New week, new beginning! I just love Mondays as crazy as that might sound to you. 🙂 I do still have this one photo diary from London left to share with you and then the new outfit post is finally coming too! We’ve been shooting the whole London trip, so if there’s enough of good material, I’ll share that video with you. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it will be a good quality material, because I’ve been wanting to put up a video for a quite some time now. I think that occasional videos would be a nice addition to my blog. Let me know what you think about this!?
Hello my dear readers! I hope that you’re having a good and ( hungover free ) Sunday morning! I’m having a bitter-sweet moment since my mini getaway to London has come to an end and I would SO love to stay here much longer, but I’m also happy to leave because I know that there’s still so much to see and do next time I come back to London. That’s something I love about short trips, you just don’t have time to do everything and see everything you’d want to ( esp. if you’re travelling with children ) but it’s always exciting to come back again so that you can do/ see what you haven’t managed to previously!
So, that went well then… I was planning to put up an outfit post yesterday morning before taking off to the airport, but that was a total fail! You know that moment, I mean, you MUST have had this at least once happen to you, when you need your electronics to work the most and they totally “betray” you! My dear laptop decided to act up and freeze and then I had to restart it on force quit and when I’ve put it on again, it totally swiped away my outfit photos and I’m not enough of Mac wizard to have been able to find them again. Total bummer… I really loved the photos and the outfit that I was wearing. I will have to retake the photos once I’m back to Helsinki.
Yep my dear readers, just like the title says, these outfit photos were snapped yesterday morning and it was freezing cold! I have no idea how I’ve endured to pose and not look as if I’m 100% in pain ( I hope I don’t look like that on your screens 😀 ).
However, if we disregard the whole “cold” story, then I can say that I’ve had pretty lovely weekend! We did lots of Christmas gifts shopping, we’ve been hanging out with our friends, we have baked some nice gingerbread cupcakes and watched couple of episodes of “Californication” (I’m soooo behind on the episodes/seasons).
If you’ve been reading my blog for the past month, you do know that I’m a self proclaimed holiday junkie! I love Christmas and for me it starts already in mid November. I’m seriously so excited about this time of the year that I could go on and on about it for a loooong time 😀 Now, I have already put up a post with my Christmas wish list and in this post I’m giving you suggestions on what to buy for your significant other, for your mom, dad, bff, etc. I hope that these lists will be helpful and will give you a good idea on what to get for Christmas presents. I’d like to state that I’m in no way suggesting you to buy exact same products/ brands that I’m listing down here. 🙂 That being said, happy and successful shopping dear readers!!
Good Wednesday everybody! The snow has melted away already and the temperatures are up, so I got up this morning and was in a great mood to take some outfit photos. I didn’t mind the snow at all, but outfits do look much better when there’s not a bunch of snow everywhere. Hopefully we’ll get some more snow soon, at least around Christmas time, because as cliche as it sounds, I’d love to have a White Christmas 🙂
Good Monday morning everybody! It’s quite “funny” feeling to look outside the window and see that it’s pitch black outside. My daughter is always confused when I’m waking her up for the kindergarten. She doesn’t understand why does she needs to wake up when it’s still so dark outside. 🙂 All I can tell her is: “This is Finland my child, land of Santa Claus, so even though it is what it is outside, we’re such a cool place because Santa lives here!” I don’t have to mention how happily she gets up and starts her day!
Hello my dear readers! Just a quick “hello” from me today. I have been a little bit redecorating my apartment yesterday and today. Can’t wait for another two months to pass so that I can start decorating a new place, so I’ve been shopping for some more Christmas/ holidays home decor and now I’m putting them in the “right” place and I’m having the best feeling ever. I don’t know what it is, but Winter and Christmas’ magic definitely do make me feel like I live in a wonderland or something…
Good morning everyone! How is your week going? I’ve been so sleep deprived and overworked that I def. need a moment of relaxation. I’m off to my hairdresser in an hour and hopefully that will be a nice enough treat for myself to reboot me and help me to get through this day. Sometimes, it’s really so hard to balance work, family, hobbies and still have a quiet moment for yourself + good quality sleep… Some days I’m better at it, some days, not so much, but I guess that we are all struggling with the same situation at some point in our lives.
Good Monday morning everyone!! I can not start this post without asking you the usual question: “How was your weekend?” 🙂 I had a lovely, chilled weekend with my family. On Saturday we have visited our dear friends and also got a super yummy take away from the best Mexican diner in town, Cholo. They have killer burritos and I never got disappointed in their authentic taste.
