OUTFIT: My blueberry nights
OUTFIT: Wicked witch
I could say I got inspired by Harry Potter, but I didn't. I found that cute top with Hogwarts crest in a second-hand store, and I enjoyed reading the Harry Potter series so I bought it.

I also love that yellow skirt, it just looks like summer...
OUTFIT: Rock 'n' roll radio
Everyday outfit inspired by... Dunno, I've had the leather jacket for ages
and even though the zipper is broken and I couldn't zip it up anyway, I
still love wearing it. I also found the T-shirt at a fashion meetings in Jistebnice, it is a second-hand but still pretty cool.

Fat or flat
I am really happy that many campaigns fight against anorexia, bulimia and the way media depicts women's body. I support all the "plus size" models, the ads with proper women, such as Dove:
And I thing that fashion industry is sick and just wrong. But the other side of these "everybody's perfect" campaigns is defending fat girls. Here, I said it. FAT.
The truth is, that S-size is not available for everyone. I know that very well. I tried to wear that, just like my mother and sisters do, but no. I happened to inherit the bodytype of my grandmother - big tits, wide calves, not being able to get under 62 kilograms even if I tried really hard (I tried once, stopped, because I felt just wrong). Never mind. It is perfectly ok to be size 44, 46 or whatever. But you just can't weight 120 kg and tell me you are perfect the way you are.
First of all, unless you have some health issue which keeps you from moving, it is just your fault and I believe even your laziness. Nobody wants to weigh that much. And everybody can try to change that. I know that my struggles might seem stupid compared to yours but they are as real as yours. I ride my bike everyday to work and back. I run, I go for walks, I exercise I do stuff. I try to eat properly and I manage to do so most of the time. I am not gaining weight. I'm not losing it either, as I stopped smoking this year and the metabolism kind of stopped burning calories. And every once in a while I feel fat and ugly. I could do more for myself. And so can you.
The most important thing about being overweight is not the fact, that you can't find fitting clothes. It is your health. Do you know what extra kilos do to your joints? Not to mention the impact on your heart, stomach and other. You get tired easily, you move badly and your body suffers even if your mind doesn't. You can change that.
Look again at the women on the picture. Different sizes, different shapes...all perfect. But I bet you that most of them exercise. They try to improve their figure or at least maintain the one they have to stay healthy. And That is what those spacially distinctive ladies should do too.

First night in a new apartment / První noc v novém bytě
I didn't write for some time, as we were quite busy with moving, painting, carrying boxes, getting new chairs, sofa, and most importantly, waiting for more than a week for internet connection. I do have a mobile phone able to connect, but I really can't add posts to my blog on that tiny screen. So this is a little report from what we did these days.
