It's getting warmer...

On a recent visit to the fleamarkets I found a cute jacket and a nice coat for spring (and summer).

The shoes I'm wearing are my new Aris Allen dancing shoes. 'Ive already tried them a couple of times and I must say that I notice a difference compared to wearing trainers...


The lining just feels so right!

As usual, the rest of the outfit is second hand, apart from the gloves which come from Citymarket. And the socks. I can't remember where I bought them though but somehow I doubt anybody is that interested in my socks anyway, right?

Aris Allens are the best. I think I own about 7 pairs so far... ;) I've been reading so much about your enthusiasm for dancing so I have to ask have you ever considered lindy hop or boogie woogie, these so called "vintage dances"? I don't know the exact area you're from, but I know that these two dances are quite widespread in Finland. So there's bound to be someone teaching those in your area too... It's a great way to combine good music and dancing. ;)

Una; I'd quite happily learn both lindy and boogie and jive and tango and... :) Thing is, I wanna do it with my own partner, and he's only really interested in lava-dancing (at the moment at least)...

We live near Kokkola, so there is a chance someone might teach it around here. The next problem (big one) is that we both work shifts. He works evenings every other week, I work evenings every three weeks. Complicates things... :(

Härliga jackfynd! Kappan var helt underbar, rött med leopardfoder, kan det bli bättre? =)

LOL! Jag har ett par exakt likadana Aris Allan, men med en vit kant högst upp! Väldigt sköna, och så mycket bättre med sula avsedd att dansas på. I längden så handlar det ju inte bara om att dansen flyter bättre, utan främst om att inte skada knäna. Hoppas du får mycket nöje av dina nya skor!

Erika; Tack, det hoppas jag också! Kul att du har likadana, jag vågar ju hoppas att jag gjort ett bra val nu iaf :)
