Package haul | Blogmas 2014

Hi lovelies,

Yesterday I got a package from my dear friend Patrice. She was in Canada earlier this year and I asked her to pick up the Naked 3 palette for me, which she posted to me and it arrived yesterday. However, upon opening the package I found a few more goodies!

The lovely Naked 3 palette that I've been waiting for since its launch! It's so beautiful and I can't wait to do looks with it!

She gave me this beautiful bracelet. The infinity symbol is one of my favourites, and the band is a lovely turquoise :)

She also sent me this compact powder that I've never heard of - but she says it's her new favourite! Super excited to try this!

I also received this beautiful blush! it's called heat wave and the last two items are from Essence.

I've used Essence products before and they are pretty good in quality. Bought all my other things in Croatia and I've not seen them in Sweden at all! Shall be interesting if I fall in love to see where I find these products!

More eBay packages | Blogmas 2014

Hi lovelies,

So I came home today to two more packages from eBay! Let me tell you, those small cute paper packages get me super excited! Today was a delivery of two Harry Potter things and I'll show you which ones they were below!

This gorgeous wrap around bracelet (that I've also ordered in another colour) has the Deathly Hallows symbol on it as  as two owl and The Golden (silver) Snitch. The band is some sort of pleather material and it looks really nice one the wrist. Will probably wear this one tomorrow!

The second thing is a necklace and it's of the Hogwarts Houses and their animals in one Hogwarts Crest. It's really pretty and even though it's gold, and I'm usually not a gold person, I can see myself wearing it! 

P.s. My Whovian friend and I shared our Tardis necklace today and I walked around feeling like a nerd and a 10 year old all rolled in one! Best feeling ever! ;)

Nerdy accessories | Blogmas 2014

Hi lovelies! 

So a few days ago my first ever order from eBay came in the mail. I was super excited as the earliest expected delivery day on all of my items were 17th December I wasn't expecting anything to arrive before then!

If you follow me on Instagram you'll know exactly what arrived, but I'll let the rest of you in on what it was!

A Deathly Hallows necklace that is jus so pretty! It's at an odd length compares to what I'm used to as it tend to fall inside my tops and chill my boobs - uncomfortable! But I'll figure out how to wear this asap! 

Today I was happy to walk down the stairs and find a second little package on our counter! Excitement feels queued and I just tore the thing open to reveal my two Doctor Who necklaces!!!

The first one is of the Tardis key and I'm super pumped about this one!! It's the key that belonged to the seventh doctor and even though I haven't seen the Old Who it still gets me excited. Besides, all the New Who Tardis keys look just like normal boring keys so this one contains much more awesome in my books!

It has this star sign pattern on the back and I'm dying to find out if it means something specific or just manufactured that way? Can someone tell me?

The second Doctor Who necklace is this Tardis one. It is supposed to be for couples and lovers but since I don't have one of those I'm giving the other half to my fellow Whovian who I made into a Whovian. We just need to figure out who gets which half! 

I'm a happy nerd today and I'm going to get something to eat and then proceed with the rest of my day!

Nails | Blogmas 2014

Hi lovelies!

Just wanted to show you what's on my nails right now. I think they are beautiful and I hope you'll agree! :)

Don't mind my cuticles and nail beds... This is what happens during the colder months! The blue polish is Revlon Chroma Chameleon in Cobalt and the glitter is Essie On a Silver Platter.

What do you think? A beauty isn't it? :)

Makeup Love | Blogmas 2014

Hi lovelies,

Thought I'd share two makeup favourites with you. One that I just ran out of and one that I recently purchased!

The one that I've run out of is by Lumene and it's their mattifying and retexturizing primer. 

It works amazingly well and mattifies the skin as well as fills in the biggest pores. It has done wonders for my base makeup theology the years and I'm very thankful. Unfortunately, when I ventured out to restock they were out of stock in the store! So right now I'm trying out a new primer from NYX that I'm hoping will do the trick!

My next favourite is by Warpaint. Now, can I ask how their logo has any connection to the word Warpaint? It's a W and a 7.... I don't get it but I'd love for people to tell me!

I bought their In The Buff palette the other day and tried it out this morning with my makeup. It gave a lovely result with great lasting power! I'm very impressed and excited to try the other Warpaint palette that I bought!

Look at all those lovely nudes! It's definitely a Naked 2 knock-off but it also does a very good job for a fraction of the price! I bought mine at Rusta, but if you don't have one near you I know they stiok them at craycray.se. I guess that they have them in other countries too but I don't know for sure!

I have some exciting stuff happening very soon in my life and I can't wait to share it with my Blogmas readers!

Lena Meyer-Landrut | Blogmas 2014

Hi Lovelies,

You know when you listen to an artist, and you love their every song and follow their every move and sing along to everything? And then after a while you kinda forget about them? And then some time passes and you rediscover them?

Yes, that's what has happened to me. I rediscovered Lena the other day and now I have major hair envy. Today I also have rediscovered her music and OH MY GOD! I LOVE IT!!!

Her single Stardust is on repeat and it is bloody amazing! And to make it even more fun she's releasing a new album in 2015!! Get excited with me!!!

Yes, I might be addicted to watching her on The Voice Kids Germany because she is so darn cute!! Seriously, cannot express how in love I am with this person right now!

Mr. Arrow Key is another one of her songs that I really like! I especially like the art for this song as my hair envy is going nuts!!

Here is a pic from The Voice Kids auditions that I keep looking at just to see her reactions!
I am also trying to brush up on my German skills to understand what she says in interviews and things like that so having Lena as my Woman Crush is definitely not bad! ;)

Hair Envy | Blogmas 2014

Hey lovelies,

I've spent a good portion of today watching The Voice auditions and I got serious hair envy going on right now!

In The Voice Australia they have Delta Goodrem as a judge - have you seen this woman?! She's always been a looker, but jeez - it's like she's photoshopped or something!! She's so pretty it's insane! And her hair is like Disney Princess Hair! Oh my lord, what I wouldn't give for that hair!! 

So gorgeous!!

And then we have The Voice Kids Germany... And they just happen to have Lena Meyer Landrut as a judge and this girl has been on my radar since she won ESC - but oh my god has she changed and DAAMN I want her hair!! Scratch that, I want to be her! Gorgeous from head to toe and the sweetest person ever according to what I've seen!

 

Like, I need my hairdresser on the phone stat - can we make this happen, please?!!
