Royal blue and gold go really well together, though. Very classy. Bordeaux red might work, but then you need wood paneling.

Even wine coloured reds run the risk of coming off as garish if the room isn't carefully designed around them. Too much effort for me, personally.
Though, if you're not willing to go with wood paneling, regardless of most colour choices, why even bother?

Eh, i don't know about blue. A darker shade of green would make all the difference. Maybe make the gold a bit brighter and less mustard colored too.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

If you ever get a chance to go to a Russian party/ drink with them I would highly recommend it. The ones I know have a great sense of humour and are very self deprecating. I am friends with a few and they are all loving crazy in a really good way. When they cook a meal, it's a feast. When they argue, they kick your teeth in. When they laugh and sing its deafening usually something ridiculous and lasts forever, when they drink, it's all night and everyone gets plastered. When they gently caress, they gently caress your brains out. The ones I know are immigrants in Europe and are just cool loving people. If you ever get a chance, party with some Russians. You will have some scars and maybe a criminal record but it's worth it. The guys I know are the kindest most welcoming folks you'll ever meet and very inclusive and generous. They are all in kinda 30's-40's and grew up under the curtain which is really weird when you see the family photos. They are very open minded and often have gay friends over. Every country has it's freaks and weirdos and it's fun to laugh at them. But it's not the majority by a long shot

It's actually because it's a common mafia scam, basically someone leaps in front of car and demands a bribe to forget about the whole thing.

The massive amount of insurance scams is why we can enjoy so many slav dashcam videos.

It's like this, Peanut
HERE IS HOW YOU TAKE SHOTS WITH RUSSIANS

YOU WILL NEED:
Bottles of vodka
Loaves of black rye
Olives and salted fish and any other food that's salty as gently caress

Okay first we all get a glass. You have a glass? You do not have a glass. Fill him a glass. Okay, now we all have a shot. Everyone I want you to take a piece of bread. Do not eat it, just take the bread okay? Okay. Now you do what I do. When you drink the vodka you smell the bread. Do not eat it, just smell it. WHAT DID I SAY DO NOT EAT JUST SMELL. Like this. Now you are done with the drink, go to the food and eat everything you can.

You did not do so well at this. I think you should practice one more time.
