New year, old pictures

A while back when me and Mr. Kitten went on our extended weekend trip to Turku, I found some old photographs in a fleamarket that I thought I'd share with you;




I just love the hair in these pictures! More pics to follow another day...

So, how's the new year been so far? Me, I have finished knitting one leg warmer and the other one is coming along shortly, I'm also crocheting a hat! Oh, and I went to my cousin's wedding wearing this dress and a fascinator I made just hours before the wedding (which is why there was no time to take any outfit pictures, sorry!). Tomorrow I've got the day off so hopefully I'll have the time and light to take some photos of my recent creations...

First 40's-style hairdo attempt

Yesterday my H&M package arrived in the post and I was pretty exited. But then I remembered that I only ordered some boring basics in boring basic colours. I am way to sensible when bying new clothes, always thinking about what other pieces of clothing it will match and how "timeless" it is, in other words, most of the stuff is pretty basic.

Anyway, here I'm wearing my new and very exiting gray tights. Ehem. Also a black skirt and top, second hand, and the vest I bought at the Juthbacka market. Shoes are my grandmothers old and the 8mm camera belonged to my grand-dad until I um, borrowed it.

Inspired by Miriam I spent an hour trying to get an acceptable looking hairdo. I kinda like it, even though it didn't turn out exactly how she made it. My hair is a bit too short for this aswell so I improvised a bit and made my own rat-thingy out of some foam hair-curlers. Not too bad for a first timer eyh? Still could use a bit more practice though.

On a different subject, I now have only one day left at my cleaning job! How strange. I then have two days off to recover before my new job starts. On my first day in between jobs I've booked myself an appointment for a massage to really get the cleaning out of my system, hah. Tidying my flat won't feel like such a massive task anymore when I'm used to cleaning for 6-7 hours a day...
