There is a welcome chill in the air, cider is waiting for us on the tables, it is harvest time in the vineyards, we are impatiently waiting for the first chestnut picnics and nature is changing its colors to wonderfully warm shades. Welcome autumn! Today is the first day of autumn, the day when night and day are of equal length. And since we know that there are quite a few fans of this season, we decided to give some tips to celebrate the first day of autumn and remember what it is that we love most about autumn.

Music, fashion and art shorten the days; open-heartedness, open-mindedness and open hands invite everything new, good and beautiful, which is sometimes written on paper, and sometimes drawn. Feet on the ground, head in the clouds.
We all love Nutella, but no one likes the sticky fingers that usually result from "stealing" this sweet delight straight from the jar. But let's not despair - help is coming soon, in the form of cookies that we put on our fingers. Italian designer Paolo Ulian is behind the genius way of "stealing" Nutella.
Regardless of whether we are famous, obsessed with fashion, sports enthusiasts, lovers of good food or adventurers - we all try to post the best possible picture of ourselves and our surroundings on Instagram. But what is the truth? Perhaps it is this satirical series of photos that shows how unsuspecting people lie on Instagram that sets us up for a lie.
In 2010, as part of the Clean Slovenia event, Urška Pirc was invited to participate in a fashion show, for which she had to make clothes from already used material. She did not choose textiles, but something completely different. She opted for inner tubes. Today, five years later, with its trademark Black Z-duck, it delights fashion enthusiasts with handbags, belts, wallets and other small products made of recycled rubber. This year she presented her new Road collection.
The best-paid models in the world for 2015 have been revealed - Forbes has compiled a list of twenty-one models who are among the highest earners in the world of the fashion industry. The girls have already won the genetic lottery, but which one shows the best financially?
A young team from Velenj, led by Elvis Halilović, won the American Kickstarter with the Ondu Pinhole project. The first edition of Pinhole Cameras in 2013 raised over fifty thousand US dollars in just seven days, which was five times more than the desired funds. Two years later, Slovenian wooden cameras with even more sophisticated "wooden technology" wrote a new success story on Kickstarter.
Kickstarter is an online platform where various products and projects of budding creators collect public funds by convincing investors to provide them with funds to start a business. And since there is no recession for ideas even in Slovenia, quite a few brave and optimistic Slovenian individuals or teams went to Kickstarter with their projects. Some were more, others less successful, but this did not stop their business journey. This time, we present the most popular Slovenian projects on Kickstarter, which gained enough supporters and funds to start successful production.
The Extreme Minuet is an incredibly fast and precise performance of one of Mozart's minuets, where 43 people throw coins into cups. It only takes two seconds! How is this possible?
Australian designer Dion Lee drove the American audience crazy at New York Fashion Week with a type of jewelry you've never seen before. When the models walked down the catwalk, they weren't wearing headbands or piercings of any kind, but a custom-made piece of metal that perfectly shaped the face. And this piece of metal became a trend the moment it appeared!
Even when celebrities pose in tracksuits, with their hair tied up and no makeup, their photos come out a little better than ours. Australian comedian Celeste Barber has turned this unfortunate reality into a funny photo series on Instagram, where she puts her recreations next to pictures of the stars - all under the "hashtag" #celestechallengeaccepted.
If you could change anything about our partner's appearance, even if only on the computer screen, what would it be? Well, the team at Buzzfeed has the answer, as they hired a professional photo retoucher to help couples edit the pictures to their liking. The results are quite funny!
A young couple from Slovenia hides under the name Gipsy and Clown. Both are experienced designers in the field of textiles, big fans of extreme sports, nature and animals. They are excited by the desire to make wearable "streetwear" products that can beautify and make everyday life easier. After two years of testing, a unique belt has been developed that breathes with us - Easy Life Belt or Belt for Life, which has a positive effect on people's everyday life. However, Jaka and Janja will try to make everyday people around the world more beautiful through the Kickstarter platform.
