Ad astera per aspera

'To the stars through difficulties.'

Hey guys,

I've got some news for you. I don't know if they are bad or good or, for some of you, they don't even matter. Anyways, my life has been very busy lately and I haven't been regularly posting for a while. But now it's going to change completely. I promise.
Next year I'm dedicating all my life to art. My subjects will include Textile Design, Photography, Graphics and Life Drawing. It's going to be crazy - I will be buried in coursework. Even though, I am starting two new projects this summer.
One is called 'Paradise'. My dearest friend Akvile invited me to join this fabulous community and write. This page is for Lithuanian readers for now and will be open to public from 14, June. Please, like our Facebook page here. We appreciate.
The second one is a complete government secret for now. All I can tell you is that it's gonna be fabulous, big, interesting. But I will tell you more about it later.
When I said things are going to change, I meant it. I've created Bitchinstyle like four years ago. It changed, I changed, but it has always been my baby. It is going to stay this way, but for now, I'm closing Bitchinstyle due to my huge lifestyle changes. I know I'm going to come back here. Maybe in six months, maybe in three years. But when I do, I'm going to make it big. Bitchinstyle will not only be a blog, it will be a brand, a name, a label.

So I'm not saying 'goodbye', I'm saying 'see ya!' cause we WILL meet again. I know it, you know it.

xoxo,

Anna Dello Russo for H&M

One of my favorites - Anna Dello Russo - announced her accessories collection for H&M, which is very very awesome, considering that accessories are key pieces in my outfits :)

The collection features jewelry, sunglasses, shoes, bags and a trolley at H&M’s affordable price. Available from October 4, 2012in around 140 H&M stores worldwide and online.

“I am excited by this collaboration: this is the first time H&M involves a Fashion Director in a special project. This is the sign of an important evolution in fashion, and I am both thrilled and humbled to be the one chosen to lead it. I wanted to create precious accessories that are impossible to find. As a stylist I know accessorization is essential: it is the personal touch to any outfit. With these pieces everybody can have fun, turning an ordinary day into a fantastic fashion day”, says Anna Dello Russo.

 “It’s been extremely exciting to involve Anna Dello Russo in this project, something completely different from what we have done before. Anna has a fantastic eye and a strong taste, apart from being a veritable fashion icon. She has produced an extravagant range of accessories that will get H&M customers, and everyone in love with fashion, excited. The collection is a celebration of excess, fantasy and decoration” says Margareta van den Bosch, Creative Advisor at H&M.

Calvin Klein Jeans Spring Summer 2012

Hello fashionistas!

This time I wanted to share with you this beautiful campaign by Calvin Klein Jeans with the fabulous Lara Stone! This commercial concentrates on these neon coloured jeans and they are amazing :)

Calvin Klein Jeans is one of my favourite brands when it comes to denim. Although, we all know that designer clothes are rather pricey. H&M gives us this wonderful alternative for just £14.99! I'm planing to use this opportunity and buy few pairs of those fabulous jeans :) Let's all walk neon trendy this spring!

Winter is gone

Hi angel faces,

My half term break is coming to an end so I'm kinda in a bad mood. Even though I've had great time this week.
On weekend there was snow! I do admit, I hate winter and I hate cold, but it was nice to see snow here in London. It doesn't happen often here, so everyone was pretty excited. I took some pictures in my garden to convince myself that winter can beautiful too :)

On Monday me and my friend Jessica took a trip to the City. One of the tasks for our Textile course was to visit a museum or gallery over the half term break. It was really fun to spend some time with my beloved mate, who actually is one of my dearest friends here in UK. So, we visited Tate Modern gallery (after long long time struggling to find it) then we took the tube and went to the V&A museum. That's one of the greatest museums they have here in London, since it's all dedicated to art, design and architecture. After that we were starved so we went to Burger King (not even apologizing under these circumstances). After we filled our tummies with all that delicious junk food we went to check out the National Gallery. Monday was pretty great even though I was exhausted after all that walking :)

On Wednesday my friend Anna had her 18th birthday! She threw a fabulous party and we all had good time there :) As always there were people that got out of control, but my rule is 'It's not a party if no one is throwing up!' Oh but jokes will be jokes :) I'm glad I had an opportunity to spent this time with my friends from college. And I love my girlies, you're all so beautiful and fabulous!

I only have three days left till I'll have to get back to college, so I'm dedicating this time to do my coursework... You have no idea how much I have to do. And I barely even started! :/ I'll make a post about what I do in college to show you what's actually going on :D And also there will be a post about NYFW! It was epic :)

Yeezy taught me

Did I win the award for worst blogging ever or what? :D

Anyway, from now on I hope to do the best I can, because I have some free time. I'm finished with Textiles Design coursework, all I have to do is prepare for my exam piece :) I do not know what I'm making yet, although I think it will be a dress. :)

So today we are talking about Kanye West. Major rapper, fashion icon and my personal hero. I actually do imagine myself as his wife. Don't judge me.

His outrageous actions really made him resentful in some peoples' eyes, but not mine. I love him for all that.

So there are some outfits of my beloved. As Kanye said in his song 'Good life' he has a passion for fashion. He loves good quality and designer labels. I love his style and the way he presents himself. I really want more men would dress like him. Good sense turns me on :D

 Kanye and another love of my life - Pharrell Williams

There is Kanye rocking Versace for H&M in Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

Kanye often attends fashion shows, he is always interested in new trends.

To sum up:

He made 'Jesus walks', he's never goin' to hell.

Shopping spree

Hello my lovely ones!

It's January and we all now what it means for shopaholics - mid season sale! I know it's very bad for me since I'm totally broke, but c'mon! So, I woke up today, saw what a beautiful day it is and decided to hit the high street :)

I'll start from the left :)

1. Studded handbag from some local shop £2.5
2. 'Kanye West' t-shirt from Primark £8
3. Beyonce 4 and Jay-Z & Kanye West Watch The Throne CDs from hmv £5 each
4. 'Moustache' t-shirt from Primark £3
5. 'Waiting for Mr. Right' PJs from Primark £7
6. Oil pastels and new sketchbook from local art shop

I seriously need to save some money right now and I need to find strength in myself not to shop. I know, it's ironic because I love fashion and I can't live without clothes...
