Monday mood

Toivottavasti viikonloppusi oli rentouttava! Kuvien perusteella omani oli melko vaaleanpuna-harmaa. Oli miten oli se oli todella rentouttava ja se tulikin tarpeeseen. Syyskuu ei ollut tänä vuonna ihan elämäni parhaita kuukausia, mutta onneksi elämä on hiipinyt hiljalleen tuttuihin uomiinsa ja lokakuu alkoi heti todella ihanissa fiiliksissä.

Did you have a good weekend? Mine was super relaxin. Here are some photos from it...

I was channeling my inner Miss Marple at work in a silk shirt, a blush cashmere cardigan ( it´s this one as some of you asked) and a grey woollen pencil skirt. I added some leather sneakers, a big scarf and my Trotteur to take me closer to my actual age from the granny era. Last week I wore a lot of blush and grey in general. One favourite are my “antique rosé” pants ( 20€ from Zara!) with a loose grey cashmere sweater.

The bunny is from the Fazer candy factory we visited on Sunday with the kids. It´s made of empty egg shells. It was amazing. The kids were expecting to see oompa loompas but were very happy to get to taste some goodies even without the Willy Wonka workers.

Cotton Candy hurrying to her ballet class with her cute ballerina bun. Makes my heart skip a beat.

Thursday night relaxation. A lovely hot bath after a long week sets the tone for the weekend nicely. I like to set the table ready on Thursday night if we are doing a more festive Friday night dinner. Then I only have to do the cooking together with my husband on Friday after work. Setting the mood for the weekend already on Thursday night makes me feel like the weekend starts already on Friday and thus feels longer. Anyone else who loves the anticipation of things almost as much as the actual occasion ( trips, parties, weekends)?

We did some birthday party shopping on Saturday with Cotton Candy for her sister´s parties. It´s the season. I´m ecstatic!

Bubble Gum going for dinner at her grandparents house. Wearing her Brooks Brothers coat, Marie Chantal dress & La Coqueta Mary Jane´s. 

More grey and pink. Plus I made  a batch of my pumpkin spice mixture and coffee tastes so good with it. Even on the go!

Finally all set with winter clothes. This is Cotton Candy´s set. More about them later. The merino wool hats were too adorable to pass. Not the classiest choise but the girls look so cute in them. Besides I´m pretty sure that the pink hats with pink pom poms, bows & glitter-time is pretty much coming to it´s end in our house so I´m embracing it.

We stocked up on some soft drinks and mini bottles of sparkling water for the upcoming parties. And I bought new mini trees for my kitchen.

Saturday morning breakfast is ♥. This time egg & soldiers with tea and some toast with strawberry jam to boot.

I wish you have a lovely week coming up! I had a bit of an awful September really so I´m very happy we moved on to October and I can feel the change in my life already. Feeling much lighter and happier when things are rolling in their normal routine. 

Toivon sinulle aivan ihanaa alkavaa viikkoa! Kiitos kaikista ihanista kommenteistanne viime postauksiin, vastaan teille kyllä pikimmiten! ♥
