The Gulf of Finland

Just wanted to share some photos I took this summer on the Gulf of Finland. Magical birds and people. Please click to zoom.

hair! hair! hair!

I'm going to see my favorite hairdresser tomorrow. Looking around for inspiration I came across some good stuff! I'm probably just getting just 2 inches off. Wish I was brave enough to go for something like this.

shop update

I admit, I haven't been great at updating louilouivintage,etsy.com. Here is a preview of what's to come!

I do!

Does anyone know where I can get this dress? I want to marry it!

Featherheart not only happens to be my good friend and neighbor, she also just opened a brand new etsy shop! In her own words, "Featherheart’s herbal body products are made from the finest Italian olive oils, organic plants and the precious work of the bee. She does not use a lot of essential oils to fragrance her products, rather she uses raw plant material and it’s natural scent found in nature, infused in olive oil, giving her products highly healing and medicinal qualities that act to soothe not only the skin, but the body. . . because remember, whatever you put on your skin eventually gets absorbed into your body!
Even though you will never take away my Dior night cream, I'm a true convert! I am addicted to her lip balms! My lips haven't felt this smooth in ages. I also favor the Patchouli Salve! Although, I'm not the biggest fan of all things patchouli, this salve has changed me forever! It feels perfect on the skin and has the most amazing scent! If only her shop had a scratch and sniff option! Don't even get me started on Amma's Rose Lotion. So folks, hurry on down to Featherheart Trading Co. before everyone else in the world discovers her magical potions and lotions!

Listening to so much Joni Mitchell lately! So, I did a little digging around on wiki and found out that Joni used to live right around these parts. She moved to Detroit with her husband in the mid 60's and played around the local coffee shops near Wayne State University. I love her look here! The long blonde tresses, the layered chains, the black dress! Goddess!

I've been meaning to post these for a while. A few of the resent front pagers of etsy! Yeah!!

Hello friends it's been awhile! I have so many stories to share about my trip back to the old country, but first let me give you a little peak at what the kids are wearing on the streets. More photos to come, so stay tuned!
