dream team

 I havent been too keen on the Nike Airmax. However... I have had a change of heart after I saw these Nike Air Max Thea PRM Trainers. On my radar at the moment and I will probably make a purchase once the first pay check hits the bank. Do research before buying as different web sites or stores can vary in prices IMMENSELY. An example with these shoes... First I saw them in Stadium (a finnish sports store), price = 149 euros. Beamhill, a store in helsinki, price = 145 euros. ASOS, price = 104 euros. Yeah... huge difference, and you can guess where I will be buying from. (free delivery worldwide as well).

They are not too white, but more of a shade of whites as well as some grey, and the heel has a hint of blue in them (if you look close enough). Comfortable for sure and they can be worn with so many things. Yes to all.

After two weeks of being back in Finland I can safely say that I have been terrible with keeping up the blogging. Although I said to myself I wouldn't let it happen... it did. To be honest it has been a lack of time as well as inspiration to take pictures that have led to this. It is time to change now as I have settled into my new home, started work, and began my so called summer break. I am going to be working all summer really, and that is why I would say it is a so called "break" as it really revolves around work.

Hopefully soon I can start wearing summer clothes, photographing more and really keeping up with the daily, weekly, blogging. Until then I will try my best to show off some of finland and some must go to spots in Helsinki. Stay patient.

Vappu, or first of may did just pass and we had such an amazing celebration. I havent been in Finland for about 10 years for this holiday and I was so hyped up for it! On vappuaatto, me and my boyfriend took it easy, having a nice dinner at home after which we headed to Helsinki where we joined my parents and some friends for champagne at a boat. Soon to follow was some drinks at a friends flat after which we headed back home.

Now on Vappupäivä we had a lot planned. Well it wasnt all planned as I was unsure what we were attendind and what not. However the day started with me joining my whole family at Kaivopuisto (a popular park in helsinki) con champagne, after which we started heading to our lunch spot where my boyfriend joined us as well. After the delicious food we (me + my boyfriend) took of to visit a friends brunch at her house. (no food was eaten as we were so stuffed unfortunately), but were served some delicious mimosas. From there we headed to Hartwall Areena to watch Finland vs. Russia hockey match with the family. This was such a nice little break from the drinks and a little bit of a different experience. Well after the game it was time for some food apparently, so we all headed to my parents house to enjoy some steaks for dinner. The day ended with the youngsters heading into town to a bar and celebrating, just a little.
