Not dead



So, it's been exactly one year since my last post and as you can see, I'm not dead. Some of this blogs followers have already discovered me on Instagram, I'm chuffed to see. Anyway, you might be wondering what I have been up to for a year that has had me so busy that I haven't had time or energy to write new blog posts. Well, here's the story in the form of captioned pictures. Enjoy!

In spring 2014, I had my first solo article published in Golden Vintage magazine. It was about Finel vintage enamel.




During the summer I wrote and had published my second article, this time it was about a friends vintage handbag collection.





At the beginning of July was Suvi-Vintage, where I once again took to the stage in the Fintage vintage fashion show, this time in early 60s styling, dress and accessories.

 In late summer I had my first pinup-style photo shoot with Pin-Up Helsinki. Here is a quick snap of my derriere the brilliant photographer Jirina Alanko took on my mobile. Styling by Fiona Timantti.




In early autumn I was given the opportunity to take part in the making of a short film called The Shadow Seamstress. It was directed by Nick Gillespie and will shortly have it's international premiere! This is a pic of me in costume (and possibly in character), taken before filming.
