My favourite skirt... and when the weather was still on my side. I`m terrible at dressing according to weather.

T-shirt: Karen Millen
Skirt: Mohito
Shoes: Charles & Keith (one of the comfiest pair I own)

Love

Just pure love for this dress. And also the great summer lighting on these pictures. Just so much love. This dress is another creation of Liina Stein and one of my ultimate favourites. Perfect for summer like ours when it`s a bit chilly but you still want to wear a dress... my solution is always maxi! Plus the colours on this one just make you happy. And endless compliments flowing in.



Cat with no name

A house is not a home without a cat, right?! Very true in my case. And as much as I did love the fur-and sand-free home.... nothing beats a little fur-love. So with summer ending and me spending more and more time at home, the time was right to get a new family member. And as soon as I saw her, I knew, she was my cat. And she brings so much joy with her great personality. Great little character and a purr-ball! But the trouble is... she still has`nt got a name. I was sure I want a black persian and I would name her/him Merlot. But now I have her... she does`nt look like Merlot at all. So, if you have any ideas, I am all ears!

Hapsal Dietrich

The upcoming weekends weather is promising to be pretty nice, so my suggestion is to grab some friends and drive out of town. At least that`s what I like to do when I have a free weekend. And we did exactly that some time ago. A short day-trip to Haapsalu. Must love that little town. Beautiful, peaceful and harmonious. Also, many great restaurants there. So here is a suggestion to you. They are closing for the winter so this week/weekend is the last chance of visiting them. And Hapsal Dietrich is worth a visit. When we went there, we still got to sit outside on the terrace, so a perfect end to the summer. The service is very friendly and the food is delicious and very reasonably priced.

Pulled pork with white radish, cabbage, yogurt, parsnip (9 eur). The first bites were oh so yum, but halfway through I started missing something, I don`t know exactly what, was it potatoes or something else but the flavour combination got tiring, But all in all still delicious.



Fresh fish of the day (7,50 eur). Very very delicious!

Mussels with white wine and garlic (9 eur). Also very good, I am a huge mussels fan and this was very good. We also had beef tartare and it was also delicious. So not a single bad word about the food!

My good company. Just had to share this picture because of the emotions. My girls!

Black. Just perfect black.

No matter what colours I may wear, black is and always will be my first and only love. I am not one of those who believes it`s boring. To me it is classy, sexy and always elegant. And well, if it`s a black maxi dress with pleats and an open back... I was hooked the minute I tried it on. I bought it from Mango years ago but I think it is still one of my favourite items in my evergrowing closet. And allthough, thanks to the lipstick and cross necklace I look like some kind of an evil priest, I still love it. And talking about this lipstick, it`s from H&M and I love it! It´s long-lasting and super silky and smooth.

Something from Riga

I am a sucker for traveling. But then again who is`nt, right?! Even looking at these pictures taken in Riga makes me miss it. Missing Riga and missing the fun times with my girls. Must start planning something soon. I am craving for New York, Italy or somewhere warm and exotic.

Pure magic

As soon as I did the fitting for that Liina Stein show, I knew I was doomed. I put it on and I just knew that it was mine. I did love the pink version slightly bit more but it was sold straight after the show, so the purple one was an alternative. And a good one! I also struggled with the idea of where to wear this beauty, as all my friends told that they would never allow me to their wedding in that dress. But I have worn it already twice and it is an investment piece that will last a lifetime, so money well spent!

Sunshine hippie

I think you have already figured out that my love for maxi dresses is huge. So here is another one. I kind of miss wearing black already. But I guess in my heart I`m not ready to give up on summer yet. Thankfully the weather agrees as it is quite warm still. I gotta admit though, that I am loving this autumn feeling in the air. Staying at home watching movies and reading books through the whole weekend sounds pretty perfect to me.
My talented Telle wanted to test out some new make-up stuff, so I must thank her for making me look descent.

Tuljak

Cheers to all the food lovers. I love going out to eat (don`t get me wrong, I love home made food just as much but since I`m living alone at the moment, eating out happens more often, and is probably cheaper too. Not in this case though). Especially if it is such a nice place as Tuljak. Recently opened, it is definitely a must. Starting with the excellent service, beautiful location (damn I did`nt go there sooner, when the terrace would have been oh-so-perfect) and veryvery good food!

The interior is very nice and cozy. And like I said, the service was excellent. Loved every minut of the 2 hours spent there. Definitely going back soon to try other things on the menu aswell.

Our snacks from left to right: Green mussels (6 eur), Josper`s Oysters (15eur) and smoked ham with peanut mustard (6ur). Smoked ham was by far my favourite, it just melts in your mouth. And together with the peanut mustard and onions... Simple, but amazing! The oysters were another great surprise (I`m not a big fan of oysters to begin with) but they were cooked, so they were actually very tasty to me. But I think to a person who loves them the way they are, it might not taste so good.



A very happy girl at dinner looking weird and all.

Atlantic cod (18eur). Excellent! Just..yes, I have no words. Perfectly cooked and sooo delicious!

Octopus (18) with risotto. Again, a great choice. Loved every bite of it.

Eclair (6) with chanterreles, caramel sauce and chocolate. Decided to try something interesting for a change. My first choice would have been the tiramisu, which is said to be the most popular out of the desserts. At first, I was a little intimidated by the chanterelles but with no need. They actually gave a very nice flavour to the whole thing. Although I must say, to me the eclair seemed a little too dry.

Strawberries (6eur) with curd cream and mint. Seemed a bit boring choice to me, when my dinner date ordered it, but boy, was I wrong. Super creamy and super delicious.

Like I said... in the summer, on the terrace... amazing views!

Happy 1st of September

Happy 1st of September to you! It almost feels like the 1st day of January, lot`s of new beginnings and new vibes and energy.

More of this amazingness with the Liina Stein dress will follow.
