September Favourites | Beauty

Image
Hello everyone! I can't believe September is nearly over! I only did the August Favourites some time ago and it turns out it wasn't actually that recently. (watch it here !) Today I'm back again with some new products that I think are mostly pretty autumn-related, so let's start! After emptying my previous shower gel, I took the Le Petit Marseillais shower gel out of the cupboard again and basically started using it again after having a break of it. It smells so refreshing and it just makes me feel like I'm somwhere were peach and nectarine juice is produced or something. It also reminds me so much of summer and when I got it and so on. I really need to get some more of it once I'm in Poland again, because those are just brilliant! ( They also come in a bigger size) Next I got myself a new perfume because my Escada one ( which is my absolute favourite ) is empty, and it makes me sad. I saw this in a drugstore and it was actually in the clearance a

My OOTD: Autumn Patterns

Image
Today in the morning I went to some shops and it was so sunny and pretty warm, with a bit of fresh air, but on my way home in the afternoon the sky got so grey that I was sure the rain was about to pour down. But it didn't and now it is nice again. My outfit turned out to be good for the weather because I didn't freeze nor sweat, which is great. PS: Today is not my best day for taking good pictures. I hope you forgive me. This was my outfit when I first left the house today: tartan flannel-like shirt - Esprit black top - H&M skinny jeans - H&M messenger bag - Superdry shoes - VANS  And when I left the house the second time today, I took this bag. leopard tote - FOSSIL I also wore my Love Moschino sunglasses because of the bright sun in the morning. I like them so much and they are by far the nicest sunglasses I've ever had! sunglasses - Love Moschino I hope you all had a good start into the week and I am also very sad for not

My OOTD: High Waisted Jeans and Crops

Image
Today I wore this outfit, which turned out to be a bit too much once the sun came out and it got really hot. I still liked it though and it just a simple go-to look, I think. see through floral crop blouse - Miss Selfridge black crop top - Primark high waisted skinny jeans - Topshop leather ballet flats - Lasocki leopard tote - FOSSIL I finally got a pair of jeans that fits me perfectly and I am so happy! However, I had to first make them a bit more fitted once I got them- but I did it and now I absolutely love those jeans! What do you think about the fit?? The shoes and bag are just the same as yesterday but I thought they'd be the best to match the outfit.  (check here ) I like this outfit a lot and hope that I'll get my hands on a really thick black cardigan that will be good enough to wear with everything ( also this outfit!) once it cools down. Have a nice day everyone and don't forget to let me know what you think about today's OOT

My OOTD: Velvet Skirt And Leo-Bag

Image
It was pretty warm today and I decided not to wear tights and also to wear this skirt. I am absolutely in love with it because it just fits perfectly! It is made of 98% cotton and it is just so soft and velvety! It is also in a beautiful dark purple colour and has two pockets in the front but none in the back. I was thinking of doing this post another day but my dear Koko requested it so I had to do it now :D Those photos are not great because of the light, but you get an idea of the look :) dust pink blouse - H&M purple fitted skirt - Moschino leather ballet flats - Lasocki leopard tote - FOSSIL lipstick - AVON A cheeky selfie :)                                               Another selfie... As you can tell the skirt is pretty fitted and I often have a problem with high waisted skirts because I have a pretty slim waist. I got those shoes back in April as my Birthday gift, but never really got to wear them this summer. And my make-

Summer Empties ( Face, Hair, Teeth & Body)

Image
Today I'm back with an Empties- post because I just realised how many things I've hoarded over the last weeks. Let's just start and try to keep the post as short as possible. I've used a shoe box for now instead of a bag because I find it more handy. HAIR I've used up this big 700ml bottle of my favourite Pantene Pro-V 2in1 Smooth&Sleek shampoo that works just simply the best. I've been writing about this product so many times that I guess you probably all already know it. It makes my thick hair look and feel clean, which not all shampoos do. It also doesn't make it tangled or frizzy or anything - it just does what I want. Next we have two L'Biotica Biovax hair masks that I've bought at the seaside back in July. I like to use a hair mask once a week when I've got the time, but those are just miracles! My hair is so soft and silky and full and it looks just so perfect! I think I only have one more left at this moment and defini

A Cosy September Evening

Image
Summer becomes more and more a happy memory and autumn is coming faster than expected. It was super hot and then it suddenly cooled down pretty much, which shocked me a bit. I've heard that next week will be a warmer one again but after that I think autumn will really start. On some of those days I felt like just sitting in bed all day long, wrapped up in a cosy blanket, staying warm and happy. Today I wanted to tell you quickly what I like to do on rainy, chilly days, when I really don't want to leave the house, or when I don't have anything better to do than just staying in my room. The most important part of cosy autumn evenings is probably a good cup of tea for me. Being in chilly Scotland for a year, I used to drink SO much tea! I drank from 5 to 6 cups at least throughout the day and I was pretty much addicted to it. It kept me warm and hydrated, I preferred to drink my favourite Twinings Earl Grey, to eating unnecessary snacks. I could seriously only drink te

August's Beauty Favourites

Image
I can't believe that the first week of September is already over and Summer is pretty much gone now. I felt like doing an August Favourite's post on beauty but didn't get to do it until now, so I hope you won't be too confused since it's a biiit late for that Maybe you'll find it my reviews helpful though. :) As you can see, I've collected a few things that I kept using over and over again during the Summer months, and especially during August. Starting with the first product top left: It's my beautyuk eyebrow kit which I got ages ago and used occasionally in the beginning. With time however, it got a product I've been using about twice a week or so. I have pretty weird eyebrows because the first half of them gets really out of control and then the second part kind of never grows. So my second half of brows is very thin and looks really bad - like 90's eyebrows you could say. Now over Summer, I feel like that thin part got a bit lighte

My OOTD: Day In Town With The Family

Image
My dad is in Poland over the weekend so it's only ,my mum, brother and me at home for now. Since Noah starts school on Monday we thought it would be nice to go for a nice walk together before all the stress begins. I'm sure once school and uni starts for us, it will be pretty difficult to arrange something nice with the whole family. We also met up with my mum's best friend and her daughter and went for some lunch and as I said before, I walk around the busy city centre and some shops too. It's pretty cool and windy today and it also started raining a bit so then we knew it was time to go home and spend a cosy afternoon in. Also, me and my mum were both wearing heels and our feet got so sore that we were happy to be on our way home. I actually had to take off the shoes near the area we live and walk home barefoot. Amazing. terracotta vest - Forever21 long blouse with horse print - H&M thin belt - Primark black skinny jeans - Bershka black faux leather

Back After A Year | Impressions

While being in Scotland for a year, living in Vienna has changed for me. Sometimes I walk out of the house and am confused about how to do something  - even if it's something I've been doing on a daily basis throughout my whole life. I thought I'd give you some examples to show you how different those two cities are and to let you know what I prefer. This is a long post with lots to read, so better grab yourself a cup of tea! :) PUBLIC TRANSPORT Public transport is probably the first topic I can think of when I get asked about how life is like in the UK. I have to say that I was pretty annoyed with the system in Edinburgh. It's true that there are so many different bus services and there's even a tram( that only has one route), but that was still a letdown for me. Going to College took me usually about 40 to 50 minutes because I had to take two buses and they only come every 10 minutes if not even later at some points. Going back home was even worse because of t
