More Snow

For a change, there is something to look and wonder at by the window - it's been snowing again!

I'm a winter child and cannot get bored by snow. I'm always amazed when it falls, the flakes never cease to amaze me, whether they are fluffy and heavy, or small and crystal-like.

I will never forget when I first realised snowflakes look like tiny flowers, standing in the sandpit in nursery school. It's one of my first memories and sense of awe I felt then will remain with me forever.

We took a walk by a small lake today and saw this mini-snowman, perfect in every detail!

This dress was soooo cheap, probably because nobody else thought it was actually wearable... The collar remind me of snowflakes. :)

Wearing: Invázió dress, thrifted hat, Topshop skirt (an actual pregnancy item),

Tell Me Your Dreams

Well, you know I've been dreaming of snow... Finally, it's been snowing all weekend!
I'm so happy! :)







































I had to run out with my tripod to snap a few pictures! Then I put on one more sweater and picked up my umbrella to fend against the wind, and set off for a lovely, wonderful, beautiful, snow-filled walk in the Castle.






































The Castle District oozes history, there are always moments I feel I could be in another century.






































Or a few decades back... Being told off for wandering into a side street by the president's residence by soldiers was a major let down... I hope we're not becoming a police state! Come on, I don't think I look anything like a terrorist. A girl with a see-through umbrella and a camera surely isn't a major threat.






































There weren't many tourists about but those who dared the icy wind were in for a sure treat...






































Look at the Chain Bridge!







































And the Parliament behind a curtain of snow...





















Ah, bliss! :)

Wearing: Doc Martens, Jeans Club sweater, Takko jeans, New Yorker coat, 

C&A circle scarf, umbrella from an underpass. (I wore a few more layers, rest assured! :)

Illustrated Shoot - Snowing Inside

It's snowing inside me but it would be wonderful if it snowed outside too!






































This winter we only saw about half an hour of snowfall, and I dearly miss watching snowflakes glisten in the halo of streetlights and seeing kids sleighing down the slope near to our flat.






































One of my first memories is standing in the garden of the nursery school and watching the snow fall on my coat, then looking closely and realising that it was made up of tiny, symmetric starshaped crystals...






































Then when I was in primary school, one year the first snow fell on my birthday and my father said he organised it for me. I was so happy!





















I also remember walking the streets of Budapest with my first boyfriend and realising that heavy snowflakes cast little shadows on the ground - you can see the snowflake and its shadow nearing towards each other as they fall.






































At least in my memories I can always see the snow!
