More sneakers!

Just one pair though. Nike Classic Cortez Nylon 09 in bright peachy pink (I quess it's officially red, but believe me it's nothing close to classic red). A pair I found from bElles - Baskets for Elles sneakers store's pop up store at Lasipalatsi Helsinki. They were on sale so I couldn't resist.

Marimekko

I love Marimekko as you might already know and lately I've bought some new stuff to brighten up my spring. First, the Marimekko ♥ Converse collaboration Kirppu sneakers.

How cool!

iCan't

What a week! I have so much to do and some of them include learning new stuff and it feels I'm just too dumb for all that. New computer program, new phone, calculating stuff I'm not good at... blah. I'm excited about my new iPhone 4 but changing from Nokia to Apple has been bit complicated. If I had time and energy I'd been using it like a pro by now, but I don't, so my iPhone is neclected and can't show all it's potential to me. At least I got Spotify uploaded to it.

So what ever I have promised about posting "today" or "soon" or "tomorrow" just forget it. The post can be posted in 15mins or within a week. No promises. I'm anxious to get back to blogging, but some boring obligations have to be done first. It's just that I like this blog more than some of my work tasks (some are great, some little less great..) and I have hard time for finding motivation for them right now. So if you see me blogging here once a day, boycot this blog please. No blogging for me for few days!

Spending money again

Ahhh! Spring fever just gets worse!
Last friday was the Marimekko ♥ Converse -day. At 5pm the shoes were finally and officially in stores and I was among the first ones to get my hands on them. Which ones I picked? Stay tuned, I will post pictures after work! This is what I a) have time to post because of the pics I stole from online and b) am very excited about too.

Rütme Hannah pants!

Furtastic Finland

Once again we are talking about the fur industry in Finland in the media. A Finnish animal rights organisation Oikeutta Eläimille published a video material from Finnish sertified fur farms where they found lots of sick, injured and stressed animals which weren't getting veterinary care. The organisation filmed the farms secretly for months and saw same animals suffering from severe eye and gum infections month after month.

Mixing

About a month ago I did a survey in some random website about what type of interior designer am I. The result was that my style is classic and I favor quality brands with a long design history. I felt bit weird with the result, because I've always seen myself more like a quirky decorator than a classic one. But then I started to look around me. Marimekko, Eames, IvanaHelsinki, Iittala,.. all internationally well known design brands, hmm.
