This morning I put on my blue bow shoes and
bicycle dress and headed south with Eddi and
Ina (who this time left her Mr.T at home).
We took the ferry across the Finnish Bay to Tallinn. ( It's not as serious as it looks :)
Eddi taking picures with his iPhone.
The result (hipstamatic for ze iphone. Works quite well, even though it gave me zombie arms here). The whole scenario to be seen
here.
...And some more results. As you can see from me and Ina, the sub-theme of the day was taking photos.
The actual theme of the day was the
Tallinn vintage and retro culture fair! Evergreens in Estionian, free Martinis and a lot of desireable furniture. I'll get in on that some more a bit later. You can also read more about the fair on Ina's
blog.
Afterwards we went to Kompressor for stuffed pancakes and cherry juice (Cherry juice! That's something they don't sell at home!). And btw as you can see I cut the sleeves of the dress into cap sleeves
as planned.
Mushrooms, blue cheese and garlic sour cream -they sure now how tho make pancakes in the Baltics! (and in Hungary too btw, even though different there).
I go to Tallinn about once or twice a year and have the pancakes at Kompressori on almost every visit. But I still always forget how to find the place, almost give up and then bump in to it by accident. Every time.
Coffee.
And then it was time to take the boat home. View from the window.
It was a fun day! (And we were
almost colour-coordinated. Bring in the
tuulipuvut! ;)
(my dress is vintage, the shoes from ModCloth and the small beret form Molla Mills, Eddis shirt is from VintageEija's and Ina's vintage dress is from Sivletto, if you're interested in those facts.)

The IttyBittyTease Cabaret goes indians; Running Bear.
Fiona played records, as usual. And that girl can choose her records well I tell you.
Bent Van Der Bleu. You can see him tonight at DTM both as Lola Vanilla and as Bent.
Bettie Blackheart's Russian Rose.
Jackie O'Lanterns Volcano. I bet it would be an even more popular number this week right? (Not perhaps if you, like Jackie, had a flight booked though...)
Lola is not your everyday kind of 'chick'; "There's something Wrong With Lola" as Screamin' Jay Hawkins (almost) sings it.
And that's me doing the "knee-number", partly to this song, but it starts out slower as something of a parody on fancy and "look-at-me-I'm-so-hot "burlesque.
Kalani.
Make up.
Posing.
