Walking in the nature

Just a few pictures when i visited Verla, an old factory (now a museum). Flowers were blooming everywhere.











Back home i got so excited about the possibilities of using wild plants as food so i made salads... for the next two weeks and then i got bored with the neutral tastes.




 I also started to pick flowers. I loved the fresh smell of them.






 And as we are on the theme of flowers; this is my new vintage watch. The biggest part opens and reveals the clock.




 Thank you for your time!

Let the summer post marathon begin!

Minulla on ihan hirveästi postattavaa tältä kesältä. Yhteensä 136 kuvaa muokattuna ja odottamassa. Jostain on siis aloitettava, maratooni alkakoon. Yritän postata joka päivä jotakin. Aluksi vaikka vähän asukuvia ja kerronpa samalla siitä onnettomuudesta. Nämä ovat tosin keväältä eivätkä kesältä.
 Jatkan tästä englannilla kokonaan.

I have so many things to post from this summer. 136 pictures are waiting to be uploaded. So i have to start somewhere! Let the marathon begin! I'll try to post one entry a day. Now some outfit pictures and details about my accident. These are from spring, not summer, though.


1st outfit


 It was still cold. I tried casual erololita but it looked really bad. I'm not happy with it at all. But my make-up looked quite fine with the ringlet wig and circles. First i was afraid it would look too average but i succeeded in making my look dolly.


I tried to play with shiny materials. The shoes and the belt are both shiny fake leather.

And btw, at this time i was really happy about my weight. My weight was around 67 kg and i also got a lot of muscles from my job at the horse stables. I had never been in such a good shape, i could even see my abdominals! Last time i weighted under 70 kg was like.... two years ago so i was really confident and losing even more fat!



After that the accident happened


We were riding two stallions. I rode Lumi, a really pretty arabian horse. Then suddenly the other horse tried to attack Lumi even though they've been friends and cool with each other to this day. Unfortunately he hit me instead of Lumi. So basically, i was accidentally bitten by a horse.


The result: Tight swollen, bleeding traces of teeth, huuge bruising (you can't really see it all in the picture, it was a lot worse) and muscles torn. I was walking with crutches for the next two months. After four months i still have dark scars, i still get bruises when i run so the torn muscle tissue still bleeds and i have two holes where there should feel muscles. But shit happens and i'm recovered now and can use my leg normally. Luckily i can't even remember the pain i suffered! It feels like it happened to someone else completely. I love my brains for that. 
But i gained 5 kg and lost all my muscles so my confidence went down the drain. Now i've started to lose weight again and grow some muscles back so i'm getting better in that part too.



Wheelchair lolita

 

 I had to run some errands so i got a wheelchair for couple of days as i could not walk for long with the crutches.



School entrance exams

 

 I could already use my leg so i could stand and even pose on my own. I had the energy to even do my make-up better but could not wear lolita as this was for school entrance exams. So something casual but still very me.


Of course i also made matching nails.


Last outfit for Fashion Night




I coordinated an outfit with black and red and gold with my black and red crutches. Kouvola had this event called Fashion Night so finally i had a reason to dress in lolita.



That's all for today. Thanks for watching!

Lolita Videos, my new Tumblr

Sain idean tehdä Tumblrin pelkästään lolitaa käsitteleville videoille. Nopealla haulla en löytänyt yhtäkään (kertokaa kuitenkin jos sellaisen tiedätte). Aion itse postata säännöllisesti, mutta lukijat voivat myös lisätä omia videoitaan tai löydöksiään. Muut j-muotivideot ja hyödylliset tutoriaalit ovat myös sallittuja.

So i got this idea of making a Tumblr for lolita videos from all over the world. I didn't find any as i searched but please do tell me if one already exists. Anyway, i will post frequently myself but you can also submit your own findings and vlogs! Other j-fashion related vids and useful tutorials are also accepted.



Lastly have a cute little kitty!

Some Youtube finds

Rakastan etsiä lempiaiheistani videoita Youtubesta. Kuten lolitasta, nukeista, historiallisesta vaatetuksesta, hius- ja meikkitutoriaaleja. Niistä saa niin paljon inpiraatiota!

I love to search Youtube videos of my favorite things. Like lolitas, dolls, historical clothing and hairstyles, make-up tutorials and music. I get so inpsired by all these pretty videos that are just a click away.

Belle Epoque
En ymmärrä kieltä, mutta voi katsokaa noita asuja! Ja kuinka monta osanottajaa! Tällaisia suomeenkin, jooko./ I don't understand the language, unfortunately, but look at all those outfits! And how many participants! I want happenings like this to Finland, too.


Old but good
Yksi mielenkiintoisimmista lolipätkistä Youtubessa ikinä. Katson tämän uudestaan ja uudestaan ja varmaan jokainen onkin sen jo nähnyt, mutta katsokaa nyt vielä kerran. Ja toisen./ One of the most interesting videos of lolita ever uploaded on Youtube. I watch this over and over again and i recommend you do the same. I know probably everyone has already seen it but darn it, it's too good not to post.


Lolitas of Canada
Ihana kolmen videon sarja Kanadan lolitoista. On aina mielenkiintoista kurkistaa toisten lolitojen elämään./ Lovely series of three videos about lolitas in Canada. It's always nice to peek into other lolis's lives.

Jostain syystä en saa viimeistä videota tähän, sori. 
For some reason i can't add the last video. Sorry.

A little doll museum
Ihan vain pieni pätkä pienestä nukkemuseosta ja ihania nukkeja! Toivon joskus omistavani jotakin tällaista. Huoneen omistettuna nukeille tai sitten museon tai myyntiliikkeen/ Just a little video of a little doll museum and cute dolls everywhere! I wish one day i'd have something like this myself. A room full of dolls or a museum or a doll shop.

Finally a new post!

Hei (pitkästä aikaa)! Anteeksi tätä monen kuukauden postaustaukoa. Ensin olin ratsastusonnettomuudessa (josta kesti parantua kaksi kuukautta) ja sen jälkeen olen ollut yksinkertaisesti liian kiireinen bloggailulle. Aina kun olen tietokoneellakin notkunut on ollut paljon muuta tekemistä. Nyt olisi paljon asuja postattavana, uutta vaatetta näytettävänä ja giveaway suunniteltavana 150 lukijan rajan ylittämisen kunniaksi (ja Tumblrin 200 rajan)! Vielä en osaa sanoa kuinka iso arvonnasta tulee, mutta joitakin itemejä löytyy jo sitä varten. Ensin on kuitenkin tiedettävä työllisyystilanteeni seuraaville kuukausille, eh eh.

Kuitenkin, tässä nyt yksi asu. Pidin sitä Helsinki Pridessa, mutta se on oikeastaan koottu Lockshopin asukilpailua varten. Näytän kollaasin, jolla kisaan osallistuin, kunhan kaikki osallistujat postataan Lockshopin Facebook -sivuille, 

Kuvat on ottanut ihana kiltti Milla.

Hello! Sorry i haven't posted for so long. First i was in a riding accident and after i got better (it took two months) i've just been plain busy with everything. And every time i've been on a computer i've had something else to do than blogging. Now i have a lot of outfits to post, new stuff to show and i'm finally planning a giveaway as this blog finally reached 150 followers (and my Tumblr 200!). But i'm not sure how big it will be. First i have to know will i get a job or not hahah. But i already have some items for it.

Anyway, have one outfit for now. I wore this to Helsinki Pride but actually coordinated it for Lockshop's outfit contest. I'll show you the collage i entered with as soon as Lockshop posts the contestants on their Facebook page.

Pictures were taken by the lovely Milla.
