Warm summer nights

Zara dress & earrings made by me :)

Here's a pair of earrings I made last summer. They remind me of warm summer nights in Paris.. :) I can't believe it's soon been one year since I moved back to Finland. I really miss it sometimes, but at the same time I'm really happy to be here. And Paris isn't going anywhere... :)

(Is it just me or does my eyelashes look insanely long in this picture...?) :D

Midsummer

 

This weekend we celebrated Midsummer in Finland. It's the biggest holiday after Christmas and always lots of fun. This year we went to our summer house by the sea. I invited my friends and we had a great weekend eating insane amounts of good food, playing games, going by boat to nice places, fishing (the guys), swimming, etc. :) Some friends stayed until Sunday, so we really had the whole weekend to enjoy ourselves! :)

Thank you guys for making it a great weekend!! :)

Whyred


The summer sales started on Sunday, so me and my sister went to have a look. I found this perfect mustard yellow t-shirt and fuchsia colored dress from the Swedish brand Whyred! :) Yesterday I wore the dress when I met a friend for drinks. It's so cute and comfortable!

Now I'm back home after a really good dinner with my work colleges that we (or actually they) made. :)

Saturday night out



On Saturday night I felt like staying at home and watch a movie, but my friend Fanny managed to get me out of bed and out on the town. :) We went out for drinks and had a great time. I was wearing my favorite lipstick from Lumene, which makes any tired face look good. :)

Butterflies

 Butterfly earrings I've made some time ago

This morning I was a bit nervous, because I had my first day at my new job today (already)! Everything went great, I learned a lot and got to know some of the nice people I will be working with. :) The only bad thing about this job is that I probably will buy lots of shoes I really don't need. But I think you can never have enough shoes anyway.. :)

Now I have to go, my friend Jeanette is here!

I got the job!


Lindex jacket, Ralph Lauren shirt, Longchamp bag, H&M pants, Din Sko shoes & my own made jewellery

Today I wore my new favorite shoes from Sweden. It seemed like a good choice, until the rain started pouring down.. I had an interview in the afternoon and I got the job!! :) I'm one of the three persons starting to work there, chosen out of the 500 that applied.

I already work at a PR-agency part-time, but I wanted to find something else too and now I did! :) It's at a shoe store in the center. Perfect since I love shoes.

Yesterday the summer party was a lot of fun! :D Now my friend Fanny is coming over, we're watching Black Swan. Can't believe I haven't seen it yet!

Have a good evening!

Leopard Love

Cuties
Coolest eyeshadow ever!!

I want to paint my room leopard! :)
Love
I'm in love :)

Hello.

It feels like I haven't done anything this week.. The weather has just been so depressing that I've really had no motivation for doing anything else than work and sleep. After today I have a long weekend off work though, so lots of time to come up with fun things to do! :) And I will start by going to our work's summerparty soon. :)

These wonderful pictures are from Pinterest. <3

Stockholm

 
H&M dress, Swarovski necklace & Crocs ballerinas

On Friday me and my boyfriend fell totally in love with Stockholm. I've been there many many times before, but this time it felt different somehow. We walked around in areas I've never been to before, far from the tourist areas and we had a great time! :)

We found this perfect place to have lunch at, GĂ„rden, which is an open air bar and grill in the middle of a park. It was really beautiful and perfect for the warm and sunny weather this weekend. I also did some shopping, bought for example some really cool shoes.. :)

Can't wait to go back there soon again! <3

I'm on a boat

Pictures from the first night


On Thursday me and my boyfriend went on a cruise to Stockholm. We had so much fun on the boat, and especially in Stockholm! I love that city! <3 

The first night we spent on the ferry. The weather couldn't have been better, so we enjoyed many hours in the sun. :)
 
Now I just arrived to my parent's place to look at my baby (cat).

Pineapple dress

Marimekko dress & Guess purse

This is what I looked like on my brother's 15th birthday party yesterday. (Can't believe he's 15 already and that he's much taller than me!!) I bought this Marimekko dress a couple of years ago, but I still like it a lot. It's really cute and fits this season's fruit print fashion perfectly! :)

Now I'm ready to go out in the sun. Ciao! <3

Mermaid baby's clothes gone missing

                  TERHI HEINO: Sculptures and Installations


I went to this funny and slightly bizarre exposition last weekend. The small pants and blouse were really cute and made of fish fins! The plastic decorations on the wall were also really beautiful. There were some tree branches with teeth (plastic I guess :/) attached to them, which was a bit creepy though. But at least the exposition was creative and everything but boring. This exposition was at Korjaamo and ended yesterday.

Have a great beginning of the week <3

Picnic in the park



It's been a really good weekend! Yesterday we had the best picnic in the park with wine, cheese, ice cream and good company. :) Later we went out and danced our asses off in Kappeli.

The weather has been ridiculously good. I haven't done much today, except laying on the beach.. Now I'm watching one of my favorite movies from my childhood, Hook. It's so good that I'm all teared up..

Have a good Sunday evening!

What lies beneath the shell



Today I wore a ring I've made some months ago. I'm really fond of it, because it's made of a stone I found on the beach in South of France. :) I don't like polishing stones for rings or other jewelry at all, because it's a lot of work, but it pays off in the end when you see the result. I was a bit disappointed though, because the stone was bright yellow on the outside when I found it. My teacher told me it was due to pollution in the ocean, hmm...

It's been a really relaxing wonderful day. I've spent most of the time outside in the park. I'm really happy I've finally got some color to my before so pale skin! :)

Lecture dans le parc


H&M shortsdress, Crocs ballerinas & Ray-Ban sunglasses

Today the weather was lovely! I took out my dusty book from the bookshelf and started my summer reading for this year. I already started reading this book last summer, but never really had the time to read more than a few pages. Maybe the fact that I was in Paris the whole summer had something to do with that.. :) I bought it partly because of its cute cover, but the inside is also quite interesting and it keeps my French up to date.

I haven't done much today except working and chilling in the park. Even my cat got to come out and play in the park. :)
