I believe they turned out fab overall!What do you think? 

Makeup My Way #1

Hello to all my wonderful followers!

Many of you probably don't know that I do makeup in my spare time... It's something that I have always loved and enjoyed doing, and it's definitely something that I plan for the future as well! I adore everything that involves creativity, so it's no wonder that I just love styling & creating different looks not only when it comes to clothes, but beauty as well! 

I thought I would show you some of the past looks I have done for a club where I work!

Last Saturday, the theme was Candy Girls! Katy Perry and her California Gurls video immediately popped into my mind, but I wanter something more! Something more fabulous and more... pink!

So that's how I came up with this super bubblegummy pink look, which kind of reminds me of a cross between Miss Perry and Nicki Minaj! Haha!

(This would also be great for a costume party!)

Personally, I love the outcome!

Definitely my favorite that I have done so far!

Products I used:

Eyeshadow - MAC Suave Intensions for the blue 

and MAC Dollymix blush for the pink,

topped off with blue & pink glitter!

Eyeliner: MAC Fluidline gel in Blacktrack

Lipstick - NYX Narcissus mixed with Strawberry Milk

Blush - MAC Dollymix

LOVE Cartier

I have always loved & admired the renowed French jeweler & watchmaker brand Cartier, and today I'm doing a post on one of their most famous pieces, the "L⊝Ve" bracelet.

Many people don't know that this iconic piece of jewelry has been around for quiet some time - in fact, it was designed in 1969 by Aldo Cipullo! 

It quickly became popular wordwide perhaps because of its provocative resemblances to a chastity belt, which it was inspired by. 

And what do I mean by that? 

Well for those of you who don't know, these gorgeous bracelets actually come with a screwdriver, and you practically screw them onto your wrist and lock it back afterwards!

It's safe to say that it was  originally made for couples as a sign of love & commitment, and at a time, Cartier only marketed these luxurious bangles to Hollywood couples like Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.

What's important is, these bracelets were designed so that you cannot take them off, and that is exactly what makes them so special and so intriguing! They aren't wide enough to slip on/off your wrists, so the only way you are putting them on/taking them off is by using the screwdriver! So unique!

And if that wasn't enough - you can also get the screwdriver in the form of a necklace, which means you can gift one of these precious bracelets to your loved one, while you get to keep the key as a sign of your commitment to the relationship! How cute!

Cartier has officially relaunched the Love bracelet in 2011 and now there are several designs & styles available! (Even a jewelry line consisting of rings, cufflinks, necklaces and watches!)

They come in 4 colours, yellow gold, rose gold, white gold and platinum, and some bracelets are even offered with diamonds & special coloured gems.

...I sure wouldn't mind one myself. ♥

At the end of the day, I have to say I just absolutely love iconic fashion items like these!

Which means - you'll definitely see more of these posts from me in the future! :)

Nails my way! #15

So I have become a huge fan of gel nails, and I have to say I'm crazy addicted to them! I have tried out several styles, but I just have so many more in my mind that I want to do! They are just amazing, last ages, up to 4 weeks to be exact, don't chip, fade, break, etc. I am simply in love with them. 

I will be doing a post on each of the different styles I've had in the past!

This time, it's half moon style!

I haven't had black nails in a while, I've been leaning towards nudes & whites & light pinks more, and that's exactly why I decided to go for black this time, because I just missed it too much!

I wear a lot of black & I'm a gold kind of girl when it comes to accessories, so these nails complemented pretty much everything that I wore! I just love them! And of course, I couldn't forget the cute little bow either! I had to add that as a finishing touch, haha!

Also - if you haven't noticed, I changed the shape of my nails too! It's now longer & rounded, not square cut!

The Golden Details

Good evening everyone!

Just dropping in to show you a detailed shot of an outfit I wore just the other day!

I was really feeling the gold as you can see, and I rarely wear silver accessories nowadays... I keep asking myself what is happening to me?! I used to be such a silver girl! Haha.

I am a big big fan of statement jewelry, and overaccessorizing. I don't care if it's too much, I love it all, and that's all that matters to me!

And that just reminded me that I still have a What's in my Jewelry Box post to do, which I wanted to post ages ago! Sorry... I'll get down to it, I promise!

What I Wore Today #27

Hello everyone!

How are you all doing? I've been having such a lovely time lately! 

I will be doing lots and lots of new posts tomorrow, as I will have all day to myself & my blog finally, so check back for more updates soon!

For now I wanted to show you what I wore today. 

I'm so happy spring is here, it's my favorite season and finally I get to wear all my pretty blazers! Yay! 

Today I chose this gold shimmery one ( shame you can't tell it's glittery :( ) with gold accessories & what else but my all time favorite - black! 

This outfit was just perfect for today, as we had a lovely lovely day. First we had lunch at my favorite restaurant where I had herb crusted goat's cheese with fresh grilled vegetables! It's the yummiest meal, and I just can't get enough of it! I usually have it once a week, that's how much I like it!

Then I went for a little shopping and coffee trip with my mom & my boyfriend and I bought some things at ZARA and H&M which I will show you all tomorrow! So much fun! And probably the best you can do on a Sunday! Besides watching DVD's & sipping hot chocolate of course!

PS - Excuse my crazy hair! Was in a rush & couldn't tame it, haha!

Gold sparkly blazer: ZARA

Plain black shirt: ZARA

Gold pearl necklace: H&M

Black & gold cuff: H&M

Black pants: ZARA

Boots: Bershka

Here's my super yummy lunch too! I'm obsessed with it!

Metallic Hair Accessories: Hair Cuffs

Let me introduce you my latest obsessions - metallic hair accessories! And my most favorite one has to be these gorgeous hair cuffs!

I don't really wear my hair up too often, I'm more of a loose curls, hair let out kind of girl, but when I do, I want to do it in style! And these ponytail holders are just perfect for that!

You can get them in all kinds of shapes and sizes, from plain circle cuffs, to gold panther, and even transparent styles. They are so in right now!

I especially love the first and the last picture, which features the infamous gold Zoe hair cuffs! It is so pretty & so goddess like! Reminds me of something you'd spot in a movie about ancient Greece, or Egypt maybe!

I'm on a hunt for these beauties, in any possible style I can find! And even though I own 4 styles of hair cuffs already (which I will show you soon), I just simply can't get enough!

Do you like them?

Sequin Skirt Love

I've never really been a skirt person, and I've never owned many skirts to be honest... until now!

When I was on holiday, all I bought were practically skirts skirts and skirts! And right now I'm obsessing over these sequinned versions, which are just so gorgeous, that I have to get myself one!

I do own one in black, but what I'm  really lusting over is the gold/peach colour! It's just so girly & so pretty! Absolutely perfect.

Do you like sequin skirts? xo
