WILD WINTER

I always thought about winter in terms of the lack of sun, frozen hands and dark coats that overwhelm my colorful outfits. I've been frustrated in moments when my beautiful, colorful shirts and well-tailored trousers had to hide under the dark coat. After years, I am smarter, more aware of that problem and I know that coats can be the perfect complement to our styling. You might want to play with their form, whereby gray or black coat does not have to be boring and serve as sleeping bag which protect from frost. Be creative and do not let your coat was killed in a crowd with you!

During this winter in my wardrobe I can see more different prints, white and black colors and leather clothes. Of course, colors do not leave me but in the winter sets appear sporadically. They prefer warmer atmosphere, definitely! :)

My today's styling is very patterned. A shirt with asymmetric zigzag from Versace mixed with trousers, which resembles the wild, animal climate. Rib print very reminds me of the collections of Italian designer Roberto Cavalli.

Both prints have created a very interesting graphic whole. So the rest of the styling elements had to stay in a single color. That's why I chose white, oversize coat with a wide collar, which for a shirt and trousers created a contrast. The only stronger accent is burgundy hat with a wide brim. I did not think so burgundy and white mesh together very well. Black, leather suitcase remains in the graphic rhythm, and navy blue suede boots are not too heavy for the whole styling. And look at these futuristic sunglasses! Are not they perfect for a wild trip into space?

THE 2015 ACADEMY AWARDS

In the Sunday's evening at Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles was the 87th Oscars ceremony, which is an Academy Award's . This is a very prestigious award in the cinematography industry and its holders are remembered for a long time!

This year a lot of good films competed for the statue, including Boyhood, Grand Budapest Hotel and Birdman. The Oscar for the best actress went to Julianne Moore and to the actor Eddie Redmayne. Moreover, the Polish film "Ida", directed by Paweł Pawlikowski won the Oscar for best foreign-language picture. I'm still so excited about it!

This evening was really exciting and full of surprises! I think about extravagant styling with underwear only which chose host - actor Neil Patrick Harris (who wanted to make a scene from the Birdman film), a beautiful, operatic performance of Lady Gaga or presentation of additional Lego statuettes. Awesome!

On the red carpet, we were able to see a really successful stylings. Celebrities approached the subject with great commitment. Unfortunately some of them failed with the choice of their styling they should never appear on the red carpet. Who won the Fashion Oscar? And who made the biggest blunder? Let's start with evaluation. And what a styling was the best by you?

OPERA HAUTE COUTURE - COSTUME EXHIBITION

A few days ago, I spent a cultural afternoon. An Opera, intimate fashion show, refined tailoring and Arkadius work that I could touch with my hands. Is it sounds intriguing? What's more, everything was available for every ordinary mortal. What are we talking about? The exhibition of costumes for opera organized by The Grand Theatre - National Opera in Warsaw. "Opera Haute Couture," because this is name of the exhibition, provides extraordinary aesthetic experience for the customer, all thanks to the work of leading Polish designers.

Nobody should be surprised that the designers design the costumes for the opera. Such experiences have had, among other things: Giorgio Armani, Muccia Prada, Christian Lacroix, Viktor & Rolf and Yves Saint Laurent. They designed the amazing creations, which were watched by millions of fans of fashion and opera. In the Polish fashion such phenomena are a little strange, but very groundbreaking, especially in the interpretation of the word "fashion". Unfortunately, still a lot of Poles believe that fashion is only flashes, stars on the red carpet, money and free events. They treat it like a vanity effect. Nothing could be more wrong than this. Fashion is not just clothes and posing on the walls of sponsorship. We must finally understand that fashion is primarily a kind of art and should invoke in us emotions, both positive and negative. It is also part of the culture, the one closest to the body, the closest to us. I think that the exhibition in the Gallery of the Opera was well presented and took us into a completely different world. This was a great fashion on the big stage and when you saw it you will not be disappointed.

THE 2015 GRAMMY AWARDS

The 2015 Grammy Awards is over. For 57 years those music Oscars have been awarded to big personalities. This year, 22-year-old youngster Sam Smith got the most of statuettes, as much as 4 per great hit "Stay with me"! Who knows, maybe catch up with the Hungarian conductor George Solti, who recieved 31 statues? No one can deny that a night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles was really exciting.

On the red carpet, we could see a really great outfits. But there were also those which it should not be seen the light of day. The annual event stylings for a Grammy in some sense can be compared with a sinusoid, which once reaches the threshold of decency and delight, and sometimes leads us into confusion.

We could see a lot of stars e.g. Madonna, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Pharrell Williams, Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian. I like the most Katy Perry's styling which comes from Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad. I have not yet seen such a perfect creation on her until now.
Lady Gaga impressed me the most, but I am confused with her dress. I love Stefani and she is a great inspiration for me, but this time I am disgusted. A dress is design by her stylist Brandon Maxwell and was too small for her. A large cut at the front with a low-cut neckline at the front reduce silhouette. This creation is very difficult to wear and definitely will be better for filigree woman.

TAKE ME TO CHURCH

Never say never! It is a banal statement but true! Certainly in my case! My closet has long been full of clothes in juicy colors and when I am see a black and gray I always say:”OMG, I will never wear it!”. I have always been convinced that black overwhelms me and I do not look at it- favorably. I have not mentioned about gray color, though. Until now! I noticed that this winter I choose often a black jackets or coats and I think that I liked it. The devil is in the details. I realize that clothes do not have to be boring, provided that they have sophisticated accessories!

I found my black oversize coat in the cintage shop. I wear it every day with torn jeans, sweater or suit. I do not think that it will work in many different stylings, though. Today I have a glam rock style set, which consists of only 4 colors. Of course, I could not have completely black, so I had to choose creamy golf. Sleek and classic is the besis for all, adding excellent contrast.

Well, I put on the classic styling. However, I would not be myself if I did not choose sunglasses which in this set come to the foreground.

MARIUSZ PRZYBYLSKI "WILD AT HEART" COLLECTION

Last year in the Polish fashion was extremely impressive. On the catwalk we could see a fresh new forms, as well as playing with materials and different colors. Especially the last aspect was the most visible, as it is well known that Polish designers don't like bold, extravagant combinations with colors. Probably the first time during many years, most of the shows presented in the past year positively surprised me. I hope that this year will bring us even more good shows, while making it clear that the Polish fashion market is becoming stronger.

Today's post will be dedicated to the designer, who has recently received the "Designer of the Year 2014" awarded by the magazine "Twój Styl". Who is he? A very capable man, who after a few years on the market, begins to change the Polish fashion. He is trying to understand the needs of a new generation that is open and will not be subject to rigidly defined conventions. Of course, I think about Mariusz Przybylski, the designer. By showing his latest collection "Wild at Heart" has has become a hot topic in Polish media. I am sure that after reading my review and after seeing the pictures, you will admit that Mariusz Przybylski is GREAT designer.
