after a long week...

Summer night in Finland - 10 p.m. and the sun hasn't set

It's been a while since my last post! But while I haven't posted a single thing, I have:

- Stuffed all my clothes and bags and shoes into two suitcases
- Moved all my stuff from Holland to Finland
- Unpacked all my clothes and bags and shoes (and made a huge mess)
- Enjoyed the summer night with my best friends and emptied few wine bottles while talking (see the picture above)
- Swam in a lake (the water was cold!)
- Sunbathed in the garden listening to indie rock
- Driven my car after a year
- Made amazing finds in the warehouse where all my old stuff is stored at, like a plastic bag full of bangles, necklaces and earrings
- Eaten dinner together with my extended family
- Found a new apartment from a lovely old building
- Eaten strawberries with milk and sugar

More posts coming soon...! Enjoy the summer everyone! xx

sparkling ladies

Jennifer Aniston

Heidi Klum

It seems that this sparkly silver material (that some call tinfoil) is now in the favour of celebrities... I like it, especially the dress Jen wore few days back, but what do you think?

And I'd like to thank the lovely ladies of Fashion Architect and Clothes Horse, because they both had giveaways and I won! Two times! I think I have to fill in a lottery ticket this week...

diva

Dear bloggers, gues where I'm going today? Well, my friends are taking me to a hip hop event! I'm not a hip hop girl so I'm really curious how it's gonna be...Which reminds me that Beyonce has had nice outfits lately, here's three that I like:

I like the dress, jacket and sunnies, the whole thing!

Currently I'm in love with jumpsuits...

The jacket is so cool!

Ok now I have to get going! I promise that in a week I'll be posting more regularly, right now I have to get the final assignments for school done and also pack all my stuff and get it back home (Finland) somehow... But soon I'lle be a better blogger! Enjoy your weekend! xx

boyfriend not required

Although I don't have a boyfriend, I love the 'boyfriend look'. In this month's Glamour there was an editorial of the subject, and I wanted to share it with you guys, if you haven't already seen it. I think the bf look is so great; in day to day life I prefer comfy and not too tight and revealing clothes, and it is perfect for those laid back days of school, sitting in a cafe or just doing nothing (one of my favourite hobbies)...


Oversized, slouchy tees and knits



The jacket with an attitude, and layering, low key indeed... so cool.... and so comfy!



I like the 'classic men's shirt', but I like the rolled up pants with high heels too!

It seems that the essence of the bf style right now is the blazer! Here the pink colour makes it cute



I love the shorts and the jacket combo, I bought these kind of shorts last weekend, definitely have to try this look!


It's been a tough week this one, I hope the next one is better. Soon (in 2 weeks) I'm moving back to Finland, I so look forward to it! It's so good to go back home after a year in the Netherlands. It's been great but all things come to an end and now it is the time to move forward and towards new adventures and challences...

Oh and does anyone know how to get the pictures to appear bigger? And how to attach video, from Youtube for example? I would appreciate any kind of advice! I'm so bad with computers and Blogger and that kind of stuff haha... Have a great week everyone xx

blue and green









Streetstyle from the streets of Amsterdam and Copenhagen. I chose these pics especially because of the colours, lovely greens and blues. Now I'm gonna go out with friends, see you later!
