Latexmania BBQ party

I'm not working as a teacher today, so no Teacher Style photo untill tomorrow. Instead i will tell you about the party we had yesterday. We had a 10 years anniversary BBQ party with some friends. 10 years ago i was asked to model some Latex by a marvelous lady, Kirsi Nisonen. I said yes gladly. It was a start of a beautiful friendship and my loveaffair with latex clothing.

The location was delightful! It's called Teurastamo (slaughterhouse because of it's former purpose but these days it's a place for fun, friends, food and sharing, not death).

Me and Kirsi.

I'm wearing an amazing 80's does 40's/50's vintage dress from Ansa (where else! :)

Blue Moment by Photographer Jirina Alanko

 I was modeling for one of my absolutely favourite photographer Jirina Alanko a while ago and here are the result! I love her vision and how she sees me through her camera.

I'm wearing 80's leather jacket and skirt, 50's scarf, new glitter high heels and a huge rhinestone necklace from Ansa vintage and second hand.

These photos are part of the series "Blue Moment", for full set go to jirinaalanko.com

Hair experiments (40's to 80's!)

 Classic lazy hair day solution, 50's scarf and a swirl.

I've been really into 80's fashion, music and hairstyles lately.. We had a roof top photo shot with one of my favourite photographers Jirina Alanko (oh, she has a new website, check it out: www.jirinaalanko.com ) and i was wearing a fabulous 80's overall and Miia Magia Design mirror necklace.

One of my favourite styles, voluminous curls!

Scarfs are a very good idea when having a lazy hair day!

In the Bladerunner mood, inspired by Rachels and Carmens hairdos.

I know what you did last summer

Now when it's cold outside, it's fun to look at summer photos! Here's few memories i wanna share with you.

I attended few weddings. Here's wedding outfit #1

Spending time with friends...

And ofcourse, garden parties.

I also dressed up as a teacher

Wedding #2

I wrestled a bit..

..went for a picnic by the sea..

..cruised with Minna Parikka and friends. Here's me and Lumimarja.

One of my favourite things in summertime is going out with my boys.

I also spent lots of time at my atelier. One of my favourite places in the whole world. I really feel at home there. And i sometimes can almost feel the presence of Maria, the lady who opened that little hat shop back in 1942.
