Jazz it up for fashion week

November 02, 2014

I've been over my head in schoolwork lately, crossing things off my to-do list one by one and blogging has taken a backseat. Now I decided to take a break from all the analysing and reading and reward myself with blogging. Not chocolate, tea or a walk, but blogging!
I'm starting with my fashion week outfits! This is from day two and probably my favourite one. I adore this hyper warm and soft sweater from Lindex and knew that I can glam it up somehow for fashion week. It seems that a short (maybe even too short, oops!) skirt, a statement-y necklace and my new Aldo heels did the trick. 
During fashion week, Anete "the loveliest person on Earth" Palmik took my photos and I can't thank her enough. Go check out her page [here] and see for yourself what a wizard she is behind the camera. 

Olen viimasel ajal ülepeakaela koolitöösse uppunud ja ükshaaval igasuguseid referaate-analüüse teinud ja blogimiseks pole üldse aega olnud. Nüüd mõtlesin, et teen väikese pausi oma analüüsimisest ja premeerin end blogimisega. Just nii, mitte šokolaadi, tee või jalutuskäigu, aga blogimisega!
Alustan oma moenädala riietustega! See on teise päeva komplekt ja ilmselt mu lemmik. Mulle nii meeldib see imepehme ja soe kõrge kraega Lindexi kampsun ja teadsin, et saan selle kuidagi veidi glämmimaks ja moenädalale sobilikumaks teha. Tundub, et lühike seelik (Võib-olla isegi liiga lühike? Mu isa küsis mind nähes irooniliselt, kas mul jäi kangast puudu...), silmatorkav kaelakee ja mu uued Aldo kontsakingad vist täitsid oma ülesannet.
Kogu moenädala jooksul pildistas mu riietusi üles Anete "maailma kõige armsam inimene" Palmik ja mul ei jätku tänusõnu. Minge visake pilk peale ta Facebooki lehele [siin] ja vaadake ise, milline võlur ta kaamera taga on.

For the foxes

For the Foxes - Running Back To You

One of the best things of being back at home for a few days, besides the family and the food of course, is that I can borrow clothes form my sister and mom. I used to do it quite a lot, when I was still living at home, but now, when my own wardrobe doesn't provide that much excitement, I'm still stuck with it. Today my little sis let me wear her cute fox sweater, which I've been jealous of for so long! It's also so soft and warm, so when we go ice-skating later today, it'll be the perfect layer to keep me warm. 
Next week, I'm going to Dublin with my two best friends, kind of to celebrate the end of our first semester at university and do everything touristy, so if you have any good tips about sightseeing/eating/everything to do in Dublin, I'm all ears!

Olen umbes nädala kodus ja lisaks perekonna nägemisele ja heale söögile on suureks boonuseks ka see, et saan õe ja ema riideid laenata. Kui kodus elasin, tegin seda päris tihti, aga nüüd, kui minu riidekapp ei suuda piisavalt põnevust pakkuda, pean sellega ikka leppima. Täna lubas väike õde mul enda kadedusttekitavalt armsat rebasega kampsunit kanda. See on nii mõnusalt pehme ja soe ka, et kui me õhtupoole perega uisutama läheme, on mul sellega kindlasti soe.
Järgmisel nädalal lähen oma parimate sõpsidega Dublinisse reisile, omamoodi nagu esimese semestri lõppu tähistama. Plaanime olla nii suured turistid, kui võimalik, seega, kui teil on mingeid vihjeid või ettepanekuid selle kohta, kus käia, mida teha või kus süüa, siis olen üks suur kõrv!

The Killers- Dustland Fairytale

I am probably the pickiest person when it comes to jeans and it is incredibly difficult for a pair to meet my standards, so when I tried these on at the shop, I nearly didn't hesitate buying them.  15 euros? Perfect fit? Cropped at the ankle? I've been trying not to wear them ever single day, but it's difficult when a pair of jeans is so comfortable that I could sleep in them. (And I have actually slept in them.) I also don't mind the little battle wound on the knee, which they got, when I fell on my bike a few weeks ago. The slight tear only adds a bit of rebel to this fantastic pair, no?
A few days ago Evamaria from Lost in the Wardrobe showed me around the best thrift stores in Tartu and this was just the kind of cosy outfit you wear to go shopping. Or for anything really, as I've proven these days. I wear this sweater-jeans combo at least twice a week with a slight alteration in accessories. 
Why fix something that isn't broken, right? 

Mis puutub teksaste ostmisesse, siis ma olen ilmselt üks kõige valivamaid inimesi maailmas ja minu standarditele vastavat paari on väga keeruline leida. Sellepärast kahtlesingi ainult hästi natuke, kui poes neid pükse jalga proovisin. 15 eurot? Istuvad hästi? Pahkluu juurest pisut lühemad? Olen üritanud neid mitte iga päev kanda, aga see on keeruline, kui üks paar pükse on nii mugavad, et nendes võiks magada (mida ma ka päriselt teinud olen). Loomulikult suutsin rattaga sõites püksid põlve pealt juba katki kukkuda, aga see ainult lisab sellist kerget mässumeelset aurat, ei? 
Paar päeva tagasi käisin koos Evamariaga Tartu parimate kaltsukatega tutvumas ja see riietus on täpselt õige šoppamise outfit. Tegelikult sobib see ükskõik mille jaoks, nagu ma viimasel ajal tõestanud olen. Kannan seda teksade-kampsuni kombinatsiooni vähemalt kaks korda nädalas, heal juhul ehteid vahetades. 
Miks üritada parandada midagi, mis ei ole katki, eks?

On again, off again

March 19, 2013

So, I'm sitting here and wondering, if the cold feeling in my bones will ever disappear. Today was so lovely and sunny and all I wanted to do was take off my coat and let the sun near me. Sadly, icy wind decided to come out to play and ruined all the fun. If I hadn't had my newest piece of clothing on me *khkm, thermals underneath* , there would probably be a Piia-sized icicle in that park. 
On a more fashion-forward note, I recently bought something that's actually visible on these pictures- a much-needed pair of black jeans and that cute little cross body bag, both from Lindex. I had been searching for a great pair of black skinnies for ages and after going to every decent store in Tallinn, I settled for the second best pair. The bag is just a little bonus, which caught my eye while leaving the shop. On sale and on my wishlist- it came home with me.
You know that until the weather gets better, every post will contain some whining about the cold and winter. You're welcome to join.

Istun siin ja mõtlen, et kas see külmatunne mu luudest kunagi ära ka kaob. Täna oli tõesti kena ja päikseline ja ma oleksin nii väga tahtnud ilma mantlita käia ja lasta päiksel end paitada. Kahjuks tahtis kõigest osa saada ka tõeliselt jäine tuul, mis rikkus kogu lõbu ära. Kui mul poleks olnud mu viimast ostu *khkm, termopluus*, siis oleks seal pargis Piia-suurune jääpurikas.
Siiski-siiski, olen ostnud ka midagi, mis päriselt on neil piltidel näha- ülivajalik paar musti teksaseid ja see armas õlakott, mõlemad Lindexist. Ma otsisin perfektset paari teksaseid nii kaua, käies Tallinnas läbi kõik põhilised poed, aga kuna ma ideaalset paari siiski ei leidnud, pidin leppima nendega, mis olid. Kott on kuidagi boonusena, nägin seda alles poest lahkudes. Kuna see oli allahinnatud ja mu wishlistis, siis tuligi minuga kaasa.
Te ilmselt juba olete aru saanud, et niikaua kuni ilm paremaks läheb, sisaldab iga postitus ilma-teemadel vingumist. Siiski kutsun teid endaga liituma!

The dress that makes me dream

March 14, 2013

Still being tormented by winter, I had to wear this dress I chose from Fashion Union in a more wintry outfit. Originally, it's a pretty lovely shirt-dress, perfect for frolicking on fields in summer or having a nice cup of coffee in a cafe in spring. These are still only dreams.. In winter, I suppose, when paired with a chunky cardigan and cold-bitten fingers, it's a nice outfit to escape to a warm house and bundle up on a couch with a cup of tea.
Anyway, aside from whining about weather, the dress is perfect. If you know me, then you might have noticed how much I love anything collared. So this dress is right up my alley. Also, the print is so fun and the fit seems like it absolutely made for me.  It felt only right to wear my vintage-looking jewellery with it.
Bare with me and hope for winter to realise that its 15 minutes of fame are over.

Kuna talv ikka veel piinab meid, siis pidin seda toredat kleiti kandma väga talvises outfitis. Tegelikult on see hästi armas särk-kleit, mis sobiks ideaalselt suvisteks jalutuskäikudeks maal või kevadel välikohvikus istumiseks. Kuigi praegu tundub, et sellised pildikesed ainult unistuseks jäävadki... Talvel, kui kanda seda koos suure ja sooja kardiganiga, on selles päris mõnus diivanil kerra tõmmata ja kuuma teed juua.
Kui kõik ilmateemaline virisemine kõrvale jätta, siis see kleit on täiesti võrratu. Kui olete seda blogi mõnda aega jälginud, siis ilmselt teate juba, et mul on väga soojad tunded kõikide riiete vastu, millel on krae. Nii et see kleit on vägagi minu tassike teed. Ja see muster ja lõige on nii toredad, see istub kui valatult! Samuti tundus kuidagi eriti õige kanda koos sellega oma vanaaegse hõnguga ehteid. 
Saame veel hakkama ja loodame, et talv viimaks mõistab, et tema tähetund on läbi.

The Uniform

March 07, 2013

Oh, how much I would give to actually wear this outfit outside, without having to take my coat off for the pictures. Dreaming of loafers and trench-coats while winter shows us its (hopefully) last efforts at being extremely cold and windy. Spring, we are definitely ready for you!
On to the actual look.. I found these jeans on sale at Marks&Spencer after I'd graciously let go of  my previous burgundy pair. I've always for some reason underestimated that shop, but in addition to having a kick-ass grocery store, I've started to realise that their clothes' section isn't that bad either-. Their sales sure show a great example to other retailers (there, -70% off actually means it, guys!).
The brooch is also a new acquisition from my sponsor Clothingloves, which stocks awesome wholesale women's clothing, inluding cool women's jackets and women's dresses. I'm so glad I chose this piece from their amazing jewellery section, not just another ring or bracelet. The brooch is so pretty and fits so perfectly with my uber-preppy and prim white-collared look, which has basically turned into my every-day uniform. 

Te ei kujuta ette, kui palju ma juba ootan seda aega, kui ma saaksin seda riietust päriselt õues kanda, ilma, et peaksin piltide jaoks mantli seljast ära võtma. Iga päev unistan oma vihmamantlist ja madalatest kingadest samal ajal, kui talv näitab meile oma (loodetavasti) viimaseid pingutusi ilma külmaks ja tuuliseks muutmisel. Kevad, me oleme sinu jaoks täiesti valmis!
Riietuse juurde nüüd.. Leidsin need lillakat tooni teksad Marks&Spencerist pärast seda, kui ma olin oma eelmise punase paari väga lahket ära andnud. Ma olen kogu aeg millegipärast seda poodi alahinnanud, aga tegelikult, lisaks sellele, et neil on täiesti võrratu toidupood, on nende riietepool ka päris lahe. Vähemalt allahindlused teevad küll teistele poodidele silmad ette (-70% allahindlus päriselt tähendabki seda!). 
Pross on ka üks tore uus ehe mu lõpmatusena tunduvas kollekstioonis. Sain selle oma sponsorilt Clothingloves'lt, mis on hullult lahe netipood, mis müüb väga suurt valikut riideid, kaasa arvatud ägedaod naiste kleite ja toredaid naiste jakke. Mul on nii hea meel, et ma nende rikkalikust valikust just selle valisin, mitte mõne tavalisema kaelakee või sõrmuse. See pross on tõesti kena ja sobib imehästi mu väga viksi ja viisaka riietusega, mis on peaaegu mu igapäevaseks riietuseks muutunud.

Sponsor Spotlight: Fashion Union

March 04, 2013

Arctic Monkeys- Fluorescent Adolescent  

Starting this week off on the right foot and introducing you to my new sponsor! I recently discovered Fashion Union and jumped at the opportunity of them becoming my newest sponsor! It is such a cool online shop with a really good selection of casual-but-cool dresses and skirts, just the kind that I'm dreaming of wearing, when spring finally decides to appear. Also stocking very warm and fuzzy-looking sweaters and the most awesome boots, it's the place to go.
I'm currently listening to Arctic Monkeys, so this collage was very much inspired by their music and style. Can you guess which of these items I chose?

Et nädal ikka hästi algaks, tutvustan teile oma uut sponsorit! Mõni aeg tagasi leidsin Fashion Union'i ja kui nad olid valmis mu sponsoriks hakkama, peaaegu hüppasin rõõmust! See on hullult lahe veebipood, mis müüb tõeliselt laia valikut toredaid kleite ja seelikuid, just selliseid, mille kandmisest ma unistan, kui kevad lõpuks saabub. Neil on veel ka väga palju mõnusaid kampsuneid ja väga vingeid saapaid, seega seadke sammud sinnapoole
Kuulan praegu Arctic Monkeys't ja nende muusika ja stiil ilmselt inspireeris seda riietevalikut siin kollaažis tugevalt. Mis te arvate, millise eseme ma valisin?

Anchors away

January 30, 2013

In reminiscence of warm summer nights by the seaside, I wore a whole outfit in the most classical nautical colour- navy. I've actually had this skirt for so long, but I think this is the first time this pleated number has appeared on the blog. Paired with my cosy and surprisingly warm nautical sweater (with gold anchor buttons and all), it makes a pretty neat everyday outfit. 
All in all, this outfit is another one by my this winter's recipe- sweater, collared shirt, skirt/jeans, ankle boots. Still not tired of it.

Mõeldes soojadele suveõhtutele mere ääres, juhtus kokku üks väga mereteemaline outfit. See seelik on mul juba päris kaua olnud, aga blogisse pole vist veel jõudnud. Koos minu mõnusa ja üllatavalt sooja triibulise "meremehekampsuniga" (sellel on isegi kuldsed ankrutega nööbid), on see üks päris tore igapäevane riietus.
Üleüldse langeb see väga hästi kokku minu selle talve retseptiga- kampsun, kraega pluus, seelik/teksad, madala säärega saapad. See pole mind veel ära tüütanud.

alt-J - Breezeblocks

Finally a new outfit post! I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.
This is the first time for one of my favourite recent purchases to appear on the blog- the plaid jeans. I had had them on my wishlist for months and then I accidentally came across them on an online auction site, had them altered a bit by my mom and poof! Now I'm the owner of a cool pair of jeans.
Also, with this outfit I understood the importance of having a great classic black coat. Simplicity at its best, really. To be completely honest with you, this isn't my coat, but I borrowed it from Getter, for the sake of having better (and warmer) pictures and some versatility. No harm in doing that, right? And I still haven't stopped wearing plain sweaters and collared shirts non-stop. They are my absolute go-to on a lazy morning.

See on esimene kord kui minu viimase aja lemmikost blogis kajastub, nimelt need ruudulised püksid. Ma olen endale juba päris mitu kuud selliseid teksaseid tahtnud ning kogemata leidsin need osta.ee'st, mu ema kohendas neid veidi ja ongi mul täpselt sellised püksid nagu tahtsin! 
Samuti avastasin, kui oluline on omada üht lihtsat ja klassikalist musta mantlit. Kui nüüd täielikult aus olla, siis see ei ole minu mantel, vaid laenasin selle Getterilt, kes lahkelt lubas mul seda piltide ajaks kanda. Aga toredama outfiti nimel ju võib? Ning ma ei ole veel jätnud ka tavaliste kampsunite ja kraega pluuside kandmist. Laiskadel hommikutel haaran just nende poole.
