Musical Monday

Hi everyone :)

Wow it has been almost a week. It is so weird not to blog every day. I think I will most definitely return to that either this or next week. As far as studying for my exams goes I am right on track so I can take a bit of time to write blog posts again.

Music wise I am still stuck on the new Ed Sheeran album. So I will torture you with some more of that and encourage you to buy it!

The next song is just simply beautiful. It has become one of my most listened to songs on iTunes since the album came out.

And this one is the song that Ed Sheeran has said he loves the most on the album.

Enjoy. And I will try to listen to some new music till next week :)

Announcement

Hi everyeone :)

I have been telling you for quite some time now that I have some exciting news to share and today it is sharing time.

I have had this blog for over a year now and I really want to continue blogging so I thought it was about time to take this to the next step.

I am making my own website!

Yes there it is! So most of the days where you have not been getting a post I have been trying to get that ready for you. And I think it is coming along nicely. 

My estimated time of launch is something like the middle of July. I won't give you an exact date as I don't it to not be ready by than but vaguely it is somewhere around 15. July. 

I am really excited to be doing this as I believe it is a great way of showing that I am quite serious about this little space and that I love it as well as you guys very much.

So be patient with me and new blog posts and get excited with me about the new design. I really plan on making it the best blog I possibly can :)

Another little thing I might as well start telling you is that we will get a little guest blogger on this little space here.

A dear friend wants to share some of her thoughts and I offered her a slot on this blog because I think it would be great to have someone else on here. The main stuff is still coming from me but she will probably blog once a week.

She is lovely and you have all met her before ind various different posts and she has been helping me with most of the outfit posts. 

So she has already kind off been working with me on this blog but now she will be doing it a bit more actively :)

Modern Natural Makeup-kit

Hi everyone :)

A little while back I bought the 'Modern Natural Makeup-Kit' from Real Techniques. I have had it for a while now and I think I have used it enough to give an honest opinion.

I even took it to London with me and it survived the travel so I am quite proud of it for that.

But not only that obviously :)

None of you will know this, but I am not the biggest fan of primer. Don't know why, I have just never warmed up to it. However I do own quite a view eye shadows where it is advisable to use primer underneath.

So imagine my happiness when I first used it and noted that I was perfectly fine without primer.

The product stayed in place and was also easy to apply.

Personally what I love most about the 'Modern Natural - Kit' is that it doesn't just consist of eye shadow but also blush, highlighter, lip gloss and eye liner. So you can really create a whole look with it and not just an eye makeup.

Colour payoff is great, I am in love with the highlighter and the blush is quite subtle which I always love, since it means that you can really build it up.

And if you want a little tutorial on how to use it best, here you go:

This honestly is a makeup-kit that I would absolutely recommend buying!

Hi everyone :)

Sorry for not blogging for three days but I was busy with my special little project that actually has a lot to do with this blog. That and studying for my exams at the end of this semester.

So forgive me for not blogging but I fully intend to get back to it. Maybe not daily like I used to and maybe with less of a theme because that doesn't seem to work for me anymore but I will blog every other day and let you all know about it on Tumblr, Twitter and Instagram. So follow me on any of these and you will be kept in the loop :)

As for music: I have been obsessing over the new Ed Sheeran album that is out in a couple of days. So here are a couple of songs for you to hopefully get you as excited as I am :D

I know this one is from the last album but it is just so so so good :)

Also go buy his new album it will blow you away I promise: X (multiply)

Enjoy!

Theme Park

Hi everyone :)

I am fairly certain that all of you have at least once been to a theme park but who has been to one since they have technically outgrown them? 

Now as you know I am a bit of a sucker for childish things, so it should come as no surprise to you that I have friends who like to do some less mature things once in a while as well :)

So a while back my boyfriend and I went to dinner with an old schoolfriend of mine and his girlfriend. I have no clue how we got to talking about theme parks but somehow we did and decided that going to one together should be a thing.

We made it a thing and that is how we ended up at the gates of 'Holiday Park', taking a trip down memory lane :)

Upon walking in we were greeted with the our first opportunity to act a bit age inapropriate and made a couple of kids wait longer for their picture with Willy (the male bee in Maya the bee).

Sorry kids we just had to :D

And that is how the fun started with a lot of screaming and wetness involved. And a lot of silly pictures like these :

left: my schoolfriend F. and right: my boyfriend

We started our journey around the park off at the back, after the Free-fall Tower, since we figured a lot less people would probably be waiting in line for things there. We weren't wrong, so the first thing we did was go on a ride called Sky Scream and that name is well deserved.

I honestly don't know how the people working there do it!

This ride is fairly new and quite frankly I think it looks a lot less scary than it actually is. I underestimated it and regretted going on it the minute it started! That is probably also due to the fact that I had to take my glasses off an couldn't see a thing :D Riding a roller coaster without seeing a thing is a lot scarier than you would believe. 

I did scream my boyfriends ears off: Sorry!

my schoolfriend F. and his girlfriend A.

Next on our list was a big swing carousel.

And after that we went to a water show which was hilarious. Not due to its actual funniness but because the acting was so bad. We had a good time :D

our little group: F. T. A. J.

And don't ask me what that face is: I have no idea :D

We went on a couple of other rides and behaved a lot more like kids until we found our favourite thing yet: A water ride. 

We did mock other people on it but it was sooooo much fun. I don't even know why exactly but we did go on it 3 times I think. Every time trying to get wetter than the last. A. even wore a rain coat so her clothes would stay dry. 

You know those pictures that they always take on these sort of things? The ones that no one every buys? Well we did buy one since we posed for it and it is lovely memory of an amazing day. 

Next was another roller coaster that yet again I didn't see anything of and screamed like a cry baby. But that is kind off liberating don't you think? Just screaming, I find that to liberating, letting it all out. It does make your voice a bit hoarse though, I will admit to that. 

And what would a day of being a child be without cotton candy and looking like an idiot?

After having had yet again flooded our systems with adrenaline we thought it was only right to go on a calmer ride.

Yes people get excited it is Tabaluga and we sailed on tiny boats through one of his adventures. 

It was very relaxing and made me think of Sunday afternoons when I was nine where we would watch the show at my nan's place.

The park itself is decorated really cool with all kinds of characters from kids Tv shows.

The four of us had a great time and I think behaving a bit age inappropriate from time to time is a good thing. Why not release your inner child once in a while?

Summer Wardrobe II

Hi everyone :)

Last week I stated a little summer thing where I show you some outfits I would wear in summer. Mostly for you to maybe take some inspiration away from them :)

I am still working on good ways of doing that and this is what seems to work for now although I am always developing new techniques as I move along. Jut like I am doing with the new exciting thing I have planned but that is neither here nor there yet and will be discussed in a different post I promise. 

So without further ado lets get this show on the road shall we :D 

Go I am way less hilarious than I think, but that might be something I inherited from my dad :)

First Outfit:

shorts - cotton on

top - Zara

leather jacket - Zara

shoes - h&m

Obviously the leather jacket is very optional here depending on the weather but I have found it quite nice to have something you can take off if it gets hotter during the day. Simply because I mostly go to University pretty early when you can't tell how hot it is going to be yet. 

Second Outfit:

trousers - Zara

shoes - Vans

t-shirt - h&m

bag - borrowed from a friend

Third Outfit:

blazer - h&m

t-shirt - Johnny Cupcakes

jeans - promode

shoes - Vans

 I do love all the items in this outfit to bits because this works with mostly everything. You can switch one piece and the whole thing still works. Switch the jeans for short or leave the blazer at home and you still look good. 

Enjoy the weather guys :)
