My new boyfriend (jeans)

Guess what the postman brought me on Tuesday? Yup, the famous Levi’s 501 boyfriend jeans. I almost couldn’t believe my luck when I read that I had won these from the stylish Stella’s blog competition awhile back, and now they are actually mine (alongside with Cat Power’s latest, yay!).
Wearing Levi’s 501s again after so many years is certainly a trip down the memory lane; these used to be pretty much my uniform in elementary school and throughout junior high school as well. They are so comfy and relaxed; it feels very liberating to wear something like this after a long period of skinny jeans. It’s no wonder I’ve been wearing this every single day since I got them, even last night when we went out dancing.
Levi’s 501 boyfriend jeans – you have officially earned your way into my daily wardrobe!

Somebody lurks in the shadows

Ten points to the reader who guesses what I therapy shopped from the online discounts a few weeks ago. This amazing designer piece is hanging on my clothing rack at the moment, and will get it’s premier this weekend at the Monsters of Pop festival. If you are in the Tampere area, MOP is definitely something worth checking out!

More about this grey, shadowy dream piece to come. Now I’m off to watch one of the best TV-shows at the moment which goes by the name True Blood. Fits the mood of this garment perfectly.

8 holes

A year long wait is now over and my new puppies have finally found their way home. These white eight hole Dr. Martens seem to be sold out everywhere, especially in my foot size but luckily my boyfriend managed found them and on discount, too. How great is that?! They will be so handy during Flow Festival this Saturday. Hmm… what to pair these with though? The options are endless, so you just gotta wait and see.

Combat boots: Dr. Martens

P.S. Don’t forget my blog’s birtday competiton. It will end on Saturday, so hurry!

Howling at the moon

My retreat in Lapland did not completely consist of residing in the country, and one sunny afternoon I decided to check out the city life of Rovaniemi. My trip to the town resulted a quick purchase of a very fashionable item from – belive it or not – a tourist shop. It was something that has been circling around the fashion world ever since Martin Margiela decided to bring them back from the 90’s last summer. So yup, as you might have guessed it, my purchase was an epic animal print t-shirt with wolves. After spending a few moments giggling and then seriously considering the shirt, I just couldn’t resist it anymore; especially after I had read this amazing story awhile back (thank’s Lulu for the link).
 
To test my latest find, I wore this outfit to A Place to Bury Strangers gig the other day and to be completely honest, I think some of the old time geeks might have glanced at my shirt with an approval. Does this mean I’m getting popular already? Damn, that review was right.
