Fingerless

Anna-Maria26 Comments

Sometimes you make the greatest finds from the most bizarre places. Take these fingerless leather gloves for example, which I accidentally stumbled upon whilst looking for some driving gloves at a department store. Since when did they start to stock items that are actually wearable in this city? (I have to eat my words here a bit, I’ve found a pair of excellent shoes from the same brand sometime ago.)

One of these guys will be part of my outfit for tonight’s fashion event, just haven’t decided yet which one. More about it later!

Boot straps

If you are tired of all your old shoes, and want to make them a bit more edgy, look no further because a pair of boot straps are the perfect solution to all your problems (thank you Aurora for the tip!). I found mine from a store called Mouseyessim on eBay and since the folks at the store are so nice, they promised to give all of my readers a -10% discount from all of their products!
To get your -10% discount, just mention “Fashion Flux” when you make your purchase, but remember to wait with the payment until they send you an invoice with the discounted price. Happy shopping my beloved readers!

I can say nothing but positive about the store: the communication was excellent, the shipment came here in Finland in three days (they ship from UK), the item was as described, and of course the prices are very reasonable, too. They have quite a lot of new stuff coming in their store, so check it out!

A few weeks ago the Finnish Elle approached me, and asked if my boyfriendand I could participate in a piece about couples sharing a similar style. Along with two other couples, we said yes, and finally today the magazine hit the stores. As for the photos, we had to choose a party and an everyday outfit for the photo shoot, plus pick one of our favorite items.The whole situation was actually quite funny because we had both decided our outfits separately without consolidating each other, yet we ended up in very similar gear. I guess when you have been together with someone for such a long time, intentionally or unintentionally, you start to resemble each other, more or less.

My official photographer, a.k.a. boyfriend, has caught the spring flu from me, meaning photographing is now my and the Gorillapod’s responsibility for the next couple of days. Therefore the strange photos; although it was fun playing with the camera and the sunlight. Frankly, I haven’t worn anything really exciting since Saturday, just some clothes I’ve been able to grasp from my closet during the five minutes I have time each morning to get dressed for work. The red lace-ups have played a major role in my outfits lately and let me tell you, they are really growing on me by every footstep. I’ve also worn the same hairdo since Saturday but tonight these crazy curls will be washed away because I started to feel like some weird hybrid between Jayne Eyre and the characters from Edgar Allan Poe’s work. Then again, that sounds like a pretty cool combination, eh?
