The best knitwear in the world

I bought a jumper from Filippa K a decade ago. The knitting is still in a mint condition. The knitting itself is like it's never been used, actually, except that the elbow of it was a little bit broken but I fixed it. It is like a war scar actually. I wore it often, a lot actually. That piece of knitwear has travelled round the world, twice. I lived in it while I had a flu in Mexico (yes, exactly during the swine flu epidemic, but it is another story). I reckon that of all of my clothes that jumper with another fleece jumper from Peak Performance and yellow pair of Havaianas thongs (flip flops, Europeans!) have gone through the most what I've gone through and seen pretty much everything I have seen.

So, I got super-excited when I got an invitation from Filippa K to come to their Helsinki grand opening held last night. I went and had good time. Here is the little purse I got and that dear old jumper of mine.

A little war scar

No fluff. Used for 10 years. Unbelievable! 

How to keep it blond?

I need a hair-do. I need more highlights, badly. It has been two months, again (sigh).

I would LOVE to have a very, a really blond hair, but unfortunately it doest suit me. I have ash-blond highlights which I keep bright by using silver shampoo once a week. Or at least try to. A dry shampoo is a bad hair days savior, but it also suits a blond hair making the roots a bit lighter as well. The best thing about a dry shampoo is that it makes hair look thicker (see here)!

Here are few photos of my hair at its best (?). ;)

I see stars!

The star print was playing a huge role on a catwalk last spring when the fashion fall 2011 collections were on showed. Especially Dolce&Gabbana loved the star-print this year. It looks like Zara is a quick cat when it comes to mmm..  copying the trends from the catwalks of the more exclusive brands. I bought this star t-shirt from Zara in April. See the fashion report I wrote (in Finnish) about the star-prints here. :)

T-shirt from Zara, jewellery from Morocco and Australia, old pants from ?, Ballerinas Pretty Ballerinas ;)

Aren't they pretty?

I just bought my first Pretty Ballerinas! The color and style are classic, so can't go wrong with them, right? They were 70% off and costed ridiculously 55 euros (original price 185 e)! =) Happy!
