White and Red

I guess I can wrap up this year with finally posting these outfit pictures from earlier in December that I just never had time to post. Thats how you know Christmas time is super busy. The small breaks of time I have I used to to everything else not blog. Hopefully this New Year starting soon I'll have some more time to post and enjoy healthy living. You can note that we suddenly got a lot more snow than what these pictures reveal, but as I'm still not quite well I'm not taking the risk and wondering out into the wonderful winter wonderland we have here. Gosh I love that red scarf and white knit combo. Gotta wear it again soon. Now gonna head down to dinner and try to enjoy the evening. :)

Christmas time, where did you go?

Oh my gosh, its almost 2015! I know most bloggers are already focusing on other things and looking forward to the New Year, but I'm not. Mostly because I spent the entire Christmas time in a fever and still I'm not fully recovered. Yet I want to post about it as Christmas time is my favorite time of the year. The first two pictures are of Christmas Eve, I tried to take a outfit pic but I was so tired and red nosed that I chose just to display my shirt that I paired with black jeans and a santa claus hat. Now that there are three little kids in our Christmas celebrations, the amount of gifts has increased greatly but it makes Christmas Eve so magical. Watching the pure joy of children is just priceless. Before Christmas there was this TV show about Christmas lights in the US and families competing for a price. Well me and my mom might have gotten carried away with our lights this year, but those candy cane lights are just too cute! Earlier this fall I made some cakes with fondant icing and since we still had some left we used it to decorate our gingerbread house. The snowflake shapes are so cute. I tried out making a fondant snowman to stand in front of the house but he seems to be a little crooked. Maybe just like me. 




Okay so I found a picture of myself on Christmas Eve, with a red nose and dark under eyes. haha Hope you guys enjoy :)

Red Snow Globetrotter

Found this lovely nail polish that looks like snow and had to try it out. Also saw that there is such a color as Coca-Cola red, that would be so awesome for me. Too bad they were out of it. Don't you just hate it when the nail polish you wanted to use is so stuck that you can't open it. Then you spend the next hour to try to open it, just to find after a quick google search a two minute solution. The solution being so simple as just using a cup of hot water to submerse the nail polish bottle lid in the water and after two minutes it will open. Have to remember this for the next time but it just seems this red OPI color has gotten a tad too thick and doesn't spread evenly. Anyway this is only the first step of the nails I had planned. I'll be back with the finishing touches in a few days, when I have some more inspiration for writing a post. I hope.

Itsenäisyyspäivä

Today has been a real holiday, well all my days are kinda like a holiday. Independence day is usually spent relaxing, eating and watching the presidential party broadcast (which is a Finnish equivalent to the Oscars). Earlier today it was snowing quite a lot so we decided to take a little stroll in the winter wonderland. I thought it would be a great time to break out my new lovely red scarf, which has many bloggers seem to have as well just in different colors. I had a though time choosing a color for myself but I figured red would be a nice change for me. I didn't realize that it would for some reason look odd in these pictures with that grainy green spots. The more I look at that pic the more mad I get. I tried to fix it and thought I succeeded but seems its still grainy. Oh well you can't win everyday. Haha. It seems the graininess theme is on all my pictures where ever there is red. Well hope you guys still enjoy these pics.

Everyday...

Yaay, it's my favorite time of the year! Christmas is almost around the corner. Though I started decorating already in November but since my time is limited during the day I just had to take the advantage early on. Just as with getting Christmas gifts. Anyway just popping in to quickly post some everyday pics. Had some frozen macarons, they were nice but I should try to make some on my own.
