All White and Goddess-Like

Hello lovelies! First of all, I have now selected the winners for my giveaway (by random of course) and they are Molly, Megan and Hanna! Congratulations to the three of you! Second of all, I am now in Cartagena - a beautiful city (well the old part of the town is at least) at the coast of Colombia. The weather here is very humid and very, very warm. I'm talking 35 degrees ++++. Anyways being here has made me forget my blog a bit - as I always do on holiday, but I am taking pictures and filming a bit all the time so a big - ass post on the whole of my holiday will be up once I get home.

Okay, enough rambling. The other night we went out to eat at a very lovely restaurant from which I ended up practically rolling home from because I ate so much. As a beauty-fashion gal I saw this as an opportunity to whack out my new, long, white Zara dress that I got the other day. I paired it whit my mint H&M bag, my new studded leather heels from Tennis (an incredible Colombian shop) and some bronzed-up eyes. Realised afterwards how greek goddess inspired it was but oh well, that's not the worst thing one can appear like eh? My mom snapped a few pictures of me before we left the hotel so you can judge for yourselves. And please excuse the awkward facial expressions...I won't have my mom take my pictures from now on, haha.

For the eyes I used the Maybeline Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze (US name: Bad to the Bronze) as a base, swiped MAC's Woodwinked all over and added some of MAC's Cork through the crease. Then slid some of the Rimmel Exaggerate Waterproof Eyeliner in Noir and added a bit of Clinique High Impact Curling Mascara to my lashes. Voila, goddess - like golden eyes. On the lips I patted some of MAC's Costa Chic and for a bit of a glow I patted some of my creamy highlighter from TopShop across the tops of my cheekbones.

Now I'm off to distract my self from the insanely itchy mosquito bites that so stupidly have decided to appear on my legs...

Lots of Love,

Change is Coming With a Dash of Colour

What's new you ask? Oh, I just graduated and am now done with my IB diploma. Ahh this is what joy feels like!

Anyway, now that I don't have school to worry about anymore, I will have a lot more time to focus on some proper blogging and I sure am planning some good quality content in the near future. I won't make a schedule because I never stick to them anyways, but I will give my blog some needed love and care. So you just stay tuned. I will also be doing some changes to my design and layout as I don't think the one I have now is anything special. I need to add a bit of "umph" and life into this little corner - don't you agree?

Alright so I have covered the two things on my mental list. Now I guess I should bring something a bit more interesting in this post as well. This weekend was the hottest one we have had so far this year I finally had the chance to put on my summer clothes without freezing my behind off, so I figured that it was a nice time to take some OOTD pictures! I have been longing to wear this bright orange skirt for a long time, and finally I could! Now, without further or-do, here you have it, my summer day outfit! Apologies in advance for my very pale limbs...

I loved wearing summer clothes again, unfortunately the heat went away as soon as it arrived and the cold air is once again back in town. Oh well, I enjoyed it while it was here :) Has summer come to where you live yet?

Lots of Love,

Summer Dreams

Blog, Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Weheartit, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest.. Where and when will my addiction end? Apparently not there and not now. My good friend (and blogger) Amalie introduced me to Polyvore yesterday - damn you for giving me another reason not to socialize...Anyways, after starting about ten different sets/collages, I finally managed to stay focused on finishing one (there's constantly new items popping up that you want to use in a new set which makes it hard to only create one...) and it is definitely reflecting my longing for summer! But as a beauty/fashion blogger I thought I could be fun to share, and if any of you lovelies would fancy following my polyvore profile to see all my future sets, then just click the link below :)
