When everyone should stay at home, so do I. Fortunately, I’m passing this quarantine in Istanbul, admiring the Bosporus from my window every day. This sunny and vibrant city is full of history, energy and inspiration. As well as all the books I’ve taken with me: follow me in my readings!
Когда все вынуждены сидеть дома, я тоже не исключение! К счастью, мне повезло проводить карантин в Стамбуле, наслаждаясь видом на Босфор из окон моей квартиры. Это солнечный и насыщенный город полон истории, энергии и вдохновения. Как и книги, которые я взяла с собой в поездку: почитаем вместе?
Elon Musk is my kind of hero: smart, sustainable and thinking about the future. He inspires me to start the day the right way, that’s why I usually read this book dedicated to his career right after I step out of the bed. In the morning I’m lounging in a pair of comfy pyjama pants and my favourite T-shirt.
After lunch, I feel like dressing a little and add some boudoir spirit to my cosy staycation look. I opt for a silk camisole dress and a cashmere cardigan to stay warm, spicing it with a chunky necklace and sexy fur sleepers. In the afternoon I would read some paragraphs from ’21 Lessons for the 21st Century’ by Yuval Noah Harari. This book inspires me to think more consciously about the planet and gives me important advice on how to face the major problems of the contemporary world – just like this Covid19 epidemy.
После обеда мне всегда хочется немного принарядиться и добавить будуарную ноту моему домашнему образу. Я надеваю шелковую комбинацию в компании кашемирового кардигана, чтобы немного утеплиться, и добавляю к этому наряду массивное колье и сексапильные тапочки с мехом. В это время послеобеденной паузы я прочитываю несколько глав из книги ’21 Lessons for the 21st Century’ Юваля Ной Харари. Эта книга вдохновляет меня относиться более сознательно к планете и дает мне важные советы относительно того, как реагировать на главные проблемы современности – как эта эпидемия Covid19, например.

At sunset, just before starting to prepare the traditional evening aperitif, I would change, throwing on a pair of classic blue jeans. I mix them with a khaki linen jacket, inspired by the iconic safari jacket by Yves Saint Laurent. I charge myself with the energy of art, reading about the main artistic avant-garde movements of the XX century by Italian art critic Mario de Micheli.
На закате, перед тем как начать готовить вечерний аперитив, я переодеваюсь в джинсы, в которых я чувствую себя менее по-домашнему. Я сочетаю их с льняным жакетом цвета хаки, вдохновляясь знаменитым блейзером-сафари Ива Сен-Лорана. Я заряжаюсь энергией искусства, читая о авангардистских арт-течениях ХХ века итальянского критика Марио де Микели.

Your partner takes a good photo of you. The color of your hair changes in some photos? You like fashion, while you are on quarantine, I suggest you read The American Psycho. It’s a bit dark but the fashion and style elements might be your ‘cup of tea’
Stay safe
