I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

On my last day in Kraków I had a chance to meet up with Gabriella from Street Fashion in Kraków, such a sweetheart. We drank lemonade at an atmospheric cafe on Bracka street. The cafe had seats outside that looked like school tables where customers would sit alongside eachother and watch the passerbys, kinda like first row fashion show seats, and I’m thinking that’s how Gabi chooses her streetstyle prey.

The Kraków trip was a breath of fresh air; my favourite was the fact that the modern youth culture was completely embedded in the historical bits of the city, so you’d easily find a nightclub in a Polish townhouse of the 1500’s. Café’s are marrrveloos as well, they have this natural vintage den-like atmosphere that you can’t possibly create out of scratch, oh how delicious.

You know this was coming: YOU NEED TO VISIT KRAKOW. Capitals and all.

  12. salutations! i just discovered your site via a breadcrumb trail of blogs – more specifically, i read an interview with you, and was refreshed by your not take liberties or shortcuts with electronic language. ’tis a hard thing to come by these days. correct grammar, creative prose, accurate spelling… the gods be praised. your .doc’s and .jpeg’s are perfectly balanced. no, thank YOU.

  17. Hi Shini, thanks for a nice meeting once again and I’m waiting for the next :D
    Did you get my e-mail?

    By the way, in a topic of my “street hunting” methods, hehe: I walk more often than I sit and look at the people – when you walk (especially around Old Town) the probability of catching someone is bigger. There are some places and streets where you can find a lot of stylish people, so I have my special ways. :-)

  18. The necklace is amazing and it really stands out against the blush shirt.
