Hello lovelies!

How has your weekend been? ♥

I have just been relaxing, watching sports and making plans for the rest of the year. Right now, I'm itching to do little reorganizing in my working space/our guest room (if you can call it a room) and I think I will do that once I finish with this post. I'm thinking I might actually do an update for the house tour at the end of this week. Would that be nice?

Anyway, today I'm just wanting to share this simple school look with you. Never mind my face and hair being very undone, that's simply how I look on days I simply don't bother.



Knit: Boohoo Jeans: Gina Tricot/DIY Boots: eBay Necklace: Gina Tricot Bag: Mango

So this is something I wore when I hadn't really planned ahead, but it was comfortable to wear, so I didn't mind it being not so much in trend. (Though seriously, when am I ever in trend...) I absolutely love those ripped jeans, even if they are so much my own work. Also, the boots are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own, so I plan on wearing them until they break apart. But I should probably try and wash them before that, right? :D

In the comments, let me know what you think about this casual look!

Next time, I will be showing a bit more business kind of look, so stay tuned if you want to see something a bit more polished. Now, I'm going to go through my work space clothing rack and all the shelves, so that I can once again get rid of all the clutter. Stay tuned for that update as well.

Have a fantastic day ♥

Heya guys!

Hope your weekend went as well as ours. We were spending time with relatives and friends in Pori this weekend and I got the much needed break from school stuff (except for my project management book which I carry everywhere). Now, starting a new school week doesn't feel so bad.

I was supposed to post this last night, but my laptop wouldn't take any of that and crashed. I would've needed to do school stuff too, but of course that didn't happen either. Oh well. Anyway, today I really wanted to show you these two nail art designs I had on my nails a while back.



First up, this pretty simple design with only two polishes and some studs. Nothing too fancy, but I really did like this.



The polishes I used were China Glaze Highlight Of My Summer and It's A Trap-Eze! The little studs are from Born Pretty Store.



This other one has a little more to it. I tried something a bit new, and I actually liked how it came out.



The polishes I used are China Glaze White On White, Smoke And Ashes, Gossip Over Gimlets and Shore Enuff. All the studs are from Born Pretty Store as usual.



So, that's what I have for you today. Hope you enjoyed this post!

Let me know what you think about these manicures in the comments below!

Now, I will head to school and try to learn something new. I'll be back with a new post some time tomorrow, so stay tuned.

Have a fabulous week, dolls! ♥

Hello ladies and gents!

How are you all? ♥

Today has been such a great day, I've been so energetic and gotten so much done - like car things, clean up, laundry, makeup pictures, outfit photos... I can't believe I'm feeling so good with only some little changes in my life. I was actually supposed to sit down and type this earlier, but I got caught up with all the other things so I am, again, writing a post in the middle of the night. Quite literally, as it is past midnight already.

Anyway, what I wanted to share with you was couple of new nail art designs, both in lovely mint color but other than that, they're pretty different.



First, a simple studded mani with glitter accent nails. Not much to say about it really, just something that was nice to wear.



The shades I used here were China Glaze At Vase Value and It's A Trap-Eze! I really haven't used It's A Trap-Eze enough, it's such a gorgeous milky glitter polish that builds up nicely with 2-3 layers and looks pretty multidimensional in a way.



And yes, they're still my fingers, I just had some self-tanner on in between so my skin looks darker. Anyway, after such a long time, I made another leopard mani. I know you guys see a ton of these here, but that's really something I like to paint.



I really liked the color scheme here. It's not very typical - for me at least, so it feels nice to show this here.



The polishes I used were China Glaze Highlight Of My Summer, Elephant Walk, Gossip Over Gimlets, Snow Globe, Essie Licorice and IsaDora Glowing Beetle. I also used a dotting tool to help out with the print.



So that kind of things today. I really hope you liked these, tomorrow I will have a bit of a thrift haul for you, so definitely stay tuned for that!

Let me know what you think about these designs, and you can also tell me what colors you are rocking on your nails today!

Now, I gotta go hit the bed so that I can get up nice and early to do more laundry and stuff.

Have a lovely day ♥

Hey everyone!

How are you all today? ♥

I've been up and moving the whole day, eating out, checking out a couple of stores, having a coffee, going to a hockey game... The kind of things that make the life good. I was hoping to get into writing earlier, but hey, midnight writing suits for me as well. (I get a nice reason to take in some tea on unreasonable hours, hehe.)

Anyway, like you know, most of my outfits try to be well planned and so on, but today I just wanted to show you something I simply just threw on one weekend for hanging out with friends at our place. Also the photos show some of the things I do when I hang at home, so they're not very cool and creative but hey, let's not mind about that, right?















Knit: Boohoo Leggings: Nelly.com Socks: H&M Scarf: a gift Necklace: a gift Rings: H&M, Gina Tricot, gifts

Okay, it's not like I hang out around the house looking like this all the time - the truth is, rather, that I wear a pair of sports pants and a simple tee, but that really doesn't make it into a nice post, huh? But the one time I looked somewhat nice, I thought it would be fun to take photos.

What do you wear when spending time just relaxing at home? ♥

Now, I need to shut down the laptop and go try get some sleep - after watching some TV and going through a couple of boxes. So much to rearrange and throw away! (Yes, I have a major de-cluttering urge at the moment, better make the most of it, right?)

Have a great weekend, loves!

Hi lovelies!

How are you all? ♥

I've been busy as usual, with work, life and such. This post was supposed to see the light of day yesterday, but better late than never, right? I've been doing little more organizing at home, and I hope I get to show you some of that soon enough. ;) The reason for that is that as the weather is getting seriously colder, and I have to spend more time inside, so the place needs to look extra nice. Today, we got our first glimpse of winter as it snowed outside. Though, it didn't stay, yet, but it reminded us that the cold season is seriously starting.

Anyways, today I wanted to show you some more nail art. Both manicures today are somewhat geometric, but otherwise totally different.



First, a mint base, triangles, and a milky glitter polish.





I actually loved the glitter polish so much more than I thought I would, it's so unique compared to the other ones I have. But that's just because it's hard and expensive to get the gorgeous indie glitter bombs here in Finland, as most of the best indie makers are based in the US. But, once I have a full-time job, I'm sure I can at least get few. Or, after No Buy months such as this one.



The polishes used here are Essie Mint Candy Apple, China Glaze It's A Trap-eze and Kiss Nail Art Paint in turquoise. I also used tape to create the triangles more neatly.





The other one today is a tape manicure as well - though with this one I simply used striping tape. This is one of the things you can easily do if you want something different, but don't feel like painting something complicated. I promise that everyone can do this, all you need is a striping tape, scissors, two polishes, and a little time.





This kind of manicure is great for any place, and any time, since it's basically just a French manicure with a twist. You can do this with any colors, as long as the one for the tips has enough pigment to cover the other one.



The polishes I used for this were Essie Muchi Muchi and China Glaze Gossip Over Gimlets. I love the China Glaze one, the gold color is simply amazing. I can't wait to use this color again, and I really need to try this for stamping.



So, that kind of simple designs today.

What do you think of these manicures? And which one is your favorite? ♥

Now, I gotta go plan my polish reorganizing tomorrow, as well as get some tea for late night blog reading, so I'll be back later with another post. Stay tuned!

Have a fun weekend! 

Blog ya later,

xoxo

Hi there lovelies!

How was your weekend? ♥

Mine was totally about watching sports and relaxing, and we also went to try out a club me and my fiance had never been in. It was quite fun, though I bet I would enjoy it more with a girlfriend so I could actually go dancing, unlike with boys. :D But anyway, the weekend was pretty fun and it doesn't feel so bad to go back to work tonight.

This week, I have planned many different posts for you. I really truly hope they will be fun to read, and remember, you can always request posts - I love to know what you guys would like to see here. ;)

But anyway, today, I have another outfit to show you. This one is a comfy outfit I wore a weekend we spent with our friends a while back. It's much more colorful than what I usually wear, but I really did like it.














Leather jacket: H&M Scarf: Mango Bag: gift from my parents Boots: Boohoo Jeans: Cubus Beanie: Cubus Necklaces: Gina Tricot Bracelets: Gina Tricot, Nelly.com, H&M

So, a very simple look, that is super comfy and warm, and of course it had a pair of boots in it. The one thing I don't like about my shopping ban is that I can't invest in a pair of boots - which probably are my worst shopping addiction in Autumn. Luckily I have those beauties from last year, as well as one, dark brown pair I haven't even worn despite the fact I've had them for months in my closet now. (As you can see, the shopping ban is good for me!)

But, what do you guys think about the look? Anyone else out there with an addiction to boots?

Now, this girl needs to head to a shower and clean up the place a bit (it's so messy after the weekend, gosh!) before heading to work. But, I'll be back soon!

Have a great start for your week, dolls! ♥

Blog ya later,

xoxo
