GOSH GIANT SUN POWDER

Beauty
GOSH Giant Sun Powder (001)













Lately I've really been loving to highlight the heck out of my face, it's come to the point whereby I feel slightly naked without a dash of this gorgeous golden bronze on my cheekbones. I wear it to work, on my casual days and of course on the nights out too. It makes my skin look and feel extra beautiful even though I suffer from very bad breakouts and scarring. I've used this product almost every single day since purchasing it, that's how much I love it.

The product gives a very nice healthy glow plus it's suitable for all skin tones, although I think it looks even extra pretty on fair skin. It's versatile and can be used both as a bronzing powder or highlight. I like to highlight my face with it and so far it's worked out fine. I use the Real Techniques pointed foundation brush to get a smooth and finer looking glow, I always start small and build the glow by slightly adding more product. If you're feeling bold you could simply brush it on your eyelids to look more awake without doing too much.

As you can see this is a pretty enormous product which will last you years and years to come (unless you're a make-up artist or use it almost daily like me). It wasn't too pricey and you definitely get more than you're paying for so it's well worth the money!

Saturday Night

Ebay
Crop top - Missguided // Bottoms - Zara // Leather jacket - Vero Moda // Bag - Primark // Platforms - Ebay
Good evening, just wanted to pop by to say 'hi' and share this outfit with you that I wore last weekend for one of my girlfriends's birthday. When I was preparing I wanted to wear a skirt and an hour or so later after completing my makeup application, I looked outside and saw it has started snowing and at that moment the skirt option went straight out the window. Instead, I decided to wear these ripped and VERY comfy high-waist pants from Zara. They are all I've been wearing and I'm thinking about going back to get them in more colours. This was a perfect quick-change outfit that you can easily transform with either shoes or top; even as simple as a jacket/blazer. 

I'm currently at home sick, I have no energy, it's literally a freezing winter wonderland outside and this is all happening on my days off from work which from the looks of it will most likely be spent in bed binge watching The Godfather... I'm finally manning up and I'm about half-way done with the first sequel.

How Would You Wear | Fall Outfit

Gina Tricot
Hey! Happy Friday. Here's November's installment of our 'How Would You Wear' challenge, which is something we do monthly along with other few bloggers. Each month we all vote on a theme to style our outfits from and post the outcome at the end of every month - the 20th. As you can see from the title of this post, our theme this month was 'Fall Outfit' and here's what I came up with. Keep reading for more pictures as well as if you're interested in seeing what looks the other ladies styled.

Denim jacket - H&M

Happy Wednesday, I just wanted to drop by and show you guys this really cool and warm denim jacket that I got not too long ago. The first time I saw it, I fell in love with the fit of it and all but decided to  not take it home with me that day. It wasn't until my last day of adventures in Berlin when I went into the store and got it after thinking about for 3 days non-stop. I've been wearing it constantly since the day I got it and I definitely think the situation with this denim jacket will be alike the one with the red leather jacket I own from Vero Moda. I already have a few outfit pictures where I'm wearing the jacket so expect that soon as well as a make-up look featuring the Naked Smoky palette from the last post.

New In | Urban Decay Naked Smoky

New In
UD Naked Smoky - $54
I caved in once again and got myself the latest installment of the popular Naked palettes by Urban Decay, the Naked Smoky palette. This is the third in my collection, I have the Naked 2, Naked 3 and now, Naked Smoky. I bought mine in a store called Douglas back when I was in Berlin. I walked in there not knowing what it was exactly I was looking for till I saw this beauty. I instantly picked one up without even asking about the price and headed straight for the check-out counter. You could say that it was love at first sight. As always the palette carries twelve insanely pigmented eyeshadows in an array of incredible shades - also this in my opinion is their best packaging of all the Naked palettes; I mean how ridiculously cool is the floating smoke affect that covers the case? I don't know about you but I've never seen anything like it.

The Knit Scarf

Oh the joy! Here's the scarf I've been knitting like a mad woman for the past weeks. I love the outcome and I'm already planning on making another one, although this time around I'm thinking of crocheting one instead of knitting. You'll definitely be seeing it styled with an outfit to come later on. What do you guys think? Are any of you out there who'd bail on a night out on a Saturday to stay home and knit/sew with a glass of wine like myself.

I seriously need to step up my sharing-pictures-while-they-are-fresh game instead of posting them months later as I'm doing this post. Anyway I purchased these babies on Public Desire about a month ago, I was too lazy to share the pictures until something magical happened today where I photographed a lot of content for the blog including these pictures.
Also I completed knitting the scarf I told you about, I want to feature it in an outfit post soon. Okay, so back to the shoes, they are called the Jennie fringe heels & Serena aqua blue cut out heels.

A glimpse of Iceland

Today I'm sharing a couple of pictures from a road trip my friend and I took early October, D. was visiting me from Copenhagen and it was her first time in Iceland so I decided we do all the touristy stuff and venture into the countryside where we stayed at a summer house for one night, there we prepared ourselves dinner enough to serve an entire family, chilled in the hot tub, sipped on champagne and were way too hangover the next day. Nevertheless, we still got up and continued our adventure despite the depressing weather. Keep on reading if you're interested in seeing a glimpse of the Icelandic nature.

Inspiration | November Blues

Inspiration
November is here and we're two months away from yet another new year. This year has gone by frighteningly fast but I'm looking forward to coming times. I have a good feeling about it all. It's started snowing here and that means the return of the thick sweaters, chunky scarves and my favourite; beanies! Today's post is full of pictures to get some of you (and myself) to actually embrace the cold weather instead of dreading it.
