London diary, day 3

New week, new beginning! I just love Mondays
as crazy as that might sound to you. :)
I do still have this one photo diary from London left
to share with you and then the new outfit post is finally
coming too! We've been shooting the whole London trip,
so if there's enough of good material, I'll share that video
with you. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be
a good quality material, because I've been wanting to put
up a video for a quite some time now. I think that occasional
videos would be a nice addition to my blog.
Let me know what you think about this!?

Here're the final photos from my super short visit to London.
I have loved being there and can't wait to go back sometime
next year again.

London diary, day 2

Hello my dear readers!
I hope that you're having a good and ( hungover free )
Sunday morning! I'm having a bitter-sweet moment since
my mini getaway to London has come to an end and I would
SO love to stay here much longer, but I'm also happy to leave
because I know that there's still so much to see and do next time
I come back to London. That's something I love about short trips,
you just don't have time to do everything and see everything you'd
want to ( esp. if you're travelling with children ) but it's always exciting
to come back again so that you can do/ see what you haven't managed to
previously!

Without further rambling, I'd like to show you another photo roundup
of day 2 in London. I'm truly grateful for every single thing I got to see,
experience and every person I've met on this trip, it was a blast.
I will still have one more mini photo diary from day 3, so stay tuned for that.

Taking the cab to Soho and admiring beautiful London
scenery on the way!




Le Pain Quotidian - our favourite breakfast stop every time when 
we travel abroad! Our favourite one in London is 
in Soho, on Great Marlborough St. 




Quick stop at Liberty to stock up on some 
beauty products as well as these amazing Dyptique candles



Christmas has arrived to Carnaby St.



We share love for food and we Instagram it :D
At Maze Grill by Gordon Ramsay





We were so lucky that we got a chance to see 
some live action in the kitchen and meet the main 
chef! Wow! I was so impressed!





We have wrapped up the day 2 with some Christmas gifts 
shopping at Westfield shopping mall in Shepherds Bush. 
Look at these amazing Christmas lights/ decorations!!

London trip, day 1

So, that went well then... I was planning to put up an
outfit post yesterday morning before taking off to the
airport, but that was a total fail! You know that moment,
I mean, you MUST have had this at least once happen to you,
when you need your electronics to work the most and they
totally "betray" you! My dear laptop decided to act up and
freeze and then I had to restart it on force quit and when I've
put it on again, it totally swiped away my outfit photos and
I'm not enough of Mac wizard to have been able to find them again.
Total bummer... I really loved the photos and the outfit that I was
wearing. I will have to retake the photos once I'm back to Helsinki.

Anyway... I'm in beautiful London and I'm incredibly happy and
thankful for having a chance to visit this city for the 3rd time this year.
I always feel alive here and could be on the go for hours without
feeling tired or something...
That's what I actually did yesterday and that's what I'll do today as well. :)

Here's a photo diary for you my dear readers!
Meet the London city through my eyes!

Starting my trip at the Helsinki airport. 
I found this sleigh to be a rather cool "prop" :)



These mini sofas, walls and dimmed lights somehow 
reminded me of Twin Peaks ( huge fan ) and 
I just had to take a photo here :)




Visiting Harrods is always such a treat! 
I feel as if I'm in some kind of amusement park + museum :D



Their Food Hall is always a must visit for me!




Visiting Laduree cafe and trying out new cakes 
and macaroons is quite obligatory too! :)



Beautiful Christmas display windows 
at Harrods



Beautiful streets of London!






Back at Yauatcha, the best Chinese 
restaurant I've ever been to. Always a must visit spot
when in London!



Riding back to the hotel after a long day...

Outfit post - Cold

Yep my dear readers, just like the title says,
these outfit photos were snapped yesterday morning
and it was freezing cold! I have no idea how I've endured
to pose and not look as if I'm 100% in pain ( I hope I don't look
like that on your screens :D ).

However, if we disregard the whole "cold" story, then I can
say that I've had pretty lovely weekend!
We did lots of Christmas gifts shopping, we've been hanging
out with our friends, we have baked some nice gingerbread
cupcakes and watched couple of episodes of "Californication"
(I'm soooo behind on the episodes/seasons).

Today will be another typical Monday with lots of work, errands
and some serious clothes washing/ drying/ ironing since we're all
leaving for London in 3 days.
Yaaaay!! I can't even say how excited I am about that!! It should
be a lot of fun and I'll try to shoot daily - travel vlogs for you my
dear readers, but I don't want to promise anything in case that it
doesn't happen.

Before I end this post, I'd like to draw your attention to my new pair
of sneakers! I got them from Luxbag store in my city, Helsinki and
they were love at first sight. I simply had to have this amazing pair
of shoes as they're of high quality, real leather and so comfy!
Good investment is a good investment, even if we're talking about a
pair of sneakers.

Have a great 1st day of December everybody!!!

I'm wearing: Sneakers & bag - Givenchy, Coat & scarf - Burberry,
Earrings - HOH1960, Plaid shirt - Esprit, Sweatshirt - Rag&Bone,
Jeans - Diesel, Bracelet - Balenciaga
