Animals and nail polishes

Hi!

Somehow I won tickets to a pet, outlet, child and arts & crafts fair/expo from a contest on instagram so I asked Laura to join me and we decided to go. The expo was this weekend and I had really no idea what they had there that I'd be interested in but I found out the outlet expo had some pretty cheap nail polishes. It was nice because I'm getting more into nail art again, especially now that I have some new stuff. I ended up buying a bit more than I was planning on but I stayed in my budget the whole day, even after the expo!





Our friend joined us at the expo and after we had walked around for few hours, we decided to leave, go eat some Chinese food and go to few stores at the central. It was such a lovely weather outside. I'm so happy it's getting warmer!







Here's all the things I bought today:


China Glaze - Liquid Crystal, Essie - Mint Candy Apple (a nail polish I've wanted for YEARS), Blanc and Shake Your $$ Makers


Lumene Natural Code - Jewel Green, Angry Birds 54 and Pink Diamond and Lumene - Quick Sand (Jäljet hiekassa)


BYS - Ultra Violet, Diamond Glitter Satin and Emerald


We went to CesarsShop's store after the expo and I got a Nailfix cuticle oli in yummy gummy and Diamond Dazzling and Hexagon Dazzling glitters.


From a random craft store I got two tubes of holographic glitter to use on my nails and from Kicks I got a buffing nail file or whatever those are called :D

I had a really fun day and thanks girls for the company! :)

See you soon!

It's adventure time again

Hi!

I visited Helsinki for the weekend because couple of my favorite youtubers from Ireland (BriBry and Candice) were having a meet up on Sunday and I REALLY wanted to meet them. This ended up being a perfect weekend to visit Helsinki as two other youtubers from the USA I'm a fan of (Joven and Lasercorn from Smosh Games) were in Helsinki too and tweeted on Friday that they'll have a meet up on Saturday. I went to the meet up on Saturday with my friend Laura who gets credits for most of the pictures from that day and on Sunday I met a bunch of my friends from twitter which was really nice. Overall, I had such a great weekend and I'm so so so happy I decided to go to Helsinki :) All the youtubers I met were super lovely and I couldn't stop smiling for the whole weekend.

Also this post is going to be mostly pictures but aren't pictures worth a thousand words? :P

Some air hockey before the movie 

We went to see Cinderella which was great btw :D

Sunday

A mini show at the meet up which was super lovely

They sold some stuff at the meet up and I got couple of albums and a super cute hat :3



Candice noticed that we had matching phone cases which was really cool :D 



I gave BriBry an eyeliner from a Finnish makeup brand and he got really happy about it and hugged me :3


And now I'm sitting on a 12 hours long train ride on my way to Rovaniemi. I got a ticket in some kind of new cart that has spinning, single chairs and this isn't as bad as it could be. We'll see how dead I'll be in our first aid course tomorrow :DD

See you soon!

Winter break haul 1

HI!

So I went shopping today with my friend Laura today. I saved up some money especially to buy new clothes from Helsinki since my style has changed a lot this year. I found some amazing things and I'm so happy. I think I'm going to go through my closet when I go back to Rovaniemi and sell all the clothes I haven't worn in a long time. Anyway, here's what I bought today:

 I'm kind of obsessed with making little animals and charms out of loom bands and they had way more colors in Sinelli here. I got sparkly pink, 2 bags of black, silver, 2 bags of gold, red, bronze/brown and light blue.

From Anttila I got a Nivea in-shower body milk. And from H&M couple of makeup brushes since I was really smart and left mine at home.

Shirt and skirt from H&M

Top and skirt from H&M

Skirt and jacket from New Yorker  


See you soon!

Christmas break haul

Hi!

So since I'm back in Helsinki and the after Christmas sales are going on, I've been doing way too much shopping for the past 2 days so I thought I'd show you what I got. I think only few things I bought weren't on sale.


A new thermos mug from Starbucks to keep my tea in on school mornings.


I went to look for a new book to read from Akateeminen and my friend recommended this and it sounded pretty interesting.


From Kicks I got IsaDora's peel off base for nails and Hugo Boss's Jour Pour Femme body lotion.


The Body Shop had brought back couple of their body scrubs I had missed when they were on sale so I got the raspberry one. It literally smells like raspberry jam.


From Sokos I got IsaDora's transparent lip liner, Rimmel's stay matte powder, a back up for my favorite makeup sponge from Cailap, Rimmel's Scandaleyes mascara, I Love... hand soaps in Raspberry & Blackberry and Mango & Papaya and Cleansing wipes from Nivea.


A book about how to keep your apartment clean and put together in a laid back way. I will probably need this more than I even know.


Went to Sokos again and got a GOSH lip lacquer in Crispy lips, a lip brush from We Care Icon and a night cream from Lumene.


I went to a different Kicks and almost died when I saw they had Dior eyeshadows HALF OFF. I've been dreaming about owning one of these for about 5 years so I just had to get one. This one was in 954 Pink Pompadour.




I went a bit crazy in Lush since their holiday stuff was half off. I got sets called Cozy Christmas and Good Tidings. Both of them include different kind of shower and skin care stuff.


Lastly we went to a toy store and I just had to get all the ridiculous One Direction stuff because why not. They were all on sale anyway. I got a secret diary (not so secret anymore) that is also a pillow, some toothbrushes (which are probably the funniest things I've seen), a singing toothbrush, stickers and some Frozen sticker packs.

See you soon!
