Peace & Love




 
shirt - Mango
pants - H&M
scarf - Cubus
bracelet - JC
earrings - gift from a friend

 
 

 


 
This is actually my outfit from Sunday but now that school has started again I've been busy with homework an stuff... Anyway, I didn't feel very well on Sunday (and now I'm sick...) so I wanted to add some bright colors to cheer me up. I borrowed my sister's scarf. I love it's colors! The blue pants also brought nice twist to the outfit. All the colors remind me of the spring:). I can hardly wait for it to come!

Fashion desires


I decided to do a little bit different blog post this time (new year, new style kind of thing). I collected pictures of things that I'd like to buy (or get) this year. I probably won't get them all but it's nice to at least dream about them:). And I necessarily don't want these specific items they are just samples.




 
 
I would want to buy some nice pair of flat winter boots because I don't own any pair at the moment. It might be a bit late now because spring comes quite soon but maybe I buy boots still if I find nice ones.
                
ballerinas - Bronx (Brandos.fi)
 
My goal for next summer is to find pretty, leather ballerinas. Last summer I just simply couldn't find any nice pair... I really hope I have better luck this summer!
leather skirt - Polyvore
 
It would be awesome to get a leather skirt (made of real leather)! But there is a little problem...The skirts made of real leather are VERY expensive. With luck you can find a skirt for a hundred euros but not really below that. Well, at least I can always dream about it:). And hey, who knows someday I might be a happy owner of a leather skirt. (And I'm really sorry I couldn't find the exact link to the skirt anymore...)
 

 
jeans - H&M
 
I just LOVE the color of these jeans! It's so fresh and it reminds me of spring and summer. I'm not a big fan of pink but sometimes it can be a real power color. I will definitely buy a pair of colorful jeans for spring.
clutch - Esprit
 
It would be so nice to find a cute, little clutch. Especially in the summer a clutch could be really useful when you don't have a lot of stuff with you but they don't fit in to your pockets or you simply just don't have pockets. I want to find a clutch that is bit more everyday kind of clutch, though. (I do love the clutch in the picture and the only thing that stopped me from buying it was the price...)
 

 
 
This might be the most important purchase I do this year. I want to find the perfect party dress for my self because after this semester I graduate from comprehensive school and it's pretty big case. So I really hope I'll find a dress that gives me some extra self-confidence and brings out all of my best features. Luckily I still have almost five months to find that dress;).

Welcome 2013!

 
Happy New Year for everyone! My year started well and I hope yours began well, too. I had a pretty relaxing New Years Eve: I stayed home and watched some movies. Nothing special but quite nice anyway:). At midnight I went out, though, to see the firework. The weather was warm (I wore a leather jacket!) considering were are in Finland.
  You couldn't see the firework that clearly because of the weather but it was okay. I wish 2013 will be an amazing year full of happiness, success and new experiences!:)

Look what I got!

 
I had a wonderful Christmas and I got many lovely Christmas presents!:) A big thank you to my family, relatives and friends <3. I can't show all of my presents but here are a few of them:
 
 
 
 
I'm so happy about these books!  I got Lauren Conrad's L.A. Candy Series from one of my best friends. I've thought many times of reading them but I never have... And when I saw the books for a good price (not to mention the delicious package) I asked my friend to buy them for me. And she did :). And I got Lauren Conrad's Beauty from my aunt and uncle. I got her book Style last Christmas and it's one of my favourite books. When I found out about Beauty I knew I had to get it! These books are a bit difficult to read because they are all in English but it's really good practise for me:).
 




I'm sorry it took me so long to update my blog... The reason is that I got quite a lot of money, too, and wanted to do some shopping first, so that I could show you guys something tangible, not just euros. Anyway, I bought this jumper from sale. I was half the price!!! The scarf wasn't reduced so it was pretty expensive (30€) but it was so lovely that I had to buy it. The jumper and the scarf are both from Selected.


 
 
These gorgeous earrings are from a friend, too. I love them!!! I'm going to wear them tomorrow on New Years Eve. I think they are a bit old-fashioned but only in a good way. And they are really comfortable to wear. I'm so happy about them :)!



This is a part of my godmother's present for me. I thinks it's for a foot bath but I'd rather use it in a normal bath... It would be amazing to bath surrounded by rose petals! But at least now I have a good reason to take foot baths because I don't really do that at all at the moment ;).

It's Christmas time!



 
 dress - Vero Moda jeans
belt - Mango
ankle boots - Marco Tozzi
ring - vintage

 
 


 
 
Yes it's finally holiday! We got our grades and I'm actually quite happy with them (that means I don't have to work that hard in spring time, I just need to keep my grades as they are now and it's kind of relieving to know). Me and my friends gave our Christmas presents to each other, too.
Yesterday we had my school's Christmas party. I wore the outfit on the pictures there. The outfit was festive enough but it didn't go over the top. I got really cold, though, because I had only those tights and my coat isn't very long... Anyway it's nearly Christmas and I'm so excited! I still have to buy a few gifts for my family and do the Christmas cleaning and then I'm ready for a Merry Christmas!:)

Sailing off

(The picture is taken by phone so the quality is what it is...sorry!)
 
Today we drove to Turku to my grandma's traditional Christmas lunch. This time we were in a restaurant called S/S Bore. It's a steamboat that has been turned into a hostel and a restaurant. The food was really good! It was traditional Finnish Christmas food such as ham, salmon, casseroles and so on...It was nice to see all of my relatives after a long time.:) Only the weather was really bad so I couldn't take pictures on board the ship. It was also my name day today so it was nice to celebrate it, too.:)
 


                      


 
blouse - Only
ring - vintage
hair extensions - Rapunzel of Sweden
 
 
 
Only one week to go and then it's Christmas and I'm so excited!!! Then I don't have to stress about school or exams for a while. I wish you all happy holidays!:)

Oh Germany!

 
Grüβe aus Deutschland! I had an amazing time in Germany last week!:) (Even though five days were way too short a time.....) Anyway, we left at 2.30 am on Monday morning so all of us were pretty tired. Despite my tiredness I was quite scared of the flight (because I haven't travelled by plane very often) but everything went really well. And the views were breathtaking as you can see from the picture! That sunrise we saw...:)
 

 
We arrived in Berlin between nine and ten and headed straight off to see some sights eg. the Christmas market. All the smells and gifts brought such a Christmasy feeling. Luckily it's Christmas soon! After our little sightseeing came everyone's favourite part: Shopping (obviously)! We visited KaDeWe but it's was waaay too expensive for my wallet. But in the other shops prices were much lower compared to Finland. I didn't want to spend all of my money on the first day so I didn't buy anything except for a toothbrush which I (of course) left home. We came to Chemnitz around six and then went straight to our host families.
 



 
 
I bought these gorgeous shoes from a local shopping centre. I just love them! They are Marco Tozzi's. I've been hunting for high heeled ankle boots for such a long time and I'm so happy I finally found them.:) In Dresden I also visited Hollister's shop for the first time in my life...What a place! The shop definitely stood out (I first thought it was a restaurant).
 

 
coat - Cristelle&Co.
bag - Mango
jeans - Gina Tricot
sneakers - Converse
 
It was nice to get home after I had been gone so long but I will definitely go back to Germany. It's such a nice country! And the German boys dressed up much better than Finnish boys.;) Now I only have to get my German in shape!
