The Fun Theory

Central Moscow Hippodrome is the largest horse racing track and horse breeding research facility in Russia. It was founded in 1834, but the last variant of Hippodrome was made by Ivan Vladislavovich Zholtovsky in 1951.
I think this building resembles architecture of ancient Greece.

One new amusing book, especially for those who are interested in fashion.
Alexandre Vassiliev "Fashion Fates"/Александр Васильев "Судьбы моды"

The author Alexandre Vassiliev is the world famous fashion historian, theatrical artist (he designed 100 ballets and operas in 25 countries), passionate vintage art collector and very intelligent person. I like his sarcastic style of writing.

Here are some pictures:

First photo shows Alexandre Vassiliev, the photo is made by Andreas Auf Der Maur , in Paris, 1991.
Second photo is made by the Princess Ekaterina Golittsina and also shows Alexandre Vassiliev.
We can see Vassiliev’s dress collection in the third one.

This is Vassiliev's sketch for the Nutcracker ballet.

Let it rain;)

Monday, 24. August 2009, 11:20:07

It's raining … And I LIKE IT!) I like the sound of rain it reminds me of so many happy moments of my life: when I was drinking warm cocoa and my mother taught me how to play cards, or the day when it started raining unexpectedly and I was running home without an umbrella, it was so funny, and it reminds me of... my first love).

Be Careful What You Wish For

Saturday, 8. August 2009, 11:22:16

I'm reading absolutely amazing book by Alexandra Potter "Be Careful What You Wish For".

Heather is always wishing for things, something not so big like “peace in a whole world’, but something little. One day some gipsy presented her a twig of heather. “Presented” is not quite perfect word for this, actually she sold it, though Heather didn’t want to buy it.

And since that moment some miracles start to happen. This funny book is what you need to read at the end of summer.
