OOTD: Casual Burgundy

 

Hey you guys! 

How have you been? Today's outfit is a little bit of a darker outfit. I wore this on a very rainy, stormy day.

I like wearing black but there's always the risk of wearing all black and I'm currently trying to avoid that! I decided to wear a burgundy T-shirt instead of a black one, so that I still have a bit of colour in my outfit.

 

 

I paired this shirt with a necklace in the exact same colour and denim jeans. My ballet flats have flowers on them in all colours - burgundy also - which was perfect!

Some of the flowers were also grey and my watch is grey, which is why I added a grey cardigan to my look. It may look like a little bit of a boring outfit, but God is in the details ;) !

Have a good day!

October favies ♥

Hello everyone! How are you?

October is coming to an end, so I decided I would share my favourites of this month with you!

It's been getting colder and when that happens, I always need a bit more coverage. These last months I barely wore any foundation or BB cream because concealer was enough,

but recently, I started to use my Essence all about matt oil free bb cream again!

 

Highlighter is something I never wear in winter, but I do have this shimmering powder from Essence. It's from their limited edition called "Hello Autumn" and it's beautiful. Very subtle and you might need to put on a little bit more to actually see some result, but I like this.

 

I like bright and pastel nailpolishes, but I tend to wear darker colours when fall comes around.

I've recently been wearing this nailpolish by Essence called "Hint of love".

And of course I've been going back to red lips. Dark red lips, bright red lips, it's all good, as long as it's red lips!

I have been loving my MAC 'Russian Red' lipstick all year round, but now it's come to the point that the lipstick is almost empty and I'm getting myself a new one soon! 

 

Winter is on its way which means it's very important to stay hydrated and it's very important to always take good care of your body.

I have dry skin so I like to use body butter quite often, but especially in this time of year my stash of body butters comes in handy!

I like to use body butter by The Body Shop. It's a bit expensive, I agree, but it works for me!

Thanks for reading!

See you soon!

 

My everyday fall make-up look 2014

Hello everyone! 

With a little bit more time on my hands now I have the week off, I decided I would make another video. It's been a really long time since I did a make-up tutorial, but I made up for that, I filmed a new one!

 The pictures of the make-up look have been on this blog already. I decided to put them in this post again because this is the look that I've made a tutorial of!

I hope you enjoy!

OOTD: Red lips

Hello!
How are you doing? I hope your Tuesday started off right! 
Today's outfit is one of my favourite outfits to wear! It's pretty simple, but I love how everything matches!

I wore a top with red lips on it. I got this on sale at H&M and I fell in love with it rightaway. When I realized my red blazer matched perfectly, I was very happy!
I did however, want another little touch to make this outfit special, like a necklace. I had a really beautiful lightpink one but it literally fell apart so I went to get a new one. Love how it looks!

Top: H&M

Necklace: H&M

Pants: H&M

Ballet flats: H&M

Earrings: New Yorker

Blazer: C&A

Watch: New Look

 

What do you think of this look? Let me know!

Manicure Monday

Happy Monday!

Here I am, ready for a new week with new hope and new nails!

I got a bunch of nailpolishes a while ago but I barely ever wear them because I don't have long nails. However, now I have new false nails, I decided to snap some pictures of my manicure!

The nailpolish that I'm using in this picture is from Essence. It's from the "Colour & Go" line, which is a cheap line, but a good one! The colour is called "A hint of love" and covers in two layers. 

The texture isn't hard to work with and the nailpolish dries quickly. I love Essence's nailpolishes!

That's it for today!

Thanks for reading!

Weekly Diary

Hey everyone! Sorry for my super late update, I wanted to post this morning but I was caught up.... Because of a cat. I'll tell you more about it later!

This week has been very interesting! I was quite busy but while doing some other things, I also shot the most beautiful pictures of this year probably. I haven't done anything photography like in a long time, but this week I felt like I had no other choice!

A lot of mail going out! I got this sealing wax set that I always use. It's like my own little personal mark, makes me so happy!

 

I got a lot of new things for my place this week. I got a bonsai, and I also got a beautiful white orchid! I love plants and I love having a few plants at home!

 

On Friday, I was so, so tired (my friends were as well) but we promised we'd go out with a group of friends and so that's what we did.

Getting ready with the girls was so much fun, I have never laughed so hard in my life!

And on Saturday evening I spent the night at my sister's house, cuddling with this little fella. He's her new cat and he is adorable. He fell asleep underneath a blanket, in my arms.

I am in love with this little guy.

What have you been up to?

EOTD: Fall in town ♥

Hello everyone! I'm back!
I have a new make-up look for you that I'm personally a big fan of!
I based it on a make-up look that I used to wear all the time, but this time I've made it a little more fall appropriate.

The look that I based this look on, can be found here.

I did exactly thesame to start off, but then I darkened up my crease gradually, that means I first used brown to make it darker and darker and when everything was blended out, I used some black eyeshadow.

 

 

My eyeshadow base is by Essence.

All the eyeshadow colours that I used are by MAC (Texture, Woodwinked, Espresso). The black eyeshadow is by MUA, from their "Undress me too" palette.

 

Next, I applied liquid eyeliner and two colours kohl eyeliner (all the eyeliner products are by Essence).

I used Essence's black kohl liner on the outer corner of the eye and their "Charlie seen in green" from the "Hello Autumn" limited edition in my inner corner!

Next I applied mascara. The mascara I use is by Essence.

What do you think of this look?

Have a nice day!

Fall pictures ♥

Hey you guys!

How have you been doing? I've been crazy busy recently, hence me not posting. 

Today I have some fall pictures for you guys.

It has been getting really cold, it has been storming outside and even though that's no fun, it is really good for pictures!

Enjoy!

EOTD: Purplish

Hi there! 

Today's look is a darker fall look. I decided to use dark eyeshadows instead of the usual liquid eyeliner.

I used two palettes to create this look; my MUA "Undress me too" make-up palette and my NARS "Mélusine" eyeshadow duo.

I started off by applying Essence I ♥ stage eyeshadow base on my eyelid. Then I applied tape on the outer corner of my eye to get a really clean, sharp edge. This is optional, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. (It is a really good guide for liquid eyeliner by the way!)

Next, I applied "Lavish" in my crease and I darkened it up by putting "Obsessed" over it. I blended it out and applied the purple eyeshadow from my NARS eyeshadow duo.

After applying and blending the purple, I decided to apply a little bit of "Corrupt", which is the black eyeshadow from the MUA palette.

The key to a beautiful look is to keep blending and re-applying eyeshadows until you are happy and you have a nice, gradual fade.

After achieving this, I applied "Shy" on my browbone as a highlight and I applied the silver eyeshadow colour from my NARS palette on the lid.

Next, I applied mascara. The one I used is by Essence.

This is what the make-up looks like on my face! I love it! It's so different to not wear eyeliner for once, but I think I'll do this more often!

Thanks for reading!
I hope you have a great day!
