Look of the Day




Well, this is the look today. I'm wearing a St-Matins dress and a gorgeous Margit Brandt necklace. It's a real statement piece, but because it's made of a very mat black metal, I feel like it can go with just about anything. 
The lipstick I actually just bought today, it from Dior and is called "Elegant Pink". It is the nr. 351. I love it because it's a summer-y color and it goes well with my skin tone and hair. I think, if you're a brunette, pink is always a good color on you.




The eye makeup is a golden/shimmery dark brown duo from Maybelline, it's called "720 Brownie Gold". The gold in particular is genius in the summer! 




As you can see, it's quite easy creating a soft smokey eye with these colors. You'll have to excuse the eyebrows, I'm trying to reshape them, but the hairs have to grow out first, so for the moment, they're a bit of a mess..




I thought I'd just you guys a better photo of the necklace, it's just so cool, the photo doesn't really do it justice!

A bit of shopping..

 Just thought I'd show you guys some of the other stuff I got yesterday. I bought two Maxfactor Masterpiece  Colour Presicion Eyeshadows, one in the colour "Golden Green" and one in "Coffee". I wore it today and it's really easy to use. The applicator makes it so easy putting the cream eyeshadow on, and once it's "dry" it stays where you put it and the color doesn't fade at all! So I would definitely recommend it.



I also got the "New Beginning Scrub" from Ole Henriksen, which I used last night, and it is just so nice. Usually with the exfoliators I've used, the grains very quickly disappear, but this one you can use for a long time and they are still exfoliating. Also I love the smell, it's really fresh and smells like lemons. 

                                             

I bought it because I have the "Firm Action Mask" from Ole Henriksen, and that's really great as well. As you can see, I've used it a lot!

Oops, I Shopped Again..

I went shopping today, looking for something new. I've had my eye on the Chanel Fall 2011 nail polish Black Pearl for a while, and finally decided to buy it. Simply love the metallic trend! And especially love the chrome-ish look of this one. Anyway, got a lip balm as well, it was on sale, so figured why not. The Oilily lip balms never disappoints me!


I know the photo isn't the best, but I'm still learning how to use my new camera, so you'll have to bear with me.

Trying something new!

Hello Everyone! 

My first ever blog post - so exciting! I've thought about doing this for so long, just never got around to it.. However, in the midst of my exams, I decided to do something else than just read, read, and then read a little more. Perhaps not the most sensible thing to do, when you should be studying, but anyway.. (Seriously, hate studying for exams!) So, I created this blog.. I've been following my favorite bloggers for a while and I just find it so inspiring! So I can't wait to begin blogging and share my crazy thoughts and ideas with you guys. Hopefully you'll enjoy it as well! 


Love,
