Kick-ass caps!

Well, caps are so essential to an RG girl's wardrobe that I've devoted an entire label to them.  However, I thought it might be fun to pick out my favorite caps, especially after Blizia posted a pic of this awesome one!  (I want it!)

She and Nazar certainly have several kick-ass caps!

 Of course, the snarky brat has some fun caps (literally)...

Dasha Kukushkina & Makar

...and I am especially fond of this one, since it seems to perfectly evoke her smart-ass personality.

I also think these GIRL/BOY caps are really fun...

 ...and here is one of my most favorite "captastic" pics.

Good luck at the World Championships!!

The girls are currently in Kiev competing at the World Championships!!  GOOD LUCK!!  UDACHI~!!

It's really strange to see a world team without Zhenya, Dasha D or Dasha K though!
Before they left, Ul, Donechka, and Dasha Kukushkina went to Novogorsk to visit the group girls and wish them good luck.  How sweet!  (And of course they took some hilarious photos.)

Here are some collages...

Sadly, the group girls couldn't make it out because they're stuck in training.  But the really shocking absence was that of Ul's partner-in-crime/Siamese twin/BFF--Makar!!  UNACCEPTABLE!!  (Well, okay, maayyybe she had a good excuse, but we'll get to that in the next post.)
And here are some photos of the people at the party other than with Ul:

Karaoke, RG style!

The girls (and especially Dasha D) seem to be hanging out a lot with Matya (Ekaterina Malygina) recently!  Last week, they all went out for some karaoke!

Singing at the karaoke club wasn't enough, so Dasha D, Makar and Samishka continued in the car...

...and some other time, they were singing at their favorite hangout, La PLAGE!
