Everything is much better when it gets warm











It's just early may, but these last days felt like summer, as the temperature was up to 20 degrees (at least, it felt like it!), and it was sunshine all the way. How lovely it is to feel warmness again, and how everything and (almost) everyone seems changed in the presence of sun and heat. I haven't seen that many bare arms and legs (myself included) in over 7 months, it's sort of a funny feeling when one notices a shirtless guy walking in the street and a girl in her nude shoulders sitting alone in the middle of the city hall square at noon. We went to a little forest for a stroll and saw a hare. The little animal couldn't notice our presence immediately and ran towards us. It stayed still for a while, probably a little scared, and after it ran and we couldn't see it no longer. Also cute to see a pigeon on top of a cherry blossom tree, it was eating something on the top, unlike most of the others out there, in the city, eating from the ground. Cherry blossom trees are particularly something that makes my eyes glow like a kid in a candy store, as in Natal, where I lived in Brazil, there are not such trees. I hope this real spring feeling stays through the entire month.

I looove the pictures. And I got the exact same feeling a couple weeks ago when looking at so many bare legs and arms after such a long time. I told my brother who was with me at the moment, "don't you feel weird?" and he was just like "huh?" so I'm glad I'm not the only crazy one, haha.

Jimena said...

Oh...!

Cherry blossom trees! We can't see any here in Peru either. They are so lovely. I might move somewhere else just to start spring with their pink beautiful flowers.

Is that a lovely lovely bag I'm seeing hanging from your shoulder?

I answered your tag, it was so much fun, I keep thinking of new quirks and wonder, am I really that weird?

I love the flowers, rabbit,
sunglasses, bracelets, shoes,
the pidgeon in the tree.

I love the way the
french say pidgeon, not
"pid-jin" like Americans
but pee-jhone, soft as
a whispered breeze
against a bare shoulder.

That hare is HUGE. I stumble across rabbits on my campus all the time but they're the small, fluffy kind.

I'd never seen charry trees before either except once in the hills...they really are beautiful in bloom.

Beautiful pictures.

Romeika said...

Rita, I'M GLAD, I'm not the only one to feel weird in this sea of bare skin;-)

Jayne, so crazy you had snow last week! And then I complain about danish weather sometimes hehe...

Jimena, this red Chanel style bag is one of my best finds this year so far. Gonna check ur quirks later!

AND Danish Spring-Summer seems to be singularly Enchanting !!! "Nature in Bloom", with pastoral "néo-romantiques" effluents . . .

Cordially, Antoine

Romany said...

Absolutely gorgeous post. Seriously.
Is this all your photography, if so then you've got a real talent!
Great post, Rom (hehe)! ;)

Aisha said...

oooh romeika I love that you're finally showing pictures of your outfits!

I've never seen hares in real time!

Times of Glory said...

It is soooo beautiful! The sunny weather makes everything much more beautiful! I love Cherry Blossom trees which are very pretty and romantic ...

Romeika said...

Juliet, it was actually colder in march than during the entire winter, which wasn't less than zero during day time, so it wasn't that bad. There was no snow storm, I really wanted to have loads of snow..

Antoine, I really love this land when spring turns this beautiful:-)

Romany, thanks! And yeah, I took all these pics, except the ones of myself.

Aisha, I was a little shy to do so, but since it's also a style blog, why not? I'm posting it more on flickr, where I share it on wardrobe remix, which is a great photo group, one of my favs.

Thank you all so much for the comments!!! :-)

The flowers are soooooo beautiful.

And your little white dress is really cute. I enjoy warmer weather but here it is getting warmer and warmer

Romeika said...

Olimpia, I know the feeling, when it gets super hot is not nice either, although superhot is better than supercold:-) The dress is from Zara, glad u like it;-)

Cupcakes and Cashmere said...
