Marimekko

I'm never been a fan of Finnish Marimekko clothes, but now something has changed...Maybe it's because nowadays I'm more color and print girl. My color and print cravings might have something to do with approaching summer,but nevertheless, neutral clothes feel so boring now...

And I was uber excited about Marimekko's co-op collection with Banana Republic. Unfortunately they've sold out almost every piece, this collection was a hit. Well, there are still plenty of nice clothes available at actual Marimekko store, like these <3

Marimekko Rona skirt (pic from www.marimekko.fi)
Marimekko Studio shirt (pic from www.marimekko.fi)
Marimekko Steela dress (pic from www.marimekko.fi)







































To be perfectly honest, Marimekko is doing great job with these bold patterns but sometimes struggles a lot with its color choices and the proportions of the clothes...No with all the clothes, but some pieces are still way too weird. Maybe it is due heritage or something, but Marimekko clothes would be a huge hit if only the company would use more commercial sense in its designs. That said (with love), I am still going to be a "Mari-girl"this summer :)

What do you guys think of Marimekko clothes?

Bag cravings, Proenza Schouler PS1 and Chloé Marcie

Bag cravings, Proenza Schouler PS1 and Chloé Marcie

I'm in serious bag fever. Dangerous disease, probably not going to kill you, but medicine (i.e. THE BAG) takes all your money. I would like to have a neutral color bag and this smoky grey is really tempting. But is it too boring? Other options would be beige and natural white.

Then another first world problem, big or small? Proenza Schouler's PS1 in medium size would be optimal for everyday use, for work, for leisure etc. As would Chloé Marcie bag in medium size. Then again, Chloé Marcie Small Shoulder Bag would be sooooo cute... Too hard!

Look of the day, loving blue and red heels

I love blue. It is just my favourite color and I could wear it in all shades. Today I wanted to pair my FCUK blouse with my favourite dark denim jeans, and my new red heels <3. I have to say that I DO own other jeans as well, but I tend to wear only 1 or 2 for certain time. When I get bored, I switch. Or even wear a skirt :D! Do you think the look is boring with so much blue?







I was wearing:
Jeans: H&M (I promise to have some other pants next time :D)
Blouse: FCUK
Shoes: Carma
Belt: Massimo Dutti
Watch: Michael Kors
Jewellery: Banana Republic

Look of the day, beige knit, dark skinny jeans and leopard clutch

First of all, sorry for the horrible lighting in the pics. It is getting harder and harder to get proper light inside this time of the year in Finland...And it it getting worse. Maybe I should invest in extra lighting or smthng to get better pictures. Try to hang on kids, there will be some improvements!

This outfit has been my favourite this autumn. A beige warm knit, dark skinny jeans, leo clutch and black heels, with some gold shade jewellery. Sooo simple, but still kinda classy, at least to my eyes. What do you think?








I was wearing:
Knit: KappAhl (I know, I'm shocked! Have not bought anything from KappAhl in years, but never say never...)
Jeans: H&M
Leather jacket: Oakwood
Leo clutch: Accessorize
Shoes: Bronx (old)
Belt: Massimo Dutti
Watch: Michael Kors
Jewellery: Banana Republic

Look of the day, stripes and navy blue

I'm totally in love with my Filippa K knit, it goes practically with everything. It is sleek, super soft and warm. I bought mine in June, and the model is so popular that is has remained in Filippa K Autumn Collection. Or something like that :) Nevertheless, you can still buy yours (and I warmly recommend you to do so - you won't regret!).

For example, you can buy your Filippa K knit from Zalando (surprise surprise ;D).





Jeans: H&M
Jacket: Gant
Knit: Filippa K
Belt: Massimo Dutti
Shoes: Vagabond
Necklace: Banana Republic
Watch: Michael Kors
Bag: Mulberry Bayswater
Scarf: Gant

On sale: Louis Vuitton Monogram Shawl

I'm selling my LV Monogram Shawl. It's 2 yrs old and it is in good shape. Reason for selling? Just not using it anymore, and the shawl deserves a better owner, one who wants to carry it with proud everywhere :)!

Here is the link to Huuto.net (in Finnish).
