What more could a self-confessed romantic, engaged in a love affair with all things beautiful ask for…
You see, I was invited to an event where a rather legendary Finnish boutique Ajatar, specialized in luxury coats, celebrated her 60 years in business. With a superb performance by two dancers from the National Ballet, a very cool fashion show, a live concert.. Quite an exquisite evening.
I’ll let the pictures speak.
Prima Ballerina Minna Tervamäki, from the Finnish National Ballet

No further presentation needed I presume… Personally, I’m green with envy.

Sirpa Kajo, Pipsa Lagus, Ilkka Ruotsalainen, Hannele Herttua. Guests who bring spirit and spunk to any party they attend :). Photo: Ajatar.

The ever gorgeous Niina Kurkinen again.

Ok, this is then the Princess of the evening. The always enchanting Heli Kajo.
Then the Grande Finale.
Performed by dancers Kare Länsivuori and Minna Tervamäki. With such intensity; of separation, despair, caress.
After their dance I simply had to leave the crowd, to protect that feeling they brought to life somewhere deep my heart.
And it carried me all the way home, as I wandered through the rainy stormy streets of Helsinki. 
Thank you for this evening ♥.
Thank you Sari, thank you Sissi, thank you all you wonderful artists.
And me then… As usual, I walked home with both feet firmly off the ground.
