Today I went to the movies with a close friend I haven't seen all summer (check out her nail blog here). We saw Despicable me 2. I think it was as funny as the first movie I went to see with the same friend. We were the oldest ones there (except for the parents) but that's fine. If you want to laugh I recommend to go see this movie!

The jacket I was wearing is from London. I absolutely love it and especially the details impressed me. I got the jacket for almost half the price. This spring I was looking for a camouflage jacket but I couldn't find a nice one. Well, now it doesn't matter anymore since I got this jacket. I've been wearing it almost every day. Pretty good a deal, I'd say;).

Last Friday we drove to an art exhibition near my home city. I liked the display even if it was a bit discontinuous. It was a warm and sunny day so I wanted to wear something light but tidy. My new vest was perfect to this occasion. It is also my first piece of clothing from London that I'm showing to you guys. I bought this vest at my first week from Forever 21. I really like it and I'm looking forward to use it many times more! 

More stories from London coming soon!

I came home from London two days ago. I had super amazing time there! I got to know so many people and now I'm really missing my new friends:(. The weather wasn't so good but last three days it was about 30 degrees.I did quite a lot of shopping and I will show the things I bought soon in my upcoming outfit posts. London itself was incredible and there were so many shops we don't have here in Finland. And Victoria's secret lingerie shop...no words to describe it but I totally fell in love<3. Especially the stairs were awesome! Now I'm having a hard time to adjust to my normal, non-London life...But I guess I will manage:D. And a little bit about the outfit: I wore it on my last day in London. We went to Warner Bros studios to visit the Making of Harry Potter (I might post pics from there later...). I was so excited that I just wanted to scream. If you visit London and you are at all interested in Harry Potter you must go there.

If you still want to ask me something for the question post e.g. about my trip (even though I will tell you more when I post my other outfits from London) leave your question to the comments field below:).

As the title says I'm heading off to London tomorrow morning. I'm so so excited! I go to a language course so it will be both work and fun for me I guess;). The outfit I'm wearing in the pics will be my travelling outfit. I know the top is quite fancy for travelling but hey, I want to make a good first impression on my course mates. I don't know yet what kind of possibilities I have to post from London so I apologize in advance for possible 3-week break in posting...But I will try my best anyway!

I'll do the question post after my trip so if you still want to ask something from me, just leave your question to the comments:).

See you soon lovelies!

Bag to die for

I bought this lovely bag today. I immediately liked it when I saw it but I wasn't sure weather to buy it or not. Eventually I returned to buy the bag. Even the shop assistant remembered me and asked was it the bag I was yearning for:D. The most amazing thing in this bag was the price: originally it cost about 120€ but I got it for 50€ and it's real leather! How awesome is that?! Can't wait to use the bag:).

Turn old to something new

I've had these jeans shorts for ages and this spring I took them out of my wardrobe thinking "hey these shorts are actually really cool, why haven't I worn them more often?" When I saw this DIY-project I wanted to create my own version of studded jeans shorts. Here is my tutorial for you about how to make your old shorts look like a totally new piece of clothing.

 

Here's what you need:

 

 

Rip off the outer corner of the back pocket. When you fold the lose part of the pocket it should form a triangle. Attache the corner with a stud to the other side of the pocket. If the fabric is too thick for the stud to go through you can simply sew the corner and add the stud as an ornament (as I did). After this add the studs to the triangle area at the outer corner of the pocket.

 

 

If you have leftover studs or you just prefer to locate them somewhere else than the back of the shorts feel free to use your creativity with the studs. Only your imagination is the limit!

 



 

 Finalize your work by cutting of the extra threads and sewing the places that aren't looking tidy or the places that might get caught to something.

 

 

Last polish the studs with a soft cloth if there are finger prints left.

 

 

And here's the result:

 



Don't hesitate to let me know your thoughts about this post!
