Baby it's cold outside

HI, I haven't been blogging for a few days and decided to do a quick update. It's freezing here in Finland and today was honestly one of the worst days this winter, even if it was just 6ºF it felt more like -10ºF since it was so windy.
I was supposed to have philosophy in the morning but it got canceled due to a blackout, some construction workers accidentally cut off 3 major power lines :D and after that I didn't have any classes until 12.20 so it wasn't much of a school day. Anyways testweek starts tomorrow so I should get back to studying.

rings

Why isn't there a forever21 in Finland??? I know that you can order online, but shipping/delivery is pretty expensive and it would take an eternity for the stuff to make it through customs since it would be coming from outside the EU. Anyways here are a few rings I really like, all of them of course from forever21.

Another thing I want

I absolutely love these boots and I want them so badly only problem is that I can't find them anywhere. They are by Sam Edelman and came out a few years ago, they sold out really fast and since so many people still wanted them they made more. They were available again at the end of last year and are still available at urbanoutfitters.com and retail for $350. I was really disappointed when I realized that they weren't available at urbanoutfitters.co.uk (I need to change the region if I want to order something to Finland). So if anybody knows where you can buy the boots in Finland, PLEASE tell me.

sugar rush

Here are a few pictures from the ASOS.com black collection which will come out at the end of april. The collection includes lots of feathers, ruffles and pastel colors. I absolutely love some of the dresses super delicate and feminine.

here and there

I went to the H&M store in Helsinki a few days ago and was surprised to see that there still were so many things left from the Jimmy Choo collection which came out November 14th 2009. Most shoes and all the jewelry was gone but there were many things left (mostly clothing). I remember back in November 2007 when Roberto Cavalli launched his collection for H&M and the stuff sold out in just a few days, the same thing happened with the Comme de Garçons and Matthew Williamson collections, there was nothing left.
So it's pretty surprising that there still are so many things left, even at the H&M online shop.

beauties

I found some amazing looking shoes from DinSko. They are all from the 2010 spring collection and some of them are already in stores. I really love the black wedges and I actually bought the heels in the second picture just last week.

Getting started

Hi,
So this blog isn't much right now sense I'm just getting started and it probably will take some time before I'll figure everything out. Anyways I'm a 16 year old girl living in Finland. I'm very passionate about fashion and besides going to senior high school I devote a large part of my time to things like scanning through fashion magazines, shopping and searching the web for the latest style news. I hope you'll like the blog and I'm happy to answer any questions.
