A change in the weather

Today has been a peculiar day with several events that have held me occupied; buying presents, running errands, sharing lunch with a friend I haven't had the chance to catch up with for quite some time - which was delicious. For the record, it was time well spent.

When I got home, my brother and I decided to go for a walk around a neighbourhood and took two pictures. I don't even know where to begin because of the differences. Seeing how something changes in an hour blows your mind. It makes you see things from another perspective; everything is temporary - just like the heavy dark clouds taking over the sky and the light breaking into vibrant colours. x

Stockholm

 

Last Saturday I was walking down the crowded yet fashionable streets in Stockholm. I love that city. I am not there quite often, but when I am; I make sure I go to every single store. The shopping is amazing, even though I did not bring home that much. All I bought was this lipstick from MAC, the MAC 217 brush, a Longchamp bag which I will show some other time and navy cigarette pants from Zara. x

Make Up Rant

Make up is something I love and these goodies are some of my favorites.

 The Chanel foundation is my go-to since my skin is on the dryer side. It goes on smoothly and leaves a beautiful finish (my colour is B20). Might dedicate an entire post to it because I have so much to say about this product.. The Chanel 'lipstick' is in the colour Sourire and is more of a sheer lip balm. The consistency is light and very hydrating. The bronzer is also from Chanel. It is the most subtle bronzer that I have used so far. You get a fair amount of product in that container and I can guarantee you it will last forever. Dandelion from Benefit is a product I fell in love with at first sight. It looks way too dark when you open the package, but when you put it on your cheeks it's a perfect shade of pink with a hint of sparkles here and there. I'm not even going to talk about The Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette . I am sure you have heard people rave about this one and the Naked 1 & 3. They have their reasons and I understand why they do so. Moving on to mascara. This one's hard, really hard. I find myself reaching for the Maybelline one most days. I have a love-hate relationship with it. Some days it makes my lashes look  marvelous and other days it's like nah. I don't know what to do other than go hunting for a new one. Last but not least we have the Real Techniques brushes. So far I have only used them for a month and they do their job. They are good, but I have to give them another month or so before I truly make up my mind. They come in a set of four and I have only used their buffing brush and their contour brush. 

These products are always changing, but these are the ones I stand my ground on or find myself using more than others. If you have tips on volouminus mascaras then feel free to tell me about it. I would love to try new ones! x 

Hello

I have finally decided to give this blog-thing a go. I've never been the person that sits behind my computer screen and writes about my life. After 17 years, I thought I'd try to share my thoughts and opinions with you and show you the little things I enjoy in life. This won't be a specific themed blog, because I think it'll be boring in the end.

Like I said, I am 17, going on 18. I live in Sweden, but I'd love to move to London in a couple of years.    The city has always fascinated me, maybe it's because of the amount of people that live there or all of the beautiful buildings?

I am very passionate about makeup, and like trying new things, but I don't wear it everyday. Fashion is something I adore, quite secretly I'd like to say. I love dressing up and building up my wardrobe and displaying my personality in the clothes I wear.

This is just something I enjoy, as-well as talking in the middle of the night about anything that comes across my mind and walking around outside whilst enjoying the atmosphere that surrounds me.

Spending time on this mean machine is very addicting, but it's not always that I find myself doing something productive. When I'm not surfing the web, I watch movies, shows, read books and study... I'm addicted to all those things that can put twists in my mind. My addiction for American Horror Story has gotten to the point where I think I need help.  It's not exactly the happiest show, but oh well. I get easily addicted to shows and end up watching an entire season in one day. x
