SEPTEMBER SUCKS

September 10, 2018

I am not one of those people who like autumn. I don´t enjoy dark and chilly nights. I don´t understand when people rejoice about how nice it is to wear woolly sweaters again and how they can´t wait to get their new autumn jackets out in the cold. I´m already done with blogs and social media posts about candles and warm blankets in the cold, dark night. Don´t get me wrong, blankets are my weapon of choice when I´m protecting myself from the chill, but I shure as hell don´t romanticize about that shit. There´s one thing that I like about autumn. It´s the only time of the year when I get to lie in my bed all day without someone constantly trying to get me outside to do stuff.

Sorry (not sorry) about the negativity, but I have been fighting an aggressive flu for the past three weeks. I don´t know what kind of a super flu this is, but it has been f****d. Luckily, we have a proper fireplace at home, it´s a real life saver and one of the few things that help me stay sane in the upcoming months. Can´t wait to get that thing going, I will definitely post lots of pics of me hanging in a woolly sweater by the fireplace, surrounded by blankets and candles 😉

THE DRESS

August 11, 2018

I´m crazy about girly dresses. Seriously. This summer I´ve been wearing them more than anything. Then again, my jeans and other pants don´t seem to fit me anymore, so…

This dress may not be the most practical, but I love it to death. Yes, there is a constant threat of me flashing someone, but I don´t care because I love the color. And the fabric. And the short sleeves. I rarely wear longer dresses, since I´m pretty short myself, but this seems to fit me well. I was on the verge of bying a second one in a different color, but then I came to my senses, since this dress is not for everyday use. Or what do you think… would you wear something like this, say, at work? You know what I mean.

Otherwise things are back to normal, apart from the fact that we are back looking for a new apartment! We have managed to find a place that just begs for a proper makeover, but there are a lot of if´s involved. Exciting times, since I know we could turn that place into something special…but it´s way too early, so I don´t wanna get ahead of myself. My criteria for a perfect apartment are quite broad and that is why we don´t run into potential places that often. More of that later, I´ll keep you guys posted!

THINGS THAT KICKED ASS IN JULY

July 23, 2018

I´ve made a lot of cool discoveries during my vacation. Being able to spend four weeks in a completely different setting than my normal everyday life has once again been a real eye-opener. Getting away from modern city life takes a while of getting used to, but after I settled down, I could enjoy the little things, smells, sounds, tastes, losing sense of time, etc. Here´s a list of the best things so far:)

Anything made out of linen

Crepes with strawberry jam and whipped cream

Random encounters with feral cats & kittens

White nail polish

Liquorice powder – I could eat it straight from the can

Watching grain slowly turning from green to yellow

Picking raspberries from our summerhouse garden

Rainbows

Wearing my boyfriend´s large t-shirts

Relaxing on my daybed

Walking on old self-made rag rugs

Sipping white wine

Listening to the sounds of tractors in the distance

Using old dishes

Wearing face cream that smells like pear soda from my childhood

Bluebells

Strawberry-rhubarb pie

Island hopping by boat

Hanging at the summer cottage’s pier

Hair braids

Midnight boat rides

Wearing scarfs in my hair

Strawberry mint smoothies

Playing cards

Listening to podcasts (e.g Ysistä viiteen)

Taking pictures with a classic film camera from the 70´s

I NEED MORE BIKINIS

July 20, 2018

Let´s be honest, things have gotten a little out of hand, once again. I´ve bought at least fifteen swimsuits during the past six months. First I needed them for our trip abroad, then for my summer vacay and then it just snowballed from there. So lately I´ve been spending a lot of time online searching for the best ones.

The funny thing is that I used to dislike the whole idea of browsing and fitting swimsuits. I could write a book on which shops in Helsinki have the worst and the most disgusting fitting rooms (an honorable mention goes to Monki on Aleksanterinkatu). Recently, I have only been shopping online, so the issue with fitting rooms is solved for now, thank god!

Another thing I´ve been struggling with, has been seeing myself in a swimsuit. I ´ve always been really critical on myself. Way too critical if you ask people close to me. In order to get my head straight, I need a steady routine with exercise, diet and rest. If I don´t exercise, my diet is automatically terrible. In return, when I exercise, I eat healthier. It should be other way around, I know, but please tell that to my head. Maybe I´m getting older and wiser, since there are signs that I might get over this issue at some point.

I don´t know why I´m so much into swimwear all of a sudden, maybe it´s the warm summer that has gotten me going, who knows. All I know is now that I´m set with swimsuits, it´s time to move onto bikinis!

PS. If you know any dodgy fitting rooms, please give us a heads up and comment below!
