Latvian fashion through L'Officiel Latvija video diaries. 

Let me be honest with you once again, I wrote like three different drafts that were meant to come as an introduction or supportive kind of text for today's story. Too many thoughts about Riga Fashion Week, especially about the latest session. And all highly contradictory. Nothing seems to be appropriate enough for this video diaries (slash) reviews.
So let me just say that I'm not covering Riga Fashion Week this season, at all. Not a single review regarding even the collections I liked and found interesting are going to pop any time soon. Priorities changed. And due to high volume of stories that are now being planned a month or two ahead my publishing schedule is pretty tight.
The good news are, we still managed to find a way for you to look at bits and pieces of this latest Riga Fashion Week and form own opinion. Together with some of L'Officiel Latvija team members we came to a conclusion that their video diaries can also be broadcasted at Practical Queen AP. Regarding the fact you don't really understand Latvian or Russian, you still can watch these diaries for the sake of the visual side. Have a great time, digital pumpkinitos!
