OOTD: Autumn lethargy

The dark look is made for this weather, so I'm getting my goth vibe on recently.
All of these items are from Zaful.
The jacket had a weird smell when I first opened the package, but it has since faded.
The lace bodysuit is super sexy, but it's definitely made for a shorter torso. I'm 5 foot 6 and I had to make some adjustments. Luckily I'm generally OK with using a needle and a thread.

My favorite piece here is definitely the velvet choker, it's so pretty!
PU Jacket - Zaful
Lace bodysuit - Zaful
Velvet necklace - Zaful

I've been cooking some delicious vegan meals lately...
These zucchini burgers turned out just unbelievable. And super easy to make: I just shredded a zucchini, an onion, 2-3 garlic cloves, a bit of ginger and some gram flour and oat flakes... Spice it up with cumin, thyme, turmeric and oregano, a bit of salt and voilá!

And an autumn special - fresh apples and plums with berry-cacao nicecream with peanut butter, coconut shreds and blackberries. To die for!

lush /// Kloogaranna

I have a hazy summer memory of Klooga beach as an idyllic summer getaway location and riding a sweaty noisy crammed train to get there... Well, in 2016 it is quite different, with a near-forlorn post-Soviet atmosphere, almost no people, lush green nature and forest floors full of ripe blueberries. And the trains are new, fast and quite empty.
We spent a warm Sunday there, then had heavenly falafels at Vapiano and our night ended with Swiss Army Man - a beautifully crafted cinematic burst of imagination filled all things absurd, morbid, lively, obnoxious, beautiful.

Asos Eco Edit style inspo

I'm still in the refreshing spring fashion mood and this time I'm showing you my little style inspiration clips from Asos Eco Edit. I've been webshopping at Asos for years now and Eco Edit is their collection of eco-friendly sustainable fashion. So cool!
A lot of the clothing items there are vegan, but most of the boots, bags and belts are geniune leather unfortunately. I particularly liked some leather harnesses there, so I hope they'll have vegan leather options available soon.

Nasty Gal style board

Hiya, I'm back with a wishlist/style board for this spring. I'm planning to do more of these, but I'll start with Nasty Gal, since I always find cool items on their site. And yes, I am aware of the controversy around the brand and the way they treat their employees - it's very frustrating and I'm not sure I'll buy from them again (plus the shipping to Estonia is so expensive, the last time I ordered from them I actually paid more for shipping + tax than the three products I ordered... madness!), so this is just for inspiration. I also plan to show more ethical/sustainable fashion brands from now own. I've been eating a plant-based diet for half a year now and I'm trying to be more concious in all my choices, including fashion. This board does not feature leather/wool/silk or any other animal products :)
Most of the items are black as usual... I just like it best and after all, this here is just a reflection of my own taste.

If I had to pick my favorite items from here, they'd be the YRU Laso Vegan Boots, cause they're so sexy and I'm obsessing over the more masculine western style right now. And vegan, yay!

And secondly, the After Party Vintage Hillary Cropped Jacket. This is a surprising choice for me (it's not black omg + I usually don't like denim jackets too much), but I'm so digging the shredded hem, the vintage style and wide fit.

Birthday in Milan

It was my birthday a few days ago and Anders took me to a surprise trip to Milan... I knew we where going somewhere, but I literally found out the destination at the airport. I'm still totally mesmerized.
I had always imagined Milan to be a trendy city with high-end boutiques and brand shops and that part of it is defintely there, but there is so much more... beautiful architecture and romantic narrow streets, but also heavy contrasts - the world's most expensive brand stores and just a few meters away there are people sleeping under rugs. 
But overall I really liked the people and how they looked. Most people have really good taste and there's a scent of an old-school elegance that you don't see that much in Nordic countries. Many older people have super stylish all-black outfits and apparently they don't think it's a grim look, and that's cool. They know how to style a scarf or a cravat or a fedora... And the shoes! Most people wear beautiful shoes, which was so good to see... Where I'm from almost everybody is wearing sneakers or some sort of running shoes nowadays... I understand that they're comfortable and all that, but I'm just not a big fan of the look. Especially sneakers paired up with a trench coat... ugh.
Here is the photo flow.










Trees on roof tops is a thing there. Loving it!
