Cold toes are forbidden

Allora, today my post is something ugly :) Here in Finland, there's one design of some kind of shoes... actually they're meant for old people, but some young people has them too :) Also they're ugly, but really comfortable and actually keeps your feet warm (:

Reino shoes ( I call them töppöset in finnish :)




Mom bought me these because of my foot. I don't have any other shoes which would fit on my foot, so I'm  gonna walk around the Finland with these shoes about 4 weeks =) so people, please, do not stare my shoes when I'm around! : D 



I got a nice present (for no reason). It's from Ikea... Different colors of slippers! 4 pairs of them, they looks so soft and warm *-* red, grey and 2 pairs of white slippers :) Now my feet won't be frozen ever again! 



And if I get bored with one color, just a fast change to other color after that I can keep warming my toes :) One pair with these slippers will travel to Italy with me in a month :)

Not the day I planned...

This morning started well, I wasn't tired and actually I was pretty happy to go to school to see all my friends :) But when I enter a restaurant (where I'm on my training period) everything changed. 
I had to set the tales for 24 people who came to have lunch for the restaurant. We fixed it 4 times, cause always something wasn't good. Like knives wasn't one line and napkin was too close to chair and everything like that. In the end the teacher who was mocking all the time, accepted the tables and we started to pour water for glasses, customers was nearly there. And when they arrived, they told us that they don't wanna go to that room where we were set the tables, and we couldn't say no. We did that for nothing, and had to take them off. 
 The next task we got was that we had to plan drink list for Friday, there will be 200 people in the restaurant and we have made up some drinks for them, and they get to taste them. It took while to get it done, well we did it halfway first, the easiest part. And after that we did the more difficult part. And we finally got it done! We showed it to my teacher, and then she told that we have to do it again, cause we're gonna change the drinks. And she couldn't tell it when she told us to do that list. 
Now the school ended and I was happy to get home :) I slept for little while there and I rushed to bus to go to my greek lesson. Which I skipped in the end, I sent some stuff to my friend and went to library for little while.  From there I left to the bus which took me home, but when I was on my way to the bus, I hurt my ankle :/ I was walking home and I noticed my keys aren't in my handbag.. they were at home and of course my luck today, no one wasn't at home. I was sitting outside of the door for 30mins! After that mom saved me and came home.
 In the evening my sister pick me up and took me to a doctor... I really hope tomorrow will be way better day :) 

Just wanted to add this picture, cause I think it's really cute :3

No more shopping!

Today at school day went pretty fast, I had to be there just 4 hours and I really didn't do much. But after school I went to Helsinki. In same train was two of my friends, so I got little company for the way there :)
 In Helsinki I had to wait my mom to come there little bit over an hour, so I went to café to wait. When my mom arrived we went to Sokos and Stockmann. We spent way too much money, even we didn't buy much.

From Stockmann, we bought couple pieces for NominatioN bracelet. I got my chinese zodiac sign, Scimmia, monkey :)





Also my friend told me where I can buy these NominatioN pieces from Rome when I go there. Last time when I was there and tried to look for these, I didn't find them anywhere, everyone said they don't sell them. Same was in Florence. Well I was lucky there, I found one place where I was able to buy them, but the selection wasn't large. There was just few different.

These stuff came home with me; 

Neobio's organic lip balm. I really love the smell and the feeling what it gives your lips. It makes your lips so soft & kissable ;) 

Rimmel Match perfection face powder. It seems pretty good, at least if I compare it for the price. It was just little bit over 7€. 


All the stuff I bought today

And now I'm gonna be on shopping strike! I've spent way too much money lately. I gotta save money a bit, well try to survive with no money these last days of October and entire november! o.o

Cocktail Party

My friend has planned a cocktail party for several last week and now the party is finally here, well tomorrow it will be here :) This is great, cause something good happened to me because of this. I sold one bottle of white rum and one tequila bottle to her, so even I earned a bit ;)
 And tomorrow I'm able to dress up and look awesome : D There's all the dress codes and everything, they're trying to be elegant. 

  Some weeks ago I was at my other friend and there came some people and we were trying all kind of drinks and shots for this party. And we did find some good ones which my friend wants to serve in this party :) 


Kiss on the beach. This drink is one of my fave, it's not on the cocktail list in the party, but  it's really delicious ;)


Also tomorrow morning I'm going to visit in one baking shop which is here in Espoo. Confetti, the shop is full of everything cute stuff. Cookie cutters, colors with you can color doughs, creams etc. I'm going to buy those colors from there. After that I can try corset cookies! I really can't wait that, even I know they will fail at first time, but just try to practice the technic :)

Handicrafts

Some days ago I got pretty bored and I hadn't nothing to do so, I tried to little bit everything. And then I was looking for my nail polish boxes. I found them, I have two of them, and one is decorated and then I knew what I'm gonna do next, I decorated the other one too. I took some magazines and started to look for pictures I probably could use.
 The box is bought from Ikea. It's meant for cd covers, but It was perfect for this use too. It's just build up and then I took some glue and I started to make some handicrafts! (:


Here's the box in the end. White one turned to pretty nice one. I really like it myself, especially the high heel picture ;) It's not too full of anything and it's pretty simple. 


Here's on the left side is the cover of the old, first box I decorated some years ago

Back to Italy!


 I'm leaving to Italy for Christmas and for the New Year's eve with some of my friends, we booked flight about a month ago, and also we booked a room from a hostel, Ostello Palazzo Pierantoni

Some weeks ago we talked about this coming trip with my friend at school, and suddenly we got more people to go with us. 
There will be 4 of us now. So we got 2 people more. And now the duple room is way too small for all of us. And we knew there's one apartment in that hostel, cause I lived there with some people for 2 months last spring. So we sent an e-mail to hostel and asked would we be able to rent it. And this afternoon we've got a reply, and we can rent the apartment for 3 weeks! :)

Ben & Jerry's Ice cream ♡

We visited in one restaurant there, and all the walls were covered tiny pieces of papers where were written or drew something. Greetings or just anything what people has wanted to write. And in the end, before you left from the restaurant, they gave us tape  and you were able to tape your own piece of paper on the wall (:
