Yesterday part 2.

Saturday evening we went with friends to Funky Elephant Festival in Tavastia. There were performing among others Ceebrolistics (FIN), Mark-De Clive-Lowe feat. Bembe Segue & Vanessa Freeman (UK), Happy-Go-Lucky (FIN), Kings Of Nippon (FIN) and Alice Russell Band (UK). I danced my heart out!

Yesterday part. 1

Yesterday after work we wanted with Mr. R. to go for a ice-cream in Kruunuhaka but all the ice-cream shops were closed! How stupid. Then we just sitted for a while in a park by the sea enjoying the sun and the nature.

Picnic After Work

Whuh! Today was a super busy day at work and I was starving after finishing at the shop. I met with Mr. R. and we had a romantic Hesburger picnic at Tokoinranta. The weather was be-au-tiful!

I want to go sip some wine in this boat some beautiful summer evening. I hope they have some live music there too!

Sweet and Innocent

I've seen so many pictures with ah-so-cute-frills that I've started to fall into them too. I think a bit of frill combined with either some really rockish clothes or simple outfit work great together. Rough and sweet, cold and warm, decorative and simple. Just the way I like it.

Today I found one smaller bag with a big rose decoration that I saw a friend carrying the other day. But mine is in another colour (black of course..). I love it! Will show you pictures later. Thanks Britt!

World Village Festival 09

Here's some pictures from last weekend's World Village Festival. Direct translation would be World Visiting = Maailma Kylässä and it describes quite well what the festival is all about: introducing different cultures from all around the world. The festival is fun and first of all, FREE!


















































































Capoeira group showing their skills. I want to learn to do this someday!

Just to Make You Laugh

Inspired by the last post I had to share this one with you guys. Watch also the original answer by Miss Teen South Carolina!

Atshuuh!

It's the Swine Flu - be scared and panic now!

If you're gonna walk in the streets of Finland with a mask, please use at least these by Irina Blok.

Personally I believe (*in Miss Teen South Carolina -way) that all this talk about swine flu is also a way to create fear and make people scared and a bit paranoid. And what is fear good for? For control. There was in the news that some pharmacies here in Helsinki had sold out all their masks - give me a break! Let's panic when there really is reason to it.

Hello Gorgeous!
