I have the cutest and loveliest dogs in the entire world! Aren't they adorable?
Pics taken by Paulina earlier this day, such amusing pictures!

Oh! By the way, I'm off to Stockholm for 3 days, so I'm gone until friday night with probably no bloging opportunities so I'll talk to you then!

Room inspiration

I love interior design! These pictures are such inspiration. I wish my room had a high ceiling and big light windows!  I'm honestley a bit tired of the whole shabby chic decorating that everyone seems to be doing at the moment. Sure, a few details and furniture pieces can be pretty but a whole room shabby chic room? Nahhh...instead I love the idea of mixing loads of different fabrics and styles but still keeping everything clean and simple. Antique furniture mixed with modern art and frames, and adding preppy touches. I love Ralph Lauren Home  (surprise, surprise) and I  think its really nice to mix that look with a complete opposite element.

I just got a rush to re-decorate... :D

Sunday

One of the best thing about weekends is definatley breakfast, getting up after sleeping a few extra hours and spending a bit of extra time making breakfast. Today, I went all out. Coffee, Juice, Bacon, toast with blackberry marmelade and chopped up bananas and nectarines drowned in cinnamon...YUM! that plus some flickering through an old atlas is a perfect way to start the day!


What do you like for breakfast? ;D

New pants :D

So my mum went to Zara yesterday and came back with a new pair of pants for me, they're these leather imitation pants with gold zipper details on the inner part of the ankles and on the pockets. I love them! My new favourite pair of pants! I didn't think that leather pants would look nice on me but these fit me like a glove, they're longer on me than in the picture because I'm so short and basically fit me like skinny jeans. And...they're super duper comfortable! Love, love, love!

I'll show them on very soon!

Fall inspo

Thought I'd share some pretty clothing and accesories that I'm checking out at the moment.  

 

 

Lace is still a big trend and I think the pieces above are really pretty and work for fall. I love the first tunic from Free people. The 2nd one is from Urban Outfitters and the third from Asos.com

Chunky knits are a must have! All the above are from TopShop, super cozy!

I've seen these type of dresses everywhere, chiffon-y silky dresses! I think they're reallty pretty, especially the first one. Definatley a piece that you can both dress up and down.

These are all the same pant in different colours from Urban Outfitters, I love the Red ones and the Blue ones, definatley something I'll try to check out..my closest urban outfitters is in Copenhagen, and thats not to far!

Skirts! I love little body-con ones to wear under tunics. I love the knitted one and the aztec-y one! 1: topshop. 2: Urban outfitters. 3: asos.com

All from Urban outfitters. Messenger bags are really in right now because they tie in with the masculine trend going on. I love how you can get a really bright one or one with a cute pattern!

Scarves are staples for me. Keep you warm and cozy :D These are from Zara and they're lovely!

Rings from Asos.com. I think rings are a great way to add a pop of colour and by adding a few different ones, you'll instantly amp up an outfit.

Earrings- wise, I like longer statement ones right now. But I don't own any! :( I really like these ones above especially the arrow ones from Urban Outfitters. 1 & 3 : Asos.com

Just some final jewellry that I really like. Cute and delicate necklaces and a boho bracelet that is a great layering piece for those who like to wear several bracelets at once. All of these are from Asos.com

I just got a wave of shopping-mania... :D
Hope you enjoyed!

Beauty wishlist

Here are some beauty things that I really am lusting after at the moment:

• New BareMinerals powder foundation : this is pure love, and it works sooo well!

• A darker, berry - coloured lipstick, this one in particular is from Nars, but any would do. I think a darker lisptick is really pretty for fall if you just stain your lips with it lightly.

• A new bronzer/blush to liven up my skin that is going to get paler and paler by everyday.

• Moroccanoil : My hairdresser used this on me last time and it made my hair so incredibly soft! So I'm going to get me some of my own, I think I'll order it from amazon, where its a bit cheaper. A great tip for you guys who have thick, frizzy and curly hair :D

• Too Faced natural eyes palette: This palette has the most gorgeous eyeshadows ever and i really want some new shades.

Anyways, its not like I'm going to get all these things..but one could dream :P

Yesterday

Me and some friends went bowling yesterday ( cuz' were that cool) and I just want to get it clear that I completley SUCK at bowling, I lost majorly!  We just felt like doing something different than just dinner + movie at someones house (although we did that too :P ) But it was fun!
 ....and now the weekend is over... :(

Some photos from today :D

 Took some outfit pics..not that I wore this today, but I was mainly testing lighting & location.

I forced Lucy-kins to join me in my pictures, isn't she just lovely?! I'm teaching her french at the moment :P

Spotifyyyyyy <3<3 Fave songs of the moment? People help the people & Month of mornings, both by Cherry Ghost + Without words & Shelter by Birdy <3

Made ceasar sallad for dinner all by myself *proud*  although I totally made way to little :p

Otherwise today's been reasonably uneventful, my phone has not turned up ( :( ), quite long school day, vaccuming all afternoon and then dinner! + my dad thought it was fun to put on the music surround- sound system, note: very loudly! I'm pretty sure my WHOLE neighbourhood heard it....fun...

Now I'm going to watch Vampire diaries!! Finally! It's been on break forever!

:/

Me and Vera, one of my closest friends, she's in Paris for a year now so I miss her quite a lot sometimes :D  But I'm going there in november so its quite alright :D

Sooo....I have no ideas for posts right now, mainly because I lost my phone yesterday (hopefully, I'll retrieve it tomorrow, apparently a teacher at school found it and took care of it..problem is the teacher apparentley doesn't have it anymore..and I'm not quite sure who he gave it to...long story basically..but I'm praying that one of my teachers has it and I'll be able to pick it up tomorrow at school) Being phone-less is horrible..especially when I don't know exactly where it is and what happened to it. I've been in panic mode all day...I'm a tad bit depressed about it..I need my beloved iPhone back!

Anyway..tuesday= no school, so I've been chillin' around the house all day..if it wasn't for the whole phone-scenario, I'd be very at peace right now... :(


Hopefully I'll come up with something more interesting a bit later!

Fall makeup look! (quite picture heavy...as usual..)

So today I thought I'd try something a bit different. Thought I'd do somewhat of a tutorial- guide to this makeup look. It's a really simple fall look that really incorporates those warm fall colours. (Btw. The reason my skin is red in certain pics is because I had an allergic reaction to a soap I used earlier today :S) Here we go:

1. I primed my eyes with my isadora Eyeshadow primer, then I applied a dusty pink colour all over my lid ( from Chanel trio in "Tamises") and a dusty rose colour on the outer half of the lid (bareminerals loose shadow in "rose")

2. Then I applied a gold colour on the centre of my lid (from my pashion palette) and then a medium-tone brown in my crease and a dark matte colour in the outer corner (from same chanel trio). Then blended well.

3. Lined my upper lashline with gel liner (Maybelline eyestudio - best eyeliner ever!). Then lined the outer rim of my water line with a brown eyeliner. Curled lashes and applied Maybelline ONE BY ONE mascara.

4. Applied maxfactor bronzer on my cheeks, and a raspberry pink lipstick on my lips (the colour is not this bright in real life).. maybelline lipstick in "Hollywood red."

5. Voila! Pweettyy!

 Hope you enjoyed!
Next time I'll probably take pictures of the stuff I used, but I forgot today. This was really difficult because pretty much the only disadvantage with having your room in the basement is that I only have one window ( a small one, quite high up...) and not much natural light, which made this quite difficult to make. I'll go upstairs next time :)
