Bedtime accessories, Sleep mask

Sleep mask is a real classic. Here's Audrey as Holly Golightly wearing a very cute sleep mask in "Breakfast at Tiffany's"

Dita for Moschino

This one i would love to have! MJ Dangerous sleep mask! That one is sadly out of stock at the moment (but you can get a White Eyes mask...)

Cat Eye glasses sleep mask, pretty funny idea. And Rhinestones!

But this mask is my #1 favourite, hahaha!

My friend Mirkka send me a message the other day and said that she has something for me. It was this cool sleep mask! When i first saw it i thought that "those eyes look familiar somehow...". I turned out that they are my eyes! I was modeling for Mirkka few years back and she desided to use my eyes from one of the pics for the mask.

I was really honoured :D

And now i can pretend to be awake while sleeping!

Sunday, Hat Club, museum, dumpster diving

I'm wearing:

Vintage hat

vintage sweater

second hand skirt

50s handbag

This month our Hat Club went to the National Museum of Finland.

 The exhibition "Faithful friends-Royal dogs and horses"was lots of fun! You know the kind of exhibitions that are for the whole family, where you can do things, not just look at things. There were pieces of a knights armor you could try on...

 ..and historical riding costumes! I also tried out the saddle for ladies.

 A funny tall-case clock

 You might think these are some old Chinese works of art, but they are from Finland..

 Chandelier in the Lutheran church exhibition

 Madonna

 Marvelous

And yes, dumpster diving!  Here's just some of the clothes after washing. We made really great finds! We had bags filled with 20s-30s-40s dresses, coats, suits, hats... An old (about 90-years old) lady died and they emptied the cellar. And all those wondeful dresses were about to go to the dump!

I have beautiful dresses for next summer, 40s beach wear and amazing 30s evening gowns. I'l be posting pics later...
