My dears, thank you for watching! Would you like to see a special New Year video about how I celebrate it 🎄🎅. To support my channel you may here: www.donationalerts.com/r/natashafromrussia

@@natasha-rostova please do!

[@michaelashley5511]

Yes, I would like to see how you celebrate the New Year. Also, I think you dress beautifully and like your music samples. Stay warm.

[@DavidTupling-Gresswell-qq3zo]

On yes!

[@glenrymer877]

I agree with clothes not being an upper priority. Thank you for another great blog. 🤩

[@alanrodriguez210]

God, the food and the decorations at the end of the video look so good 🙌

Jingle Bells even in Russia. I liked the brown jacket that was too expensive at $248. You looked amazing in the white pants and the black jacket. love the lights , very pretty.

[@YamadaSena]

Yes she looks like amazing, but trust me it's nothing when you compare it with her beautiful soul.

[@Donald-u6n]

Hi Natasha: I watched this video and was intrigued by the cultural differences between Russian and North America women. In particular, women like yourself know how to budget and smart shop, and that is practical. Also, I hope that your hunt for an outfit is successful, and regardless of no makeup you still are lovely. Have a Merry Christmas dear lady and an Happy New Year.

[@trevmacc]

Thank you beautiful Natasha,take care

[@MikhailMamontov-c6h]

In the US I always buy summer things in the fall, and I buy winter things on sale in the spring. That would include clothing and shoes, gear for sports, AC and heaters.

[@JeffSchwenke]

The first outfit was the best, Natasha. Familiya reminds me of similar stores in USA like Marshall's and TJ Maxx. I love Greek food also. We have many Greek restaurants here in Chicago where I live (and other cities of Midwest USA like Detroit) and many other restaurants are owned by families of Greek heritage. Gyros is a very popular fast food here, and I'm going to go eat one it for lunch now 😊

[@YamadaSena]

Also you have Serbs there😊

[@bondoqbn7318]

Gorgeous Natasha!

[@cicada9471]

Hi Natasha! Merry Christmas to you too! The price for some of the jackets were nice but expensive. Yes, I wouldn"t spend much on clothes at the moment either... The Greek food looked delish...and affordable for two. Loved the holiday stroll back home topped-off with your wonderful smile!😊 God bless you my dear.🙏🎄

[@Fongolitus]

you make any outfit look good, especially the first one, you make a great model. 😊 pretty much Canada prices at popular stores

[@UKVeteran2024]

OK I admit I skipped to you in the shiney sparkle outfit = beautiful!

[@LarsDcCase]

Have a good Christmas Natasha. Stay warm. Prices have increased in every country. I have seen a jacket like that brown one you showed us for about $150 Canadian dollars. Bear in mind, the Canadian dollar is now about 30 cents less than the U.S. dollar.

[@mdmarko]

No need to have a lot of clothes. Just take care of the clothes you have, keep them clean and neat, and they can last a long time. Merry Christmas!

Как хорошо, что ты упомянула и даты нашего Рождества, и даты, когда мы отдыхаем - мало кто из влоггеров это сделал. И да, в этом году праздники заканчиваются 8.01, все возвращаются на работу и в школы 9.01.

But it’s not just her beauty👍🏻 This is a woman who’d welcome me to russia, recommend a good hotel for me to stay, tell me where to visit historical sites, recommend the best restaurants, and tell me the best methods of transport to-and-from the airport. She doesn’t seek any financial gain, and I admire that. She’s a totally honest women, as far as I can tell from others who’ve been there👍🏻

[@YamadaSena]

You can stay in tent, just find best forest without people, people are danger, not animals always remember that😂

[@bganonimouse2754]

Hey Natasha, in Serbia we kind of celebrate both in terms of holidays at least. Side note: In Belgrade we have young Russians to thank for developing our coffee drinking culture. The culture already exists, but Russians have opened up a number of coffee places with high quality coffee beans. If you are not a coffee snob yet, you have plenty of time to become one. Ethiopian is the best :)

[@YamadaSena]

Неразумем која два празника славимо? Јесте има много Руса, али тужно је што воле оне што хоће да им униште земљу. Воле запад и Американце и мрзе свог председника😢

[@vivek8073]

the weather looks very nice

[@tekpic04]

The report that you did about the increase in price of clothing wear, one aspects of interest to me would be the label of where it was made. Then knock of a 1/3 or 1/2 and that's the real price it should be selling for. I learnt about that during the mid 80's to early 90's how thing's are done.

[@bobgoodall1603]

Thanks

[@natasha-rostova]

Thank you so much 🫶❄️! Wish you amazing holidays 🎄🎅❄️

[@PeterLeonard-z9b]

They are expensive. But i wait until the season changes and buy on sale below half price. My best ever buy was a brand new 1970 Diesel Orange T Shirt for $ 9.00.In a Opp Shop. Its one of the most Trendy things owned. Collectors item.

[@PeterLeonard-z9b]

Hello, from Aus. My wardrobe is overflowing . I bought about $500 worth this year. And the original prices were nearly 3 times that. Sales every where. Its a Bee Hive 🐝 of bargins. Ps. For you . Half a size larger . But then you might need a belt. Oh dear . 🤔

[@fr3sht1lld3ff]

Styling and profiling 😎👍👍

[@ronaldheesakkers5458]

I don't have a lot of clothes either, most of it casual. In terms of price, average (certainly not too high), that is, € 30 to € 40 (in the Netherlands). For example, a pair of jeans will last a year or two. That's fine by me.

[@janroach1852]

So funny to hear Russians playing "Jingle Bells." I am wondering how cold that is. Is there no snow in the winter in Kraznodar? The leaves are still on the trees. The store reminds me of Burlington Coat Factory. Tons of choices. I think those prices are crazy. We can go to discount stores and name brands for less money. And considering your salaries, no, I would not be buying many clothes in Russia, as you do. I like the first outfit. I would have bought the top which you can wear with a skirt. Like the black jacket very much. Did not like the blue dress, awful and baggy, wrinkly, did not fit right. Or the last short set. So yes to the first two. Lunch looked delish, a lot of food. I like the street decorations, very beautiful.

[@mik1984]

I would assume that Chinese fast fashion brands deliver to Russia without issues, as long as the issue with payment processing for online orders has been resolved. The silver crop top would match well with a jean skirt, that would be so Y2K, you would need a flip phone and silver highlighter in eye corners and pink lipstick to match it, and glitter - and everyone would think "damn, did I land in a time machine that took me to back to 2003?" :)

[@YamadaSena]

Chinese cloth cheap but fast broken, who knows about quality.😊

[@juanmiltondeleon297]

First outfit looked great on you. Do you have factory outlet shops where you live?

[@JTCal1000]

The big yellow jacket in the begining is a win lol. plus you can rock a red balloon with it.😊😉

[@AgentXiO]

good stuff and very cheap

[@larryrussell8905]

Love the outfits, great video. Show a night out at maybe a club or other social event if you like.

[@HPCthulhu2011]

Lacoste is expensive in Canada, they have a Lacoste store at the Mall. I don't have any of their clothing but I have Fjallraven and Puma and American Eagle if I want the animal logos. Lately I have shopped at Tommy Hilfiger and the prices are decent just like with Puma or Levi's or Calvin Klein, etc. You can get lots of different brands at Costco, they have a little bit of many different brand names there so it is easy to just shop at Costco and than go specifically to one of the stores at the Mall if you want more of that brand name.

[@DEFENDER-lx2hs]

Crazy Clothing prices and there not even top Western Brands.

[@chieragggoel9999]

[@jeffgreenwaldJLG]

Which park in Krasnodar was that? How does the Galitsky Park look for the holidays?

It isn’t a park, it’s the Krasnaya Street 😊. Galitsky Park is beautiful too

Brother, do they have forest in Krasnodar😊

[@markweaver3352]

I think the way you dress is just fine.

[@korellewilliams8676]

Hello Love Gorgeous as always

[@paulbouvier1997]

Living in Krasnodar with that type of weather is understandable as to why Natasha likes to live there..... Natasha should show us who she is with briefly instead of saying that she is not eating all that much food.... 🤔

[@YamadaSena]

Probably because most hot? She doesn't like to live in polar area😊

[@toddhunter5693]

prices famous international brands everywhere the same so....

[@robfalgiano]

Thanks. I like diesel shirts for men as they’re tapered for a slim fit. But I always buy them on eBay instead of in a shop to save a lot of money. (I live in New York State.) I usually won’t pay more than $30 US for a shirt but if it’s exceptionally nice maybe $40. When I went to the diesel store in New York City several years ago similar shirts cost $150-$250! That’s how much the stores there mark up the same product which can be found elsewhere online. I would assume you’re unable to order items off eBay for shipping to Russia but perhaps when the war ends this will be an option.

[@natasha-rostova]

EBay was very expensive for us even before 2022 because of shipping

[@robfalgiano]

@@natasha-rostovaThat’s too bad. I’ve purchased some items from the UK too. It takes a little more time and the shipping is higher than the US, but not prohibitively so. I don’t know what shipping to or from Russia might cost.

[@Badtaste21]

It's not important to me to have a lot of clothes or a specific brand - and I don't think it is or should be in general. (the luxury brands prices are often quite ridiculous) What is important to me is clothes which are durable and warm. Other than that, it's good to have your own style and wear what makes you comfortable. Though I have to admit, since it gets really cold where I live, I invested in some very warm and sturdy but rather expensive combat boots a few years ago. I'll probably have them for the rest of my life, so the cost is relative. The food looks good. I love Italian food the most (not just pizza heh), but Greek is similar in some ways, so I can relate to that. I also wish you some peaceful and happy days. Take care! :)

[@YamadaSena]

You are right, in my case I do not care what people think about me, so I can wear anything?

[@Hiram8866]

I'm a minimalist as well, like you I use my money wisely. Is there any way to buy used clothes in Russia, I often buy used, originally expensive clothes in local stores or online.

[@williamwhitney6473]

Interesting video. I’m always surprised at how many signs are in English. Is there a large English-speaking population in Russia? Thanks for the tour.

[@natasha-rostova]

No but there are foreign students 😊

[@RusGirlVlog]

it became normal here since the 90s when Western brands came to our country

In shadows deep, where secrets lie, Two paths diverge, one dark, one high. The eagle soars with freedom's might, While the bear prowls in the night. In Langley's halls, the whispers sing, Of liberty and what it brings. A world of knowledge, vast and wide, Where truth and justice do reside. But in the Kremlin's shadowed keep, The secrets there are dark and deep. A world of fear, where trust is thin, And shadows dance on every whim. So choose the path where freedom's light, Illuminates the darkest night. For in the land where eagles fly, The truth will always reach the sky.
