How are things on the west coast? I hear you're moving real fine

Currently I am on a search for perfect maxi dress! Cause my 20th birthday is coming up next month and I am in a desperate need to find a nice dress party. Unfortunately I had a quick look at the shops on Monday and I couldn´t find anything! Anyways nothing that special happening my life just the same old studying,catching up with friends and so on. But after the uni entrance exam I am sure things will get much more interesting! I am already very excited about the family trip to Rome which will be happening in the end of june! Yay:)

Hope you all had a fantastic day!

The words are written in the dust When I'm shaking my hips Look for the swing The words are written in the air

I found/heard Lykke Li´s song Little Bit last summer and ever since I´ve adored her sound.
Seems like everyone else have discovered her too since the past year. Now she is touring all around the world and she is famous of her unique music/performance and her clothing. This years she won the Elle Sweden´s award of Best Dressed Woman.
So a lot has changed for her! A year ago even most of the Swedish people didn´t know about her. ( at least my swedish friends didn´t when I told them who were my favourite swedish bands/artists)

staring at the sun oh my own voice cannot save me now standing in the sea

How does it feel How does it feel To be without a home Like a complete unknown Like a rolling stone?

Today was a extremely nice day! +18,5 degrees was the temperature in our yard!!! I can´t believe that. Therfore I decieded to take a day off from my studies and enjoy of this wonderful day. So this is what I did today:

Today I spent the most amazing sunny day with my little sister. We had the best time while we were sitting in the sun,eating Ben&Jerries ice cream and talking.
Here she is with our lovely dog Eddie.




Isn´t she the cutest?


Yummy! Can you believe that half an hour after this photo was taken our family dog almost died!! Our dog Eddie was eating this pig nose thing and he almost chocke cause he swallowed a too large piece of it and it got stuck in his throught. So me and my little sister panicked because he started to breath really heavily. So quess what I had to do? I had to put my fingers in his throught and pull that slimy piece of pigs nose out of there. Sound nice huh?

Anyways after all the hard and exhausting lifesaving I met my friend Senni in Helsinki( also known as my travel buddy). We wen´t to Terrace to sit and talk while enjoying couple of drinks. We all ready started plan our feature trips. We are slowly going to start to save for our future trip to Aussi/New Zealand/Fidgi. This long trip will be happening in couple of years. But the saving is gonna start really soon! Europe is gonna be something that we are definitely gonna explore in between. After all that day dreaming and catching up we wen´t to movies. We saw this great film called The Boat that Rocked (Merirosvoradio). It's about a band of rogue DJs that captivated Britain, playing the music that defined a generation ( 60´s) and standing up to a government that, incomprehensibly, preferred jazz. I am making another post of this movie cause it was so great and also I wanna write about my love towards 60´s fantastic music.

Hope you all had a great day too

Around the world

I received a nice challenge from Leoona. So I had to choose 5 places that I would like to visit.So here are the 5 amazing places in the world that I would like to visit one day.( The sooner the better:D )

I gotta say it wasn´t too easy to pick these places because I pretty much wanna explore the whole wide world!
I´ve gotten the chance to visit in heaps of wonderful places. So far I´ve been in these countries US ( Hawaii,LA,NY and Florida), Scotland,Sweden.Latvia,Portugal,Spain,Mauritius,Thailand ( heaps of times), France ( Paris),Denmark,Dominican Republic,Australia ( Sydney) and I lived in New Zealand for a year.

Anyways here are some countries I´ve dreamed of visiting for so long....

5. Japan


I´ve been faschinated by Japan for such a long time and I really wanna explore this country one day!

4. Canada




I am sure that Canada would have lot to offer me. I heard of lot of good stuff about this country while I traveled in New Zealand. I am sure the nature in this country is breath taking!


3. Australia






Well I´ve been in Sydney but I really wanna see rest of this country too. Tasmania,Great Barrier and so on are definitely on my list!


2. Africa


Since a little girl I wanted to visit here ! Also my host family were originally from there so after hearing about all the great stories I´ve been wanting to go there even more. Hopefully one day I will get to go there:)


1. New Zealand







Yeah I know I kind of have already been there but hey that doesn´t change the fact that I wanna go there again. To be honest I would wan´t to move there and that has been the plan ever since I left the place....

On which you find you love it when you twitch You feel that itch in you pettycoat Your pretty pretty pettycoat

Couple of months ago I made a post of this young lady saying that she is finally back and now I am proudly announcing that Mischa Barton is my style icon once again. Well look at these outfits!
They are all fantastic. Specially those black studded high heels and that gorgeous blazer.
I am definitely gonna go thrift shopping next week.
But now I am gonna go and meet a friend.
Hope you all had a great day

I`ve been thinking I´ve been looking at you Sideways

To me music and fashion goes side by side and for a while ( actually for several years) I´ve really been into the alternative&punk,folk and electronic. For the past couple of years I´ve found that I feel most comfortable in a bit more rocker chic/ bohemian stuff! Ofcourse I am also influenced by fashion but I am just saying that I am not that kind of person who wears something just because it´s in fashion. I could never imagine wearing anything that I would not feel that its me. So everytime I buy something it has to "yell my name"! Otherwise I simply won´t buy it:)You know what I mean?
Anyways my ultimate favourite store is Urban Outfitters! I just absolutely adore it:) There is only three store in this whole wild world that I could spend hours in and this is definitely one of them. ( The two other ones are record shop Stupido and Saks Fift Avenue)

Hope you all had a great day! Cause I definitely had one myself:)

Currently listening to:Sideways- Let´s Go Sailing

When you hear the beat You wanna pat your feet And you've got to move cause It's really such a groove

It seems like spring has finally arrived to Finland! At last I can wear something else than usual jeans,boots,camise look. Now finally time to get all my favorite clothes into use:) I can´t wait!
Is it weird that I have more summer clothes than winter? and in Finland the weather is always zero degrees or even colder ( at least 70 % of the year).

So now its time to start bribe my little sisters so that I could get more outfit pictures posted.

Currently listening to: Marlena Shaw-California Soul

Stepping a stone and I'm all gone Give me the tone And i'm all gone

I absolutely love music festivals! I just wish that I had enough money so I could travel all around the world to check out some of the best ones. For example last weekend Coachella music festival was held in California. I wish I had been in there! But here are some pictures of people that were there!
