Turquoise

I had this make up on a few days ago and I just loved the colors. It's not perfectly blended because I didn't had much time and it wasn't a special occasion or smth, but I just loved those colors!! And they were so shiny too :D:D Hope you'll like it! The colors I used are from the 120 palette. And if anyone is inspired by the make up I do, please let me know, it would make my day so much happier!

I'm busy these days with the Easter cleaning and watching as many TV culinary shows to find out new recipes for Easter. I also love watching youtube videos that show nice decoration of cakes :D I'm such a food addict :)) If I bake anything nice I'll be sure to take photos and show them to you!







I also want to thank Fashion Whore for giving me the " I love your blog " , she has one of the best fashion blogs! I love it and it's one of my daily places to find inspiration!



I will pass this award to some of my new finds that I love reading :

I'm lucky to live by the sea side...

These pictures were taken on Friday when we went for a walk around the sea shore (Constanta is a shore for the Black Sea). It was a beautiful sunny weather and I felt so good being able to do this. Just enjoy the fact that I'm young, I have a significant other and life is good on me :)

All the things I'm wearing are unbranded :P

Hope everybody has a great week ahead!

A new make up and the 40 beauty questions

Hy! I'm so excited for 40 beauty questions tag from Marce that owns the blog Eltrendebelleza.blogspot.com , she's a super sweet girl from Argentina, doing great make up! Visit and follow her blog if you want daily inspiration for make up :D
I will post my answers below. They're now very exciting, mostly because we don't have professional companies of make up selling here or at least I don't have access to it, so most of my products are low end. Especially because my mom sells Avon and I get all the products for free :D yey!!

Also I've posted a few pictures from today, we went to my bf's grandma because she was sanctifying the house, it's an Orthodox ritual, I don't really know how to translate it in English.

I took on a make up trend that everybody was showing this spring, the one with a wing at the outer corner of the eye, it was very subtle since it was a day time make up, in a neutral color (warm brown), but I will also be posting a more dramatic take on it, in a few days!

I wanted to have a picture my whole outfit but we were to busy and I didn't find the time to do it :(

Anyway, hope you're all having a great day!!

This is super easy to do, in the outer part of the lid I applied black eye liner and layered the color. I applied the same color on the inner part and it turned out lighter because I have no eye liner there ;)

I love this Accessorize necklace : X

Taking on the boyfriend trend

2 nights ago we went out with some friends for drinks and playing ping pong . I suck at it, but it's so much fun! I wore an outfit that included one of my bf's shirts. Plus red lips! It was hot! :))

Unfortunately I took the pictures after returning home, so I had the bedroom background and no mood for photos cause I was too tired. :P

Here are the photos :)

My bf's shirt Zara, skirt Sisley, belt Terranova, accessories Avon, platform sandals Leonardo (Romanian shoe store)
I'm not so skinny like most of the people showing their pictures around :))
Don't you think that people like the ones on lookbook.nu are like a secret society of skinny people?:P I wish I could be like them but I love food more :))


The make up was great, pictures don't do it justice :P

I love the Mango summer dresses

I was browsing mangoshop.com, since I'm staying at home, jobless, taking care of my bf's dog...My greatest thrill in life... And I am at least dreaming of the summer to come already so that I can wear something like this dresses, or even one of them. I am totally in love with florals! This trend is great! These are my fav models from the website.

I cannot affor looking into some other nice stores online because we don't have many of them here in Constanta and most of the great stores don't deliver to Romania (like Forever 21, topshop, h&m....) Yeah... Do I live in the middle of nowhere or what?...

Hope you enjoy these dresses :)

And thank you so much to everybody who's sending sweet comments, they mean so much to me and they make my days so much more beautiful!

Isn't this just lovely?

Super sexy

Sailor style

Elegant

Love this sureal print...


Kind of modern Cleopatra dress
This one would even work for a night time outfit

Comfy chic

Great print!

a simple blue make up

Hy, I'm posting picture of a very simple and easy make up with blue eyeshadow. You you're a make up addict like me and you're browsing all day long the Internet for make up info you might know that it's one of the biggest challenges to apply blue eye shadow and don't look over done or not flawless, etc. This is my simple blue make up, I just applied a very good make up base and then the blue with a little tiny amount of black on the outer corners and white in the inner corners and the brow bone, to give it dimension. I used a light pink blush and a nude lip gloss.

Of course it can be done in any kind of blue shade but I did it with a kind of cobalt blue, to match my blouse. Check out the message on it :))

Have a super fun day!

kiss

I used the 120 palette, Colossal Maybeline mascara, Oriflame eyeliner pencil and an Avon brown eyeshadow for the eyebrow


Lee Cooper blouse with no shoulders, isn't it funny ? :P

I have a thing with messages on clothes, my best friend once bought me a t-shirt that had: "Are you rich?I'm single!" :)) though I'm not like that (unfortunately ?... :)) ) and when I was in high school I even had oned that said"Sex, booze & rock& roll". So...you can see I'm not a person to be wearing decent messages on clothes :)))

I just wish to be able to feel the freedom that these pictures are showing me. Don't you feel it? It is absolute, silent freedom.

This is an old editorial (nov 2008) for Vogue Italia, pictures by Tim Walker, model Sunniva Stordahl.
