Corsets, fishnets, fake dreads, music.
Unintentional cuteness, semi-artistic skills, head full of song lyrics and foreign words.
Memento mori and the macabre.
You can call me Anna.

A Finnish millinery student blogging alternative fashion, beautiful headwear, macabre artwork, random things and the occasional Michael Jackson.

Today was my grandmother’s funeral.She was very into fashion and she always wore hats; She said she would never leave the house without one. So how could I - as a soon-to-be-milliner - honour my grandmother? By making a hat of course, keeping her in mind in every step of the process.This photo was taken at her memorial service earlier today (which explains the toned down make-up and clothes).

Last night’s outfit from our Ding Dong-themed Eurovision party.
I was thinking of maybe wearing this for my graduation, what do you guys think? (Forgive me my stupid face, I don’t know why I keep looking like I’m 12.)

Just got back from the Santa Cruz album release gig. I don’t usually listen to their kind of music (hard rock/hair metal) but I got to say, I like the way they sounded live!It’s a shame it’s Wednesday, otherwise I would’ve stayed longer.

I made a quick prototype of a decorative collar (and took these photos even faster, my apologies).
After some tweaking of the pattern (fine-tuning the bat’s ears and changing the fastening method, for example) would anyone be interested in buying these if I made some more (and put them up on my Etsy)? (:

It is Walpurgis day which in Finland means loads of donuts, sima (mead), confetti, and of course balloons. I was lucky enough to get this fellow to keep me company this year! Happy May Day, hauskaa vappua :3
