today's obsession: long sheer cardigans

i want to buy a few light-weight cardigans for summer...preferably sheer, neutral-colored and the longer the better! they're so boho and cool.

possible diy?

Photobucket

i'm head over heels in love with these shoes. i pay a visit to the topshop website 2-3 times a day to see if they're still there. i want them so bad :(
i hope they're still gonna be there in 2 weeks when i visit london...so fingers crossed! or maybe i should consider buying some cheap sneakers from h&m and sewing a zillion sequins on it...
what do you think?

7 random facts

sorry for bad blogging for the last couple of days, either my internet was down or my computer failed to do what i wanted, it's being reinstalled now so i can't guarantee anything...

so i got this award from a few of you which really is an honor, i never would have thought that anyone would be interested in the stuff that i post. so thanks a lot to all of you very much for following me!

so here's what you've requested - 7 random facts about me:

1. one of my favourite memories ever is getting drunk at the end of high school and dancing to this song with my friends on weekends. i remember when the singer sang the part 'big black boots long brown hair' i liked to think that it was written about me - lol. so that's where the name of the blog comes from.

2. i speak finnish. i had to study it in high school and although my finnish is not as good as it used to be i try to practice it as much as i can. my dream is to live in finland one day.

3. every time i see ugg boots or over-the-knee boots on the street i feel like screaming. i think there's really no need to explain why i hate the uggs...and the over-the-knees are just plain boring, i mean they might have been cool 3 years ago, when i bought mine, but not anymore :S same goes for those leather aviator jackets...

4. my favourite fashion mag is vogue uk.

5. my biggest fear is that i'll never be able to do what i'm really interested in and i end up working at an office from 9 to 5 and doing something totally 'uncreative'.

6.when i was a little girl i wanted to become a ballet dancer. i even trained for a while, but i got bored with it and quit.

7. today is my birthday yaaaaay :)
