Siberia- the real expedition clothes



Siberia, Krasnoyarsk january 2013 - Fishing man dontown-


Expedition is the winter word in fashion these days with the fall winter pre-collections etc. and watching the pastiche clothes I could only think of nouveau riche homes in comparison to the Toscana old palazzos. 
This chap here is coming back from a working fishing day on the Yenisei River in Siberia where he sat fishing at -25. He is wearing Valenki boots made of felt. Yes UGG are original indeed.

Siberia - the Mondrian bird



Le jaseur boreal or bohemian waxwing in English, the coolest bird in Siberia. I wonder if Mondrian was a birdwatching aficionado. Bygones. These birds present in all northern countries are all over the town eating rowan and singing being one of the reasons we would look up from the icy pavement or the warmth of the wool scarf in harsh winter days.
