ZARA

If you're on a budget, I would not recommend going to ZARA right now. With the new collection everything in there is just...perfect! I love all the white for the summer. Take a look:

Marni at H&M

When I got home, I couldn't help but smile when I saw what was on my bed. 

After getting home at 6am from working the night shift, I put my alarm on for 10.45 because the Marni at h&m collection started selling at 11am. I opened h&m.com and the message 'Due to the interest in our latest designer collaboration, you are being placed in a queue. Please try again" kept popping up. An hour and a half later I could barely keep my eyes open any more and just gave up. A few hours later I went to try again and finally got through but the shoes I so wanted had been sold out (surprise surprise). I called my mom at work and asked if she could kindly go into one of the three h&m's in Finland that carry the collection and see if they miraculously still had a pair in my size. She agreed, but said she would do it in the evening after getting off work. Turns out she had gotten the last pair in my size! 

They're perfect! They're so much like these other Marni saw I wanted a few years back but couldn't find anywhere. They are super high but pretty comfortable. I can't wait for the snow to melt so I can wear them!

Aritzia Spring '12

I've fallen in love with Aritzia all over again. I've loved all of their collections for as long as I can remember and the new one doesn't disappoint. The clothes are simple and wearable. The runway looks are always really nicely put together and I only wish there was a store here in Finland (yeah right). The collection is full of pastels, bright colors and sun-faded hues. I love the washed down denim, the tailored jackets and the interesting cuts. I guess I'm only gonna have to daydream for now. Enjoy!
