Out In a Denim Jacket On My BB’s B-Day
Wearing my old Zara stone wash denim jacket for the first time this spring!
Ah, the sun is up and out again! Yesterday was such a pretty, sunny day here in Helsinki. I decided to take what felt like a risk and leave home in a denim jacket, but Sunday's +15C felt like summer and my knit and denim jacket combo was almost too warm. Hey, a denim jacket! All you Finnish people know that means spring-summer for us.
More than that, yesterday was my B's birthday so we decided to go have lunch downtown. Awwh how good it felt to walk out in the sun with my baby in town ♥ B wanted to spend the day as laid-back as possible so we just went to get some casual but always so neat pasta at VaPiano.

After our bowl of pasta we headed back home, need I mention for some strawberries & cream cheesecake I'd baked myself (proud little keikk). It was a little bit too sweet though.
Last year during this time of the year me and B had just moved in and started to settle in on our shared apartment. After this past year I am honestly extremely happy to be celebrating another anniversary with him, this upcoming weekend actually. I also can not wait for us to move in together again and be able to live every day together, though that may have to wait for now.
My Birthday-B not so excited for having to wait for me to get my camera ready again ❤
But that was Sunday and today it's unmistakably Monday! I started work at 6AM today and already feel like I could doze off anytime. But more thesis work is yet to be done! Also, I did have those plans on going to gym. Hmm. We will see about those.
Have a great week everyone!
Brunch At The Book Store, In That Jumper Again
At the Akademic Book Shop of the Stockmann dept.store in that knit jumper from previous post
Right now this very same book store is squirming with bargain hunters because of the biggest department store sales in town called the "crazy days", but on Saturday morning it was all peaceful. As if one post on this new jumper knit of mine wasn't enough, here's a few more outfit photos. The studded biker style boots are old Spirit Store ones, everything else but the knit is Zara. What is it with my closet and Zara these days?!
That was the Saturday I ended up skipping gym for a belated breakfast-out with my parents.
With a rare fruits, croissant & brie and a cappuccino for breakfast, how's that~
This is one of those lifestyle posts that is meant to mislead you to thinking the blogger lives a superbly luxurious and fancy life. No I mean, what do you mean a student such as myself doesn't get a nice brunch with some brie and freshly squeezed orange juice for breakfast every morning? Those lovely rare little luxuries in life indeed. I've got a feeling I'm getting a real brunch phase on and that's no good for my budget. Luckily this one was on ma momma, ha.
Just a little post before the weekend, which will hopefully include some hair dyeing and cake baking for me, for what I'll manage to get done on a work weekend. You enjoy yours!
In Hopes of Seeing a Less Gray Tomorrow
Greetings from the somewhat gray but potentially hopeful for spring Helsinki. Had a great brunch today with my dear old friend Iida, stuffed my tummy so full it was full at 7PM still and talked about some plans for the future for one. It's funny how with some people, you'll just always stay somewhat the same with and will always be able to catch up with and connect with no matter how long it's been. What a cheer-up for one's week!
That much unrelated to this outfit post, I wore this today;
It's a good thing you are reading my blog because, hey, otherwise you might not know how the weather in southern Finland was like every week if it wasn't for my weekly updates on our current weather here! Well, mother nature still hasn't decided whether it's spring or winter here (with snowy rain last night and such) so you can't yet trust in T's and shorts.
I've been going for comfy casual loose knits like this one from Carlings. I see girls walk past in denim jackets but let me tell you, the wind is freezing enough to make me keep my wool coat and boots on still! But I'm thinking that knit will work well in the summer too with some shorts and tanks, don't you think?

I also got my hair cut last week, chopped some 10-15 cm off the dry ends, but haven't yet decided what color to go for this spring. So my hair is in desperate need of some hair dye. Just saying, in case those 12 different shades in my hair didn't cantch somebody's attention yet. Heh heh. Also, how do I style this new hair, is a mystery.
Alright, this blog post was my getaway from my thesis, better get back to that now. Cheers ♥
Signs Of Spring; First Brights Of the Season
Weekend again! What is it with me, always blogging first when the weekend comes? Yet another Uni assignment I've had due? Undoubtedly yes. But my Uni half-semester finals & reports are done now, the weekend's here and I've got a morning BodyPump class behind me, so it's time to relax. I want to share my outfit photos from the other day, a very sunny one.
Signs of spring? Sunnies and the first new splash of color for spring! Been thinking about getting a Cambridge Satchel Co. satchel but then I found this perfectly spring colored pastel yellow one at H&M. If I come to use this bag a lot I might go and order a Cambridge Co version.
These were taken the other day when I was lunching with my girl E on a super pretty spring day. I've felt so busy with school and work (although really it's probably just my lack of time management skills) so little breaks lunching out & getting coffee with dears have been my luxury ♥
Yup, spring time! I've passed my half-a-semester long classes so I'll now be starting my thesis work for real. Which, my friends, is blog related have I not mentioned it yet. And I am so excited to start working on it and also blogging more with spring! What is everyone else excited about this spring?
Enjoy the well-deserved weekend y'all! I'll be back sooner than you'll know. Cheers!
