It happened to me again... Life got on the way of blogging. There are so many fun, sweet, touching, hilarious photos and moments I'd like to share with you, starting with everything that happened during the London Fashion Week... But there has been so much going on that I find it hard to keep up with my life. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining...  That's just the say I love it. So, this gorgeous red veil leads to the entrance of the Valentino exhibition at Somerset House, the heart of the Fashion Week. * * Today's actually the last chance to catch this exhibition! How fitting. So, anybody in London... A little tip for the day... Go see this one, and bring a good book to entertain you in the queue :). ~*♥*~

... here I come! Afternoon tea at a historic hotel frequented by Oscar Wilde, theatre, opera or musical, the Portobello market... I absolutely will experience all that, with every sense of my body. In addition to the beauty extravaganza that is the Fashion Week. London, take me. I'm ready. ~*♥*~

February is hugely busy month for a blogger... There are photoshoots, fashion shows, discussions with magazines, fittings with designers, advertising and media agencies... A launch of something mindblowingly beautiful, yet very hush-hush, in the cards... And of course, the main event of the season; the London Fashion Week. But don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. I'm loving every second of it. Yesterday, it was brainstorming at Godmother advertising with Godmother extraordinaire, Annika Di-Chiara, and the lady with magic on her fingertips; designer and artist Oona Elena Kassila. * We got even Lele thingking... The creative process absolutely requires cupcakes. * With a happy full tummy, the ideas just swing & fly... Barcelona Ateljé! Workshops! Goddess Dresses! The magic of Oona and Mo. The question of the day was: "What is your dream?" Once that's crystal clear, the rest will come. Sometimes through nights of no sleep, tears, self-doubt, even moments of despair. But it will come.

This is my very first Kristina Viirpalu dress, an absolute favorite. Perfect for any occasion; work, cafés, movies, heart-to-heart teabreak with a  friend... Hand woven of thick high-quality cotton, It's so soft and comfortable that I even wear it on airplanes. As all of Kristina's dresses, this too is a unique piece. * I love this bow... Detachable, it can be worn with other dresses - and turn them into statement pieces as well. The wonderfully talented Pipsa Lagus organized this photoshoot next to Kaivohuone on one particularly windy and drizzly day... We had a car running right next to us with the heating on at full force... Salvation. The meter maids happened to be making their rounds around the parking lot... In fact, I think they made several slow rounds, wondering how to react to what we were doing... And even a police car happened to drop by at the empty parking and made a little tour around us... But they all just gave us puzzled looks and let us go on about our business. Pipsa has that effect on people... Me, I just tend to get in trouble...

Checking the results of the day.... At the point when I started turning blue in the face, we shifted to photographing the Black Rose Wool Coat on top of this dress - not only beautiful but a highly convenient solution.

* Happy happy :). When I see this photo I still feel it in my bones how wonderfully warm it was, that moment. ~*♥*~

The magically talented Oona Kassila will design a dress for me... A custom order piece, to make me feel like a faery princess at the London Fashion Week next month. Just look at the loveliness she came up with! So off we went, hunting for the right fabrics, laces, pearls and silver chains... Such perfect ladytime ♥. Oona herself is a Bona Fide Faery Princess. Such a beautiful person, inside and out. Somehow, her loveliness is present in all her creations. When wearing her handmade treasures, I feel her softness, gentleness and sweetness all around. For the gloves, we'll use this French velvet in old rosa... Purrrrrrfect. Laces, laces and some more laces... UhHuh how difficult it was to rule some of these beauties out... x Now Oona has flown back to her ateljé in Barcelona... And I'm impatiently waiting for her to come back - she'll fly over for a fitting of my Bohemian Princess Rose Cradle dress. And I will show you the pictures... You can find Oona's dresses and Mo Puccino's Moonalia jewellery at Moonalia's etsy shop. They are handmade in heaven. ~*♥*~
