Autumn favourites

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:

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.
