I stumbled upon a blog one day and I found those really cool pictures there. The creator of the blog, Manda Tarr goes to an art class and she had to draw some stills of known artists. Her favourite is Wayne Thiebaud and I really liked her copies of them. You can visit her blog at mandatarr.blogspot.com. Enjoy !

DIY Button Ring

When I went to Stockholm I saw a really cool ring in the ship's shop. It was with a rose and pearls, but it cost sooo much and I thought that it is easy to make by myself. I made it yesterday, when I didn't feel sleepy, so I don't have the pics of making the actual rings, but I made one this morning also and here's the tutorial. /Kui ma Stockholmis käisin, nägin laeva poes hästi lahedat sõrmust. See oli roosi ja pärlitega, aga see maksis ülipalju ja ma arvasin et oleks lihtsam seda ise teha. Tegin selle eile õhtul , kui mul und veel polnud ning mul ei ole selle tegemisest pilte, aga ma tegin teisi täna hommikul ja siin on õpetus.


What you need: / Mis sul vaja on :
about 15 small pearls / umbes 15 väikest pärlit
a cool button/ lahe nööp
some rubber thread/natuke kumminiiti
a needle/nõela

1. Put the pearls on the thread, then the button and then again the pearls. / Lüki pärlid niidile, siis nööp ja siis jälle pärlid.










2. When they're all on the thread , put the thread through them once more, this way it is stronger and won't break so easily./ Kui kõik on niidi peal, pane niit neist veelkord läbi, siis jääb sõrmus tugevam ja ei lähe nii kergelt katki.


3.Try it on and tie the ends together./ Proovi sõrme ja seo otsad kokku.
4. Wear it whereever you want to ! /Kanna seda ükskõik kus !
Here's the ring I made yesterday. I like it a lot more:)/ Siin on sõrmus mille ma eile tegin. See meeldib mulle palju rohkem! :)

Alice in Wonderland


Yesterday I went to see Alice in Wonderland.
I liked it, but it was nothing special. The effects, colours and clothes were grate. Very Tim Burton'ish.
It almost starts like the the classic Alice in Wonderland, but in the end it is nothing like the original. It involves monsters, slaying etc.
Luckily it was one film were Johnny Depp didn't kiss someone younger than him. Although he almost did. I think it would have ruined it if Alice and the Hatter had become more than just friends.But I really liked Johnny Depp, as always. I once again agreed that he is a great actor. It is funny that his best roles have been really weird and funky. Like Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka, Captain Jack Sparrow and now the Hatter.
For everyone in Estonia I recommend to see it in English. I saw it in English and I bet it is much much better than in Estonian. Still the original voices.

The Mad Hatter, The Red Queen and Alice.



Eile käisin kinos Alice Imedemaal vaatamas.
See meeldis mulle, aga see ei olnud ka midagi erilist . Efektid, värvid ja kostüümid olid võimsad. Väga Tim Burtoni moodi.
See peaaegu algab nagu klassikaline Alice Imedemaal, aga lõpus pole see originaali lähedanegi. Seal on kaasatud koletised, nende tapmine jne.
Õnneks oli see üks film, kus Johnny Depp ei suudelnud kedagi endast nooremat. Kuigi ta peaaegu tegi seda. Ma arvan,et see oleks filmi veidi ära rikkunud kui Alice ja Kübarameister oleksid olnud midagi enamat kui sõbrad. Aga Johnny Depp meeldis mulle ikkagi väga. Veendusin jälle, et ta on hea näitleja. Naljakas, et kõik ta parimad rollid on olnud imelikud . Nagu Edward Käärkäsi, Willy Wonka ,Kapten Jack Sparrow ja nüüd siis Kübarameister.
Kõikidele eestlastele soovitan seda vaadata inglise keeles. Ma nägin seda inglise keeles ja ma olen kindel et see oli palju parem , kui eesti keeles. Ikkagi originaalhääled.

March 22, 2010

I went to the hairdresser's on Monday. I had my hair cut a little, my ends were sooo broken and dry. And I had my bangs shortened. But overall it still looks the same. Nothing drastical.
But the woman who cut my hair did everything I don't like . She turned the ends inside and gave me a blow-drier look. Now it is better and I quite like it. I bet it will be even better tomorrow.
At first I reminded myself of an old movie star or sth, but I couldn't remind who. I suppose I had seen a picture in some magazine. Unfortunately I can't share a pic of my new haircut to you, but I'll post the one I put in lookbook also. The one for the H&M contest.
Have a happy spring-break!

skirt-thrifted/selfmade , turtleneck-from Latvia, shoes-wildflower, tights-kaubamaja


Käisin esmaspäeval juuksuris. Lasin oma juukseid natuke lõigata, kuna mu juukseotsad olid niii katki ja kuivad. Ja tukka lasin ka lühemaks võtta. Aga üldiselt näeb see ikka samasugune välja, mitte midagi drastilist. Aga see juuksur, kes mu juukseid lõikas tegi kõike mis mulle ei meeldi, et juuksurid teevad. Ta keras juukseotsad sissepoole ja tegi föönisoengu. Nüüd on see parem ja mulle isegi meeldib see. Kindlasti on homme veel parem.
Alguses meenutasin ma endale vana filmistaari või kedagi, aga ma ei suutnud meenutada keda. Ma arvan et olin mõnes ajakirjas pilti näinud. Kahjuks ei saa ma panna pilti oma uuest soengust. Aga ma panen selle, mis ma ka lookbooki H&M'i konkursi jaoks panin.
Head kevadvaheaega !

Up in the Air

March 21, 2010

Some time ago I went to the cinema with my mom to see this film. Be both had quite high hopes, because it had George Clooney, one of my favourite actors and the trailer wasn't bad either.
It is a movie about a guy who fires people, it is his job. He flies across the country and loves it. He doesn't even have a real home, his homes are all the airports. Then a young woman Natalie comes and says that she has developed a system where you can fire people on the Internet. Ryan ( George Clooney) doesn't like the idea and his boss says that he has to take Natalie with him to introduce her the job and the lifestyle. -he doesn't like it because he likes being alone, he has a system for everything and suddenly someone comes and breaks that system.
He teaches Natalie the basics and they even start to get along. Then in one hotel, Ryan meets a woman called Alex who is just like him, travels for living and has a thing for plastic cards. Ryan also has a goal - he wants to get 10 million mile points , this way he gets the elite status .
Ryan and Alex try to match their schedules to meet each other as much as possible. They have lots of fun and Ryan even thinks of having something serious with Alex, although it is totally against his beliefs. Ryan and Alex go together to Ryan's sister's wedding, Ryan starts to socialise with his family and everything is OK.
Then one day he goes to Chicago to see Alex at her home and he finds out that she has a husband and children. On the way there he reaches his 10 million points, but now he doesn't care about what once was the goal of his life. Ryan and Alex end their relationship, he quits his jobs and flies into the sunset.
It wasn't such a good movie that we hoped for, but it still had a deep thought and now thinking back to it, it seems a lot better than when walking out of the movie-theatre. It is not a comedy, but it has its funny parts. It is not a heart-breaker , but it is still kind of sad and makes you think.

Burberry mania

Whenever I see something in the shops with a Burberry print on it, I feel that I need to have it . My friends would say that it's a bit maniacal. But I feel that there is something so classic, timeless and mystical about the Burberry print. I can't get enough of it :)
I have a Burberry scarf that I got from a thrift store for 1EEK and I wear it quite a lot. I also have skirt that I need to make shorter to wear it. Probably the best present for me would be a Burberry plaid trench. I even have a Burberry perfume. The Beat is without a doubt one of the best there have ever been.
And Burberry's collections from the latest fashion weeks have also been great. That's not the classic, but it is still cool. Christopher Bailey has done a really really great job. My fav is definitely the spring 2010 collection. The skirts are great. Love the pastels, the materials and the cuts.

Burberry exclusive for Colette:





Burberry Prorsum Spring 2010


Alati kui ma näen poes midagi Burberry mustriga ,tunnen , et pean selle ära ostma. Mu sõbrad ütleksid, et see on maniakaalne. Aga minu arust on Burberry mustri juures midagi klassikalist , ajatut ja maagilist. Ma ei saa sellest küllalt.
Mul on Burberry sall, mille ma sain kaltsukast 1 krooni eest ja ma kannan seda päris tihti. Mul on veel seelik, mille ma pean lühemaks tegema, et seda kanda. Ilmselt oleks parim kingitus mulle Burberry mustriga trench.Mul on isegi Burberry lõhn. The Beat on ilma kahtluseta üks parimaid lõhnu, mis kunagi on tehtud.
Ja Burberry kollektsioonid viimastelt Moenädalatelt on ka imelised olnud. Need pole klassikalised, aga ikkagi vinged.Christopher Bailey on teinud suurepärast tööd. Mu lemmik on kindlasti kevad 2010 kollektsioon. Seelikud on lahedad. Ma armastan neid pastelseid värve, materiale ja lõikeid.

I fancy Stockholm !

So I went to Stockholm this weekend. I loved it ! It was spring, the sun was shining and it was warm! That's all I need to enjoy my day :) The only thing I hate about going to Stockholm is all the drunk people on the ship. But I escaped to my cabin and had a small spa day, I polished my nails . I love my mint green nail-polish and I wear it almost too often.
Well, as I said, in Stockholm we were greeted by the sun and almost 10 degrees. I totally enjoyed my trench-and-burberry-scarf-look . We went to some shops, my parents aren't the shopping-type really.. I got myself a graduation dress- finally ! It is from Vila, it's really girly and cute and it is the best of the four options I had. I even know what shoes I want, I just hope that they still sell those shoes. I saw them in Suurtüki about a year ago, or so :) I also got a white shirt from H&M, because all of my white shirts are kind of gray already. I saw a cool gray skirt, but my mom said that she's not going to buy it , but I'll get it anyway( few weeks ago I saw a gray skirt in Monton, maybe I'll get it for my b-day !! ) . I also got two postcards, they're extremely cheap in Stockhom. I'm already sending on to USA today :)
After the shopping we had a walk in the old town, which is extremely beautiful. Then we went to the King's Castle where we saw an exhibition about the armoury and clothes of the royalties. It reminded me of the Tower in London. I'll post a pic of me in Stocholm tomorrow, because I still have to use my fathers computer. But I like it, cuz it's a laptop :)
Then we went to have lunch at a place called K15. We went there the last time and it was still good. After that we had a nice long walk in springy Stockholm back to the harbour.
From the ship I got a new perfume. I'm currently using Burberry The Beat, which I really really love, but there was a great offer and I also got a Lanvin Jeanne as kind of a birthday present for me .
All in all I really love Stockholm. It has great architecture, I think it is because it is a kingdom, all kingdoms have great architecture( London !! ) , it was spring and all the people there are friendly, smiling and they dress really good, even the old people are stylish. Something the Estonians should learn from the Swedish- how to dress well. :)
And with that thought I'd end my post :)
Stockolm. The best picture I could find in Google. It really is one of my favourite cities after London and NY.
My graduation dress from Vila, only mine is beige.It has little roses on the upper part. I think that I'm going to wear it with pearl jewellery and a nice headband.
Nii, käisin sel nädalavahetusel Stocholm. Nautisin seda väga. Seal oli kevad , päike paistis ja soe oli. See on kõik mida mul on vaja, et päeva nautida! :) Ainus asi mida ma Stocholmis käimise juures vihkan on see,et laeval on väga palju purjus inimesi. Aga ma põgenesin oma kajutisse ja tegin väikese spa-päeva, lakkisin küüsi :) Ma armastan oma mündirohelist küünelakki ja ma kannan seda peaaegu liiga tihti.
Nagu ma ütlesin tervitas Stockolmis meid päike ja peaaegu 10 kraadi.Ma nautisin oma trench-ja-burberry-sall-looki väga . See sobis selle kevadise ilmaga superhästi. Käisime mõnedes poodides, kuna mu vanemad pole väga poodleja-tüüpi. Ma sain endale lõpuks lõpukleidi. See on Vilast (vt pilti üleval pool), ainult et minu oma on beez. See on hullult nunnu ja tütarlapselik, seal ülemise osa peal on väikesed roosid. Ning see kleit on parim nendest neljast variandist mis mul olid. Ma tahaksin seda kanda pärlehetega ja ilusa peavõruga. Ma isegi tean milliseid kingi ma tahan. Muidugi kui neid veel müüakse. Nägin neid umbes aasta tagasi Suurtükis. Ma sain veel H&M-st valge pluusi, kuna kõik minu valged pluusid on halliks muutunud. Nägin hästi lahedat halli seelikut ka, aga mu ema ütles et ta ei osta seda mulle, aga et ma saan selle ikkagi(paar nädalat tagasi nägin Montonis lahedat halli seelikut, äkki ma saan selle endale sünnipäevaks!!). Ma sain veel kaks postkaarti, mis on Stockholmis supersoodsad. Ühe nendest saadan täna juba USA-sse ära.
Pärast ostlemist jalutasime vanalinnas, mis on häästi ilus. Siis läksime kuningalossi, kus oli näitus kuninglikust relvastusest ja riietusest. See meenutas mulle veidi Londoni Towerit. Homme postitan pildi endast ka, kuna ma pean ikka veel oma isa arvutit kasutama. Aga mulle meeldib see, kuna see on läpakas :)
Siis käisime söömas kohas nimega K15. Käisime seal eelmisel korral ka ja see oli ikka hea . Peale seda oli tore pikk jalutuskäik kevadises Stockholmis tagasi sadamasse.
Laevast sain endale uue lõhna. Praegu kasutan Burberry The Beat'i see meeldib mulle niii väga, aga laeval oli hea pakkumine ja sain endale veel Lanvini Jeanne'i. See on nagu sünnipäevakink või nii.
Kokkuvõtteks mulle väga meeldib Stockholm. Seal on ilus arhitektuur, ma arvan et see on selle pärast et see on kuningriik. Kõigis kuningriikides on ilus arhitektuur( London!!). Seal oli kevad ja kõik inimesed olid väga sõbralikud, naeratasid kogu aeg ja olid väga hästi riides, isegi vanad inimesed olid stiilsed. See on miski, mida eestlased peaksid rootslastelt õppima- kuidas hästi riietuda.
Selle mõttega lõpetaksin oma sissekande. :)

something blue

March 16, 2010

Hey, thought that I'd do a really really quick post. I don't have my computer right now and I have to use my father's .. I took some pictures on Monday and getting them was really a mess.
I'm wearing a blue H&M skirt, the top's from Vero Moda and the shoes I got as a birthday present last year. I have my phone, because I tried to enter this look to a lookbook.nu contest that requires two blue items, but the photo was too skinny. Luckily I had one other outfit too :)
Let's hope I win an H&M gift card for my look.( I'll post it some time :) )


Hei! Mõtlesin et teeksin ühe väga väga kiire sissekande. Mul ei ole oma arvutit praegu ja ma pean oma isa oma kasutama. Tegin esmaspäeval mõned pildid ja nende saamine oli tõeline tohuvapohu.
Mul on seljas sinine H&M'i seelik, pluus on Vero Modast ja kingad sain ma eelmisel aastal sünnipäevaks. Mukl on käes mu telefon, kuna ma üritasin selle pildiga osaleda ühel lookbook'i konkursil,kus on vaja et pildil oleks kaks sinist asja , aga pilt oli liiga kitsas. Õnneks oli mul teine komplekt ka varuks.
Loodame et ma võidan H&M'i kinkekaardi oma look'i eest. ( Ma postitan selle kunagi :) )

London Fashion Week

March 14, 2010

I know, I'm late since LFW ended on Febuary 24th, but I've been busy. And even Paris Fashion week ended, but soon it is spring break and I can do all the posts I want !
but, London Fashion Week. It definetely had less top names than NYFW, but it still had some really great collections and some cool outfits. Here's my selection:
Bora Aksu, a big favourite of mine, I loved the pastels
Jenny Packham, I liked it, because it had a small resemblance to Estonian national clothes, colourful and embroided
Mulberry
Mary Katrantzou
PPQ
Body Amr
Sass and Bide
And the last two are from Erdem, my favourite collection from LFW. It had lace, a lot of colours and ruffles.

Ma tean, ma olen hiljaks jäänud, kuna Londoni Moenädal lõppes juba 24.veebruaril, aga mul on kogu aeg nii kiire olnud. Isegi Pariisi Moenädal on juba lõppenud, aga varsti on kevadvaheaeg ja siis mul on aega teha kõik sissekanded, mis ma tahan.
Aga LFW. Seal oli kindlalt vähem suuri nimesid kui New Yorgis, aga seal oli ikkagi palju tõeliselt häid kollektsioone ja lahedaid komplekte.
