At Work Again

I'm back at work!? How did that happen and where did my vacation go? Luckily I'm headed to Turkey with my friends in few weeks. 

Today the first thing on my list was to have breakfast while enjoying Ikea's new collection – not complaining. I'll tell more about that a bit later. 

It's starting to look like autumn here in Helsinki and today I wore my favourite winterautumnit'ssocoldboots for the first time. Luckily didn't need that jacket too long, days are still quite warm. <3

Finland is great for weather – during winter time we can have minus 30 degrees, but summers are really warm as well.

Getting Murdered for a Wedding Bouquet

My sister is getting married in a week and guess who is making her wedding bouquet?

O'ou.

Which one of these do you think is the best?

My personal favourites are numbers 2., 4. and 11. The number twelve is probably the easiest one and if I put some extras in it I think it would be really nice...

I made my own bouquet a year ago and it looked perfect for me. I had only couple of peonies and some hydrangeas. 

How is it possible that it's been a year already? Pictures: Tuukka Ervasti

What kind of flowers did you have on your special day and did anyone got murdered for messing it up?

The Last Flowers of Summer

Do you know the feeling you have before autumn comes? You start waiting for the school to start.

Bag: Michael Kors

Shoes and top: H&M

Skirt: Zara

Jewelry: Pieces

Lace jacket: Vila

I had that problem today, even though I still have about 2 weeks holiday ahead. But when I bought these shiny yellow flowers from the market, it started to feel like summer again.

Waterfall Braid Tutorial

Waterfall braid has been one of my absolut favourite hairstyles this summer, cause it's careless but still stylish. 

Waterfall is made almost the same way as the french braid, so if you know how to make a french one, you'll definitely learn this as well. It's still a bit difficult to do that to my own hair, but for others it's a piece of cake. <3

By the way, if your hair is really slippery as mine is, I recommend that you put on some hair powder etc. 

By the way those photos are from my parents garden – it's such a paradise during summer time!

Hope you find MRS.L inspirational!

Summer in Finland

We've been driving through Finland meeting friends and relatives. What have you guys been up to?

We're on our summer holiday now and just came home from almost two weeks journey. Guess what we have been doing?

Well, driving, driving and driving...

Enjoyed finnish sauna, which is always a good idea <3. 

We've hunted our own dinner. 

And made some new friends. 

We've wondered wonders of life...

...and had a good time with the best people. 

Oh and we met Batman! Apparently he lives in Oulu, Finland! 

Batman without his mask on!

We've also been planning the wedding of these two lovebirds. My sister and her boyfriend are getting married in two weeks, jeij!

How's your summer been?
