After some really stressful weeks, full of disappointment and sadness, I finally got a place at Uni! Things didn't really go like we planned them, and it is really sad, but on the other hand, it could always be worse, really. I had my flight back to Vienna two days ago and the journey was lovely, without any problems and I was home in the evening. When I got off the plane I finally could feel again what "heat" feels like. I loved it. Yesterday I picked up my mum from work and we made our way to university as I had to register as a student. We thought we'd be waiting there for hours, but in the end we got called in after an hour and half I think - which wasn't too bad. The only problem was that it was so hot that we were sweating and it was difficult to stand. But we made it. After 5 minutes of signing papers, I got my student ID and now I am officially a student of Uni Wien. Well, this seemed so easy after trying for two years in Edinburgh without success. ...

Today I woke up to beautiful sunshine and it actually was warm again! I was so happy that without thinking twice I picked my new maxi skirt and top and decided to wear that outfit today. I went for a coffee in town with my friend Joanna, so I also had a good reason to dress up nicely. I was never convinced of long skirts/dresses because I felt like I am just too short to wear them without high heels and since my knees are not good with high heels, I never got a maxi piece. However, last time when I was shopping, I spotted this beautiful tropical skirt and decided to at least try it on. And I instantly fell in love with it. So, here's today's outfit! white cami - Primark leather bag - FOSSIL maxi skirt - H&M I really like those cut outs on both legs - that's probably what convinced me to buy the skirt! I put my hair up in a ponytail since it was pretty warm and I also felt like this outfit looks so much better with a ponytail instead of my hair down....

Hello world! I feel so bad for not blogging at all lately, but I've been working over the weekend and it was generally a bit stressful since I'm leaving in two days. I don't have many things left here that I could blog about, since the majority of my luggage is already overseas ( and safe). But, I was waiting for the right moment to film a video about all the empty products I've collected over the last few months. I knew that I would be going away on holiday in July, so I already tried to cut down on my beauty products and when I found out two weeks ago that I have to leave, I decided that there is really no point in packing every single thing and shipping it abroad because I already sent 70 kg of luggage and this is just crazy!!! I only packed products that are still unused or at least not nearly empty and for my flight on Wednesday I can only take little liquid bottles since I only have hand luggage booked. I hope this explains the situation a bit. So, since I...

I always wanted to film some make-up videos but I don't have a good tripod nor good light to film such nice close up's. So even if I try to take make-up pictures it is extremely difficult to capture the make-up. I basically look very, very weird on such close up pictures and then I always decide better not to do make-up posts because I am just so bad at them. But today I thought I'd show you what I usually apply to my face in the morning and how it looks like after a whole day of running around in the rain, trying to find something without big success. To start with, I use the REN vita Mineral Active 7 Eye Gel around my eyes and sometimes I also feel like moisturising, so I also use my Tolpa mattifying face cream, but usually I do in the evenings. Then, I use my Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer in the shade 010 Ivory - I apply it underneath my eyes, on all the spots and red bits of my face. Once I'm done with that, I use my Bourjois Healthy Balance powder in 53 an...

As you may already know, I've had bad nails for years and even using conditioners doesn't help as much as I would need it to keep my nails pretty and at least a bit longer than just to the tip of my fingers. I've had gel nails for a pretty long time and I loved them but it also happened that my nails broke underneath the gel, so that the gel layers broke too and it was tricky to fix my nails again. I also tried some stick on nails around September last year but I didn't wear them for too long since I thought that sticking on the nails went wrong very often and it made me angry too. However, recently I've seen several girls writing about the fake nails from Primark. Since they are just £1 for 24 nails and the glue, I thought that this is really worth trying and I found two designs that I really liked so I took both of them home. Now, I only tried them out last night after work, because I was pretty sure that ripping apart cardboard will ruin the nails qu...

I have already spoken about this topic in the latest vlog, which didn't turn out to be a real vlog because I was ill and in bed all week long and then this topic came up that changed my life a lot again. You can go and listen to it here: VLOG . Or continue reading here... So, you already know that I came to Scotland from Austria last July just after graduating from High School. I basically left everything behind to live with my dear boyfriend Eryk and to study in the UK. Since I didn't get a place at Uni straight away, I got told to study at College for one year to gain more experience since this will give me more chances for next year. I've applied for Uni the second year in a row while still going to College. Now, College is over, I've finished with Advanced Higher French and Higher Spanish and was expected to go to Uni after summer. Problems started when I first got rejected from all my choices and I had to consider going back to Austria. For this reason I al...

After working for three days in a row I am so exhausted that I already feel bad for being so weak actually. I ended up with a flu, which is not too pleasant, but at least I don't have to worry about College any more and I will only need to come back to work next weekend. I hope I will be healthy again by that time. I just returned from my GP and the pharmacy and am just sitting in my bed after quickly taking outfit pictures outside with Eryk. I decided to finally post something again and I feel like outfit posts are my favourite and somehow they always bring in the most views. So this shows that apart from me, there are also others that seem to enjoy this kind of posts. When my mum was over I already mentioned in the previous posts ( here and here ) that we did some shopping and also on Thursday I ended up buying myself a new bag. Yes, again. I actually felt so bad for doing this that I was thinking of returning it the same day, but then again I would regret it even more,...
