It's a pretty awesome day today again, but since it is windy I decided not to go for a dress or skirt. I wore my high waisted skinny jeans, with a transparent black lacey-velvety top, plus my trench on top of that. My leopard bag and leather flats were also part of today's outfit and I feel like every outfit I'm wearing has those two elements in it. Whoopsie. I look ridiculously small in this picture since Eryk took the photos from above, so sorry for that :D trench coat - Pimkie skinny jeans - Bershka black mesh and velvet top  - Dorothy Perkins leather flats - Lasocki leopard tote - FOSSIL And as you can tell, the top is really see through so I basically had the coat on all the time. This day was kind of strange because first Eryk had to leave early to sort out some documents and then I left too to buy a dictionary for my exam on Friday. Then we met up while I was waiting for my friend Mhoraig because we wanted to meet. We are so rubbish at me...

I can't believe that the last week of May already starts tomorrow! It's totally crazy how time flies and I feel like I haven't achieved anything nice yet. I seem to be so busy lately but then again I don't get anything out of my efforts. And time still flies. For today's entry I wanted to show you my beauty favourites of this month like I usually do towards the end of each month. Those are the 5 products of this month:  The first one on the list is the Malibu Fast Tanning Oil. I have bought it some weeks ago and have only used it last week for the first time. If you don't know it then I recommend you go to a shop, find it and smell it. I am totally in love with this smell and if there is perfume that smells like this - I NEED IT. Well, the smell is a very summery one to me. It is a typical tanning oil smell in my opinion - coconut and vanilla like I'd say. It is amazing and I wish I could use it every day, but the weather in Scotland is ...

I woke up to see a very cloudy sky and was immediately disappointed that I could not tan this morning. And since the weather didn't get better throughout the day, I had to wear something warmer than yesterday, and here's what I chose. I thought it was pretty plain but still a bit rocky and cool, so I guess I might wear this outfit more often now. Sorry for those not so fancy photos in a rather uncool location, I couldn't be bothered going out in this weather again. faux leather jacket - Pimkie crochet jumper - H&M skinny jeans - Bershka tote - FOSSIL leather flats - Clarks What I liked most today is probably my hair that turned out pretty nicely I think, even though it was not the easiest to do with my hair. I wore half of my hair up in a braided bun and half down, that all got tangled in the wind, but nevermind. My nail polish is Hanover Square by Nails Inc. So, what do you think? The weather can't make up its mind and it starts to ann...

The weather today was so confusing that I didn't even know what to wear. In the end I decided to wear my faux leather jacket and my winter boots because it was raining, but it didn't seem to be too cold so I went for shorts and a jumper. pink jumper - Forever21 denim shorts - Forever21 faux leather jacket - Pimkie tights - Primark tote - FOSSIL leather boots - Clarks On my way to College it was pretty cloudy and windy but when I left College I met up with Eryk and it got so hot on the bus that you could get a tan after some time I think. I even took off the jacket and went home wearing the jumper only.  Also, Eryk got me the new Innocent Bubbles drink which he has seen before and I didn't yet so I#'ve been sipping it now for some minutes. I'm off to have a snack and my dose of antibiotics for now. -Olivia ~19.05.2015~

Today we got up pretty early, went to the shop to grab some quick food and then we took the bus to town to enjoy and not to waste such a sunny day. We just had a stroll around the city centre, a lot of fun and I am sad that the weekend is nearly here and I'll be working denim jacket - Levi's pink jumper - Forever21 jeans - H&M shoes - VANS bag - FOSSIL My head is always getting so flat when I'm wearing a ponytail, because my hair is too heavy. And I look weird. I love those two! The vlog will be up soon here: VLOGS Make sure you watch it so that you see more of today's cool footage! -Olivia ~15.05.2015~

Today I was thinking about products I really use so much that I could absolutely not live without them and decided to write a short blog post about them. I chose wisely, I think, and if I was not allowed to use anything else, I hope that those things would satisfy me. So, most of them are face realted as you can tell. First of all - mascara.  When I first started using make-up when I was 12-13, I started with mascara. For a long time I didn't use anything else until I started getting some spots and had to use concealer too. I feel much more confident when wearing mascara because since my eyes are like I often say quite small and in primary people even called me "Chinese" because of them. Well, to open up my eyes I feel like mascara works the best. My lashes are pulled up and if the mascara is good, like this Perversion from Urban Decay or Roller Lash by Benefit, they stay up all day and my eyes look more awake and alive. Even when I'm ill and have to go...

I feel a bit depressed because the weather here in Scotland at the moment is just the worst I could ever imagine during late spring/ beginning of summer. There are such incredibly strong winds that walking in the streets is a real struggle, the sun is only visible occasionally since most of the time the clouds take over the sky. The temperature goes up to 15 degrees, which is pretty alright for not fully summer yet, but it just feels like 5 degrees instead because of the terrible wind. There is no day I am waiting for my bus without being totally cold and shaking. It seems to me like last year around this time it was way warmer over here and I feel like being here is pointless. I am a person who needs warm days full of sunshine, and I wouldn't even mind really hot temperatures - everything is better than cold, windy and rainy days! I see my friends in Vienna or Poland wearing summer clothes, enjoying the sunshine, getting a tan and I actually have to wear jeans, a jumper and a ...

I spent my day off wandering around town, exploring a bit again since the weather was pretty nice for a change. I am so fascinated by Edinburgh's historic part of the city and every single time I am there I feel like I'm back in the medieval times for some reason. Today I even went to see a bit of the Castle, and I've never been before so I was very excited. I think I'd like to go on a Castle tour once but apparently it is pricey. I took some pictures for you and hope you'll enjoy them. In the meanwhile I'm uploading the vlog and will need to leave the house in about 15 minutes to pick up Eryk from work as we want to spend some time together before the weekend, since I'll be working. Oh, and here's a photo of my eye. I thought my lashes looked really nice today! I've used Urban Decay's Perversion mascara if you're wondering... HERE'S THE VLOG! -Olivia ~08.05.2015~

Today I wanted to talk a little bit about the remover I've been using since Christmas. Throughout the months I've found that it is really brilliant and that it is a product I would definitely repurchase at any time. The product I am speaking about is the INGLOT Waterproof make-up remover and it comes in different sizes, which can be pretty handy I've learned. I first got the smallest size, which is a tiny 25ml bottle and I've been using it basically every day since Christmas because I tend to wear eyeliner non stop. And I am surprised by the fact that you only need one drop to remove one line of waterproof liner! For this reason I still have about half of the tiny bottle left. It was also incredibly handy when traveling by plane because it didn't use much space in the handluggage liquids bag and as I said: A little goes a long way! Now this time, I've been treated to the full size of it, a 100 ml bottle, again from my amazing cousin who also got me the fi...

The last week was just so terribly cold, rainy and windy that I wore my winter jacket again! I was so angry but I've risked wearing ballet flats and my trench one day and it ended badly for me. It started hailing and snowing and I didn't even have my umbrella with me. I was soaking wet and cold as hell that I even went to ASDA to buy a jumper to wear something more than just my thin blouse and the trench on top of that. The weekend didn't seem to be much nicer, but it was definitely warmer, though still rainy. Today we woke up to beautiful sunshine peaking into our room and some cloudless skies, which pleased me a lot. My phone weather app also told me that it is pretty warm outside and once Eryk had to leave for work, I went with him to enjoy this beautiful weather once again. I went to do some more grocery shopping and came home about half an hour ago. And now, over to the outfit part. The reason why I wanted to show it is because I got a new bag. Yes, that's ri...

When it comes to skincare I am pretty bad in my opinion.  I never really do anything nice to my face in the morning, apart from my make-up. About once a week I do use my Clearasil Face Scrub that is amazing for my skin and I always feel so happy after using it and every time I think to myself that I should definitely use it more often but I never really manage to do so. However, in the evenings I make sure all the make-up comes off my skin and lately I've been using my Hydrabio H2O Bioderma for it and I am so happy with the results. It does have some problems with taking off my waterproof eyeliner, so I use my INGLOT waterproof make-up remover on the eyeliner to make sure everything comes off. But apart from that Bioderma is definitely my favourite brand for skin cleansers since it doesn't make my skin go read and the smell is neutral, so that I don't freak out because my face smells like mould or so.  Once all the make-up is removed I pat my face dry with a towel ...
