Hello lovelies! How are you today? ♥ I've been enjoying the start of autumn and the little things in life so much lately, and I really hope you have too. Like mentioned, the autumn really makes me feel alive like never before - which I actually talked about with my cousin yesterday and she felt the same - and I hope that will translate also to my blog and social media content.

Today, we're digging the archives a bit and checking out these nail designs I've failed to post earlier. But now is as good time as ever to post them. I think.

Hello lovelies!

How are you today? ♥

Hello darlings!

How are you all doing today? ♥

Sorry for the unnecessarily long blogging break, but as we've been at the country in a way, and it's been rainy with thunder, I haven't really had the chance to blog and all. Anyway, I figured tonight it's finally time to get a new post out, and I promise there will be a new one up on Sunday night the latest.

Now, what's up with everything? My vacation has started well and all, even with the coeliac disease diagnose I got on Monday. So it's gluten free diet for me from now on, which feels like a challenge but I'm totally happy to do it because it makes my body stay healthier. So that's all the big news this time. If you want, I can write something about my lifestyle change later on when I really see what it does to me.

Today's post is about my simple birthday look from last month. We never really celebrated, because I had to work that night, but we did go to an early dinner that day. As you can see, this was way before my gluten free diet, so if you see strange things, not to worry - I'm not eating exactly like that anymore.



We went to eat at Pancho Villa, which is a nice line of restaurants in Finland that make reasonably priced food with Mexican touch. I ordered chicken with chèvre cheese, fries and veggies. It was pretty tasty, I must say. My man had one of the burgers, and apparently it was good as well.



And because it was my birthday, I drank one beer.

As it was just a casual day, I didn't have anything that amazing to wear, but I figured it was nice enough to share with you guys!



Even with the lack of tan, I thought it was nice to wear all white outfit for the warm summer day that it was. I spiced the whole thing up with pink and rose gold, and just threw along a random bag that happened to have my stuff in it.



Bracelets: Accessories, Gina Tricot, Seppälä Watch: Born Pretty Store Necklace: Gina Tricot



Tee: Cubus Shorts: DIY Shoes: Skopunkten Bag: random shoe store Sunglasses: H&M

So, that's my casual birthday look for this year. Maybe next year, I will be able to have a bit more festive birthday and so on, but this was perfect for now.

Let me know what you think about the look! ♥

Tomorrow, we're heading to Kuopio Wine Festival with our friends, and I'm guessing it will create so many fun memories. Hang out with me via Twitter, Facebook or Instagram to keep up what we're doing. But nevertheless, see you all here on Sunday!

Also, happy 4th of July to all my friends in the US, hopefully the storms haven't been causing too much harm to you and your loved ones.

Have a great day, everyone ♥

Hello gorgeous people!

How's your weekend going? ♥ We're currently just chilling home as our guests are visiting a housewarming party of their other friends, so I figured I'd use the time to blog. I've been excited to post this one for you as it is a bit different than usually.

Today's post is a nail art post - which isn't really different - but the twist here is that the nail art was actually inspired by this gorgeous outfit I saw on other blogger's site and thought it would look amazing as nail art. You can first check out the inspiring outfit here in Carla's blog: http://www.carlaviolet.com/2014/05/resort-ready.html

And then, see my nail art version of it:



Blue and white, hand-painted floral print and studs. Studs just because I really need them everywhere.



The polishes I used were China Glaze White On White, Splish Splash and Ciaté Headliner. The studs are from Born Pretty Store.



I really liked this mani and I think I should definitely find more inspiration from fashion and style, because I follow so many blogs and always keep seeing different outfits, but many of them wouldn't suit my personal style so I could just wear them on my nails.



So, what do you guys think about these? ♥

Now, I will go read some blogs while waiting our friends, but I try to be back tomorrow with another post.

Have a lovely day!

Hey lovelies!

How are you all? ♥

Again, I'm posting super late, but today I'm really struggling getting everything done before the guests arrive, so I'm cutting some hours off my sleeping time (kids, never do the same!) as I didn't want to not blog today. I still need to tidy up the place a bit in the morning, so I guess I'll end up with like 4 hours of sleep or something. But thankfully, on Sunday I get to sleep in a bit and on Wednesday I'll actually have a day off for once!

Anyway, today I just wanted to quickly share a simple outfit with you before going to plan one for tomorrow's hockey game.



This outfit is something I wore couple of weeks ago when I was hanging out with the boys, bowling, playing pool, etc. But I still tried to keep a bit girly, so I added some red to the bottom and on my lips as well.













Top: secondhand Jeans: secondhand Belt: Gina Tricot Coat: Boohoo Scarf: Mango Chain ring: Nelly.com Necklace: Gina Tricot Bracelets: Gina Tricot, Born Pretty Store Boots: SpiritStore

So, this was my chill out outfit, very simple with colors I really like, and it also has two secondhand items which is always a plus.

But now, let me know: What do you think about this look? ♥

I need to go pick up my clothes for tomorrow and then get some sleep. I'll get back as soon as I can - on Monday by the latest - and I also try to update my Instagram, Twitter or Facebook during the weekend so you can catch me there if you need me!

Have a fabulous weekend ♥

Hi lovelies

How are you all today? ♥

I had a great day, I once again started it with a jog, and in the afternoon I had a date with my friend L. It was so good to get to gossip about things and just get a laugh with a girlfriend, I totally needed it. Thanks L, you rock! ♥

Anyway, today's post is just a quite short one with nail art pictures - as I'll have a longer one coming up tomorrow or the day after. As usual, I have two looks for you here, hope you like them!



First one is a bright pink mani with gold glitter. Again I was doing a leopard print, since I just love it so much.



The polishes I used were China Glaze Escaping Reality (two coats over a white polish), China Glaze I'm Not Lion (two coats over a random gold polish) and Essie Licorice.



I was pretty happy with these nails, they have all the great elements ;) My cuticles aren't at their prettiest here, so sorry about that!



And for once, the two manicures have something in common. They're both pink!



...this one just isn't quite as bright. So here's a little half moon mani I made with white (Essie Blanc) and soft pink (Sally Hansen Sweetie Pie).



Again, sorry about the cuticles, they were in horrible shape back then, but I've gotten them better since.



I should've done these with the help of stickers, but I tried to practice my free hand painting - you can never do that too much! Also, my top coat was running low, so you can see pretty ugly stripes here and there :P Lesson there: when you have a fast dry top coat, make sure there's enough of it before using or it'll end up looking nasty!

But, your turn: What do you think about the manicures here? And, what are you wearing in your nails today? ♥

This girl is off to bed now, but I'll get back as soon as I can!

Have a fantastic day ♥¨

Blog ya later,

xoxo
