2015, please give me...

This post is not meant for small things, like coats, shoes and makeup. I decided to to write about BIG wants. And my BIG wants are 3. Simple as that.


1 - Beach Vacation: as I lost my "student" status and began working, the weight of daily responsibilities and tasks began to take its toll. I am no longer capable to function after 4 hours of sleep, my sleeping hours are sacred and I long for moments when I have absolutely nothing to do. The idea of an "all inclusive" resort vacation is very appealing and I'm already looking into it for the summer.


2 - City Vacation: as much as relaxing in a white sand beach and swimming for hours in the sea may sound, I also like to explore urban sights. The idea of traveling to London for a few days grows more and more on me, so who knows? 2015 may be the year for it!


3 - DSLR Camera: this is one I've been postponing for quite some time. If all goes according to plan, I'll have one by september. As of the moment, my pictures are taken with my iPad and, occasionally, with my compact FUJIFILM camera. Of course having a better camera would improve my photos here on the blog, but the thruth is I long to use my own camera when taking photos of the orchestra during their concerts. Also, whenever I travel, the photographs would be so much better!


What do you want this new year to bring you? Do you have some place you wish to visit?
Regarding DSLR cameras, do you have any reccomendations?


XOXO,

M

Universal

Being an enthusiast of all things from The Body Shop, I'm always looking forward for new products and ranges. Recently, the brand launched their Smoky Poppy line, with Turkish poppies and just in time for Valentine's day. I have featured the body lotion on this month's wishlist, but along with the line came another product. These Velvet Sticks are suitable for lips and cheeks. The colours look vivid here, but I tested them in the store and was a little disappointed. The coral one was also on my wishlist, but I found the colour to be very light on the lips.  So what did I bring? See the black one? "Black lipstick and black blush?" Naah!! The packaging is gorgeous, but I'm a sucker for black and pink. Also the poppy flower print blends in very well with the logo! Here's what's interesting: this stick is called "universal" because it works for everyone. But not everyone will get the same shade! The colour changes according to your skin's pH

Colour wishes

With the months passing by and the light of summer holidays shinning brighter at the end of the tunel, i want colour. And light fabrics. I want the warmth of spring as it it slowly transitions into summer and shorts and high-heeled sandals. As always, I'm in love with the same brands. And I'm also trying to get away from my comfort colours and turning to brighter vivid tones, as yellow and red. OYSHO 's bikinis are lovely as always and it's going to be tough pickig just one. ZARA has had major improvements over the last seasons, making it hard for me to buy just what I need. The dress seems so fresh and the pants make me look slim and taller. Plus, anything with an oriental print is a winner with me! I'm addicted to bags; my parents have said this for years and I know it to be true. But how can I resist when BIMBA & LOLA  always make such pretty collections? Who wouldn't want a pretty red bag as these? Ever since I bought a backpack, I've ditched the sho

Hair Inspiration

It's been a little over a year since I changed my hair colour (and cut): from brunette with a long hair to copper with shoulder lenght hair. I then tried bright red, but for some reason, the colour didn't stick and I decided to try colouring my hair at home, using OLIA . The colour is amazing and it's lasting a lot more than my last trip to the hair saloon! But the time has come to visit a professional and have my hair properly dyed ( and cut). I enjoyed seeing myself with bright hair colour and that's what I'm going for. I'm just not sure about the cut, but i feel I should risk a "just-above-the-shoulders" cut. My volumous/fizzy/rebelious hair has a will of its own, making it hard to style, but thank god I bought a hair straightner! :) Should I risk a shorter haircut or keep it medium and growing? As for the colour, it's just like the pictures below: bright, vibrant red! Have a wonderful monday! XOXO, M
