Red Lipstick, Paillettes and Old Good Shoes

I guess the weather is changing to warmer at last as I had to drag myself for a pram walk through a horrible snowstorm. Well, it is Valentines Day still. But I feel like piano playing, eating chocolate and watching movies. INDOORS.

Anyway, to make an effort and after running out of entertainments for Leo I decided to use red lipstick. And you know, French are right, it makes a lot of difference. But what I did not expect is that Leo was totally crazy about it. He could not stop laughing. Maybe because I looked like a clown. Anyway, been outside and people were holding the laugh at least rather well. :) The sweatshirt with paillettes is old by Mango, Leo loves sparkling things a lot. It is not very practical with a very small baby (tried and failed) but now it is one of the ways to make him laugh. So I was a walking entertainment today. Anyway, something for myself as well - my very favourite and comfortable and cool motorcycle boots by Billi Bi, a Danish brand, by the way. There homepage has the latest designs in appetizing brights, so watch out. :)



And a small pleasant surprise, I got 1 bunch of tulips for free at the local shop. I bought 1 but the cashier guy told to take the second one - just because...I like to think I got the purple ones for free. :)


Let us hope the snowstorm will turn into sunshine...

  1. Good on you! That's exactly what Finns need in snowstorm: red lipstick and paillettes to brighten up a grey day, and not only Leo's! Funnily enough, I wore a shirt with paillettes today and Olli couldn't keep his hands off them :)

  2. You need to show a pic of your paillette shirt, Mari. :) So now I know the secret to little boys' hearts. ;)
