INTRICATE ANGLES

Sparkles

"It's the most, wonderful time, of the year.." Americans sure know how to celebrate and decorate during Christmas season. We have a lot to learn from them. I love all the sparkling lights and funny ugly christmas sweater days. This post is about celebration - celebrating life and the independence of my beloved home country, Finland! I am so thankful for the veterans who fought in the war for our independence. Because of their sacrifices I get to benefit from the opportunities my country offers. I love my country and I´m proud to be a finn! 

These pics were taken way back before I came to the States. I just felt this is the right time for posting them. I found this sparkly dress from a vintage store years ago. It really didn´t make any sense to get the dress, since where would I wear it.. But does everything have to make sense? And you never know when you might need the perfect dress, right ladies?! I think we should celebrate more enthusiastically and have fun dressing up. I don´t do it often enough, even though I would love to. So I need to have a silly photoshoot to dress up, obviously?! But really, it´s too true! Most of us tend to take our lives too seriously and forget to live in the moment and have fun. I had a great time doing this photoshoot and this blog is really a fun outlet for me to express myself. 

I want to keep this blog light-hearted and not to get into too deep thoughts, which I have a tendency to do. But I would love to get feedback on how I could improve it. Please feel free to message me!

Wishing my country a Happy Independence Day and all of you, my dear readers, a wonderful time of the year with gifts and surprises!

Intricately yours,

Marjo
