Accessories time!

I could say I'm sorry for NOT posting this last week like I said, but I've been very occupied with Band of Brothers and Suits and I gotta say...


So yeah. Not sorry for spending some quality time with some great TV shows x)
Anyway, here it is: my totally awesome post including some of my jewerly, like necklaces and earrings, featuring a random Harrod's plate.

Let's start with the bracelets.

Friis and Co. bracelet, gift from my friend Meri.

It's supposed to have a lock next to the heart-locket-thingy, but it got lost long time ago T_T
I still like it a lot, of course. I love Friis~

Self-made, given to me by my friend Jens.

I got this from Jens like 3 years ago... wow. Such a long time ago :'D
And that's actually when we met. We both happened to be in London for the same reason and he had a big bunch of these on his arm. I asked about them and he told he had made most of them himself and then gave this one to me.
It goes together really well with this as well:

Rainbow bracelet, bought from Helsinki Pride 2007 (?)

This one rarely comes off my wrist nowadays. When I got it, I used to wear it all the time.
Then I removed it for some reason and it took me ages to start using it again as much as I use it now. It's been on my wrist for at least a month now. 24/7.

Let's take some of my rings at this point:

Above: 4 rings from Bijou Brigitte. Below: 1 from Bijou Brigitte.

I very rarely use rings. The four colourful ones I bought from Liverpool when we went there for a day. They were just so cool and since they were metallic and together, I got them.
The plain one is plastic and used to have black zebralike stripes on it, which I've been trying to get off since I kinda want it to be just silver-ish. I think I got it from Bijou Brigitte in Kamppi...

I do have more rings, for example my secondary school class ring, which has barbwire design on it. I should have my elementary school class ring SOMEWHERE... but I haven't seen that in ages. It even had a dragon on it ;__;

Well, let's move on to earrings:

Friis and Co. earrings, present from Kiira and Maria.

Obviously some people know my small love for Friis... I'm not as bad as a certain someone who introduced me to the brand, but I'm slowly getting there.
I gotta thank her for introducing me to this awesome brand!!!

But yeah, three pair of earrings~ The black stars are my favourites, I have to admit. Not to say that I don't like the others, because I DO.

Black star earrings, bought from Seppälä.

So yeah... I kinda like stars. You'll probably notice it soon.

Butterfly earrings, a gift from Monica.

I also like butterflies :D Got these from Monica as christmas gift and I love to use them with my bohemian gyaru-ish shirt :3

Leaf earrings, a gift from my friend Christin.

These actually came in the same pouch with a necklace (that you'll be seeing a bit later, patience). Christin gave them to me as a christmas gift if I remember correctly. (When you have your birthday in December, it's sometimes hard to remember wether people gave a present for birthday or christmas...)

Off to the necklaces!

Leaf necklace, from Christin.

So this is the necklace I mentioned like a few seconds or minutes ago (depending how fast you're reading and IF you were reading).
They're made out of a material that makes a funny sound when they hit each other so it's hard for me to run or jump quietly while wearing this :D

Feather necklace, from Glitter.

This one some of you've seen before so not much to tell about it. Except that I lost one feather to a shop in Helsinki-Vantaa airport -_-

Friis and Co. necklace, bought from Friis' own shop in Turku.

When they still had one... I think it either moved or they quit... I do not approve of this.
But I love this necklace (a star!) ♥ I got it for myself as a birthday present in... 2008 or something.

Muffin necklace, bought from Seppälä.

I like these kind of necklaces :3

Horse necklace, also from Seppälä.

I actually have this one twice. I've been supposed to customise the other one, but haven't been assed to :'D
I like it~

Fake dog tag necklace, from Gina Tricot.

WITH an actual, very real, dog tag from Finnish army tank you very much.
I bought the fake dog tags 'cause I have a thing for Union Jack and I like dog tags.
I then attached my fathers dog tag to it. Just until I can find a better/another chain for it... it's been like that for years...

Snowflake necklace, present from Ida.

Once again a birthday present from a friend of mine :3 I like this, 'cause snow ♥
It even has those fake diamond thingies that make it shiny~

Star necklace, bought from JC.

STAAAAARSSS!!! ♥ And it's partly pink. What's not to like? :D


Aaand that, my friend, is about it. I do have WAY more accessories/jewelry (and I mean A LOT more), but I decided to show you my favourites and the ones that I have here with me.
Because showing everything would be... a lot.

Well, have a nice day, stay human and look at Elina and me being totally cool (I suggest you also check out earlyseedling that should easily be found through that video):



(Btw, terribly sorry but I'm too lazy to proofread this right now so I'll do it a bit later!)

"Stina's not wearing any trousers! AGAIN!"

Oookay... I noticed that I might have a bit too many necklaces and other accessories here so I decided to actually have two different posts on my shorts and accessories. Makes it easier.

Today, I'm gonna kick off with the shorts and if YOU are nice enough, I might have the accessories post ready for tomorrow.

The shorts are listed in age order of a kind. Meaning the older shorts come first and the newer are last. Simple.

Now, let me start by jumping to year... oh gosh. I don't even know:

2003? 2004???

Honestly, do NOT make me try to remember the year I got these :''D They are OLD.
One summer I was visiting my dear friend Pia in Luxembourg and one day we drove to Trier, a village/city in Germany, with her family.
We used to do this a lot. Me going there over for holidays and since Luxembourg is a small-ish place, we used to drive somewhere like Trier or Strasbourg (France) for a day.
Anyway, this one day we went to a shop called New Yorker or something like that, which I'm pretty sure doesn't exist anymore to look for clothes.
I remember seeing these bamfs and decided to buy them immediately although they were pretty expensive, they're Fishbone (big thing back then) after all!

I remember it took me AGES to actually to start using them xD I was very (and still am) self-conscious about my body and they just happen to be very short. Started using them A LOT when I finally got into gyaru style (that was... 5 (?) years ago).
I'm pretty sure I've grown height since then so I have noooo idea how they still fit me. They are actually a bit too big... So either they've grown with me or then I just bought a size too big when I got them.

2008? (I am sooo unsure of these older ones :''D)

These are actually jeans. Size 42 (meaning they're about 14 in UK and 12 in US). My aunt's old jeans.
She just gave them to me and I thought "Well... these are big. What do I do- SHORTS."
Then after some scissoring and sewing I had myself "brand new" shorts AND removable trouser legs/leg warmers x)))
Of course they are still big hipwise but luckily enough someone invented belts years ago.

2009 (prrretty sure).

Sorry. I wasn't really assed to iron them. Woops.
These I bought from Seppälä (Link ♥) in the beginning of 2009. Could have also been end of 2008, but the earliest memory of wearing these I have is from Stockholm 2009.
It's actually a very, very nice green that just looks a bit.. dirty in the pictures (camera phone, remember?).
Gotta love the detail at the back: one pocket with one button :333

I really should iron them...

2010.

If someone recognises these, they should yell "HEP!" now x)
These are my trustworthy manba shorts that I bought from Seppälä in 2010!
The moment I saw these shorts, pink and purple lights went off inside my head and an internal announcement yelled "Manba! Manba! Get this! For manba times!".

The colour is WAY off in the picture, sorry. Here. Have a better picture of the colour of the shorts:

It's more orange/coral, as you can see.

The followers and other readers who have been following for a while now can probably remember these from my manba post in August of 2010.
These are kinda same with the Fishbone ones... they don't hide much but enough x)

2010.

First shorts I bought after I had moved to England.
We were having an army/police/firemen/etc. themed party with my coursemates and I originally bought these for that (needed black shorts for my costume). One of my coursemates, who's also like a brother to me, had dressed up as The Doctor :D

Picture's a bit bad so it's hard to see that the insides of the shorts are partly leopard patterned but otherwise the shorts are black.
Expensive, from River Island, but totally worth it.

2011.

These I got from Primark in January... they were cheap and really cute. And SHORT.
I can't remember how and why I decided to buy these, I guess it just happened :'''D

The only annoying thing about them are the small blings on the other side. They always get stuck to stuff x)) Otherwise I like these a lot.

2011.

High waist shorts with the fugly belt that came with them. These I bought from Primark because I've been wanting high waist shorts for quite while and when I saw these I just had to do it.
They are surprisingly comfy and nice~

Most annoying thing is that these doesn't have pockets in the fron and I always try to put something in the nonexistent pockets x)


And those, ladies and gents, were my shorts ♥ For now...
Since I'm such a short... hogger, I'm expecting my collection to grow some more x)
That's all for now, next time I'll show you some of my accessories! Stay human!

Oh, oh. Have a look at my nails before you go:

My nails last week.

My nails this week :3
