Even though I’m a spring girl through and through, I do like the cosy feel autumn brings, especially the chance to snuggle into cosy jumpers that double as a comfort blanket during the day. This very basic Uniqlo one is by far my favourite – it’s a bit slouchy, fully woolen and the magical colour of grey – and I’ve been pairing it with everything in my wardrobe. Jeans are a no-brainer, but finding this second-hand skirt in my closet kind of rung a few…Continue Reading “Jumper Stories”
Although my Instagram might suggest otherwise, I am indeed back from our sunny getaway to Macedonia. Back home in Estonia, dealing with the first snowfall of the year and trying to slid back into my routine. However, as I’m still finishing the baklava I brought back, it feels like our little getaway wasn’t too long ago and seeing myself in summery outfits still seems a bit tangible. So to make all of you cold northerners yearn a bit of warm sunshine, I bring you my…Continue Reading “Holiday Outfits”
Can you even call yourself a blogger if you don’t have a checked blazer to dip back into the nineties and up your Insta game this fall? Nope, didn’t think so. I found mine at Bershka on one of those ~shopping like a man~ sprees, where you’re scanning the shop, focused on finding that one thing you’re after and if you don’t set your sight on something check-printed, then whisk off to the next shop in hopes of better luck. Staying true to my femininity…Continue Reading “Like A Man”
A sign that I’ve been listening to a band too much, is when their lyrics start creeping into my post titles. Case in point – Future Islands, who’s albums are the perfect background to any rainy day and trust me, we’ve had plenty. I’m still quite diligently wearing my embroidered loafers however, even though they’re a bit too chilly and about three times of getting soaked in the rain away from falling apart on me. Luckily they’re a gorgeous match with the falling leaves too,…Continue Reading “Seasons Change”
This summer my wardrobe was more governed by some accidentally perfect, trend-pursuing vintage finds, than impulse fast fashion buys and that’s definitely part of my shopping habit that I’m proud of (or maybe I only spend on home ware these days?). Exhibit not even a, but more like c or d – this silk dress. With the weather turning to the summery side once more, it doesn’t seem too inappropriate to share these lush pictures from Pärnu, the summer capital in Estonia, in the middle…Continue Reading “Indian Summer”
In a post in June I listed a few things I’d hope to do this summer and while the weather hasn’t really benefitted beach days, I’m happy to look back on the past few months and say that I’ve ticked off almost all of the things from my summer bucket list, with an unexpected city break to Warsaw thrown in there too! Fair enough, there’s still some of August left and I don’t want to be ~that person~ declaring the premature arrival of autumn, but…Continue Reading “Cosy Corners of Warsaw”
It might be a bit past its shelf life, but I graduated from university this summer and yet, I haven’t shared one word about my graduation outfit on the blog. Which we all know, is the most important about the whole event, right? It seems to me that as the girls get older and classes higher, the outfits get more minimal. Middle school was a party of tulle and princess dresses, high school was about classier pretend-grown-up dresses and university about classic pieces you would…Continue Reading “Summer In The City”
The window to wear summer dresses in this unfortunate Estonian summer is so very tiny, but with a significant collection of summer dresses in my wardrobe, I’ve found that dressing for the office in the summer pretty much turns out the same as dressing for vacation. Even if it means chilly ankles and my leather jacket on me pretty much all day every day, I don’t have the heart to let my summer dresses wait for sunny weekends while I turn to monochrome office wear….Continue Reading “Not Your Average Office Dress”
Instead of rambling on about the weather or my indecisive shopping habits, I wanted to make today’s post a bit different and list a few of the things that I’ve been loving recently. Or what have just made me a bit happier. What are the little things in your everyday lives? 1. Sweet potato. Seriously, I thought chickpeas were the wonderful filler ingredient to any salad or pasta that I didn’t want to put meat in, but since we’ve moved and I’ve had the long-awaited opportunity…Continue Reading “Oh, Honey!”
From one white dress to another! Let me introduce you to this summer’s sweetheart piece – the midi dress! If you’re a girl living in the summer of 2017 and not yet own a midi dress, then may I suggest you steer away from the slinky minis and outdated maxis and give this look a try? Honestly, I’ve been sartorially as afraid of the midi cuts as I’ve been of lilac and baby blue, thinking they’re just something that don’t suit me, but guess what, once…Continue Reading “Midsummer Midi Dresses”
