Travels

I've been back "home" for a couple of weeks now and my fingers are already itching to book a flight somewhere nice and warm, and hopefully far away.

Naturally it doesn't help that yesterday I finally uploaded all my travel pics from last year to my computer, here are some of my favourites: (sorry for the torture)


Alps this summer (Border of Austria and Italy)


Amsterdam, last fall


Florence, this summer


 Verona, this Summer



Next trip on my list is back home to Finland in a month, so I'm guessing this is what's waiting for me there..




And well to be honest as I'm already living "abroad" I really shouldn't be complaining about traveling, especially when I sometimes get to witness views like this from my very window:



Oh well, let's see where this year takes me, happy travels!

Black and White


Hello again Internet friends!

I'm already starting to become a bit of a slacker with blogging, but I've been incredibly busy (read: lazy) lately; university started again last week and I'm already terrified of the amount of work I'm expected to do, I'd rather just stay in bed and watch TV-shows online all day everyday ;((

But before my blog gets all boring with me complaining about my everyday life I thought I'd post another outfit I wore during the holidays whilst still in Finland. Hopefully I'll be able to get some real outfit of the days up here soon, but for now I'll have to settle on posting old ones.




 Shirt from Zara, Shorts from Gina Tricot

Ps. This is what I'm complaining about :

Accidents Happen

I had kind of promised myself that I wouldn't do ANY shopping in January, but as on one dark and gloomy finnish winter night I found myself on ASOS.com accidents were bound to happen... 

To justify my actions I must tell you that I only scrolled through the sale section of ASOS, in other words I basically SAVED money.. right?

Anyways, here are my newbies:


 Sweater, Mango
You can get it here
 

Jacket, New Look
You can get it here


  
Needless to say I am in love!

Aubergine Sparkle


Hello, New Year's gone and went, and mine wasn't that great really, but I thought I'd show you guys some of the outfit options I had for the last day of 2013.



I didn't actually end up wearing this for the night, but I still liked the combination of black sparkles and aubergine, so I thought I'd share. 

I'm wearing a stradivarius skirt (couple seasons back) a zara shirt and bikbok necklace


Oh and just in case you're wondering, yes it was freezing.

That's all for today, ciao!

Hello World!

Thank you for stumbling across my blog! I promise that you just made the best decision of your life!...or the worst..... I probably shouldn't be making such promises... 

Anyway this blog is the result of years and years of "what ifs” I've had when pondering on whether or not to start a blog. I've been reading tons of fashion blogs regularly for nearly 5 years now, which triggered my interest toward blogging in the first place. Still thus far those “what ifs” led to me creating blogs that only saw daylight for their honeymoon phase and then suddenly ceased to exist. That is UNTIL NOW. This time, due to the fact that as my new year’s resolution I challenged myself to blog regularly for at least a year, I will give blogging my A-game. Whether or not I succeed will be another story, but hopefully you'll be part of it as well!

Now for the content of this blog, I like to think of myself as an impulsive person so I cannot really predict what I'll be writing about but as a shameless shopaholic and somewhat regular lookbooker, I would guess that most of my post's will be fashion and trend related. I also love travelling and adventures so I'd guess this blog won’t fall short on those areas either. Most definitely this blog will have an overflow of my weird sense of humour so consider yourselves warned. But to give you a better idea of the person sitting behind the computer here are some "fun" facts about me:

I'm a 20-year-old girl from Helsinki, Finland who's currently studying in Edinburgh, Scotland. As stated before I’m a huge shopaholic and trend-lover who loves to play dress up any chance she gets. I'm also a very skilled procrastinator and my other "hobbies" include addictive watching of far too many TV-shows and films, reading (usually the books those shows and films are based on, blogs, or magazines), lookbooking, travelling, laughing (in inappropriate situations), napping, eating and dancing. I'm also trying my best with keeping up with running and going to the gym but my talents in the field of procrastination make this very difficult. Overall I would describe myself as goofy and fun, but I know my friends would probably call me weird and lazy hahaha.

Finally this blog was created so that I could have my “sweet escape” from reality and boredom, and hopefully I'll be able to provide it for you too!


I'm truly grateful to whatever led you to find my blog in the vastness of the internet and I hope I didn’t scare you off too much so that at least one of you might consider visiting again.

Adios for now and see you soon, hopefully!

Oh and for those of you who are interested in my personal style you can find more about it on my lookbook profile here, any hypes are truly appreciated!
