September Mid- Autumn 2021
The oldest inland city of Finland, the hometown of Jean Sibelius and the Holy Land of Rock & Roll, surrounded by 339 lakes and located on several hills, Hämeenlinna village settled since the Viking Age and the medieval castle was built around 1320’s. Taking VR train from Helsinki, it takes approximately one hour to arrive, the great memory of AC/DC concert from the outskirt of Hämeenlinna in 2015 appeals us to revisit at Mid-Autumn Festival, 2021.
In Latin called Tavastum or Croneburgum, Hämeenlinna castle consists of a central keep and surrounding curtain walls, enclosed by a moat. The keep originally had five turrets, while only two are apparent after restoration in 1988. The curtain wall has a gatehouse, battlements, an octagonal brick corner turret and a round gun turret. With the rebuilt work from the centuries, the base of Hämeenlinna is embedded on the uneven bedrock, the lower tiers of the keep and curtain wall are of masoned granite and the upper tiers are red brickwork. Considering the pebble roads to take on, a pair of comfy sneakers from MIU MIU is definitely must-have for my outfit of the day.
CHLOÉ 100% virgin wool sweater with sleeves in 91% silk, 8 % polyamide and 1% elastane, owns its lovely milky white colour; surprisingly the heavy weight keeps the rather chilly air away, at 5°c mid-autumn day, merely this single iconic wear can support my one-day trip chic and comfy. ZARA Mom Fit jeans have been my favourite since 2020,since the double-side slit pockets give the convenience, also the high-Rise cut shapes the silhouette slims, and the most important of all, that the tapered denim makes my movement super easy. The only worry of this mid-weight fabric is, that from the Bangladesh 100% cotton with non-stretchy material, after the full meal at Nepalese restaurant, I need to release the upper button for several-minute mini break.
As for accessories, in order to salute Rock & Roll sprit of 2015 AC/DC concert, VALENTINO VLTN off-white text bracelet in black calfskin is perfect together with CHANEL quilted lambskin Le Sac in silver hardware, in order to stay coherence with MIU MIU black lambskin sneakers with silver pointed toe shape. At day tour in Hämeenlinna, Chanel Le Sac is spacious to carry IPHONE, keys, alcohol cotton swipes and travel size skincare daily essentials, and its stripe is convenient to style either a shoulder carry-on or a fanny pack. Last but not the least, CHLOÉ ivory acetate sunglasses always support as my best travel mate during the fashion fun photo session, indeed, it’s highly matching with CHLOÉ 100% virgin wool sweater after all!
TOP TIP 1: One perfect material virgin wool sweater rules the mid-autumn daytrip all. Always choose the material first, designer name second.
TOP TIP 2: A pair of Mom Fit jeans makes the city tour easy and comfy
