Yesterday was Mother's Day which we also celebrated by having lunch with my family at NJK, located at a little island just at the front of Helsinki. As the day was sunny and quite warm (despite the wind) decided to go for quite light shades and lightweight materials.
And this time as we also had an "outside" photographer (my brother), I got my best accessory to the picture as well€¦ Can't do this often as she totally leaves me in her shadow€¦

Starting the week with a sales tip. Berg&Berg just started their annual online outlet with great savings on previous collections and samples.

A couple of days I wrote shortly about the 2015 look book by P.Johnson Tailors. As tomorrow is a national holiday here in Finland and many people are going to celebrate that - came up with an outfit that could suit that celebration - inspired by the looks of P.Johnson Tailors. A sand-colored cotton (/linen) suit is a summer staple and combined with driving mocs and merino wool polo shirt it's a perfect look for casual spring and summer celebration. As the weather might still however be a little bit unstable one might want to prepare by putting on a field jacket that will bring a little protection against possible wind and rain.

When looking for inspiration - one of the most useful sources I go for is P.Johnson Tailors - a company run by two guys, Patrick Johnson and Tom Riley that just recently actually opened a new showroom in New York and so widened their range outside of Australia. And not just their look books or products but the style of Patrick and Tom themselves, where the style of the company is present naturally and prominently. For weekly dose of inspiration however a few shots from the new look book of P.Johnson Tailors that consists of looks that have been implemented simply and effectively yet with ease. Even though almost all of the looks are firmly on the casual side of...
