So Cheap I Feel Guilty!

Today is the first Friday of the month. Which means 50% off all women's clothing at Revivals thrift store.

I must admit, this is the only day I ever go there.

Today's haul was the best ever: 

Two big bags of goodies!

I found three dresses-one of them by Koos Van Den Akker (remember those famous Bill Cosby sweaters?)

Cool owl t-shirt

Silk blouse

Wool skirt

Vintage cardigan and a vintage short sleeve top!

It's times like these I feel like getting out of the store so quick, like I stole something...

Happy Birthday Finland

So proud to be from Finland!

Girls Night In!

Some time ago couple of friends and myself decided to do something fun while having girls night-instead of just drinking tons of wine!

At home "photo shoot" with $1 fake lashes and samples from my vintage wardrobe, and we had so much fun!

Here are few snap shots....

Desperate housewife look :)

Army bound

My lovely friend who I personally think looks just like a famous blonde-Marilyn!

  

Towards the end of the night, blurry is good...

What a great night. And we did consume quite a bit of wine too...

Can't wait to do it again!

Celebrity Inspiration?

I'm not big on following celebrity styles, or fancying any particullar famous person.
But since most bloggers seem to do so I too decided to pick at least one celebrity who's style I could adapt for my own...

Jessica Alba seems to be know for her bikini body, and pics with her wearing less clothing than more...but whenever I see pics of her just running around with her kids, I love the fact that she's still well put together-I'd like to imagine that's how I would be.

 I don't have any kids-ONE might be plausible in the near future :)

But I certainly don't want to be the mom who sleeps,eats, and does everything in her pajama bottoms!

You can be stylish without having a paid consultant with you at all times.

Now if I could just have her body (personal trainer) right after I have a baby...

My Husband Calls Me John

So another obsession I had...
I wanted round sunglasses, Chanel  or Cartier would've been nice, but totally out of my price range-altough I did a lot of searching on eBay and Etsy!

As it seems I'm the luckiest girl on earth, couple of weeks ago I was shopping at my local Goodwill...I was done, standing at the register waiting for my total and I decided to glance at the pile of sunglasses on the counter and what do I spy with my little eyes!

These glasses are not quite round, but slightly oval. I can deal with that.

Closer examination revealed that they are Giorgio Armani glasses...and with the price tag of $7.99 I grabbed them fast, didn't even need to try them on!

I like them. My husband calls me John-as in John Lennon. 

Oh well, what does he know anyway :)
