Outfits

Good morning world!! How was your weekend my dear readers? My weekend was all about some soul searching, indulging in long walks outside ( we had a very sunny weekend ) and some lovely Thai food, Masaman curry with veggies being my current obsession 🙂

The outfit which I’m showing you in this post was my uniform over the weekend. I felt feminine, comfortable and yet very rock n’roll. This is also the first time I’m showing you my Pandora box by Givenchy which I got at Luxbag, a must visit store if you’re even in Helsinki and want to do some quality shopping. I’m absolutely in love with the bag, it’s so spacious and so well designed that I know without a doubt will last me for years. That’s def. one of the best things when investing in more pricy bags, if you take good care of them, they’ll last you a long time 🙂

Good Wednesday everybody!! I got up early, had my breakfast and am soon going to the gym. I’ve been at the dentist yesterday and after that I’ve been pretty much in miserable state for the rest of the day + the whole day has been a rainy one, so… I’m in a need of a good workout and getting my spirit back 🙂

I’m looking forward to meeting with my sister today. Visit to our favourite coffee place and some window shopping always helps to feel better too!

Good morning everybody!! How was your weekend? Mine was very short, but very sweet. I did have pretty “weird” week as I’ve been in some pain because of my teeth being fixed and waiting for the proper fillings to be put in in two days. Eating was such a challenge, as I can only chew on the left side of my mouth and only very soft foods, nothing too crunchy. We did get some lovely thai food take away and oh it was so delicious. I have also went out with my sister to check out a show of one rock band and it was great to have our girly time/ night out. Sunday was all about just taking it easy, going out for a long walk, cooking some comfort food and checking a movie at cinema.

It’s Thursday morning and I woke up quite tired. I was at the dentist yesterday and we had to take out two fillings, take tooth impressions and put in another two temporary fillings until next week when I need to go in again and get the permanent fillings. Getting anaesthetics and listening to drill for 2 hours is never fun and always serves as a good reminder that health is one of the most important things in every person’s life. When people you love hurt/ are sick or if you’re hurting and not feeling well, pretty much nothing else matters except getting better. These are also the moments when you see how much support of your loved ones is priceless.

We’ve been having a real Fall weather over here in Helsinki. I don’t mind the chillier weather as long as we’re not having insane non-stop rains as it was the case end of August. September brought some sun back and possibility to go for long walks and breathe in fresh, crisp air 🙂

Good morning my dear readers! There’s that one song by Green Day that goes like: “Wake me up when September ends”. That’s it, the Fall is here and September is here, but I don’t want to fast forward through this month. First time in maybe my whole life that I’m not waiting for time to pass by as fast as possible or looking for the next best day/ date. I’m truly embracing this month and will do my best to use every single day to do something significant. It doesn’t have to be anything special, just that I want to look back on September in October and be able to say: “Wow, I’ve done so much past month, I have lived last month, I have grown as person last month…”

Bang – Bang into Wednesday! The sun is shining and I’m feeling much better than two days ago! Thank you for all of the get well wishes, they really worked wonders for me 🙂 Being sick is always so annoying and I’m just this kind of person that doesn’t know how to be sick and stay still until you feel better. Noooo, this girl is like: ” I need to work, I need to clean, I need to cook, I need to go out, I need to do this, I need to go there, etc.” I’ve been missing my gym this week, but I’ll start again on Monday. It’s crazy how your body gets used to good thing very fast and then craves it so bad when it doesn’t get it, even if it’s been only couple of days without it.

Hello my dear readers and hello Monday! I got up bright and early today, not because I wanted to, but because I got sick and I couldn’t sleep much last night :/ So, yea… Just like the title says, it’s now officially “bye-bye” to Summer and the sweater weather made a comeback to my city. I’ve been looking for some nice sweaters in stores over the weekend, but couldn’t find anything that I loved, so I’ll hopefully find something good over the internet shops.

Weekend was spent not doing much, just walking around getting some fresh air, visiting Farmer’s Market and Finnish traditional and organic food fair, eating at Mexican diner and visiting in-laws. How about you? How was your weekend?

Good morning dear people!! Can you believe that it’s already 20th of August? Two more weeks and the sweater weather will be ON big time. I have a feeling that Summer lasted for like 3 weeks, but nope, it’s been lasting much longer than that and as much as I’m sad to start putting my summer clothes away, I’m also excited to bring some warmer clothes out and also shop for some new pieces. Couple of days ago I was just taking a walk downtown and as I’ve passed by Max Mara display window, I saw a perfect Winter coat, it just had my name written all over it. I had to go in and try it on and luckily, it fitted me perfectly, so now my quest on getting a Winter coat is solved! Next on my list are pair of great Winter boots and since I have such a large foot size, I think that this will last for a while until I find the perfect pair in my size.

How about you? Did you make a Fall/ Winter wish list? What’s on it?

Good morning my dear readers! As the title of my post says, I woke up to a rainy and chilly morning. I just had my breakfast and am packing my gym bag and will head there after I write this blog post. The best way to kick start the beginning of new week and avoid feeling down about the rain is to get a little bit sweaty at the gym 🙂

I’m stuck with tons of papers regarding my student visa for my course on NYFA and I’m aaaaalmost there with having everything sorted out. Luckily I still have 2 months left until I have to leave to NYC so I’ll be in time, but since I’m a perfectionist and at times control freak, I’d like the whole process to have been much shorter and smoother. I’m currently looking at Airbnb apartments and trying to find a suitable one in which I can live for 2 months while I stay in New York. Keeping my fingers crossed that I’ll find a nice little spot near the academy.

Hello everybody! Can you believe that it’s already Friday! I just came back from the gym and I feel so energised to take care of some errands that I need to run and in general, to use this day to the maximum. Lately, I’ve been really paying attention to how I spend my days. I’m trying my best to have productive days as much as possible, not just in terms of working but also in terms of wether it’s learning something new, having a coffee in a new cafe, cooking a new meal, really… Whatever! I’m just thinking that so often I’d get depressed or fall into some kind of “comfortable” routine and I’ve realised that all of my days were pretty much the same and weren’t going to bring me closer to my dreams in that “tempo”.
