Push the Button

On Monday, almost immediately after posting, I got a horrible migraine. I tried to prevent it as soon as I felt first symptoms but it still started. Had to suffer for half a day. Could have used all the time I  lost studying or doing projects.

Even though I still don't have anything exciting to write about, I thought it would be nice sharing what I spazz and cry about whenever I have time.

Last week Korean brand pushBUTTON launched capsule collaboration collection of few pieces with 4EVA Mall. It's nothing special but that's the charm.
                                                                                                                                                               

I especially love All of pushButton collections and To do list shirts.

All of pushBUTTON collections
To do list

Even though it's just text, there's always more meaning behind plain letters. People rarely stop to think what designer(s) had in their mind. When you see a collection its meaning is completely different from the one you look at knowing the name. There's usually a story behind the name. Of course, there are designers who simply name their collections with words that suit the whole picture. No story - just plain meaningless letters.

It's a pity that 4EVA Mall delivers only in Korea. Downsides of living on the other side of the world and liking brands that are mostly only available in the country of origin. Like I would've had money anyway. Check 'em out if you're residing in Korea. Or just visiting sometime soon.

On a side note, I decided a few days ago to go to Tampere. My friend has been begging me to go there for almost a year already, but I've been pushing it with excuses. So finally going there on Sunday for a few days. Hope to get some blogging material in the industrial city of Finland.

Until next time, xo.

Wish I was there

I've been wanting to blog for a whole week already but I have had absolutely nothing to write about. Yes, my life is that boring.

As I'm moping about my life in Finland and studying for matriculation examinations in September, I'm also waiting for the moment I can finally say good-bye to high school, move on with my life and dreams and escape to South Korea.

My attention is sprawled all over the place right now. Fashion Weeks don't quite help with my studying, and I'm also trying to get my hands onto my own fashion projects, which, unfortunately, isn't going as smoothly as I wished for. (Most of my time goes on studying.) And, of course, I'm keeping an eye out for what's happening on the other side of the world.

Some of you might know Feggy Min - an amazing artist from Switzerland. She got under the bright spotlight last year and now she's having her own hip hop show in Itaewon, Club Lucidream, in August. Oh how I wish I was there.

I know there'll be a lot of hip hop shows in Seoul once I get there, but what's the possibility to have another Feggy Min show. This show ain't only about good music, it's about her artwork too, and I really want to support fellow young and rising artist.

As a poor jobless student I don't have money to buy her clothes or any of her artworks even if I want to. After brainstorming for a while I thought writing and somehow promoting Feggy Min and her show held in a few weeks would be enough of support in my current situation. Even though I'm sure this post won't trigger anyone's interest since only my friends read this blog HA!

I think I don't need to tell much about the show because the poster says most of it.








































I was crying here in agony (was tired of studying) so I made a playlist based on performing artists and songs I like. I had to cut off a lot of songs I love from the playlist, otherwise it would've been way too long. So, if there's someone who's in the same situation as me - wanting to be present on the show but is unable to attend - or waiting with excitement for the moment they step into Lucidream, here's something you might enjoy: Feggy Min Hip Hop Show Playlist

I'm 100% sure I had more on my mind. Guess I'll be back once I remember, then. Until then, enjoy good music and some dope art!

UPDATE!

Here's Hiphopplaya link where's more information on the show. You can also buy tickets there. Good luck to those who don't understand Korean. Who am I even writing this for OTL. You can ask for help if needed.

Tickets

You can enter aftershow party with the same ticket.

Until next time, xo.

Yo!

So. Getting it on, I guess. There's no need to introduce myself. Some of you know me, and those who don't will get to know me eventually.

This is my nth time starting a blog with all previous attempts being a fail. I hope this time I'll have enough motivation and inspiration on updating.

I think it would be pointless to describe now what I'll be blogging about.I don't even know myself yet.

To make this post less gray here is a song that will add some color.



Fooled you all. It's gray too. But I really love this song, especially this version.

Until next time, xo.
