It's almost weekend, and here in Finland, it's Independence Day the day after tomorrow. We have plans to spend that with our friends/relatives, which should be a lot of fun. Tomorrow, I'm having my project class again for the whole day, which is pretty exciting because we're starting properly do stuff (on idea level, at least) which to me equals learning stuff. Can't wait to see what we will do.

I can also proudly say, that I have been more inspired with the blogging things lately, so expect quite many posts this month. There will be hauls, nail art stuff, hopefully my second ever video and all sorts of fun things. But today, I just wanted to share an outfit post.

A week ago, on Saturday, we visited Pori as we were seeing my man's relatives for the day, and so, we figured we should check out the new mall Puuvilla. Puuvilla opened this October, and it is a nice combo of brand new and traditional. It's located where there once was a fabric factory, and the buildings around it are quite old. 

I absolutely love the fact they have kept old brick walls inside, and have managed to incorporate bricks in the modern design as well. And the Christmas lights on the ceiling are just perfect. I think it's cool to have something new like this in Pori, even though we don't live there. But we visit often enough to need fun places to meet people around the town and not just at everyone's homes. 

Call me crazy, but I seriously love that kind of walls so much. I didn't take too many pics as we didn't spend too much time there, but wanted to kinda give you an idea of the style of the building. There are many shops and restaurants around, so if you ever visit Pori, you should definitely check out Puuvilla.

My outfit for the day was kinda simple, playing with plaid, black, red and such. We found this nice outside view to take pics against, and we had daylight! That seems like such a luxury these days.

So I tried to wear a plaid shirt, and quite liked it, although I would prefer flannel over real shirts as it doesn't get as crinkled. But for now, that I don't have flannel ones, this was pretty nice. I actually stole this shirt from my man when he was throwing out old clothes. With a belt, it nearly looks like a good size for me. And if you follow me on Instagram, you probably know how obsessed I am with the scarf here. I wear it daily. It's so comfy and pretty!

But how do you like this look? Let me know in the comments below!

I'm gonna head to a quick shower now, after which I should try to get some sleep so I can be the most productive, innovative version of myself tomorrow morning. And today, I will also have a little cosmetics related stuff up which I'm pretty excited about! So talk to you later.

Have a fantastic day, dolls ♥

I've been doing all sorts of stuff today, and only opened laptop to post this quick post for you. As Christmas is drawing closer, I felt like having lights all over the house is a must. And because they are so pretty, I thought I could share them with you so we can all feel the prettiness and Christmas spirit. If that makes any sense. But without further blabber, I wanna show you our winter/Christmas lights!

I absolutely love having lights everywhere, and I literally have so many I don't even need to have the actual lamps on to see around the apartment when it's dark. And I still feel we could have a couple of more. I'm going crazy, probably. On Friday, we're planning on putting up our tree, so we'll see if I need to get a set or two of lights so that I don't have to take off any that I have already. I don't know what my man thinks about that, either. I will maybe have to sell the idea to him.

Do you have the lights/other Christmas decoration up already?

So, that's my quick little post today, and I hope you guys liked it. I'm currently trying to make my nails dry up so that I could finish the nail art. Like really, the struggle of nail artists... But anyway, I'll talk to you again soon.  Love you darlings!

Have a lovely day ♥

Hi everybody!

I hope you're doing well today ♥

On last Friday, I decided to take my camera with me everywhere I went. It's been a while since I last did a "Day With Me" post. So, welcome to follow me around!

My day started at 7 am, waking up way too early in my opinion. But I had to, because I had a class to go to. So after few minutes of struggling to get up, I finally managed to do so, and get dressed.

Day's outfit was this and combat boots - but more pictures of that on another post. I felt like wearing an easygoing look with plaid that day, even though I knew my day would be quite short.

Then, a quick makeup before getting to the bus. There you can see some of my everyday products. (And if you'd like to see a better everyday routine, just let me know!)

Elevator selfie, because I love to be lame like that. I know most of you have done the same. ;)

At school, we have a class called "Business with Project", which I took on a whim when my friend F told me she would be going as well. And, as I'm so not a morning person, some tea was absolutely needed. And I know I might be weird, but I really love lipstick stains on coffee mugs. Somehow there's something that makes me wanna photograph them. Yes, I know, I'm odd. 

At noon, I headed home. While spending a moment outside when it's daylight time, I was inspired to take some pictures. I should do that more so I could become better at it.

As much as I love, and usually always listen to rock, on Fridays I often feel like something a bit lighter that might make me dance. So I chose the pop list from my Jango Radio and enjoyed.

At home, I made myself a cup of tea, and started reading posts from my Bloglovin' feed. I would love to read more blogs, but with the schedule I have now together with all the time I need to spend on computers with school stuff, it's probably no wonder I don't want to open the laptop every time I have a breather. But on weekends and days off, I luckily have time for that as well.

When my man got home, we ate a little something and then played some rounds of Mario Kart Wii U. It's a new game for us (although we have played older versions) so that was pretty exciting. If you didn't already know, I'm a bit nerdy at times. While I don't play too games too well, I still love playing the easier ones. And NHL, which for me isn't the easiest of all, but still, I'd say it's an easy one. I would love to be better at gaming, but I doubt I'll ever be.

And of course the ones who know me/follow me on Instagram, probably know I'm so addicted to that app. I love pretty pictures so it's the right one for me. I'm also otherwise pretty addicted to my phone, which is a bad habit I'm trying to lose a bit - we'll see how that goes though. Anyone else out there who feels the need to post daily on IG? Anyone?

Because it was the start of the weekend, I made my favorite snack, parmesan cheese popcorn. I could live on that stuff for months. But you know, I know better. That was the perfect snack for watching some TV and all with my man.

And after that, more gaming and blogging. Not too exciting day at all, but such a typical Friday for me (though you can often add 1-3 friends into the mix). I know many people think that all bloggers go to crazy events all the time, but I'm not that kinda girl, just a regular student at least for now. And I love my "boring" kind of days. Although, if I would be partying, I might not have my camera with me so that it doesn't get broken.

Finally after midnight, I got all things done and was ready to bed. As I'm typing this I realized that even with this much love for food, I completely forgot to photograph almost everything I ate that day. But don't worry, I do eat. A lot. Before falling asleep, I usually watch some YouTube videos. I know I should prefer reading to better my sleep, but you know, bad habits. Although I'm guessing I will take up more reading as that is necessary for at least one of my classes this spring.

That's how a day with me looked like today. I think the previous one I did had more exercise in it than this one, but I kinda wanted to show you my typical couch potato day. Because I'm too lazy to do more than walking and stretching every day.

In the comments below, let me know what you think about this post ♥ You can also leave requests for future post as I am open to hearing your wishes.

But now, I'm gonna go see a couple of videos before getting to sleep. Tomorrow, I only have an evening class so it's basically like having a day off - which I love. That gives me time to go for a little jog and do all kinds of fun things. Talk to you as soon as possible, honeys!

Have a fabulous day ♥

I'm hoping your weekend was as good as mine, we visited relatives and just chilled at home - and YES I got some outfit pics taken. So big win this weekend, indeed. I've also been planning buying a new laptop once the after Christmas sales start because my recent one is having issues with itself. Of course, it is almost five years old and I use it pretty much daily so I think it's safe to say it has served me well.

Today, I wanted to do a bit different post. Last Thursday I had a day off, and I decided to try three new products out, one of which I had bought long ago, and two that I recently got.

Well, I know my hair doesn't necessarily have too much orange in it (anymore, as I have dyed it all out), but this was on sale a long time ago and I picked it up to try it out. I wanted to see if it does anything at all to my hair, as it anyway promises to neutralize and freshen up the hair color.

I started with this, my unwashed, little bit yellow hair. As you can see, it has all kinds of warm tones in it. Again, not too, too much orange, but still. I washed my hair, and then applied the product as told in instructions.

In the after picture, I think the texture of the hair may make more difference than the product really. I think it is a bit more neutral here than before, but not any drastic differences. The product made my hair dry up quite a lot, and it took me a while to take all the knots out for the picture. Of course, my hair is a bit difficult as it is, even when it's not too dry, so that's an issue that occurs with quite many products. For me, this probably wasn't the most amazing product ever, but if some of you have had great experiences with it, I'd like to hear about them.

This was something I needed to buy once I broke my favorite £1 mascara by dropping it to the floor. I know, pretty talented, huh? But anyway, I had a hard time choosing from all the ones they sell on the department stores. Until I saw this. Once you put together snake print and the word "rock", you can assume I'm listening. I had to try this one out. Swatches and more below!

I was actually looking for a new nude/mauve color (I know, we all wanna try the Kylie lip, right?), but then I ran into this and couldn't even dream about a plain nude color anymore. I already own this one's sister, Fuchsia Flash and I love that one so much I figured this lighter one would totally be a necessity.

Full face shot with both of the makeup products mentioned above. The lighting sucks yet again but let's not mind about that too much, okay?

So here are the swatches for the mascara. I really think it makes the lashes nice and curved, and it holds pretty well even with few coats. It doesn't flake too much even though it looks like that here because I just threw it on and weren't as careful as I normally am while doing my makeup. I would recommend this, but to be honest I haven't had too many mascaras that wouldn't have worked. Somehow they usually always seem to work for me. Still, I haven't found my dream mascara, so the search is on.

And lastly, swatches of my new lipstick. It's a lovely bright pink that literally pops. You know how I love those. The lipstick is nice and moist, as it is not a matte one, so it's pretty easy to work with. I have two coats here, but it would probably look awesome with one coat as well. But I kinda thought more is more. I know, I'm crazy. But I think this color is pretty cool, since I've gotten compliments on it from my friends who are guys. And my fiance, but he's biased so that doesn't really count. I'm pretty sure I will buy even more of the shades in spring, at least the coral one which looks absolutely perfect.

Have you tried any of these? How did you like them? Let me know in the comments below!

I'm going to hit the bed now, but hopefully I'll get a post up for you again tomorrow. I love reading your comments and reactions so leave those below to brighten my day. If you like the cosmetics posts, stay tuned for a haul/swatch post coming up within a couple of weeks when my Makeup Revolution order arrives. There's so much to show to you. Also, I have other cool things coming up, so check back from time to time or follow me on my social media accounts to updates whenever I post new stuff. Talk to later!

Have a great day honeys ♥
