Say hi to Bon Bon.. she's been my baby for my entire childhood and I can not believe she hasn't appeared the blog until now!!

when I was 10 my dad made the mistake of jokingly promising me a puppy if I had the cash for one.  So started a year of selling, saving and begging until I finally had enough money for my own little cockerspaniel... I only get to see Bon Bon when I visit finland, so sadly not very often. I couldn't resist including her in the photos, especially in her overgrown messy hair-do, we totally match!

I wore a silk dress is by shakuhachi from the fantastic Bona Drag, who never fails to impress me with their amazing choice of collections.

ps. Bona Drag has been kind enough to offer you all 25 % off the ENTIRE SITE on until wednesday morning! Just enter the code 'Hallowaukee' at checkout.

A Studded Sunday Brunch










(Stylists Own studded blouse, J Brand exclusive color jeans, "The Bowery" Rebecca Minkoff for Vogue Eyewear/CFDA limited edition sunglasses (available at Sunglass Hut), Rebecca Minkoff bag, Dolce Vita shoes, Jewelmint necklace)

Sundays in NYC might be my favorite. What I noticed most is that New Yorkers walk A LOT slower than normal. I mean, no one really has a set place to go. Everyone is just a lot more relaxed. My Sunday was absolutely perfect. It was probably one of the most beautiful fall days we've had so far. I love just strolling around my neighborhood with friends, getting sidetracked by picture-perfect moments, and soaking in the city's beauty. I feel weekends are just for that. My friends Justin, Claire, and I spent our Sunday afternoon having brunch at an adorable hole-in-the-wall breakfast joint called MUD in the East Village. I live for breakfast food and this place had just what I needed. I ordered the sourdough ALMOND FRENCH TOAST accompanied by a mimosa and coffee. I nearly died it tasted so good. Of course, I also had a bunch of bites off of my friends' plates! For our low key brunch, I went with a classic studded button up and J Brand exclusive skinnies (100% of the net proceeds sold will be donated to City Year in their efforts to prevent high school dropouts.) Clothes with a cause, can you say AMAZING?! Plus, they're extra comfy and super hot. Another weekend staple? My "The Bowery" Rebecca Minkoff for Vogue Eyewear/CFDA limited edition sunglasses which I shot the campaign for! Sold at Sunglass Hut, these cat-eye rocker shades are already becoming a NYC must-have :)

Hi there, apologies for the blog break. Truth is I have not opened my computer all weekend, and it has been amazing. Did a quick trip back home to finland in the name of project research, also took myself a few spare moments to take pictures in the beautiful fall surroundings. These though are from last week or so, I love wearing a turtleneck under my shirts and knits, it's kinda à la celine.. or more like à la anyone who grew up in finland.

But fear not, I am back to my routine again
