Helsinki Honey

The epicenter of Finland, Helsinki is comprised of over 300 islands tied together by an impressive configuration of gorgeous bridges and rich history. Home to barely over a million people, Helsinki is the capitol of Finland, founded in 1550 by King Gustav I of Sweden. Known as "The Daughter of Baltic Sea", Helsinki is one of the most interesting places I have ever traveled to.

A small city by modern standards, Helsinki is an urban wonderland surrounded by colorful Nordic countryside and expanse ocean. Tattoo shops, thrift stores, and coffee houses line the charming cobblestone streets. Ornate architectural masterpieces are perched on lush hillsides overlooking the elegant landscape, paying homage to the diverse culture found within this seaside paradise.

The winters in Helsinki are intense as the city becomes enveloped in a heavy blanket of snow, somewhat resembling a lost arctic hideaway. There is no sunlight during the winter and perpetual darkness endures throughout the season. Many of the most revered metal and gothic bands hail from Helsinki, the endless night no doubt influencing much of the artistic expression attributed to this unusual region.

During the summer months Helsinki comes alive with bustling activity. The midnight sun insures that there will be continuous daylight, effortlessly balancing the previous winter's chill. There are no boundaries while exploring the beautiful Suomenlinna islands which are only a short ferry ride away. The open-air markets are perfect for discovering handmade treasures while Tavastia Club hosts some of the best nightlife in Northern Europe.

I am thrilled to introduce the "Helsinki Honey" dress, inspired by my amazing trip to Helsinki and the beautiful vintage vixens I met while I was there. Finland has no shortage of retro enthusiasts and I was impressed by the incredible fashion I encountered on a daily basis. The "Helsinki Honey" dress is designed to transition easily from playtime to party time. The summer weather is perfect for the flirty circle skirt silhouette while a crinoline and stockings transform this dress into the ideal attire during the cooler months. Regardless of where you may be in the world, "Helsinki Honey" will insure that you channel the unique style of one of Europe's most fascinating destinations.

Pair the "Helsinki Honey" dress with the "Lucky Flower" hair clip for a brilliant ensemble.
