Lucky strike

Hi! So today I finally managed to take pictures of all the stuff I brought home with me from Paris (and the stuff I've bought after that...) I'm really looking forward to this weekend, there'll be a big reason to celebrate ;) You'll hear more about that later!

First my favourite: a gorgeous leather jacket from Mango! And I have to admit: the place I shopped most in Paris was H&M :D the pretty black lace dress is from said shop.

The amazing mint lace shirt, also from H&M.

This is just an outfit I had on for my Grandma's 70th birthday :)

Outfit from today, the skirt was on sale in H&M... The H&M's in Paris were awesome, okay!

I found the perfect dress I had been looking for since can't remember when, from the best shop ever, Bershka. Love at first sight <3

Finally I have a heart-shaped cut out dress!

The next three are also from H&M :D

A cute journal made from recycled materials from a small boutique, Eiffel Tower key chain from the Eiffel Tower, magnet from Arc de Triomphe.

My mega bag from Zara :) This was very useful while lugging all that stuff along the streets of Paris.

These I bought with Oona: Love & Other Drugs (I still haven't seen it!), Puss In Boots, a lipstick that smells like sweets, and a cute nail polish from Essie, shade Bikini So Teeny :)

Maroon 5 - Lucky Strike

It's the unexpected that changes our lives

Heeeippa! 

Tää viikko tähän mennessä on menny ihan jäätävän nopeesti! Maanantaina käytiin Emilian kanssa kaupungilla shoppailemassa mun töiden jälkeen, ja noh, mitäänhän ei tarvinnut ostaa, mutta kyllähän sieltä jotain tarttui mukaan.

Tiistain ja tän päivän oonkin sitten ollut kotona sairaslomalla, huomenna taas töihin pirteenä ja terveenä. 

Perjantaina Emilia tulee meille yöksi, tehdään mun synttäreille kakku! Okei, se saattaa mennä siihen, että mä teen ja Emilia juttelee mulle. Emilia ei oikee vissii tykkää leipoa...jotkut saattaa muistaakkin mokkapala-episodin?

Paris, je t'aime - part 2

Hi! So, here are photos from day three to day five in our visit to Paris :) Day three was also dedicated to sight-seeing, and we finally got to go up the Eiffel Tower! We tried on day two but didn't want to wait three hours in line (only one elevator was operating so the lines were very long), but we were lucky the next day and only had to wait under two hours. It was worth the wait (if and when you visit Paris, be prepared to wait in line a lot)! Before the Eiffel Tower we went to see Sacré-Coeur, a basilica located on the highest point of Paris. Another thing you should be prepared to do in Paris: climb stairs :D

Montmartre is a very artistic part of Paris, and we came across a small market place filled with artists wanting to do our portraits!

The view from the Sacré-Coeur...

...and the basilica itself :)

Moulin Rouge was a bit of a disappointment, I thought it would be bigger and flashier in real life :D

We visited an aquarium where you could touch fish (they were very slimy)

This is what happened to the macarons in my bag :(

This is the view from the Eiffel Tower's second floor...

...and these are from the very top :D

Finland's highest building is pretty small compared to the Eiffel, the dotted line.

We finally went shopping on day four and a part of day five, and since I was focused on all the amazing clothes I didn't take much pictures :D But I can tell you that in big, fancy department stores they wait in line to see Chanel and Louis Vuitton bags (to keep the little spaces from getting too crowded I suppose)... These photos were taken after our shopping trip from a small café pretty near our hotel :)

Chocolat, the French definitely know how to make that!

On day five we did our last shopping and sight-seeing before heading for the airport and Finland :)

Another part of the massive Louvre.

You'll see what I brought home from Paris later ;)
