12 Days of Christmas 2020: Sleighing the Look

Hey my loves, it's been a while since the last post. I've been insanely busy with work and school, and since posting on Instagram is ways more effortless than writing a full on blog post, I've really only been active there. However, at least for this month, we are back with new content (I don't know how my spring schedule will look like, so I can't make decisions for that quite yet, I'll keep you updated once I know more!). Like the title says, there will be 12 posts leading to Christmas, and they all have been planned out already. I'm very excited for you to see them all, I ran couple of the ideas through my bestie before locking them into my schedule and since she approved, you'll all get to see them. 

And to answer to potential question of why 12 December posts and not 24. Honestly, lack of time. I can't get through rest of the work and school tasks of the year and to be able to do daily content here that still stays relevant, informative and/or entertaining. I rather bring you quality, which is why I was on accidental hiatus instead of posting half-assed texts for you.

To kick off this month, I wanted to share this outfit with you. It's my take on metal babe meets festive, and while I would wear this all year round, the shade of green here is, in my opinion, pretty perfect for the season.

Black & Burgundy

Hello lovelies! How are you today? ♥ I finally got myself into a theater to watch the new Star Wars film and I really liked it a lot. So, if you haven't seen it, you probably should. I've been so bad at going to movies since I've been introduced to Viaplay because I love staying at home in cozy clothes and under blanket instead of putting myself together and going out and about.

But in today's post I am being somewhat put together. This is another unpublished look from the archives, and I'm hoping to get new pictures with winter on the background soon - maybe even tomorrow.

Style Session: Leatherette

Hey lovelies! How has your weekend been? ♥ I'm so excited for the start of the F1 season as well as getting to spend time with the guys. While I love my girl friends to bits, I nearly wind up more with my guys. Last night, I overdid myself and actually managed to win couple of rounds of pool. I've basically never done that before.

Today, it's time to team up with Alexandra from City Chic Living and bring you Style Session, in the theme of leather. If you haven't ever checked her blog out, now is the time to do so. Start by checking her Style Session post here.

Our theme for the week was picked by me, because, as you know, I love all things leather.
 

Army Inspired

Hello lovelies! How are you today? ♥ I've been getting so much better with the flu already and I've also gotten more of my school stuff in order. It feels so good, and I'm feeling like so many things are falling in place right now. That's also the case with blogging. I had a bit of a slump there during January and February, but I feel more inspired now to write and do stuff. It's the sunlight, it totally charges me differently than to darkness we call winter here in Finland.I still have to warn you a bit about possible inconsistency with my schedule here, because I'll be starting my thesis pretty much right now, and I don't know how much that will take my time and energy. But once that's done, I will definitely have loads of time for blogging and maybe even making videos at some point.

Anyway, I think that's more than enough blabbering to start out this post, so why don't we get into the army inspired outfit of the day:

Winter look

Earthy Winter Tones

Hello lovelies! How are you all today? ♥ Yesterday was  flash of rain that went by super fast for me. I'm shocked how fast time flies right now, I would have a ton to do but not nearly enough time. Blogger problems, right? Who else feels like that? Anyway, today I really wanted to share this outfit post with you. The pictures were taken on the weekend, when there still was some snow. (Now, it has melted again. Boo.) I love shooting with snow on the background, because it brings so much more light to the photos!

Blogmas Day 3, Fur Vest & Leather Pants

Hey lovelies! I hope you're having a great third day of December! How many of you checked out yesterday's video? If you didn't, click here and you can see it on yesterday's post. Today, I'm wearing similar makeup on the pictures, so you can see how it plays out on broad daylight. And there's also a winter outfit. Enjoy!

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!

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:

White Vest

Hey lovelies!

How are you today? ♥

I had a very fun work day and after that I've been focusing on crafts and blog stuff - and got to read other blogs after a great while, which was amazing. I've missed that a lot. Today, I just wanted to quickly share this office look with you. I wore this to work a while back and liked it a lot.

DSC09743 (Large)DSC09749 (Large)DSC09768 (Large)DSC09731 (Large)DSC09778 (Large)DSC09786 (Large)DSC09756 (Large)

Vest: Gina Tricot Shirt: gift from my mom Skirt: Gina Tricot Lace trimmed biker shorts: Gina Tricot Necklace: Gina Tricot Sandals: SpiritStore Bracelets: H&M Rings: H&M, Gina Tricot, Born Pretty Store

So this was a simple look for the office. I think this would've been great with black or white pumps, but I prefer flats at the office because they don't get my feet all sore. I also think the lace peeking from under the skirt was a fun detail, taken that the collared shirt and the leather vest can be though as masculine items. So contrasts. Or something.

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

Now, I'm gonna go hit the bed so that I'll have enough energy tomorrow. I will be back soon with another post, so stay tuned for that - and in the meantime you can follow me on social media to see more frequent updates. 

I love you all so much, have a fantastic day ♥

Skeleton

Hello lovelies!

How are you today? ♥

This Monday flew by incredibly fast and I feel like I haven't gotten anything done outside the workplace. Which is pretty much true, we only did some grocery shopping and washed a bit laundry, which is quite little for Monday. But I guess the easy start was needed then. 

Today, I have a quick outfit post for you with probably one of the edgiest outfits I've ever shown here. I like to go a bit overboard with my outfits sometimes, and I guess you could say this is one of those times. But I personally loved it, and I hope at least some of you will too.

Skeleton top: eBay Leather shorts: H&M Jacket: secondhand Tights: ASOS Boots: Skobox Necklace: Gina Tricot Bracelets: KappAhl, H&M, gift from friend, Europehouse Rings: eBay, Born Pretty Store

So there. I know this might be something you either love or hate passionately, but I personally like it. I feel so confident when I'm wearing rock clothes, and I feel like I'm able to do more things. I get plenty of hateful looks for wearing things like these, or even a tad milder ones, but novadays that's just how I know my look is on point (hear my inner rebel in that sentence?). The top was such a great find from the internet, and can't wait to get more items like that later on. Also, if someone knows where I can get affordable vintage band shirts, please leave tips on the comments so I could find some to my closet!

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

Now that it's way past my bedtime and all, it's the perfect time to go get a quick shower and slap some tan on so my skin can start prepping for the coming weekend at the cabin. I will see you all very soon with another post, and hopefully soon I will have some wedding pics to share with you. 

Have a fabulous day ♥

Rocking It

Hello lovelies!

How are you all today? ♥

I've been having such a nice (albeit normal) day today, and I don't know why, but I've been in a super great mood. Also, I had to do a little customs clearance for my latest nail haul today, which was easier than I ever imagined and hopefully I will get my package within few days now. I will be doing a haul post about them - and if only I had a good video camera, I would totally do a haul video. But maybe later in life we will have those.

Now, to today's topic, which is this outfit we photographed a little while back, and which I loved a lot.

Leather jacket: H&M Skull tee: Gina Tricot Leggings: secondhand Plaid shirt: secondhand Boots: SpiritStore Necklace: Gina Tricot Bracelets: Gina Tricot Rings: Gina Tricot, H&M, gift from friend

So I personally really loved everything about this look, I know it may look like a mess to some, but to me it's pretty perfect. Even if I would love the sunny weather with warmth so I could wear shorts and all, I still like the fact I can try all these school appropriate looks before the school actually starts. 

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

Now, I need to hit the bed so that I will have the energy to get through yet another work day. But I must say, I would be pretty ready to start the weekend already because we have so fun things planned for it. ;) Anyway, I will see you soon in another post, but in the meantime you can follow me around social media to see some behind the scenes kind of things (which I will start posting more!) and more.

Have a fabulous day ♥ 

I Wanna Be Your Superhero

Hello lovelies!

How are you all today? ♥

I'm currently having a marathon prep for the blog posts, so that I can get some material done beforehand for next week. Next week, I won't be spending too much time on the laptop because it's our wedding week, but I will schedule few posts during the weekend so that I don't have to abandon the blog altogether. It feels unbelievable that within few days, I will be a Mrs. Not that I complain, because after all my man is my best friend (and my photographer!) so it just feels right to properly share my life with him. I will probably be posting sugary stuff around the web soon quite a bit, so try to hang in there through that.

Today, I'm posting a look I wore few weeks ago, and loved quite a bit. And I hope you will too!

Iron Man Skirt: Primark Cardigan: H&M Top: H&M Vest: Cubus Necklace: from a friend Sneakers: Boohoo Rings: Born Pretty Store, Gina Tricot, H&M Bracelets: Gina Tricot, H&M, KappAhl, from a friend Aviators: H&M

I'm still in love with that skirt, the print is just so on point. I'm hoping to find other pieces like that later on, so that I can add some fun to my everyday outfits. I've been eyeing Batman prints for a while now, and I'm sure once I get a good deal for an item with Batman on it, I will buy it. Okay, the outfit here. (Stay on point, girl!) I loved the idea of layering because the summer has been pretty chilly around here, and I also liked the way all the shades looked together. I hope I can pair that skirt in more summery way later this year, because I have a nice little idea how to combine that. You'll see later. I hope.

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

Now, I'm going to enjoy a rare treat and actually get some tea and sit down reading blogs. I can't remember the last time I actually did that, so that should be amazing. I will talk to you very soon, but in the meantime you can follow me around Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Snapchat, where I share bits and pieces which don't always make it to the blog. At the moment, I'm doing the #julybeautychallenge on Instagram, so f you're into beauty stuff, follow me there and like my posts, so I know what you guys maybe would like to see in the future.

Have a fantastic day, dolls ♥

Neutral Look

Hello my lovelies!

How are you all today? ♥

I hope you are having a lovely Friday and that you have a nice weekend planned. I think I may be taking things easy and I will concentrate on reading for an revision exam, which will take place on Monday. So, pretty uneventful weekend for me, but at least it's the weekend of Monaco GP so I can have a dose of motorsports if nothing else.

Today, I'm sharing a look from last month that is actually photographed by my mom instead of my hubby-to-be. And I think we did a decent job with her on this. Love you mom!

Vest: Cubus Jacket: secondhand Jeans: Gina Tricot Knit: Boohoo Booties: SpiritStore Scarf: secondhand Bag: Mango Bracelets: Gina Tricot, DIY, KappAhl, Born Pretty Store (c/o) Necklaces: Born Pretty Store (c/o), Gina Tricot

Playing with neutral shades again. I've gotten more into the whole neutral scheme lately, although nothing beats the classic of all classics, black. Which is why I wore lot of black here as well. I also think I brought my rock vibe into this look pretty nicely with the skulls and all, so this outfit was very me even if it's a bit more girly in color.

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

Now, I will go hit the bed as I finally get to sleep next to my man after a long week of not even seeing him. I missed him so much and hope that tonight I will sleep better than in all week. Call me over-attached, but I don't know how to sleep well without him beside me. (I know, that's pretty lame.) I will be back tomorrow with some pretty exciting summer product testing, so stay tuned for that!

Have a lovely weekend ♥

With My Truck ♥

Hello my lovelies!

How are you all today? ♥

I'm super happy because I signed my internship papers a couple of days ago, so my summer will be spend working with marketing stuff - and I also get a giant monkey off my back as this will cover most of my mandatory internship for the degree. Now I just need to get few exams, one case and some other stuff done, and then I can officially say I'm on the smaller half of my studies. I'm so happy to finally feel like I actually can graduate and that I am on the right track with the business studies.

And that also makes me a better blogger, because this inner peace gives me new energy to write. At least, once I get through my exams. I will have a couple more later in the spring/in the early summer, but that won't bother me too much.

Okay, enough school rant? I think so too. Maybe we should proceed to the outfit of the day?

Jacket: H&M Pants: H&M Shirt: secondhand Scarf: secondhand Booties: SpiritStore Bracelet: SpiritStore Rings: Gina Tricot, H&M Necklace: H&M

Simple look with a lovely shirt I hunted from a thrift store. I love absolutely every item in this outfit, and I think they play along quite nicely. The truck was a perfect backdrop for the photos, as it was pretty unusual - and more interesting than a plain parking lot. 

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

Now, I'm gonna go hit the bed as it's 1am, because I've deserved a good night's sleep after all the video shooting and other stuff today. More on that probably later on, but now, I need my sleep. Talk to you very soon though!

Have a wonderful weekend ♥

Let's be friends in IG!
