Rabbit in my headlights
I was away in Tartu for some days and had a massively great time with my friends and my dearest Andre, whose record I´m holding. He wanted to snap some quick promo photos before we headed out, but I didn´t want to. Here´s the outcome. Like a rabbit caught in the headlights of a truck during summertime.
I would still strongly recommend you visit his website, cause he is an exceptionally good Artist with a big A. (Though sometimes wants to photograph me in some vulnerable poses, but who cares.) He makes music for your imagination and takes you somewhere beyond.
Oh, I´m also singing in one of the tracks, a trip-hopish song with a 50s vibe.

Inside an Installation
Like I said yesterday, we went to Estonian Art Museum and found one great light installation by Marie Kølbæk Iversen. She uses modern technical devices such as video cameras and projectors to investigate the void. at first glance when we went there we couldn´t see the real depth of the piece, but when we moved closer, there were 6-7 cameras that recorded live and projected it to the walls, creating a continous vibration and image.Our existence made this piece work.
The other exhibitions on that floor were really too ´modern´ for me, I am more fond of pieces I can relate to or have at least some sort of aesthetics to them. A piece of old cereal box glued to a nonworking halogen lamp just doesn´t bring any emotions up. Or a piece of metal pipe that is covered with someones unmentionables. Well, tastes are different.

A beautiful day
Yesterday me and my guy went to Estonian Museum of Art called KUMU. It is situated in a beautiful park and I happen to live right next to the park. It was quite warm, only -12 or so and the sun felt sooooo nice( after.. I can´t even remember how many months.) Tomorrow I will post a sneak peek from the exhibition, there was a really cool installation.
Everything I´m wearing is thrifted from various places except the stockings and boots(Esprit), the coat is old Ivo Nikkolo, an Estonian designer.

My hairy ball of love
This is what my cat looks like when he´s sleeping. Can´t tell is it a hedgehog or a cat, but he´s equally cute anyway. His name is Varg and he is over 10 years old.
Welcome to the Tundra
I went out on Friday when it was a staggering -36 degrees. When we moved from point A to point B I suddenly felt dizzy (not to mention cold to the bones) and it turned out my nose had turned pale white- all the blood had frozen and my friends started to get worried for my health. Well, my nose is still intact, but when going home on foot, all my lashes were instantly covered with condensed water (and then frozen) and I was the official Ice Queen of the night.

Beating Cold Weather
It´s officially minus 32 degrees Celsius here. Almost impossible to be in the great outdoors and even inside (with heating) it tends to get chilly. Oh well...But I must admit, it´s difficult to find clothes that look good and don´t make me a Michelin woman with such a great cold. The key is layers, layers and more layers!
Like the picture shows, I am wearing a lot of knitted things- a wool cardigan and wool stockings (the kind of material most of us wore when we used to be kids) and wool-blend knee-higs on top of it. Underneath I have a slip (not woollen) and some more socks hidden underneath the stockings. And I feel that one pair of stockings isn´t enough, the wind just finds a way through the holes.
I am a ´skirts and dresses´ girl and even in these extreme conditions I would rather not wear pants, but coordinate my clothes and minuses shown on the thermometer.
The bag is one of my favourites, thrifted a year ago from Vintage Tallinn, knee-highs Lindex, skirt, blouse and cardigan thrifted, shoes Trendexpress.
