Blue Eye'd Jacks Joint

We had a video shoot with Oona and some other guys. The theme was 30's-40's speakeasy, sailor bar. Oona was wearing my 30's style sequin hat. I also was one of the extras on the video, but my main task was to do all the hairdos for the ladies on the video. I'm not a hairdresser, but i have quite a lot of experience when it comes to vintage style hair.

Thats me looking funny.

Oona <3

This picture was taken before the shoot. One of the ladies still has rollers on..

The set was very nice!

Here we all are! Smile!

Here's few other styles for Oona that i've done. These pictures were taken for her demo cd cover. Make-up Miia Magia, Photos Riku Ryynänen.

Ofelia Market

Day 1

I know, i know.. These events are ancient history, but i didn't have time to post these photos earlier..

I was wearing one of my favourite dresses. Notice that adorable little owl, made by my friend Sally Vanilla. Jacket, stockings, bag: vintage. Shoes, dress, cardigan: second hand. Bow by me.


Day one was busy, which was nice.


My friend Oona Kapari minutes before her show. (Hat, hair and bow made by me.)

I had a quick brunch with Liisa Jokinen that day. She was writing an article about styles and wanted to interview me. That story in not out till next year, but in the mean while you should check out another project by Liisa Jokinen and Sampo Karjalainen called Hel Looks. Well, most of you are probably familiar with that phenomenon...
We wen to a place called Kaartintupa. It's a very cozy place with amazing food, good music (like Frank Sinatra, Olavi Virta and Annikki Tähti), lovable staff and reasonable prices.

Back in Gloria.

Here's Tyra from Punavuoren Putiikki. I love Tyras earrings, i already have three pairs.

Here's the lovely owner of the "Hoochie Mama Jane", a lovely vintage boutique thats really worth visiting.

After a busy day, i treated myself with a lovely nepalese dinner. Nam!

Day 2

Lady in red. That small black 40's handbag i bought the day before. Only 5 e!

Dress and purse: vintage. Cardigan, shoes, belt, haircomb second hand.

This brooch is the cutest thing i bought from Ofelia Market! I love it! I wear it every day. It's made by Iida Hämäläinen. It says "Eternal love" and that skeleton on the right has a small blue bow tie. Cute!

Day two was busy too...

I had a small hat workshop on both days, here's my pupils on day two. I've never done anything like that, but it was fun. And some of the hats ( or more likely hair accessories) were really nice.

One of my pupils with nearly finished piece.
My youngest pupil! :D She really made that herself!

Busy, busy, busy...!

Hey Hepcats!
I'm sorry that i haven't been updating my blog in days, but thats just because i've been insanely busy! The Ofelia Market is just around the corner and the movie Iron Sky is gonna keep me super busy for the next few months. If you have no clue of what i'm talking about, take a look at this (yep, i made those costumes :)!



I hope to see many of you in Gloria this weekend! <3
My Friend Oona (who was actually named after Oona Chaplin!) is performing there. She's great, but if you don't believe me, you can listen to her songs in myspace. This pic below is from Oona's photo shoot. We had our lovely team together again : Make-up Miia Magia/Photos Riku R./Hair and style Fiona Timantti. There's more photos in Oona's blog in myspace (and some funny 'behind the scenes pics' as well..).



And don't forget the Ofelia Peek-A-Boo party on friday! You'll get the chance to see TV OFF live! They are very busy these days, traveling all over europe...

Here's Sara from TV OFF, the Petit Girl with an Amazing Voice! (And she's wearin the bynny hat i made especially for her<3)
