My name is Juulia Olkkonen and I’m super excited to get to share my thoughts about fashion and show the things I see in life through the lens of my Canon.
I’m not going to lie. If you’re close to me, you’ve probably seen me in sweatpants as many times as you’ve texted your best friend this year. The fact is I like to feel able to move and dance around. But don’t get me wrong, when I get ready, it’s a joyful process that consists of listening to a lot of Spotify and trying on all of my heels.
I strongly believe style is about showing people who you are through your choice of appearance. “That’s cool but I could never wear that” is a sentence that should be removed from our vocabulary. Why couldn’t you? I think the bolder and whatever speaks to you is important.
My ideal outfit always consists of something exciting. This leather jacket, for example, is a real motorcycle jacket. Secondhand stores and flea markets play an important role for me, because sometimes I find shopping in regular stores discouragingly hard. Nonetheless, I get to find extraordinary pieces of clothing that represent my style and are eco-friendly at the same time!
Now, go throw the sweats back into your closet and put on those heels: let’s get this party started!
