Summer Lagoon

Top 10

2012-10-06T13:07:00.000-07:00

Somehow, I narrowed my very long list of favorite movies into top ten. This is the list of movies which one way or another touched me deeply. I still can watch them over and over again and not get bored.

1. Unfaithful – about human choices, lust, and consequences.

2. Closer – it shows how love can turn into tool of manipulation.

3. Love and other drugs – a reminder that some people walk into your life and change you forever.

4. Vicky Cristina Barcelona – one of my favorite Woody Allen movies, which includes love triangle, nice music, beautiful Barcelona, funny dialogues.

5. My best friend’s girl – funny, romantic chick flick.

6. The beach – Danny Boyle and Leonardo Di Caprio – love both. It not just a movie, it’s experience of the different world.

7. Inception – journeys in the dreams and the main questions of what is real and what is illusion.

8. Drive – stylish and hypnotic. I fell in love with Gosling and the soundtrack.

9. Into the wild – classic and inspiring movie about nature, freedom, adventures, real values.

10. The Notebook – romantic and sentimental story about summer romance which turns into endless love.

Delightful

This is how I imagine my own home - peaceful, light, fresh, homey, airy and gorgeous.

Green Balcony

We still have winter outside. And this is the reason why I'm dreaming about sunny green things like breakfast in the balcony.

Angelina for Marie Claire

2011-12-10T02:48:00.000-08:00

I'm not a big fan of Angelina Jolie beauty, but those pics of Marie Claire magazine are stunning. Angie looks simple, natural and gorgeous.

Exquisite look

2011-12-01T02:26:00.000-08:00

Such an exquisite look! I like everything in this look: lipstick color, outfit, hair, accessories.

Long Lasting Manicure

2011-10-15T00:20:00.000-07:00

I read and heard a lot about new discovery - UV nail polish which can last up to 3 weeks! Isn't this miracle, if you know that usually nail polish starts to chip several days later on even at the same day?

Daug skaičiau ir girdėjau apie naują atradimą - UV nagų laką, kuris išlieka net iki 3 savaičių! Ar gi ne stebuklas, žinant, kad nagų lakas pradeda luptis po kelių ar net tą pačią dieną?

I was very excited to try this miracle on myself and here comes the result. My French manicure last 2,5 weeks without any chip.

Aš susigundžiau išbandyti šį stebuklą ir pristatau rezultatą. Mano prancūziškas lakavimas išsilaikė visas 2,5 savaitės ir nė truputėlio nenusilupo.

First day/Pirma diena:

After 2,5 weeks/Po 2,5 savaitės:

The Big Five

One of my very favorite photo. Stephanie Seymour, Cindy Crawford, Tatjana Patitz, Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell by Herb Ritts, 1989. Well, no more words to say.

Ombré hair

2011-09-05T03:05:00.000-07:00

I always like when fashion looks a little bit lazy. That's why I really like this year hit - ombré hair color. It looks like hair grown out or they were lighten by sun. Natural and edgy style for beginning of the fall. Looks like you just came back from summer vacation.

Man visada patiko mada, kuri atrodo truputį netvarkingai. Todėl man labai patinka šių metų hitas - ombré plaukų spalva. Atrodo, kad plaukai nuaugo savaime ar buvo nublukinti saulės. Natūralus ir atsainokas įvaizdis rudens pradžiais. Tarsi ką tik grįžus iš vasaros atostogų.

Casey O'Connell

2011-08-12T04:00:00.000-07:00

I have to admit – I know not so much about art. However, I had a crush on a young artist Casey O'Connell. She is absolutely wonderful and has signature style. By the way, all her works are of personal experiences. I really love her paintings filled with joyful spirit, energy, passion, emotions, and romantics. Something between daily reality and a life of dreams. Bold lines, contrast colors intertwine with subtle air of softness and femininity, love and lust - with purity and innocence.

Turiu prisipažinti - nelabai ką išmanau apie meną. Tačiau jauna menininkė Keisi Okonel mane sužavėjo. Ji neabejotinai nuostabi ir turi savo stilių. Beje, visi Keisi darbai įkvėpti asmeninės patirties. Man labai patinka jos paveikslai - pilni džiugios dvasios, energijos, aistros, emocijų, romantikos. Kažkas tarp kasdieninės realybės ir svajonių pasaulio. Ryškios linijos, kontrastingos spalvos persipina su subtiliu švelnumu ir moteriškumu, meilė ir geismas - su tyrumu ir nekaltumu.

Punk Heroin Chic

2011-08-02T01:00:00.000-07:00

This time pop culture phenomenon, known as Paris Hilton, steps up of pink Barbie look. I really like unrecognizable Paris Hilton makeover. Feels very kind of 80's punk heroin chic.

Šįkart pop kultūros fenomenas, žinomas kaip Paris Hilton, atsisako rožinės Barbės įvaizdžio. Man labai patiko neatpažystamai pasikeitusi Paris Hilton ir jaučiama 80-ųjų pankiška heroininė elegancija.

The Beginning

2011-07-26T06:19:00.000-07:00

Welcome to Summer Lagoon - my small new word, where the weather is good, sun in shining and everything is just fine! After several years of being blog addicted, I'm really excited finally to start a blog about things I love.

Sveiki atvykę į Vasaros Lagūną - mano mažą naują pasaulį, kur geras oras, šviečia saulė ir viskas yra tiesiog puiku! Po kelerių metų priklausomybės nuo blogų, aš labai džiaugiuosi pagaliau pradėjusi savo blogą apie dalykus, kurie man patinka.
