One basic rule of fashion is always about having an elegant balance to your outfits, and this will only go perfectly with this mixing technique if you understand the balance between scales, colors, and themes of the patterns. When you’re mixing your own patterns, look for a connection. It could be a color, a shape, or a silhouette.
The key is to stick with only two prints and pair your outfit with basic solid accessories, such as a bag, belt, jewelry, or heels. Or you may mix two similar-scaled prints—but not two super-big ones—as long as you break it up with something solid. Make sure your patterns and textures won’t compete with each other.
Theoretically, mixing textures and prints can be a daunting task, which often results in the wrong combinations that don’t look that good. This is why most people say they’d never do it. But seriously, with lots of practice and if done correctly, you can get out of your comfort zone and mount amazing looks using the technique of mix and Match.
This technique is pretty easy to do if you’re willing to think outside the box and take style risks. Not to mention, it has the added bonus of extending the versatility of the wardrobe you already have.
So, here is a perfect way to mix patterns and textures.

Growing up as a woman, has been a top challenge for me. I never knew how beautiful it was to be a woman not until I started trying to be an independent Woman.I admire lots of women who showed power influence from the holy book of the Bible. So I want to use this medium to encourage all the women in the world, to learn to support each other, having in mind that each and every one of us have our different role to play in life, we should not be in competition with one another rather try to be a better person as the morning breaks. You all are appreciated.
Happy Women's day.
Today, I am wearing an absolutely amazing outfit of mine,which I love so much. Who knew waist-training could be so fashionable. Waist trainers and corsets are now for fitness and fashion and this is fun to try.
A corset is a garment worn to hold and train the torso into a desired shape for aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it or with a more lasting effect). Both men and women are known to wear corsets, though this item was for many years an integral part of women's wardrobes. ref:wikipedia.

The memorial complex of Glory is located in Lisopark, which during the war years became a place of mass executions of inhabitants, guerrillas and soldiers. One of its fields was a huge common grave – exactly at this place later was built The Memorial of Glory. Alley framed by two pylons is leading to the Motherland statue, and at her foot an eternal flame burns. Further, there are tables engraved with the names of people who rested there. In this place sounds the heartbeat of the people who fought for their land and their people to victory. On the Victory day here are coming thousands of Kharkovites, to lay flowers in memory of the victims.
The stately Glory Memorial was unveiled in the Forest Park in 1977. It immortalizes the undying exploits of the Soviet people fighting the Nazism (which is the ideology and practice associated with the 20th-century German Nazi Party and Nazi Germany, as well as other far-right groups).

The Complex of Glory immortalized the immortal and unforgettable feat of Soviet citizens in the fight against the Nazi invaders. At this northern city limit the Nazis executed and shot tens of thousands of Soviet soldiers, partisans and underground fighters, prisoners of war and patriots, who refused to submit to the enemy.
During the Great Patriotic War the residents of Kharkov showed the enviable courage, bravery and heroism. They stoically fought against the oppression of the conquerors, together with other citizens of the former Soviet Union and gave their lives for the peaceful life of their descendants. In honor of these soldiers there were erected three steles with dropped down cast banners. On one stele there is the inscription, which is to remind present and future generations about the great feat of the Soviet people: "In the battles for Kharkov 186 306 Soviet soldiers died a hero’s death".
Tho spring is just around the corner its still cold and I cant stop dreaming of summer, it just gonna be the best summer ever.

Fashion has a thing in common which is the minimalist style trend. This goes beyond fashion extends it hands to architecture and interiors. This look is mostly composed of plain and simple fabrics. It can be so basic.
Minimalist style is very basic so paying attention to details is very important.
shape and a seriously practical spectrum of utilitarian colors that go with literally everything you own already. If your fashion approach has always been "less is more," join the gang.
Styled this look, layered up but looks really light and simple, this is a basic key to minimalism.

Aleksey Nikolayevich received an excellent education. At the same time he attended M. D. Ivanova-Rayevskaya's Artist School and after that in Petersburg Arts Academy. His education was topped with the dissertation thesis completion, which in 1894 brought him the title of Architecture Academician.
Beketov died on 23 November 1941. He left us about one hundred various buildings, and one of the most magnificent of them is the building of Kharkov research institute of microbiology and immunology named after I. I. Mechnikov.
The first Beketov building, which decorated Kharkov, was the Commercial School. After this work, which brought success to the novice, the young architect constructed a whole series of bank buildings. The projects were ordered by the leaders of the roughly developing Kharkov business and industry -- today's buildings of the Automotive Technical School, The Houses of Techniques, the Puppet-Show and others.
According to the status of Petersburg's Academy of Arts, an architect with 3 years construction experience could choose an item and work on a project to receive the rank of Academician of Architecture. Beketov decided to take on the project of a public library with 1.5 million volumes, with reading halls, an art gallery, storehouse and numismatic hall. Beketov completed this grand work in only 9 months. In 1894 the Scientist Soviet gave him the rank of Academnician. The building of the library can be called a gift to Kharkov of "a perfect creation.
Buildings Created By Beketov1889 - Medical office (Poltavsky Shlyakh, 12)
Darvina (Darwin) Street was established in the mid-19th century and was initially called Sadovo-Kulikovska, as named after its landlords, the Kulikovskys, who owned vast lands in this area. When the massive construction started here, as the Technological Institute was being built, they sold most of their land to the city. In the early 20th century a range of mansions was built in the street, including the Governor’s Mansion and Governor’s Office.
The buildings in Darvina Street have been well preserved and are of special interest for those fond of old architecture.
Built in the style of Neorenaissance, 9, Darvina Steet is a former house of merchant Ryzhov (designed by V. Velichko, 1912). This is one of the few mansions of the city which preserved its initial outlook. During the early years of Soviet power, it housed the Extraordinary Commission for Fighting Counterrevolution, Speculations and Sabotage. Later it became home to the All-Ukrainian Society of Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries. Since 1934 it has become the House of Architects.
Situated next to it is a former mansion of English Consul Charles Blacky, now housing the House of Artists (designed by V. Gaush, 1911).

13, Darvina Steet is a mansion previously owned by D. Alchevsky, biology professor of Kharkiv University. The designer (A. Beketov) described the style of the building as Mauritanian. It used to house the Society of Working Women Mutual Help, the first mixed gymnasium for boys and girls and now it is home to Ukrainian-British College.
Further on, the architectural complex of the street resembles that of a small European town. 21 and 23, Darvina St. were designed by A. Beketov in 1901–1903 in the style of Neorenaissance. A very interesting building designed in the style of Modern by V. Rzhepyshevsky for a stage director N. Sinelnikov was built in 1914. Close to it (31, Darvina St.) is the house designed by V. Velichko for his family. At the end of the street there is a mansion designed by A. Beketov in 1912 (37, Darvina St.). Besides A. Beketov, painters M. Pestrikov and N. Samokish used to live there at different times.
