Looking Sharp?

Sandy: Here's my stripy nails! If you are looking a way to decorate your nails but modern, not too flashy or with only one colour here's an idea for steeling. The colour is dark blue but I think it would look even more stylish in black I just didn't have black nail polish at hand. he blue polish had a smaller brush than normal nail polish though not super small. It could have been smaller since with this brush I had to be very light handed and I have to confess that the above picture is of my left hand, painted with my right hand. Painting the right hand with the left was not as easy and the stripes turned out a bit thicker.
(Unfortunately, when I took the picture the light was bad and the tips of the nails are a bit lost in the shadow.)

A Fashionable Costume

Sandy being very fashionable

Sandy: Hell has frozen over for I have for once followed a hot trend! I saw this metal collar on the cover of a magazine and thought "That's just what I have wished for." And joy of joys the collar wasn't expensive or rare - it's from Glitter.

Sandy: The magazine itself was a bit of a disappointment like most magazines since I started reading blogs. When I by a magazine (though this one was cheap, only 2€) I expect expert views from professionals. Not someone calling eyeglasses "army cameo pattern" that clearly where classic turtle shell, to mention one example that was annoying me. Probably wasn't genuine turtle but still...

Wendy: They should let their fabulous blogger Teemu Bling (http://thingforthebling.costume.fi) write the whole magazine!

Sandy: Is that really his last name now, Bling? And yeah, that guy knows what he is talking about.

Tartan Nails

Sandy's obsession of tartan is taken to new dimensions. Autumn is the season for tartan though it does not seem to be especially in this year but we do not care for trends.

Sandy: Now I think maybe I should have done the whole nail. I only painted the tips so it would not be too overwhelming. I tried to do plaid before but it turned out a mess so I wasn't sure how this would turn out but now I think it's close enough.

Rainbow Nails

Wendy had a good nail day today. Like? If only we had yellow nail polish too it would have been perfect. Soon you'll see Sandy's tartan nails. Stay tuned.

Rosy earrings

Wendy: I bought a silk top, thick silk good as new, second hand for 3 euros.

On the same shopping trip I found a bag made from some sort of tar with food advertisement on it. On the inside there are even instructions for cooking rice. It's in a language I don't understand but there are pictures. Not that anyone needs instructions to cook rice. More useful as a laptop bag I say.

Food...?

Nah, there was only an Apple.

The pattern on the shirt

Sandy: My jeans ripped and after an appropriate morning period I figured it was time to get new ones. I found these bright green pants on sale. They match perfectly this old silk scarf handed down to me that might be as old as from the 60's or 70's.

Wendy: Well, I guess that color is back in style.
