were sleeping on the bartenders table? yup, there were about 5 kitties laying. I don't know how about you, but I was completely taken away. It was really a nice experience and I recommend for you too, go and visit.
Seoul, South Korea
Dining in Itaewon
Hello hello from Iteawon! The area of Seoul famous for its international concept. By international I mean, the cafes and restaurants are offering food from the different cuisines of the world, such as British, German, American, Japanese, Thai, Russian, Indian, Mexican and so on. You can find it all here, in one place. You may also find Korean restaurants too, but if you have Iteawon in your GO-TO list, keep in mind that this district is all about cultural diversity. (You may also do some shopping there and clubbing too). Korea is really wonderful in this respect. If you look in the surroundings of Seoul you may see various places such as Itaewon, Myeondong, Insadong and all of them are specialized in something and each place is different from one another, that's why it makes Korea very interesting country to visit. It just won't be boring. There are surprises everywhere you go.

Scent Bar 3rd Anniversary party!
Some time has passed since one lovely celebration, 3rd anniversary of Scent Bar to be more exact.
If you don't know what this concept store Scent Bar is all about, just give a minute. No, this is no ordinary perfume shop, full of just any perfumes that you could get everywhere. Unlike other shops, this perfumery store is known for its unique and different taste in smell. There you can find products from France, Italy, Denmark as well as some of the most well known Lithuanian brands such as "Odor Paradisi by Kaciuniskes Manor", "Lietuvos kvapas" or even wonderful smell having Freshdeli candles. As you can see already, Scent bar is no plane perfumery shop, so it is definitely worth a visit.
So now coming to the evening, from the photos you can already tell that notable people gathered and some fun happened. So firstly illusionist Nicholas Kin showed his skills during his little performance to warm up the evening. It was rather amazing I could say. Later on some some of the most delicate fragrances were displayed and sprayed on fellow guests. Good aroma was felt everywhere.
But I need to mention the Malia Nobile 1942 perfume. You can definitely call it the star of the whole evening as it was this smell that provided the whole new conscept to the event. And it was witchcraft. Rather interesting, isn't it?
This scent is created for woman or rather insidious witch who knows how to play with good and evil. It's indeed a magical scent and once you spray this perfume, it's like you put a magical spell.
The evening was indeed very magnificent and it was a pleasure to be there at this important day of Scent bar!

Magnum: Release the beast
Well quite some time ago I attended one awesome evening. It was organized by Magnum and the main motto of the show was to #release the beast. 9 pictures were presented by illustrators Illustrators Akvilė Magicdust, Akvilė Lesauskaitė, Nomeda Marčėnaitė as well as 8 dresses, created by three of my favorite Lithuanian designers Egidijus Rainys, Lilija Larionova and Agnė Kuzmickaitė. It was really inspiring and fun as during the event nice music was playing, cool people were interacting on and on and not to forget the Magnum ice cream that we were eating non-stop! (Yum).

Meeting Mados Prieskoniai: New Michael Kors & Daniel Wellington pieces
One lovely summer morning I was on my way to the meeting with Mados Prieskoniai followed by the fashion breakfast with delicious food and awesome company. A lot of people showed up, who were either bloggers or local press representatives. I had the greatest time talking to all those people, meeting the head of the company, which is the main importer of the designer brand goodies into our country as well as taking on some attractions, which was basically me and sis desperately trying to reconstruct the watch. It didn't go well whatsoever, but it was a nice challenge to take on.:)
Oh and how can I not mention the highlight of the whole event! New Michael Kors and Daniel Wellington collections were on display, and (oh my) I love it already! My personal favorite are these awesome straps of the DW watches, so sailor-like! It just fit to me so well! Maybe some of them will be spotted in the up-coming outfits, who knows:)

Interview with deichmann + more
It hasn't been that long since a few of our videos came out to light. The ones that we filmed with the Deichmann team. The first one is all about us (me and my sister) since we gave one interview about shopping, sharing clothes, shoes etc. However, the other one is focused on Style support owner Indrė Stonkuvienė, who presented some of the trendy looks that we got a chance to wear on the video.

E. Rainys/L. Larionova A/W17
Some days ago I hurried to Vilnius to one private fancy event or fashion show if to be more correct. (for the first time I got this amazing customized invitation in my hands haha). We weren't alone then as we got accompanied by one girl Greta from Deichmann. It's always nice meeting new people whom you can talk about fashion with. So yeah, it was a great event and I really enjoyed it :) We were also seated into the first row which was really nice as me and my sis got to take some fine pictures for our blogs straight from that spot. You can see them here. And don't forget to check the video to get full inspiration for the following days!
Collections were really great according to me. E. Rainys showed some girly, feminine looks with those flawless dresses flying around us and Lilija took us back the previous decades and gave some retro feels that were brought back to life. More about it read here.

London Diary
Here I come again with the throw back to my trip to London back in March. I have already posted my outfit details here. So now I am happy to say some words about this awesome 24 hours that we spent exploring the center of London as well as visited one university called Middlesex university with one Lithuanian organisation kalba.lt . It was a lovely visit as we were greeted very warmly and were shown around the faculties. Too bad it was an Easter Holiday so there was almost no one there at that time and most of the rooms were locked, but well, it was pretty easy to take pictures that way so no complaints. What is more, after countless hours of walking we got to have a nice lunch near uni. It was truly one of the highlights of the trip! After that all our group were shown to the best places in London by our personal guide Diego who is actually the student in the same uni.
It was really a lovely trip and a new experience to me. Now I would like you to see the pictures taken by the amazing photographer Emilija who catched all the amazing moments in these photos.

H&M Conscious collection presentation
I can't describe with words how amazing the latest exclusive H&M collection was. It felt like something that doesn't belong in this world, Haute couture to be more precise and unfortunately, not very suitable to wear on daily basis. Every piece was magnificat in its own way and stole my breath each time I turn to look at it. Elegant slippers, flare trousers, oversized-old fashioned shirts? Count me in.
