Smoothie season

For me summer screams smoothies. I drink them all the time. I am obsessed with them so much that today i decided to make a whole blogpost just about them.

 I know that it's now super popular to make smoothies with kale or other vegies, but I (being sometimes a fussy eater) prefer the all made of fruits one. So grab some berries and yoghurt, blend it well and enjoy! Today i made a blueberry and raspberry mix, it was delicious!
And what it your favourite flavour? Make sure to let me know in the comments!

Summer collective haul

Sales time and I, have the love-hate relationship. I love the fact that you can finally find stuff somehow resonably priced, but it's just so exhausting (much more than normal shopping). I'm lucky enough that both my birthday and name's day happen during this part of the year, so i get extra money to spend.
Today I decided to show you some of my picks of 2014 summer sales. Bare in mind that I did not buy all of this in one trip, actually in (too) many trips. Also I do not always buy that much clothing, only during sale's time.

Bag - longchamp
 I was searching for a more casual bag for a longer time. Don't get me wrong I love zara bags but often they're too dressy for my everyday style. I love it and can't stop wearing it (wearing? not sure if you can wear a bag, but you know what i mean), it's super comfortable and cute. Also it was a part of my eighteenth birthday presents from my parents.

Sweaters -black & navy -zara, white - mango 
During school year sweters are a great stample to have in wardrobe. They make your outfit look classy whitout making much effort. A bonus they were complete bargains! 

Scarfs -white & lime/white - zara, blue - stradivarius

Jacket & sweatshirt - Hollister
 I already own a sweatshirt similar to this one in red and I love so when I found this on sale I just knew it has to be mine. Jacket was an amazing bargain and exactly what i was planning to buy this fall/winter season.

Trench - stradivarius, Vest - zara

 

Tops - (from top left) - American Eagle Outfitters, two from H&M, two from zara and two from stradivarius

 I know guys, I know. I went a little bit crazy with the tops, but I actually have already worn all of them multiple times and loved them. I'm the lazy kind of gal so a t-shirt, jeans and sneakers is my usual everyday look. To be honest with you I'm a little (okay, a lot) obsessed with t-shirt with funny quote and those zara rocks (they say: "don't be foolish rock music is the best invention ever" and my personal fav:"I know I'm not famous yet, but everyone knows my name and I don't know why") 

Top - zara

jeans - hollister, leggins - zara

Shoes - Timberland

I want looking for a pair of boat shoes, while still not being sure it i would like them or if I want to spend money on such a thing at the moment. They were kind of spontaneous decision. There was 40% off on second pair of shoes from sale. My dad bought himself one pair, so mine 40% off were a total bargain.

 

Shoes - Nike's outlet

Nike Blazers were my obsession for probably a year. I was originally going to buy a black pair, but everywhere I check they either didn't have my size or they were freaking expensive. I was super excited when i have found these babies in nike's outlet store. Bonus- they were also on sale! I decided to pick dark grey ones as they are super versatile. 

Uff, the end. I know this post is reeeaaallly long. but I hope you find it just a bit interesting. And what is your favourite purchase from summer sales? Make sure to let me know in the comments below.

How i have lightened my hair

I always was a blonde. But as i grew older my hair started to go darker. Last winter it was almost light brown, not blond anymore. And i hated that change. I was using john frieda's shampoo "go blonder" for about a year, but it couldnt provide the effect i wanted. In the spring i decided that its time to dye my hair, and it may seem silly to most of you, but i was a little scared. It just that I've never dyed my hair before. I was blessed with natural highlights and hair in good condition without much being done. I was scared that I won't like my hair after or that the hairdresser is going to mess things up (it just has already happened toooo many times). So when I have found in the drugstore L'oreal Sunkiss Jelly I was pretty excited.Let me just copy for you the product desciption: "Get the sunkissed look with Casting Sunkiss Jelly. The fragrant and nourishing jelly is enriched with Camellia Oil, for an oh-so-sweet soft sunkissed look. Its delicate fragrance makes application a true pleasurable experience. The soft translucent leave-in jelly gradually lightens and is designed to create a long-lasting soft sunkissed look. All this, and no ammonia." And I must say it does what it claims to do. For me the most amazing part is that it does not dry my hair as 'go blonder'. My advice is to put it in your hair before spending time outside in the sun (before sunbathing for example) as the sun makes it works its best. Below you can see my before and after photos:

 PS: a warm welcoming hug for every new followers and for those who are still here with me even though I'm a crappy blogger

Current obsession: sneakers!

Lately I have been totaly obsessed with sneakers and sport shoes (even though I'm not a sporty type). There is just something in them that catches my attention. I especially love the ones in bright colours. I wish I could buy them all, but sadly it's real life and don't need all of them. Here are some of my personal faves, which one do you like the most?

Arctic Monkeys - R U MINE? | MONDAY MUSIC

My obsession with AM is real and still strong. R U MINE? is stuck in my head for good and it's kind of amazing that even after listening to it milion times I'm still not feed up with it. And as it's only few days away from Valentine's day (aka Forever Alone Day) is there anything better to listen to than song about love?

"She’s a silver lining lone ranger riding through an open space

In my mind when she’s not right there beside me

And I go crazy cause here isn’t where I wanna be

And satisfaction feels like a distant memory

And I can’t help myself,

All I wanna hear her say is “Are you mine?”

January 2014 | THIS MONTHS FAVOURITES

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to present you a wide variety of things I have particulary enjoyed through the first month of 2014. Also with this post I'd like to start another mini series called friday faves. Without further to say, lets begin.

BEAUTY FAVOURITES

Rimmel STAY MATTE Liquid Mousse Foundation

I have been using this foundation for a couple of months now, and I can honestly say that I love it. I am one of those girls who prefer to look naturally than having flawless and doll look, so its medium coverage is just perfect for me. Mousse form makes it easy to apply. I recommend using your fingers while applying, the warm makes it all look even better. It has a pretty good lasting power, so it's ideal for every day. My shade is 100 ivory and it suits me perfectly.

                                             

Mademoiselle by Essie

After wearing dark reds and burgunds almost all the time through december I decided it's time to give my nails a little break. I tried my best in not wearing colour and I am pretty proud of myself how well I have done. I love mademoiselle for that bright pink undertone in it. It's your nails but better colour.

SKINCARE FAVOURITES 

Nivea Smooth Sensation body lotion with Shea butter

During winter time my skin gets extremely dry. This is nothing fancy, but I really like the smell of this lotion and it does its job.

Nivea mattifying day care

It is said to "provides deep moisture for pure and shine-reduced skin" and it really does. It smells fresh and clean. And gives you UV protection. Perfect for mixed to oily skin. 

FASHION FAVOURITES

Timberland Premium 6

There is only one fashion favourite and it sure has to be this shoes. I was in need for something to wear when the snow lay everywhere. I decided to go for the classic timberlands, even though now it seems like they are a must-have, because I liked how they look and that they are easy to style. But I would never guess that they're that comfortable. I am totally crazy about them and wear them all the time. 

FAVOURITE MUSIC

The Neighbourhood "I love you"

Through the january this album has been basically everything I have been listening to. I am deeply in love with Jesse's voice and with the climate of the music. At the moment my fav song is Let it go.

FAVOURITE TV SHOW

American Horror Story

When it comes to Tv shows I am an addict. I watch too many and too often. But there is no other than AHS that I'm obsessing over so much. Sadly the third seson just ended and left craving the next one asap. If you haven't watched it yet, you just have too. You'll get addicted and I'm not even sorry about it.

That's all I have enjoyed the most. Make sure to follow me on Bloglovin and Google Friends Connect!

Miley Cyrus - #GETITRIGHT | MONDAY MUSIC

You can say a lot of bad things about Miley, and even though I don't really like how she has been acting lately, as long as she's not hurting anyone I decided to separate the feelings for her attitude and her music. And I must say I really like few songs of Bangerz album.

#GETITRIGHT definitely is one of them, and gets stuck in head sooo easily.
