Paris and New Hair!

Hello everyone, once again I have been neglecting my blogging duties and have just been generally lazy as hell. (I leave for South America next week and I am sooooo nervous and unprepared)

Two weekends ago I went to Paris at the end of Men's fashion week.
The weather was soooo terrible! It was during the heavy snow storm we had in northern Europe and the Eurostar was delayed by 3 hours so the travelling was horrible. 
Unfortunately I didn't take many photos but here are all the good ones :)

Amazing Japanese style lobster


I met up with my friend Aurore who used to work in my old school and taught me a lot about French fashion History (and the technical vocab) It was so nice to be able to talk in French properly with a French person! Sorry about the quality of this pic.

Pretty sure my hair is alive.


It was such an amazing weekend and I can't wait to go back and spend some proper time in Paris! Paris has a lot of faults but I've really started to see its good side and I can't wait to explore more of it. 

In other news I had my hair cut! I really really wanted GD's salt and pepper hair with the short back and sides but because Argentina (South America in general) isn't the safest of places, my family have warned me not to dye my hair and be very careful with the way I dress so I had to go for a more toned down look. These are the two photos I showed my hairdresser.





I asked for it to be as short as possible so this cut can last me as long as possible while I'm in Argentina. Anya also wanted to make the fringe more choppy. I don't think it's exactly GD but I'm getting used to it and starting to really love it! Anya laughed and said I actually look like a boy this time! :D
(p.s. thats my new Jeremy Scott x Adidas top)

Bad front camera selfie, I look like an alien!!!!

Also I've been doing a lot of cooking recently as my mum has been quite ill, here is some Black Olive, Sun-dried tomato and Anchovy bread I made for my sisters upcoming 16th b-day party :)
Sorry this post was so picture heavy with no real content but I'm meant to be packing for Argentina, packing up my entire room for a potential house move, cooking food and cleaning the entire house and I have to walk my dog so ... I'm quite busy! 

I've also started writing several posts about REAL subjects for once and not just photos and my boring life updates. I'm quite excited about having some serious content on here for once. 
Also expect my first post from Argentina at the end of next week! (OMG OMG OMG IT'S SO CLOSE AND I AM SO NOT READY PLEASE HELP ME!) I'm really looking forward to it being summer though! South American beaches and 40 degrees and sexy tanned people everywhere sounds quite nice right now! :P 

I hope you are all having a good day, Tobi xxx

(oh I almost forgot, having a fabulous textiles play date/drunken sleepover with my fabulous Lucinda early next week as a mini good bye England party so hopefully I will have some fun stuff to post from that as well)

New hair!

Hello my lovelies, a few days ago I had my hair cut. I've been psyching myself up for it for a while now. I normally have a big hair change every couple of months and this cut was a little overdue. As always, I spent a couple of weeks collecting inspiration pictures. I wasn't too sure what I wanted to do with my hair but I was excited about exploring shorter hair styles now as I haven't really had "short" hair since I was about 14. Here is my mood board that I presented to my hair dresser.


The two images we decided on in the end were...


So here we go!





Tah dah!

After having my hair cut I met with my lovely friend Charly for a Coffee and a chat, hopefully next week when I am in London we are going to go see The Lion King together.


I had a Praline Mocha from Starbucks ... it was disgusting!

Please excuse this derpy picture of me. It was the only non blurry outfit pic we took. On Monday I go back to London for the week to party with Jami and Emilia so expect lots of fun fabulous, party, fashion and touristy posts. Tobi x

Grown up and back in Finland!

It's official! I am now old. This month has been full of big changes and scary decisions but I feel like things are now on the right track and I am growing up. When I turned 18 I thought it was time for a bit of a change so I cut my hair and stopped wearing eye make-up like I used to. Let me know what you all think! I think it makes me look older and suits me better.

I had a very emotional last few days in England and I am already missing home and missing English things. My mum cried for four hours when I left and I had to stop myself crying at the airport but what I miss most right now is proper fish and chips and English tea!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mummy if you are reading this can you send me some tea :D 

On my last day in England my sister and I took these photos as our goodbye photos x
When I arrived Alex and Tuomas were waiting for me and we went out for a drink phone shopping. As you can see it went well but unfortunately Golden Flake bar didn't have any phones.



I'm sorry that Alex was too lazy to send me his photos without the watermark!
Oona and I getting ready to go out x


and then the end result, hangover pizza in the park! That was the quickest I have ever eaten a whole pizza. Olen laski!

Okay this was just a quick post to say that I am in Finland, I promise I will post some more interesting stuff soon. I hope the bad weather and start of school isn't making everyone depressed!

New hair, Jewerich lashes, more gets and summer hair inspo!

Okay, another little update already! I dyed my hair with the help of my scary sister (she's a moody bitch) My roots were totally horrendous and while I liked my old two tone, the trend seems to have passed and mine had definitely grown out. I was debating between going blonde or going for a light brown which seems to be popular amongst gyaruo at the moment. In the end I chose blonde just because I haven't been blonde in a very long time. (good reason)

I made this stupid gif of us dying my hair and my eyebrows. Sorry I look so ugly! 

Here are a few photos of me doing a more traditional gyaruo look with my new hair colour. I think I went a bit too light because it makes my eyes a bit dark and creepy. 

Why does my face look so ugly?!
