Emma Watson on Vogue UK December 2010

And speaking of Emma Watson, are you looking forward to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1? I really can't wait and I already booked the tickets.

My Style Icons

I told you about my passion for Keira Knightley and Emma Watson style. Here are the others. From bloggers and celebrities to ordinary girls - they're all people who've influenced my view of fashion. I wish I could be one of them... :)

(it's not lined in order of their importance for me)

1) Erika Marie from Fashion Chalet. I'm sure there's no need of introduction... :) I love that not only her outfits, but the photos of them are just perfect!

2) Dylana Suarez (Nana In Wonderland)

Her style is flawless but she could wear anything and she would still look like a fairy...

3) Ana (High Street Cardigans). She's beautiful and she really knows what looks best on her. She can combine smart and crazy and she always looks great.

4) My friend Ája. She's not a blogger, I took these photos from facebook. I love that she can make a lot out of nothing - she doesn't shop at famous designers but knows a lot about bargains and second-hand stores. And her outfits always content something floral so I cannot but love her style.

5)Clémence Poésy. You might know her as Fleur from Harry Potter or from the Paris fashion weeks. Her style is pure and simple and very Chanel-influenced. Impossible not to love!

And who are your biggest style icons?

Ondine

I don't know how much you've heard about this Irish movie - it seems to me that it's had quite big introduction in the media but it's hard to get to see it. At least here in Czech Republic: I saw an Ondine poster about three weeks ago and thought it could be interesting, then read a review and I decided to go and watch it. I've seen great reviews on the movie in a lot of magazines and websites and I was becoming more and more eager to see it. All my hopes broke down when I found out that it's almost impossible to find a cinema to see it. Finally I found ONE SINGLE CINEMA IN WHOLE PRAGUE with Ondine in the programm and there were only two presentations! It's a shame, really, because it's a wonderful movie!

The story is about an ex-alcoholic, fisherman called Syracuse (Colin Farrell). He lives alone in a small Irish seaport town, he's divorced and has a daughter who lives with her still drinking mother. One day he catches a beautiful woman (Aicja Bachleda Curus) in his net, seemingly drowned. When she starts to breathe and choke he wants to take her to the doctor but she refuses. For some reason she doesn't want anybody to see her or even know about her and when Syracuse asks her about her name, she says 'You can call me Ondine. That means "She came from the sea"'. He shows her a deserted cottage and there she lives in secret.
Later, Syracuse tells his daughter Annie a story about a fisherman who caught a mysterious woman instead of fish and she recognizes that the story is true. Short after that Annie follows her father to the cottage and meets Ondine. Annie is under the impression that Ondine is a selkie, a seal woman who came to live on land and who can stay for seven years if she finds her seal coat and buries it. It's really hard not to believe it when Ondine swims like a mermaid, sings above the sea and the usually empty nets are full of fish. Whether she is or isn't a selkie, I won't tell you. The end might be shocking in a bit unexpected and strange way but that doesn't change my opinion. If you still have the possibility, watch Ondine. You won't regret!

Emma Watson Pixie.

OK I know this is a bit old but I had almost no internet access couple last weeks.

I wanna hear your opinion!

I'm in love with the pixie haircut (and Emma Watson, like I said so many times) but I'm not brave enough to wear it and as long as my hair is long and quite wavy and the shorter it is, the more curly it becomes, I don't think I'll ever have the guts to cut my hair like that.

My other favourite celeb pixies

Outfit Posts YES or NO

I've been told that I should do more personal style posts. I'm not really sure about that.
Firstly, I've got nobody to take the pictures and I don't like taking pictures of myself. The results are mostly disastrous.
Secondly, I don't even have time to take the photos.
Thirdly, I'm totally unhappy about my figure at the moment.
And fourthly, my closet is full of things but I usually wear only what I think is most comfortable for the day. Or when I like something, I wear it all the time. And I don't own many pieces of designer clothes, in fact, almost no. I'm a H&M, Zara and vintage person.

BUT

I've got some older photos to share with you and I'll do so as the days'll grow colder because they're winter photos. And some of them are a bit crazy.

Sometimes I really wish I could take outfit photos but have no time or courage. I think I'll make outfit posts once a while (a great while maybe?). With a little help from my friends.

Yesterday/today (not sure what the time was) I said goodbye to some of the most beautiful people I've ever met. It was a group of Americans from the state of NY spending here less than two weeks. I haven't cried like that since... never mind. I thought something like that was impossible but I feel like these are the friendships to last forever.

I went to drown my tears to Tretter's Bar Prague. I must say it's really awesome. I f you ever visit Prague, don't forget to stop by!

I'll upload some pictures (not just from the bar) later.

And yes, you guys have no Zara in New York? Is it possible? My American friends say they've never seen Zara but they totally fell in love with it at the moment they entered and wanted to come back (at the time we did so, it was closed already). No wonder ;).

Diane Kruger style

Picture from Lily Sometimes: I read about this movie only the good, it had standing ovations in Cannes, mainly thanks to Ludivine Sagnier (on the left) and Diane Kruger. I really want to see it when it hits Czech theates (if it ever does). But as a right girl I'm always interested in the looks and here I was really surprized how good Diane looks without make-up (they shot the movie without a make-up artist). She's beautiful, obviously, but most stars look absolutely different and far worse than on the red carpet when they don't wear tons of make-up. Bravo, Diane!
Speaking of her, I have to share some photos of her style. She's really one of my favourites. Her red-carpet-style is defined mostly by interesting, sometimes rather complicated mini-dresses. She never fails.
