Owl Nails

Long time, no nail art - even on my Instagram - but here we go again. These nails I did already at the end of September so that should tell you how incative I've been. I always have my nails painted but just haven't felt like sharing them. Until now, when the Fleeky Friday is upon us. If you don't know what Fleeky Friday is, don't worry, you've only missed yesterday's post. I recently decided to develop my blog a little more after the month long break giving me perspective on what I want to do, and I decided we would have dedicated weekdays for different topics. Fridays will now on be Fleeky Fridays, and whenever I post on Friday, it will be about nails, hair, beauty or fashion - or anything that can be on fleek. But I assume it will mostly be nails, knowing myself.

Autumn/Fall Capsule Wardrobe

New season, new capsule wardrobe. On autumn time I gravitate towards more muted tones and darker shades, as well as comfy, layerable items so that my style would be easy to mix and match when the weather gets random (sometimes warm, sometimes cold, sometimes wet etc.).

Floral With Layers

Hey lovelies! How are you all today? ♥ I had an awesome weekend with boys - regardless of me losing in almost all games we played, except Trivial Pursuit since I'm a book nerd. Today, I'm heading to hairdresser to get a little something done with my hair, and I'm kinda trying something new this time. I've been thinking about a little change for a little while now and I'm pretty sure it's what I want. After all, it's just hair, and it can be done again soon.

Anyway, here's a post with outfit pics including my current - soon to be old - hairstyle.

Grunge Inspired

Hey lovelies! How are you today? ♥ I've been lacking posts for couple of weeks now because of other projects, and I'm sorry I've made you all wait. The wait will be hopefully rewarded starting this week, because the Halloween posts start running on Saturday, and will go on until Halloween. If you're not a Halloween person, don't worry, there will be some normal content too. 

Today, I'm sharing an autumn look I absolutely loved a while back:

Leather Pants

Hello babies! How are you all today? I've been quite busy this week with all sorts of stuff, but I'm sure you are happy to know that some of it has to do with next month's videos. I would love to have a Christmas calendar up here, but we'll see. I have an idea of a schedule, but I'm not sure if I'm able to actually create everything in time. So not promising you a calendar yet, but if you'd like that, I try to have one up for you. Anyway, today I have an outfit with a pair of leather pants for you, and I hope you will like it!

Comfy Layers

Hey sweeties! Hope you're having an amazing day today. I wrote this one for you last night, since I knew I wouldn't be on my laptop tonight. But instead, I'm watching live sports with guys. So I'm leaving you with this outfit post and I'm hoping you all will like it.

Simple Autumn Look

Hello lovelies! I hope you have had a fun weekend. I've been chilling at home and sorting out my closet a bit (still quite a way to go since I have way too much stuff). I feel like I need to get so much thrown out before putting our Christmas decor out so that I can feel super good about the holidays. And speaking of holidays, I have some kind of related recipes coming up soon. And as usual, they will be gluten free. But today, I'm sharing a little outfit with you all:

Vest With A Dress

Hey lovelies, and happy Tuesday to you all! I hope you're having a fun day. I had such a nice day at work, followed by a chill evening, and I received a package from one of my cooperations this autumn (that I showed already on Instagram and Snapchat). A post about the cooperation will follow later this week, so stay tuned for that. Today, however, I want to show this Autumn look with fur vest and a dress.

Faux fur vest: Only Jacket: secondhand Knit dress: secondhand Tights: gift from my mom Boots: Andiamo Bag: gift from mom Necklace: gift from friend Rings: JC, Gina Tricot Aviators: H&M

Kind of lot of pictures of this look, but let's not mind about that, okay? This look was fun to wear and I love the knit dress a lot. Some might say the tights are too much, but I felt the dressed the look down nicely on that sunny but chilly day. Also, the print in them fits the bag quite nicely so that's always fun. That vest is something I would love to wear more, but I'm terrible at styling it. But with a little practice, I'm sure I can figure some outfits for you to see. 

But what do you all think about this look? Let me know in the comments!

Now, I'm off to shower and evening stuff, but I will talk to you tomorrow here on the blog. In the meantime, follow me on social media for more updates - and to see when I post something new on the blog. This week, I've planned some fun things for the social media accounts, so stay tuned there to see it all. Love you all so much!

Have a lovely day ♥

#31DC2015 Black and White & Metallic

Hey babes! How are you all? I've had a chill day today at home, and been feeling a bit under the weather today. Luckily a marathon of O.C. and a huge cup of tea got me through it until hubby got home. He always makes me feel better. Also, I did new nail art, so it's definitely appropriate to share a couple of new designs from the #31DC2015 with you. So here are the black & white and metallic designs!

DSC00526 (Large)

First up is the black and white design. I was scrolling through images of black and white nails and was inspired to do this graphic, geometric design on them. I was really feeling the stripes that day, and I still love looking at this design.

DSC00550 (Large)DSC00541 (Large)

I think the studs were such fun finishing touches to the design. That's actually the thing I loved most about this!

DSC00546 (Large)

For this design I used White On White and Liquid Leather, both by China Glaze. All the studs are from Born Pretty Store and I used striping tape to create the geometric shapes.

DSC00536 (Large)DSC00811 (Large)

Next up is my metallic design for the challenge. I had this duochrome metallic shade I really wanted to try out, so I painted my nails with it and stamped leaves all over it to create a fun Autumn design.

DSC00791 (Large)DSC00796 (Large)

I like how this turned out even though I don't usually love shades like this on my nails. Somehow I ended up buying this one anyway and I love it quite a bit.

DSC00784 (Large)

The polishes I used for this were China Glaze Cabin Fever, Seas The Day, Roguish Red and Stoked To Be Soaked. The leaves were done with Konad stamping set, using the plate m20.

What do you all think about these designs? Let me know in the comments below!


That's all I have for you today, I hope you enjoyed these nail designs. Today I will be posting something else, but in the meantime remember to follow me on social media to stay updated about the blog and other things as well. I will go now to watch TV with the hubby and then get some rest, but I will be more chatty here tomorrow because I'm sure I'll feel all better after a good night's sleep. See you tomorrow!

Have a fabulous week ♥

Lime Green Knit

Hey babes, I hope you're having a great weekend so far. I am, because we're spending time with my parents today - and later we will be having treats and watching F1. So nice. In today's post, I'm sharing an outfit for a couple of weeks ago, when I was wearing this lime green knit. I like wearing "season inappropriate" colors, so this knit was just perfect. Take a look and see what you think about the outfit:

Knit: secondhand Scarf: secondhand Jeggings: secondhand/DIY Bag: gift from mom Booties: Boohoo

I guess this post isn't helpful on where to shop this look.. . But I'm hoping you still like it. I paired the knit with ripped jeggings and skull scarf to give it some edge, and then added booties to give the look more feminine touch. This outfit was certainly fun to wear, and I would definitely wear it again.

What do you think about this look? Let me know in the comments below!

That's all I have for you today, but tomorrow, I will have another post for you. I will publish it during the Mexico GP (Formula One, that is), since that's the time I get to sit down at home. Until then, follow me on social media for more updates. I will see you all tomorrow!

Have a lovely day ♥

70's Vibes

Hello lovelies!

How are you all today? ♥

I've been drinking a pot of ginger tea today after work, because somehow I've felt quite cold and fluish lately. Don't know why, it's probably just the chilly weather on the dark times of the day - even if it's seasonably quite warm. I just always get instantly cold when the cold season starts. Not sick necessarily, but chilly. 

So what better way to try to get warmer than looking at pictures of warmer weather? That's what I thought. With that said, I have a new outfit for you:

DSC00397 (Large)DSC00423 (Large)DSC00422 (Large)DSC00435 (Large)DSC00429 (Large)DSC00392 (Large)

Knit: H&M White Top: Gina Tricot Bandana: Seppälä Leggings: Boohoo Boots: Boohoo Bag: H&M(?) Aviators: H&M Necklace: Boohoo Rings: Gina Tricot

So there, an outfit with a little 70's vibe to it - I think. I love the fringed boots, the colors and the print of the leggings quite a bit. Also, I think the aviators bring a nice touch to the look. And the curls, too. I don't usually do this kind of looks, but that day I really liked it. And I hope you do too.

So, what do you guys think about this look? Let me know in the comments below!

Now, I'm gonna go knit, get a night snack and watch some TV with my husband. Not a bad way to end a night, right? Coming up this week here on the blog are couple of Halloween looks, a recipe post and then some, so stay tuned! Also, remember to follow me on social media for more frequent updates and sneak peeks for coming posts and such. I have few super exciting collaborations coming up as well as more chit chat posts about topics that make me think, and I can't to share those all with you. See you again tomorrow!

Have a lovely day ♥

Autumn Layers

Hey lovelies!

How are you all today? ♥

I had a lovely dinner with my colleagues today, followed by a cozy TV night with my man. This is actually great, taken that last night was all about reinstalling our PC and failing at it. But I'm sure I will get it sorted out soon - at least with the help of a friend or something. I actually planned out over a week's worth of looks to photograph so that part is covered for a while. Yay!

Today, I'm sharing an Autumn look with you. This one was inspired by a picture I saw on Instagram, but I adapted it a bit to fit my wardrobe better.

Jacket: secondhand Jeans: Cubus Boots: Boohoo Bag: gift from my mom Top: New Yorker Beanie: DIY Scarf: Gina Tricot Deer ring: JC Blue ring: gift from friend

This outfit was something I enjoyed wearing quite a bit. I wore this to a coffee date with a friend, and that's part of the reason I feel so warmly about it. I think. Although the boots and layers are totally my thing in Autumn. I really think they're so comfy! That jacket is from my husbands niece, who is only couple of years younger than me and has lovely style. She was throwing this away and asked if I maybe wanted to have it. And of course I did, look at the color and the detailing, it's perfect Autumn piece!

What do you think about this look? Let me know in the comments!

Bonus pic: His Autumn shoes.

I have yet to convince my husband to do a His Style post, but we're definitely making progress. Here is his favorite pair of shoes this Autumn, and I gotta say I love these ones too. I would definitely wear a similar pair.

That's all for today, next one I put up will actually be a Halloween post - I still have some editing to do with it. I hope you enjoyed this one and do follow me on social media for updates on when I post new stuff on the blog. 

Have a fabulous day ♥

What are you favorites this season? Let me know in the comments!

I will go now, but I'll be back soon with another post. I'm guessing next one might be nail related, but we'll see what I will come up with. Also, I'm happy to tell you I've started prepping my Halloween posts for this year (I'm so early, I know) and hope I can get something good for you to see next month. Before that, remember to follow me on social media for sneak peeks and more fun things along the way.

Have a fantastic day ♥
