Ciao-Ciao Italy! Soon.

I will be heading to Tuscany for a wedding on Saturday morning and soon I will be lying under the Italian sun:). It is supposed to be 27 degrees warm. Oh yes!

To get in the mood I have collected all things Italian. Pictures from Mario Testino, Italian Vogue etc. And of course some Italo Disco from Chromatics! By the way I saw them live this August in Flow Festival and I must say they were just amazing!

Wow what a dress!!! I also love the colour. This is from Gucci Spring Summer 2013 collection.

Picture is from The Sartorialist.

Little red dress for a wedding to come.


Saturday shopping part 2. I also found this cute red silk H&M by Lanvin (2011 collaboration) dress from Kaivarin Kanuuna today. Unused with the labels still on it and less then one third of the original price:). I will be wearing this for a wedding next week!

Kaivarin Kanuuna is a great place to make bargains! Probably my favorite at the moment. If you have the patience to go thru the racks and tables you can find really good second hand stuff with reasonable prices. For instance I found two pairs of barely used Acne pumps there for 40 euros but unfortunately the size was too one too small.

Don´t you just love the thrill of going to a good second hand store or flea market where you have the possibility to find pretty much anything! Aah, I do!

Ps. I know I am breaking the wedding dress code rules a bit here as you are not supposed to go to a finnish wedding wearing a red dress but as the wedding is in Tuscany the finnish rules do not apply right?;)

Saturday Shopping.



I did some shopping today.  I bought a new hat from Indian Summer, winter boots from Tommy Hilfiger, waxed rain coat for my dog from Barbour and 1kg of apples from the market (not all in the picture;)). Welcome autumn-winter! 

I like Indian Summer the place where I bougt the hat from. It is a nice little vintage store with good prices. I especially like what they have for men. 

Here is a link to their web page and by the way they have also a web store. Worth the visit if you like vintage!

Bat For Lashes - Rest Your Head


Efterklang - Apples


Listen to Efterklang´s song "Apples" on Soundcloud. Gloomy but good.


Zigzag Floor Pouf



I just love these West Elm´s ZigZag Floor Poufs. I´m thinking of getting one and I know who would also appreciate one of these;). My little Frenchie. I can see her already lounging on one;).

Shop away at West Elm:

Ok. What sucks is that with all the taxes and shipping costs this pouf becomes ridiculously expensive so it´s a no.

Deptford Goth - Life After Defo


Deptford Goth´s new single Life After Defo is gripping! I liked it instantly. The video and song work beautifully together. Minimalisticly beautiful and still so full of feeling.

Teengirl Fantasy - Tracer


Teengirl Fantasy´s "Tracer" is a bit more "mature" and ambitious album compared to their debut "7AM". I liked "7AM"  but I find that "Tracer" has more levels to it.

Listen to album on 3voor12:
