I really like wearing lipgloss, once the wind is not blowing of course, and I can never really decide which one to go for. I don't have many and they are also not that different, so today I wanted to compare and contrast two of my favourite lipglosses (if you can even say that)- one is more affordable, and the other one is more high end you could say. Soap&Glory's Sexy Mother Pucker is a fun lipgloss to look at. First of all- the title is funny and I'm never too sure if this is even appropriate but I just love that catchy name. This range comes in about four or five colours if I'm not wrong. However there are kind of two different ranges of them. I actually have two of the Sexy Mother Puckers and one of them is clear and it is that one that plumps your lips, so it kind of is supposed to make your lips look fuller and it stings. And that Sexy Mother Pucker is not the same as the one I'm talking about today. The one I'm talking about is also called a lip la...

I've done such a post already last summer when I was here in Scotland, using the same bag. But I thought since it's getting springy again, I would do an update, even though not much has changed. Still, I'm using this bag the most when going to town or to the shop. It's because the size is so practical, it holds everything I need outside the house, but I don't overpack it, what I usually do with bigger bags, which makes them even heavier (logic.). I also like the caramel, light brown colour of the leather and the fact that it has crossbody strap. It is also from Fossil, which is probably my favourite bag brand, even though I only have one so far, but I just like their styles so much and am dying to get more, but they are a bit pricey and I just can't afford to get one whenever I want just now at the moment. I unfortunately got a little light patch on the front flap ages ago and I have no idea where it came from and when it happened. It frustrates me a l...

I feel so sad about this whole food poisoning situation because it complicates so many things at the moment. I've been in bed on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Thursday I felt perfectly fine and started eating pretty normally since the doctor told me to do so and now I am so angry at myself that I did this because on Friday I was back in bed and so I had to stay at home today as well. I had to call in sick at work, which was already enough for me and I am laying in bed with all my French notes around me. I am terribly hungry, my stomach is sore and every time I try to eat something, the pain doesn't stop completely so I am totally confused because I just don't know if my stomach is so sore from being hungry or because I shouldn't eat or what.... It even makes me want to cry because I know that I have to go to work tomorrow and it will make me exhausted, as usual and the fact that I can only eat light things and not too much, scares me and makes me think that I'll be way...

I felt pretty well yesterday and started eating, which caused that this morning I woke up with the same symptoms that I had over the last few days when I felt terrible and stayed in bed or the bathroom. So, this means that I am not going anywhere today, I only popped into the pharmacy quickly and that was it. Also, I am again weak and just won't be able to work tomorrow so I found someone to cover my shift so that I can rest a bit and maybe I'll be able to work on Sunday. This also means that I will have some more time to revise for my French speaking exam, which makes me a bit happier. And, since I'm spending today at home as well, I thought I'd film a short video about my morning routine. I just filmed sequences of what I usually do when I have to go to College. So, if you want to find out how my usual mornings look like, go and see yourself! And here is the vlog! -Olivia ~13.03.2015~

I finally feel much better today after this terrible food poisoning and went to College since it was my last French class before my speaking exam. It was supposed to be on Tuesday but now my turn is actually already on Monday, which means that I actually have even less time to revise than I planned. I still have to learn a lot and for this reason I will stay at home tomorrow and make myself a cosy day in, instead of going out to explore, like I usually do. It's just because I work all Saturday and Sunday long and won't have too much time to revise during those two days and I definitely need some more revision for this exam. But, after College I decided to quickly go to Boots and Primark because I had to get a new concealer since I've run out of mine and also because I needed some new pairs of tights because I don't have any pretty ones left and therefore only wear leggings or jeans.  So, first I quickly ran to the bank and then to Boots, where I got the conce...

Since the weather is really getting nice recently, with more sunny and warm days and flowers starting to show up everywhere, I feel like spring is finally coming! The temperature stays at around 10 degrees and I really hope that it will rise a bit more soon and that the terrible wind will go by too. For this reason I felt like showing you the nail polishes I'll be wearing throughout this spring, since I really like the fresh, but delicate colours. Most of them are pastels and I think they are great for spring! I didn't want to go crazy and chose all the shades from my little collection and tried to show about 5- so we have six. At first I would like to mention the Ciate paint pot in the shade PP102 DOLLS HOUSE. It is a nude, shiny nail polish, with teeny tiny sparkly bits in it. It is kind of translucent but it does give you a very light pink shade. I think this is great for girls who prefer to keep their nails simple, but to actually have some detail on them. ...

Yesterday I cooked this dinner, which was very easy to make and it actually did taste nice if you like those kind of foods. However, this ended up badly for me. I will tell you afterwards - First, the recipe! As I said, this recipe is very simple and you only need a few ingredients. INGREDIENTS: - chicken breasts ( just how much you feel that you want) - a small jar of pesto ( or more if you are cooking for more people than 2) - cocktail tomatoes or plain ripe tomatoes - mozzarella - salt, pepper STEPS: 1) First you want to decide whether you want whole chicken breasts or diced breast and since I had diced breast at home, this is what I did. Preheat your oven to 180-200 degrees. 2) Take the meat and add some salt and pepper to make sure it tastes like something. 3) Take the pesto and rub a thick layer onto the meat. Then place the meat in an ovenproof dish. 4) Put it into the oven and let it cook for 20 minutes. Check if it is ALL COOKED. 5) Add the cocktail tomatoes,...
