NOTW: Manhattan, 45Q

Well hello there,

Karen is on holiday so I decided to stand in for her and do the nail of the week instead. As I didn't paint my nails last week it is about time I get my fall colour out. The polish I'm wearing this week is this one.

Favorite Fall Things

Hey,

So I'm back from Vienna and I thought today I am going to present you my fall favorites, as I find it quite interesting myself, to see different persons favorites.

Fall nail polish picks

Hey,

As Karen has already showed you her nail polish collection I decided to go ahead and do a quick overview of the polishes I tend to grab most for during autumn and winter.

Autumn favourites

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favourite things…

So, apart from the sound of music, which i love no matter what season it might be, here are a few of my favourite things for autumn:

NOTW: Boring plain nails

Hello everybody,

This week I wanted to give my nails a break.

Packing for a one-week trip

Hello there!

As I am leaving for a one week trip for Vienna tomorrow, I thought I would share some of my tips for packing for a one-week trip.

Review: Mac „Gingerly“ Blush + What we’re up to

Well Hello,

Today I want to bring you a review on my Mac blush in “Gingerly”. This is the only blush I own by Mac but I definitely plan on getting more in the future.

How to look after yourself in stressful situations

I’m probably not the only one out there. And I’m sure each and every one of you has experienced something similar already. But right now, school is stress. We have at least 2 tests coming up every week, not to mention the massive amount of homework you have to do. Because all of the teachers are so convinced that there is no subject more important than theirs. As you probably know, this is the time where you don’t take the time to paint your nails that often, when you don’t go and pamper yourself, basically, when you don’t look at your best. And that’s ok. But it doesn’t feel very nice going to school/university with unwashed hair or in the sloppiest jumper or with your face literally covered in spots. So here are a few tips and tricks that work for me to keep me looking acceptable during the stress-y periods.

NOTW: Chanel June

Hi there,

It's been quite a while ago since I posted my last blogpost. This one is only going to be a quick one, as it's that timeof the semester where everything goes crazy and you have all of the exams and everything lining up.

The shade I'm wearing in this picture is June by Chanel. I got this as a birhday present from one of my dearest friends, and I was really happy about it. At first I was a little unsure about the colour, but now I really like it. It's a nude peach (if that even exists), and it goes well with everything, particularly blue. It also looks really good if you have a tan on.

I will leave you now (got some more studying to do), but my next post will soon be up. It's about how to take care of yourself in a stressfull situation like mine right now:)

Love, xx

Review: Mac Lipstick "So Chaud"

Hey,

Although it’s I’m actually really busy this weekend, revising and studying for upcoming tests this week, I am going to take the time, to write you a little review, on my Mac So Chaud lipstick.

Currently this is the only red-ish lipstick I own. I’m saying “red-ish”, because really it’s more of an orangey red. This lipstick was my first ever purchase from Mac, which is only about a year and three months ago, so it isn’t all that old.

My jewelry collection and organization + favorite pieces

Hello everyone,

Today I decided on showing you my jewelry collection/storage and my favorite pieces.

During my summer break I vamped up my room which also included my whole beauty storages. So while I was on vacation in France I picked up a lovely jewelry stand to hold studs and dangly earrings, as well as necklaces and bracelets. I love, how my jewelry is now organized and open.

My nailpolish collection

I recently revamped my nail polish collection. Before, I had all my nail polishes in a box, which wasn’t so great because that way, I couldn’t see the actual colours, only the tops of the bottles. I saw this idea on line and totally loved it.

NOTW: Catrice; From Dusk to Dawn

Hey everybody!

So fall has finally decided to arrive now, which made me excited to get out my beautiful taupe shade. 

The "What to Buy" list/plan

As you might already know, we are students of a limited budget. Meaning although we might splurge on some products (Like the Estee Lauder lipstick), after having saved up enough money, we do not have a huge amount of money each month. Which, for sure, doesn’t mean that we don’t crave for all those pretty and oh so raved about makeup and skincare products.

Review: Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate, Intensity One

I promised to write you a review, as soon as I was able to say more about the product than just “Woah Tom Ford!”… So here it is.

The Parcel arrived Saturday and I wanted to unpack it immediately...But Karen and I decided to unpack our Contour kits together so we had to meet up which left me waiting for an hour or so, staring at this parcel actually wanting to do homework, well not wanting to, but you know.

Yes I know stupid things girls do! :D

The Sacred List

The sacred list is something Zoe and I developed after having watched various „what’s in my bag“ videos, and which we are still experimenting with. It basically is a list of what we thought was necessary to survive your everyday life...

NOTW: Catrice; Cotton Candy and the Eiffel Tower

Happy October everyone!

I hope you are having a wonderful autumn.

Today I was thinking about which colour to paint my nails for this week, but as I didn’t have a lot of time I just decided to go with a simple, fuss-free nude colour, that would go with everything.
