A couple of days ago I received an email from the lovely Annika of the Frisky.com stating that she had chosen my blog to an article about “Bloggers Whose Style We Envy“. I am very honored to be in this bunch since I’m there with style icons such as Lulu from Everybody is Ugly and some other very fashionable ladies. Thank you so much for featuring me, the Frisky!
Mc jacket mania
Guess what the postman brought today? Well, its black, it has zippers and its made of leather. It’s my very own Mc jacket! No more borrowing from my boyfriend, this baby is all mine. I know I’m a bit late with this trend but the perfect jacket has not come across my path until now. The cool thing about it is that I got it -50% off and actually it was free due to little “winter must haves” story I wrote for the Style Agents. The jacket is made of pig nappa and it feels so wonderful and soft. Cometh rain, cometh fall, I got my Mc jacket to keep me warm!

The combat boots 2008
Last winter I made a huge deal about getting myself a pair of platform booties. This winter my obsession is combat boots; well, in fact the obsession started last year but I had to choose between platforms and combats. Girl can’t have it all at once, right? Anyway, I have been looking for the perfect pair from every single store in my town, and today I came really close to what I want. I’m still debating though, wondering if there is something better around the corner (I’m sure you all know the feeling). I’m quite content with my purchase, and I think these do look great BUT.. there is always the big but…
Dress: H&M Trend
Belt: Suomen paras vyökauppa
Combat boots: Kenkärepo
I would like them to be more like the Ann Dem ones, with a longer leg. I know there is one place in Helsinki which might have something like it but one can never be sure. Also the thing is, that I would like to wear the combat boots to a fashion meeting organized by Tyylitaivas on Saturday (which is the initial reason why I’m going to Helsinki). What to do? Shall I keep these or keep looking? The more I try them on, the more I grow into them…
I also got this cool studded belt a few days back. Originally it was too long but the store customizes and shortens the belts to be suitable for their new owner. What I was looking for was something Lulu from Everybody’s Ugly is wearing. However, I had no chance of going to Zara so this belt had to do. It’s not the same exact thing but I like it a lot anyway!
Soon I’m off to see Everything is Made in China, a truly great Russian indie/shoe gaze/post rock band.
Cherry crush
Remember when I was debating whether or not to get these red shoes? Well the debate is over since it seems that a -10% discount was a valid enough reason for me to go ahead and purchase them, no questions asked. I named them my cherry bon bons because they look so deliciously cherry red that you just wanna eat them up.
Of course, when it stopped raining cats and dogs (and we actually had sun shine for a whole one hour), I had to go test drive them. Aren’t they the prettiest thing?
