I'm trying to find my way

Hi guys, sorry I haven't posted anything in ages but I've been busy. Okey, not really. But I got new job and Bastian was here and...endless excuses! Anyway, now I'm here and I'm going to tell you something about me. As you may know, I'm short (around 5'1") and finding clothes that fit is sometimes almost impossible. Couple of months ago my friend told me about this awesome site. Before entering that site I had no idea what my body shapy was, what colours suit me or what my face shape was. Maybe it was good, maybe not. Either way now I know those things and it's easier to decide what to wear or buy. So I have round face, rectangular body and my colour palette is Soft Summer. Before this I was so interested in fashion but now that I know what suits me, I also care about it more.

I still do have a problem with finding clothes small enough. Shortening hemlines isn't my favorite past time, you know. Thank god I live in UK now and we have stores that sell petite fashion (e.g. Miss Selfridge's). I've also learned to love Gap jeans which is good because Gap sells also short leg jeans. I couldn't live without those! Now I sound like some kind of paid blogger but I'm not. So I'm just telling how I feel and although I wouldn't mind if they paid me for doing so, they don't.

Susie, are you happy now?

In the middle of chaos

Now I know what chaos is. After seeing what those riots did to this city I felt so bad. Why did they have to destroy everything? I cannot understand the point behind all that violence. Maybe it is not my job to judge other people but my opinion is if there was a reason for the riots (and I believe there was), it didn't become clear. There are other, much efficient ways, to make people listen to what you have to say.

My next post will be the Summer Playlist: Finnish Edition. I try to post it tomorrow but I won't promise anything. I might be busy with other stuff. ;)

Piccadilly Line takes me home

Getting lost in London is the best way to get to know it. So I got lost, many times. After I found myself at Starbucks drinking latte, I knew I would absolutely love living here. Here are some photos I took today. Sorry about the quality! I used my Canon Ixus 105 instead of my systen camera which would've been better. Anyways here's what I saw.






Very original, aren't they? Tower Bridge, The Tower and post box. Other pictures weren't publish-worthy. :)

Tomorrow I will unpack some of the book boxes and learn how to use the dvd-player. Don't know if I have time to do anything else. ;D Only two weeks till Bastian brings Flow here! And of course it's awesome to see Bastian too. I miss ya! <3
