Glass Candy, part 1

Lately shoulder pads have been making a somewhat of a return into my closet (perfect for my frame, can’t argue with that), and this moderately shoulder padded dress is one of the scores I made in Berlin last week (Berlin posts still to come, I promise, just need to go over like 300 photographs!). The Ann Demeulemeester boots are also something new, though second hand; I made such a steal with those in Berlin as well. Man, I love that city (I’m actually booking tickets to go back for New Years with bunch of friends). The bag and the bracelet are also from there.

My partner in crime Laura was looking great as usual and we ended up having had oh-so-fun night that I have to make two separate posts to cover all the damage, so more about Glass Candy a bit later. Toodles for now, folks!

Everyday is a Halloween

Last night we celebrated the spookiest night of the year with good company, a Jack O Lantern, pumpkin pie and some red wine. We also ended up checking out the the local gothic club, figuring it was one of the only costume parties going on with music that would fit the mood perfectly. Such a fun night it was, too! Thank you my friends.

I did the classic trick and became a vampire vamp for the night, as I’ve always had a thing for those sexy beasts. It’s no wonder I’m a total sucker for True Blood and anything vampire related. Tonight I will probably finally watch the Vampire Diaries (I always see the advertisements during Gossip Girl), especially when after realizing my boy Ian Somerhalder is part of the cast.

P.S., if someone wants to get a great set of vampire teeth, I can recommend these fellas, they have to be the best vampire teeth makers out there! Unfortunately they don’t ship abroad but not to worry, I got my Sexy Bites via eBay.

P.P.S. Berlin is calling next week! Any tips?

Happy Halloween everyone!

Barbie girl

Ever since I was a little girl, I always wanted to organize costume parties; there is just something intriguing about becoming a totally different character, even if it’s just for a day. Last night one of my long time costume party ideas came to reality, when we celebrated my birthday with a Barbie & Ken theme. Unfortunately I don’t have too much material of my fabulous guests’ outfits (and they would probably kill me if I published anything) but at least you can see my dress that I’ve been saving for ages, the decorations, and the amazing Barbie cake made by Laura’s big sister from the Jauhot Suussa blog.

After Sing Staring and being stuffed from all the party food, we headed to Hang the Dj club which was also celebrating it’s birthday. I was particularly happy when they played Prince’s Raspberry Beret from request but naturally the birthday girl should get her wish, right?

I want to thank all my guests for showing up, you all looked so lovely! Next time we are dressing up for Halloween, oh yes yes yes!

This is our decision, to live fast or die young, we got the vision, now let’s have some fun!

As promised, here are some more pictures from the past weekend. These are all from Saturday’s craziness, I can’t recall the last time when I’ve had such a random and fun night in this city. We ended up seeing the New Wine and the Finnish electro legend Op:l Bastards at MOP, who also hung out with us at the backstage for a bit. In the end it was just our gang invading the space, eating their leftover sandwhiches and sodas. We also ended up to the strangest after party with DJ decks and spin the bottle (don’t ask me how and what went on after that).

I wore my newest purchase, the Rick Owens DRKSHDW tunic dress which is so comfortable and well tailored that I literally want to live in it from now on. Essi was looking fabulous as always, and we just had to take some mutual shots to show how we almost have the same profile! She really feels like the little sister that I never had, that’s how similar we are in so many ways.
