Hello my lovies,

About a month ago I was lucky to be invited to a lovely dinner hosted by Marisota. The dinner was to celebrate the launch of new range AVA by Mark Heyes. It was lovely to spend time with my fellow bloggers, and to meet Mark as well, he seemed like a really nice guy. As a part of the goodie bag for the event we got the chance to choose a few items from the range, and I chose a collarless coat and a studded blouse. The coat is a real bargain at £49, as it feels and looks really luxurious – well done Marisota and Mark!

The blouse actually comes with a cami, but I decided not to wear it. You know me and my love of all things sheer. AND how can I not show this gorgeous Curvy Kate Portia-bra as well? Am I right ;)?!






Coat*: 24, Marisota | Blouse*: 26, Marisota | Skirt: 24, Simply Be (similar at Simply Be) | Tights: E, We Love Colors | Boots: Evans | Bra*: Curvy Kate | Glasses: Select Specs | Lippy: Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids in Brazen Berry

Takki*: 24 UK, Marisota | Paita*: 26 UK, Marisota | Hame: 24 UK, Simply Be (saman tyylinen Simply Be:llä) | Sukkikset: E, We Love Colors | Saappaat: Evans | Rintsikat*: Curvy Kate (saatavilla: Simply Be, Lumilingerie) | Rillit: Select Specs | Huulipuna: Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids in Brazen Berry

Heippa!

Noin kuukausi sitten sain kutsun Marisotan järjestämälle illalliselle, ja illallisella juhlittiin merkin uutta AVA by Mark Heyes-mallistoa. Marisota ei valitettavasti toimita Suomeen, mutta kuuluu samaan konserniin kuin Simply Be, eli osa malliston tuotteista löytyy Simply Be:n EU-kaupasta. Illallisella oli kiva viettää aikaa bloggaaja-kavereiden kanssa, ja Mark itse vaikutti oikein mukavalta mieheltä. (Hän on siis kuuluisa stylisti täällä Briteissä.) Osana tapahtuman goodie bagiä oli se, että saimme valita mallistosta pari tuotetta joista pidimme eniten. Valitsin siis kuvissa näkyvän takin ja paidan. Paitaan kuuluu oikeasti musta alustoppi, mutta minähän rakastan läpinäkyviä paitoja, joten päätin jättää alustopin pois. Päällä oli kauniit ja istuvat Curvy Katen Portia-rintsikat, joten niiden sietääkin näkyä ;)!

Fatshion Faceoff: Knee-high boots

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Hello lovelies,

Once again it’s Wednesday, and I’m sure you know it’s Fatshion Faceoff time! If you’re new to the blog, please see here what Fatshion Faceoff is about :). This week’s theme was chosen by Olivia, and she chose knee-high boots/over the knee boots.

Now I’m definitely cheating in this challenge… these boots are mid-calf length, BUT they are the only ‘long’ boots that I own. ALL the others are ankle boots or shoe boots. So please forgive me on this ;). I went for a ‘country girl’ look, which in my opinion would look better without the black tights, but it was too cold to be without them. I broke my shopping ban a bit when my mom was visiting London (I couldn’t let her do ALL the shopping, haha), and this bargainous £6 skirt from Primark was one of my purchases. I wore it with my current wardrobe favourite, my ASOS Curve denim shirt which I love to bits – I could seriously wear it with everything :)!

I’m sure I’m the only ‘failing fashionista’, and the other girls do have actual knee-high boots.. Let’s go see!

Fatshion Faceoff: 1st Anniversary Party

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Hello lovelies,

Once again it’s Wednesday, and I’m sure you know it’s Fatshion Faceoff time! If you’re new to the blog, please see here what Fatshion Faceoff is about :). This week’s theme is our 1st anniversary, so we are wearing outfits that we’d wear if we’d have a chance to go and party together (I hope someday we will!). I can’t believe we have done this challenge for a year – that means 52 posts! I have also gotten to know these ladies better and I love them all <3!

So, what would I wear then? I got this tulip dress from ASOS sale in December, but I haven’t worn it yet. I love the shape of it, I have never owned something like this before. I wore it with my leopard heels from Clarks, and my flowery headband from Forever 21.

OOTD: Pretty army

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Hello my lovelies,

Sorry I’ve been quiet in social media lately.. I am STILL ill, actually today I got prescribed some killer antibiotics (since first ones didn’t work) and the whole week off work. My mom is coming to London Wednesday evening, so I hope I will be lots better by then..

Anyway, thankfully I had this exciting post waiting in my drafts, so I can give you a new OOTD (while wearing woollen socks and being covered in duvets). So, a while ago I got a chance to organise a 4 blogger challenge for Simply Be. I asked the beauties Amy, Naomi and Sian to do the challenge with me, and we all got to style this amazing military jacket.

I think this jacket could be styled zillion ways, and this time I went with monochrome with bits of gold. The ASOS Curve dress I wore is quite fancy, so it’s nicely dressed down with this jacket. I have lots of other outfits planned in my head though, so you will surely see this jacket more here and on my Instagram.

I adore this jacket, and want to thank Simply Be for giving us a chance to do this challenge :). Can’t wait to see how the others styled it? Me neither – let’s go see!
