Overview: “Currently I’m studying a make-up course, after a year of art college. All of my interests tend to revolve around aesthetics.
I love to create beautiful pictures, my medium of choice is ink. I adore all aspects of fashion and style, if I had to pick an area in particular I would say haute couture – I find it fascinating.
I’ve loved make-up and the art of illusion ever since I was a very young girl, so I’m now completing one of my dreams by studying it.
Sideline hobbies I do for pleasure most days are photography, sewing, reading and cooking – I love creating beautiful food.”

3. Favorite designers:
“This season – John Galliano, Sharon Wauchob, and Burberry.”
4. Whose closet would you want to raid?
“Vivienne Westwoods – who wouldn’t?!”
5. Favorite accessories:
“I’m not a huge fan of accessories, but I like anything to do with pearls.”
6. Where do you shop?
“Mainly online – I live in a very small town and don’t have many chances to go to the city. My closet is mainly comprised of Topshop, H&M and vintage.”

Loove Tahti’s style! So…definite. Will she have her own make-up line? Can you ask her to a tutorial?
Just found you blog. Am a Ga-Ga fan, too. Don’t you just hate it when mainstream calls her weird and bizarre. They just DON”T GET IT ***
I predict that Tahti will become one of the faces of the new decade. She has beauty, brains, style and such a charming nature.
The mix of hair/skin colour, beautiful face, perfect body and long legs of a gazelle make her so Hot its amazing.
This is a perfect example of the X – Factor: http://lookbook.nu/look/386497-29-12-Underwear-as-Outerwear
