NEW HAIR


This is what it looks like after the final bleaching. Still pastel pink but I'm gonna go with "close enough"! The blue is rather dark I hope it covers this.

I found my fox fur collar from my closet, haven't used it in a long long time. I still love it very much. Once of my best second-hand purchases! Now that winter is coming it won't look as weird to wear fur, maybe I'll take this bad boy out for a walk sometime soon. I'm hoping Enfant Terrible will have a lolita meet-up soon so I can go show off my clothes.



After the bleaching episode, I finally used my blue hair dye! It turned out rather fabulous!! I really like the end result, it's alittle greenish at some parts - like always sigh - but i most parts I think it's cool. I need to re-dye is this weekend to get a better result. Also thinking about maybe going one shade darker. It looks so much darker in real life omg. I'm always surprised when I take a photo.





The hair dye nicely sticks to my skin and fingers and basicly everything it touches...


I went to one of the PSC meet-ups after a long long break. I don't know why haven't I been going but.. Well now I did! It was nice meeting with other cosplayers from my area, hearing what they are up to.. And Ecca even managed to talk me into entering to an cosplay competition!!

Tiiau had her rocking horses on her when she came. Somehow Sallamari managed to steal them from her while she and Ecca practiced for a cosplay show. I had to try them on!! I actually really really like them and I know I've been saying I'll never get ones because they won't suit me but.. I guess it wouldn't be that bad? If I ever come across a good pair I can afford then yes, why the hell not!

MAKEUP AND BONES


Last week we went on a school trip and I was glad it was a Monday because I had time to do my makeup properly. I also wore a wig because wigs are stylish! And finally I came around using my blue lipstick!! Never wore it outside  before but I thought I gotta give it a try. It actually looks really cool.




Umm.. I just really needed to take a picture of this because LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT!! I had just done my makeup, I opened to bathroom door and was about to walk out when this bitch came sprinting at me from the living room and than god stopped at some point. I ran to kitchen and grabbed a big heavy glass.I squeezed that loser down! Really it was terrible and I cried! I am a huge Aracnophobic! I'm really proud of myself because I killed it myself.


In art class our teacher decided to take us on a field trip to go draw something. Sitting in the same classroom for 7 hours is pretty exhausting and it was really cool to go out for a while. School payed us a trip to the "Animal Museum" in Helsinki. It's a place full of filled animals in setting that are very close to their natural habitat, plus lots of skeletons, sounds clips of their communication and information about there animals and where they live. It's a super cool place and all the animals were cute.



At one point we started thinking how cool are those settings! It would be very interesting to work on that field and so stuff like that, because some of the cases were just so cool!




There is a whole room for the beginning of the Eart and its creatures so ofcourse they gotta have some dinosaurs over there. These were huuuuge!


That is a skeleton or a monkey! I think it was adorable!


Skeleton garden





I decided to do a darker makeup this time. I also cut my hair a bit no now the layers are better and I can just feel how much easier it is to style again!! This picture ended up as my new dA ID picture. I'm actually starting to like that pink color, but I am still going to do the blue. This will be fun while it lasts.

GO, BUY & CHANGE YOUR HAIR


These past weeks I haven't much had time to sit around at home, I've been pretty much on the go for a while! Just few weeks ago I had the chance to visit my best with Hilbo, so we had a very tiny slumber party. No more from that, but do have some makeup pictures!




I finally decided to make my hair what I really honestly wanted it to be! Aka I began my journey towards dark blue hair! I've had it twice before but back then I didn't know what I know now and for obvious reasons it did not work. Now I have more time and I have a plan!

Yet ofcourse things didn't go like in movies..


Bought two packs of bleach and I thought that this should get rid of the last bits of red and I'd be ready for the silver hairdye. But no!!

This being the end result!

I actually think it looks rather cute, but so not what I wanted. Now I have to wait a few weeks before I bleach it again because of money and I need to let my hair rest for a while. It's in a terrible condition, I will have to clip down the ends to make it look healthier. Lets hope the next bleaching will get me close enough.. It's funny how my roots are like silvery white but the red/pink just won't leave me!

I look like a damn anime magical girl.  Like Madoka or something.


I went shopping with Sallamari. I was gathering all my hair supplies, plus makeup, tea and others. Also some small cosplay things if I remember correctly.

Ended up tea shopping once again! Last time we visited The Ounce Sallamari bought this tea, Liisa Peilimaassa (Alice in Mirrorworld) and she said it's really good. It smelled like heaven and I just had to get some for myself! I think it's damn delicious, but I've had better. I mean it has it's own unique taste to it, but I still think my chocolate tea is my favorite! If you have any good tea recommendations, please tell!

Bought a new powder and damn that took a million years because the container has changed. Also the name of my color has changed!

Here are my hair dyes! When I get my hair blonde enough I'm gonna use some Silver to get it to a cold color, a better base for the blue. Also I'm gonna use the Silver in my conditioner to fight the green undertone my blue hair always gets... I hope just one container is enough for my hair, it's getting kinda long and in the first bleaching I ran out!! It was damn horrible!


Some random shopping picture from when I went to town with Kiti. I bought stuff for my Tracon cosplay and also I haven't seen Kiti on a long long time. We just somehow click, you know.


Jack Steam is having a new faceup! Hilbo finally finished faceuping Heinz and I think that turned out really well, I was actually teeny bit jealous. So I decided that we need to personalize Jack a bit. I mean the faceup Varjostin made was beautiful, but it needed details. We used Varjostin's faceup as a base for it and Hilbo is already down to work. I will have lots of better pictures when the faceup is actually ready.


Uuummmh.. So I'm back to school again! Our school moved to Myllypuro because our school building had mold in it and it'll be out of use for few years. So now I have a really fucking huge school trip (almost and hour) and the place is ugly as fuck. Not to say crowded and messy too. Kinda scared on graduating there because there is no way a human can produce something pretty in there.

Our school yard is very beautiful and safe!

Class sealing. One of the first classes to have working computers in it. We are running out of classrooms because there really aren't that many and some are still under construction. Ps. There is no air ventilation!

Hella creepy fire exit. Our teacher made us use it once, just in case someone didn't know how to walk down stairs if fire emerged! Not cool, I was scared as fuck to climb down from the fifth floor on these!

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO, PRINCE??

There has been alot of talk about getting new clothes and sneak peaks of basicly everything. Twitter updates  about arriving parcels. Well now I finally have pictures of what I've bought with all my birthday money. And now that I look at all this I am pretty proud of myself, I spent my money well! Hope you like it all because I sure do.




1. Crown cardican (black&gold) by Bodyline. Cost 40$. I realized I don't have anything warm to go on top of my blouses or something to wear under a jacket. And since I'm not a hoodie person I kinda decided I need something like this. It's just so cute! Gold is not my color, but this doesn't come in silver so I may forgive myself.

2. Blouse (black) by Atelier BOZ. Bought as second.hand, cost 36€. This is my first ever brand ouji piece. So I love it very dearly plus I think it looks fabulous. It's a Japanese size S and I was told that it wouldn't probably fit me properly but I took the risk and it fits perfectly! Guess I'm smaller than we all think.

3. Blouse (black) by Bodyline. Cost 40$ One of the shirts I got along with Sallamari's order. It has little bows on the sleeves and I think it's a really cute shirt. Whenever I actually might get a lolita skirt or a jumperdress this is really something I'd wear with that!

4. Blouse with a long back (black) by Bodyline. Cost 40$. My second favorite purchase and most used at the moment. I really love that long back and the front ruffles. 

5. Suspender Miniskirt (black) by Hell Bunny, bought from Morticia. Cost 39€. I haven't owned a skirt in a long long time. It's been even longer since I've worn a skirt. So I think I really needed this one too! It's veeery short but I think it looks cool with torn stockings. If it were longer it would get boring. Besides I can wear black shorts under it. 

6. Pants (black) by Bodyline. Yet again something I didn't own before this. I didn't have any good shorter pants that wouldsuit my style, so I bought these! The material sadly picks up every dog hair etc there is but I really love them. It's an odd length but that makes me love them even more.

7. Top (black) by ????. This was a freebie from a friend who didn't need it. Said it was too girly. So I took it because ONCE AGAIN I didn't have anything summery or cooler to wear since it was hot. I kinda like it, it makes my boobs look huge and I look kinda skinny and girly in it. Not sure if I'd wear this out, but it's something nice to wear at home or at a friends place.

8. Puff sleeve blouse (black) by Bodyline. Cost 40$. Not my favorite shirt. I think it looked better on the website. It makes my shoulders look really broad and it doesn't suite me. But I think I'll grow on it and when I figure out what to wear with it it'll be good. No clothing with me goes un-worn.


1. Brooch from Backstreet. Cost 4€ (??). I had been checking out something similar from Bodyline but decided not to order quite yet. When I ran into this bad boy on a shopping trip with Tala I thought I just had to have it! Turns out I wear it quite alot and it brings a whole new look on my vests etc.

2. Ruffles + cameo piece by Bodyline. This came with last picture's number four. I use this quite alot too. My favorite ruffle and I do love my ruffles. The cameo piece is a really cool accessory even tho it's not reallt my color. I am being very forgiving nowadays I see.

3. Ruffles by Bodyline. Came with last picture's number eight. Still not in very big use since I like the other one better. This one isn't as fluffy as the other one, need some airing I guess.

4. Pink bowtie by Bodyline. Cost 4$. I really don't wear pink but it was so cute I thought what the heck, I might just give it a chance. And when I find the right kinda outfit this will be perfect. I like the kinda dusty pink color it has, not that sweet pastel pink. I also love the school uniform -kinda feeling it has.

5. Black bowtie by Bodyline. Came with last picture's number three. Attaches with a pin. I wear this quite alot with my BOZ I think they fit well together. I also love the size of this bow, bigger is better.

6. Blue bowtie by Bodyline. Cost 4$. The same deal as the pink one, this one is just more of my color. I really like it and I wear it with my not-so-showy outfits. Plus I'm really into this whole school uniform thing, I think they are cool and this bowtie will be perfect for that.


I actually went really photoshooting my new stuff with my best friend.


My makeup for the photoshoot. 



Whoa shit was windy! It was like impossible to photoshoot.


I finally actually took Hamlet with me somewhere. I really love my little "son".





These are my new shoes! What do you think? I bought them from SinisterSoles, the brand is Demonia, model TORMEN-804 (my second pair of Demonia shoes). They cost 109€ +some handling fees. The heel is about 14cm but they are very comfortable to walk with. I still need some practice but I thought it'd be alot harder! The round platform makes it easier.



Creme Brulée tea from The Ounce. I find myself more and more addicted to tea nowadays! It's just so delicious!



I bought some nail stuff too! I've been craving for long nails for a while and I decided to try something I've read about on Cupcake Couture's blog. Which is using tips! I bought some on eBay, they are actually very cheap and I bought some glue to go with it since I didn't have any at home. Nothing expensive or fancy, just some cheap glue. The glue happened to come in packs of 10 and the nails in packs of 500. Now I have something to work with for quite awhile!



The gluing was a bit difficult in the beginning but after few nails I got better. I cut them a bit shorter since they are very long, too long for my taste since I've loved with short nails for over 6 months. I filed them slightly leaner and rounded them for painting. Below rest the ending results. I sadly had to take them off quite quickly because of an eye contact fitting.

Tho it was very easy and it looked really good. I recommend people to try it. I actually might be selling some of the nails since there are 10 different sized (from 0 to 9) and not all of the sizes fit my nails.


I went out! Can you believe I went out again! This time it was with my classmates, it's really nice to hang around with them. They are the best! We spent a wonderful Friday evening at Kaivari and everybody esle drank except me. I actually didn't feel like drinking because my last time drinking turned out so bad. I think alcohol doesn't suite me and I actually don't want to drink. Never the less, I didn't even feel left out even if I was sober!

Fashion friend - me & Linda! I really love her style, plus she's such a bitch I love it. Look at those legs!!
Shoe jealousy! Gotta love her Litas!
