Outfit post – Alexander Wang

November 12, 2014

Good Wednesday afternoon!! How are you doing my dear readers? I hope that this week has started well for you and that the cold and darkness are not getting to you as much as they are to me. I’m still in a “transition” phase in my head and body from warm and sunny days to cold, chilly and mostly cloudy days. I’ve been lacking some inspiration and adrenaline for the past week or so, but I’m getting to the core of this and will be embracing the fact that Winter is around the corner very gladly. I have decided on one of the trips which I’ve been talking about in my last post and I’ll be going to London in the beginning of December. I’m very excited about this trip and have already started to research which cool places I want to visit this time, which restaurants I need to check out and also, I’m excited to see all of those Christmas lights and decorations of London’ streets and as well, it will be a perfect trip to get something special for myself as a Christmas present to myself πŸ˜€ (and of course to my family)!

Outfit post – Father’s Day

November 10, 2014

Good morning and happy Monday everybody! How was your weekend? I had such a lovely day yesterday. We have celebrated Father’s Day here in Finland and even though I have no father in who’s name I can celebrate I do have a little princess and her father is an admirable man, so in his name we went for a coffe and some nice cakes at his parents’ place, then up next we went to our local Sea Life, as we all love the under water world and after that we had such a delicious and fun lunch at Viking themed restaurant. It was totally not an ordinary “lazy” Sunday and it was proof to me that Sundays can still be a lot of fun.

Gourmet moment: Fruit smoothie

November 5, 2014

Good Wednesday everybody! I’m back with gourmet moment in which I’d like to share a quick and easy recipe for one of my favourite smoothies. I like to make fruit smoothies for breakfast or as a nice daytime “snack”. I always try to make the healthiest version of smoothies and load only good ingredients in them. This fruit smoothie is very much loved in my household and is equally kid and adult friendly. πŸ™‚

I hope that you’ll give it a try and if you do, let me know how did you like it.

Outfit post – Sheriff

November 4, 2014

Good morning everyone!! It’s a rainy one for me, but I have some little errands to run, so the day isn’t that gloomy after all. Lately, I’ve been always trying to find at least one positive thing to get me through a day. As some of you know, I haven’t been having the easiest times lately and some of my big plans had to get postponed, so it’s really easy to fall into depressive mode and the lack of daylight, not to even mention sun, makes it all that much harder to put a smile on day in, day out.

November “to-do” list

November 3, 2014

Good morning ladies and good November to everybody! How was your Halloween weekend? I hope that you’ve had lots of fun, were part of some great party or just had a cozy evening in with a good movie and a couple of treats. πŸ™‚

I had lots of fun throwing a Halloween party for my daughter and her little friends. Seeing her being so excited about getting dressed up and having her friends being all dressed up in different “scary” characters, melted my heart. It was the first time ever that I have or we as a family have celebrated Halloween and I think that we’ll def. celebrate it next year too.

Outfit post – Chanel boots

October 29, 2014

Hello Wednesday and hello everybody! This day started off very nice since the first thing I saw after opening my bedroom’s blinders were sun rays! When the weather gets cold, esp. when the Winter starts to approach, sun is such a rare thing in Helsinki.

I’ve done some photo editing right away after having my breakfast and then I went to meet a friend for coffee and did some grocery shopping. Pretty easy going day so far and I like it… πŸ™‚

Gourmet moment: Pumpkin soup

October 28, 2014

Good evening dear readers! First of all – THANK YOU!!! so much for all of your amazing comments on my last post. I’m overwhelmed with such a positive response that I can’t wait to show you my new photos from the photo shoot which I had this morning. I’ve been working on editing them, so that’s why today’s post is coming bit late, but better late than never! πŸ™‚ Can you believe that there’re only 3 days left of this massive Blogtober month!? It’s been so much fun from my side, I hope that you’ve enjoyed it as well!

One of favourite things every Fall, except layers, cozy evenings with scented candles and long walks in parks with tons of leaves on the ground, are -> PUMPKINS! I’m a junkie for pumpkin soups and I even turned my husband into a huge pumpkin lover ( he used to hate it ). Here’s a recipe for a very simple, but super comforting and perfect pumpkin soup! Enjoy!

Photo shoot: Sofia

October 27, 2014

Good Monday everybody! I woke up to a dark and rainy Monday today and even though it was hard to want to get up from the bed and start my day, I had to do a ton of stuff very quickly as I have a toddler that goes early to kindergarten and I was meeting a friend/ business associate, so the morning was quite hectic.
