Red & Orange

Hi everyone! I’m back in London after a relaxing Easter holiday. I hope you had a good one! I spent mine with my family in the mountains disconnected from reality (and the internet). We enjoyed days of skiing, board games and lots of good food! :) I also read the second and third book in the Hunger Games trilogy – very exciting! I’m looking forward to seeing the movie with my flat mate tonight! But being back in London also means back to the reality that my exams are not far away… Which means I have to do a lot of studying in the upcoming weeks… But it also means that I’ll soon be done with my degree! So although I probably won’t be able to update my blog much these days – in not too long I’ll be able to update regularly and let my creativity flow on the blog (after the first of June to be exact) And I can’t wait! :)

I picked up these bright lipsticks at the tax free. They’re both moisturizing, sheer and glossy – Perfect for summer!

I love the red Rebelle Rogue Coco Shine! The colour is wonderful and sheer which makes it an easy way to wear a red lip. It feels very fresh and fun!

YSL describes their Volupte Sheer Candy as “the lip stick that thinks its a lip balm” and that really is the case. I think this orange colour will look gorgeous with tanned skin! And it has a lovely tropical scent! :)

These gorgeous sandals from Zara are new in my closet. I can’t wait to wear them loads as soon as the weather allows for open toe shoes! :) I also found these pretty necklaces at H&M – a lovely addition to spring outfits! <3

Long time, no blog post… I’ve been busy with university and enjoying the lovely weather we’ve had in London lately. Yesterday I actually had my last day of lectures! I can’t believe I’m almost done with my bachelor degree! I just have to get through my exams in May… But for now I’m going to enjoy my Easter holiday. I’m traveling home to Norway tomorrow to spend time with my family and friends, go skiing++ :) And after that the plan is simple: Get smart, Get fit, Get a life! (aka do well on my exams, stick to a good exercise plan, and figure out what happens after May…) Wish me luck! :)

I wore this lovely floral jacket and bag out and about this weekend. The bag is from Andy of Style Scrapbook’s collection for Kipling. It is not only the coolest and most stylish camera bag I’ve seen but also works great as regular shoulder bag. Love it! :)

Hope you’re all having a great week! :)

I got my hands on this gorgeous blouse from Marni at H&M. I love the two prints together! Now I only hope that when I wear it life will be as lovely as in the commercial by Sofia Coppola <3 <3 My weekend has been great! :) My sister came to visit and we spent the weekend wandering around London, eating delicious food, going to the cinema++ These photos were taken in Hyde Park when we stopped by for a cupcake picnic in the lovely weather :)

Mini Spring Nail Polishes

Julie — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 22:58:55 +0000

I found that a great way to add a range of spring colours to my nail polish collection was to purchase Essie and OPI’s mini collections for spring 2012. I’m looking forward playing around with all the colours! :) At the moment I’m wearing Essie’s To Buy Or Not To Buy with a layer of OPI’s Pedal Faster Suzi on top. Pastel purple <3 <3
