Tässä vielä lanseerausjuhlien asuni tarkemmin katsottuna. Yleensä välttelen perinteisiä pikkumustia, mutta tässä Dieselin mekossa oli niin paljon eloa roikkuvien hapsujen ja röpöleisen helman myötä. Siinä oli juuri tarvittava määrä "meininkiä", että tuntui ihan omalta päällä. En tunne itseäni yhtään mukavaksi kireissä pikkumekoissa ja korkkareissa. En itseasiassa tunne oloani mukavaksi myöskään perinteisissä avokkaissa, vaikka sellaiset minun tulisi kyllä ehdottomasti lisätä kenkäkaappiini. Kaipaan perinteisiä avokkaita, jotka voisi yhdistää esimerkiksi farkkujen kanssa! En ole vielä vaan löytänyt sitä täydellistä paria. Nämä Balenciagan kengät ovat palvelleet minua ainakin uskollisesti jo useissa tapahtumissa! Niissä on niin älyttömän mukava lesti, että en koskaan tarvitse mitään vaihtokenkiä mukaan. Jaksan seisoskella niillä tuntikausia. Ehdottomati parhaat "tilaisuuskenkäni". Välillä kannattaa siis panostaa laatuun jos olet mukavuudenhaluinen ihminen. Minä ainakin olen!

//Here is my launch party outfit up close. I'm usually not the type to go with the little black dress, but this Diesel dress was different. It had a nice egde to it and it was super comfortable to wear! I can't go out in a tight dress and heels. Just doesn't feel right. Also these Balenciaga shoes have become my favorite event pair. They are so freakin comfortable that I can walk around in them for hours! Sometimes it's better to invest in quality. I wear these shoes all the time just because my feet love them.

Rakastan näitä rakkauslukkoja, joita näkee välillä kiinnitettynä siltoihin. Sunnuntain kunniaksi liitän näiden kuvien yhteyteen yhden lempi tekstini rakkaudesta, jonka on kirjoittanut Bob Marley.

// I love these love locks you see from time to time. In honor of this beautiful sunday I would like to post this beautiful text written by Bob Morley about love.

“Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful.

There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face.

In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible.

You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”
