Ladylike

Dress- Reverse

Cardigan- Gina Tricot

Shoes-  Vivienne Westwood

I've been waiting for a chance to wear this formal- ish dress, and last weekend I stopped by at my stepbrother's confirmation party looking like this! There's a funny story behind this certain dress; I ordered Unif dress from Karmaloop and waited for a small eternity to get it because the delivery company lost it somewhere between customs and my apartment, even though they did try to deliver it once. When after 4 phone calls and several days of waiting I finally received the package, I found this Reverse dress. Sorry some Emily from Canada, this was supposed to be yours! Karmaloop was nice enough to offer me full refund and I got to keep this, since they had already ran out of my size of the dress I originally wanted. I consider myself lucky, I could have gotten a horrible rag but instead I ended with this beauty, practically for free!

Comfort zone

Beanie- Rotting Fresh

Top- Killstar

Lace top- Vero Moda

Cardigan- Gina Tricot

Shoes- Misu

Backbag- Lost Mannequin

After a long day at work, it's nice to have casual hangout with greatest friends in the world, in the most casual and comfortable clothes you own.  This is one of my current favorite ''comfort outfits'', for those days when I really don't feel like worrying too much. Killstar tops are great for that, perfect length, nice fabric and rad prints! Going to stock up on these babes! 

Even though I thought about keeping this strictly as an outfit post, I have to share this. How often you get to drink from a rifle full of vodka?? From Russia with looove.

Venice tips?

pictures from Google

I'm traveling to Venice in less than a month and I'm already so excited I'm having hard time going to work every morning. I loved Rome last year and during the wintery months I missed Italy like every second day, so one day I had some extra money on my bank account so I extempore booked flights to Venice.

Now I'm asking you, my dear readers and fellow travel enthusiasts, possible locals or whoever might know.

  What to do and where to go? Where to shop all the coolest stuff in Venice? 

I've done some research, but I want to hear your tips !

Places nearby Venice are fine too, we're staying for over week so we have plenty of time. Also, tips for finding nice coffee shops near Rialto bridge (I'm staying in Hotel Graspo de Ua, which I think is near Rialto) are appreciated, I might be in for the kill if I don't get my daily dose of caffeine in the mornings.

Oh yeah, and if you know the best place for gelato in town, do share your wisdom. I just love that stuff.

Midsummer

Hello and long time no see! I've been on the go for quite a while now, busy with all kinds of summery activities with friends, gotta take advantage of this awesome weather while I can so excuse my absence! 

I had awesome, long weekend with bunch of friends at the cottage in Sappee. Best midsummer celebration, I must say! 4 days, awesome people and so much epic stuff I could keep talking for days. 

Here's our cottage BEFORE we totally fucked it up. Seriously, there was no chance we could have cleaned it all up before we had to return the keys.

Glamorous cottage cuisine. 

We managed to do a quick visit to Tampere on Friday and I had to get a tourist pic. I had my eyes closed in every single one of them. Note how I managed to dye the black pars of my hair blueish black.

WANT.

Nearest beach was 3 km away from the cottage but swimming was obligatory because midsummer.

Typical midsummer scenery in Finland. Note the broken chair our cottage neighbors manage to break at some point.

Third day and I was too exhausted to try and look good.

Our neighbors bought a whole box of Dumle lollipops , just because ''they felt like licking the chocolate off them''.

We left the uncleaned ( still waiting for the cleaning bill with curiosity ) cottage on Sunday morning and I headed to glorious kingdom of Koivukylä to wrap the whole midsummer celebration up.

All in all, great weekend and great company. I'm pretty sure this trip will be one of those stories I keep telling over and over again and bore all nurses at the nursing home when I'm 90 and suffer from alzheimer.
