From Vivienne Westwood to Green up!

Few months ago my mother's cousin told me, that her colleague had worked with Vivienne Westwood recently. They designed a T-shirt for Green Up!. And of course, after hearing this, I wanted that shirt. Badly. Angel as she is, she promised to get one for me.
And now, after months of waiting and waiting:





orb - logo! 

It's my first Westwood - cloth. I have loved her jewels, bags and clothes so long that it feels amazing to finally have one! (You don't buy a shirt with 300 € just like that!) Btw: any ideas where we should go in London? Tell me if you have been/ live there!

week review - irritating truth

Sometimes you just need to scream. At least inside of your mind. So, what's so hard in my life? One simple thing like money
I have maybe mentioned that we are going to London after two weeks. And of course I have to save all my monthly allowances and salary. 
Now I really realize hardness of the next 3 years, with my "poor student life" that everybody have told me. Just buying a magazine makes me wince. 
 But I think it does good for me. It's time to learn, that money isn't easy to get neither deserve. After 17 days I'm living on my own and be charge of paying food, rent, electricity, water, clothes plus everything I need for living, like chocolate, makeup, magazines, smoothies, jewels, ice cream and so on...
Yeah, it's going to be interesting...

Of course I'm stressing other things too, like the whole London-thing, moving, decoration ( still no bed, couch or any chairs!), new school and my friend's birthday, which is middle of everything. (No gift yet, btw..)

So here, annoying whining - post. 

Bye!

shopper's excuse - sales

Have you ever heard this: "I can't buy this yet! I have to wait till sales..." I have. I have said it myself, too. Sales are maybe the best reason (read: excuse) to spend your money without getting yelled. Yes, you get few things with 50% off. Yes, you can save your money. And yes, it feels so much better to buy something with a red tag. 
But in the end you still use more money than you would without sales. 
Need a proof?
Check all your receipts. 

Anyway, I am the victim of sales, too. And here are my sacrifices:



ONLY rose denim flower shirt 50% off.


H&M shorts 30% off.


KappaH shorts 0% off 


Hilfiger Denim black iris 10% (?) off.
My mom bought this one, so I'm not sure how much it cost. 








Clitter sale: everything 75% off


And so: beware of sales! 
What about you? What have you bought? Any impulse purchases?

Summer photoshoot

Why the weather is like survivors in Finland? First there is seven-days- session with rain, wind and cold. Then 1 day with sun, warmness and birds singing (and this happens to be the contest day). Well, me and my sister used the sunny day usefully (realist, shut up). Here, a very creative photoshooting:





shoes: "borrowed" from mom... these are one of those pair of shoes she newer use, 
but still she wants to keep them...


And yes, the water was cold. Super. Cold.
 ( hair-flowers by H&M)

Two workers from my summer job starts their vacation, so it's going to be hard time for me... (help) But hopefully I still get the chance to enjoy summer days. 
And btw, we are going to London on next month (!!!) One of my dreams will become true! There are million places I wanna go, but only five days to spend there...

Bye!

Sailor jackets

I finally introduced myself to online stores. It started when I saw a blazer that I loved - but couldn't have. No money, no right size. But I just couldn't let go. I had to get it. So I broke my old fashioned and weir rule: do not shop online. I don't no why I was so prejudiced. Maybe I was afraid of cheating. Anyway, I found that same blazer from Bestseller, right size and 30% off ! ( I think this is called miracle). So, here it is, after seven days of waiting and waiting:


Brand is Outfitters nation, btw...




Those kind of jackets are in magazines every spring or summer. I don't know why sailor-look is so popular, but I'm not going to protest...

What I love : Smoothies

It started few years ago. I was on holiday in Geneva, and there I tasted it first time. Geneva is the best place if you want to start a healthy life (seriously, organic food and that kind of things everywhere. But no banana yoghurt anywhere, btw). But of course, it's the best place to eat very very unhealthy food (chocolate shops on every corner, self-made ice cream and every kind of fast food places). But I learned one thing: smoothies are the best. The. Best. I started with innocent smoothie, which is my favorite even now.
Well, Arnold's smoothies are also good. And Hesburger's too. And... Yeah, they are good. And they help with sugar-addict :-)

Love is Friis Company bag

It doesn't matter, which magazine, blog or runway-show. There is always this bag: black leather bag. Brand and look might change, but it is still there. I didn't have one. They are expensive and I really couldn't find the one I liked. And today my grandmother turned up to our garden, in the middle of roof painting ( I'm like dalmatian, but conversely - black old T-shirt and full of white dots). And she gives me the most perfect bag I have ever seen. There it is, black leather bag I have searched forever. 













Big thanks to my granny and aunt, who picked and bought it. I really really love you!
