If leisure is a state of mind, I’m as far away from that state as ever. But it doesn’t stop me from reminiscing on my Cuba vacation – those long hours spent on the sunny beach with a light book in my hand. My days are still sunny but the books have gotten a lot heavier and my looks more conservative. Sometimes my mind drifts from actus reus and mens rea to that Cuban state of lightness.
What I’m wearing:
- Chiffon blouse by “YA-YA Aflalo” (last seen in May 4’10)
- Straw pumps by “Betsey Johnson” (last seen in Aug. 12’10)
- Santorini large straw tote by “Michael Kors” (last seen in July 31’10)
- Reversible cloth bag (beach blanket) by “Xpat” (made out of recycled Missoni fabric) (last seen in Aug. 9’10)
- Long crystal earrings (last seen in Nov. 24’09)
- Chunky chain ring by “Luc Kieffer” (last seen in Aug. 4’10)
- Bikini by “Vitamin A”
For my Russian Readers:
Если досуг-это особое состояние ума, вызванное долгими часами, проведенными на солнечным берегу с лёгким чтивом в руках, то сейчас я, как никогда, далека от этого состояния. Дни все еще солнечные, но книги намного потяжелелее и одежда консервативнее. Иногда мой ум дрейфует из actus reus и mens rea в состояние легкости и беззаботности Кубинских каникул.
The blouse works as a great cover up. Love the idea.
Thanks. Actually I just thought of that on this trip and it was nice to see that once you wear a garment that isn’t normally intended for the beach in a certain way – it often looks just as appropriate for it.
Lida, you look gorgeous! You know how to keep a swimsuit shoot classy
Cuba looks gorgeous…can’t wait for summer to arrive here in Australia!

Oh you did, good good. I’m glad everything was ok with the shipping. I was so used to Canada Post and it was my first time using an American service so I was a worried there might be a hold up or something.
Nope I got it and there were no complications! I LOVE it and it goes with this top I just bought! I will take a pic and email it to you when I wear it! Thanks lady!
