Zara Tie Dye Print T-shirt

Here is the newest addition to my closet, the Zara tie dye print t-shirt (more like blouse if you ask me :D)




My poor little camera is trying its hardest to take good pictures and the gloomy weather outside sure isn't helping.

Zara limited edition glasses

Here is one of the things I got yesterday at Zara... these babies are the limited edition glasses in toffee (also available in ivory)

 I'm absolutely in love with the subtle cat-eye model!

Detail of the day


Just got back home from a lovely day out on town with a friend. I'll upload pictures of what I got in the coming days, but in the meantime here is a snap of what I wore today. Black blazer is from Zara (old), grey t-shirt also from Zara and the scarf is by Athena Procopiou from her collection "the enchanted wood".

24-25.04.2012

Apologies for the lack of posting. These past few weeks have been very busy but things are back to normal now and I promise to post more often.
On my way to the gym yesterday, typical crappy overcast weather
 Bought a bagel with cured salmon on my way back home. I don't think I've ever told you this but I'm obsessed with cured salmon, I think I could live on that stuff...
 Not a cloud in the sky today! So nice to have a few sunny days, it feels so much more like spring.
Spent all afternoon lounging in the sun reading British Vogue.

Under the mulberry tree

Oh how I adore the Mulberry Taylor satchel. The bag is available in three different sizes and colors (seen above) for more details visit the Mulberry website. For a closer look at the bag check out this video by the fabulous Tanya Burr.

16.04.2012

Hey everyone! Sorry for not posting in a week. I've been busy with work lately, actually had my first shift today at 6:00 (and that's AM if anyone was wondering). So needless to say I didn't get much sleep last night but I'll be back to regular blogging tomorrow.

outfit of the day... kind of

I had a job interview today and decided to take some pictures on my way back home
 Gasp! She wore jeans to a job interview! Haha it's probably the no. 1 don't when it comes to dressing for a job interview but it turned out just fine since even the interviewer was wearing jeans. The jeans were accompanied by the white silky Zara shirt I just blogged about as well as the navy Zara gathered sleeve blazer I bought a few weeks ago.
The coat that you can see a glimpse of is a quilted coat by Barbour.
 My trusted Zara tote got the important task of holding all of my bits and bobs 
As far as jewelry goes I kept it simple and only wore my favorite MK watch

Zara white silk top

Here's what I got the other day from Zara... not really that exciting cause it's only a white top. Anyway I really like it because it has a very silky feel to it (in other words 100% polyester) so it's a perfect alternative to the everyday cotton t-shirt.
 The top is in a size L which doesn't really bother me that much since it's supposed to fit loosely. Of some reason the Zara stores  here in Helsinki always seem to run out of S and M and then never really restock.
(sorry the photos turned out really grey, no amount of light exposure or brightness adjustment could fix it)

Pastel Perfection

Pastel heels by Din Sko, a great way to incorporate this summers pastel trend in your outfits, especially if you aren't feeling terribly daring. Oh and the best part, they're only 34,90€

Weekend shopping

I went downtown today as I was in desperate need for some Boot Buffer for my Hunter wellies, which I'll do a post on later.
 Stopped by Zara and tried on some lovely summer dresses
Left these two beauties at the store but I did end up getting a white silky t-shirt which I'll post some pictures of later.
Picked up the rice and wheat volumizing shampoo from Kiehl's and got a whole bunch of samples including olive fruit oil conditioner, ultra facial cream and midnight recovery concentrate.
