2013 Favorites

Instead of doing my normal monthly favorites, I decided to do
2013 favorites! I have talked about almost every thing on this list except for
the real techniques brushes, which I recently got but I already love! I only have one
fashion favorite, which is my H&M skater skirt, I don't know how many times I have
worn it this summer and winter. I also have my Marc Jacobs dot perfume, my favorite
perfume this year. I also have my Ipad mini which i'm addicted to! OPI such
a Budapest, Nip+Fab body butter (read my review here), Organix renewing moroccan argan
oil shampoo & conditioner (read my review here), I also have my Maybelline BB cream and my
Burt's bees lip balm.
That's it for my 2013 favorties, I had a lovely year and I hope you
did too. I had so much fun writing this post and looking through old posts
on my blog. It has changed a lot since I wrote my first post last March.
Have a wonderful 2014!

The Carrie Diaries Inspired Outfit

I love The Carrie Diaries, it's my favorite TV-show

at the moment. Even though the TV-show happens during the 80's,

I still get fashion inspiration from the show, although sometimes it's

a bit over the top. I love that the costume designer brings a modern

twist to the clothing and Carrie's style. 

The look that i'm recreating is from season 1, episode 11.

I love that look, it's girly, colorful and it was so easy to recreate. 

I toned the outfit down a bit, I wore a brown/grayish coat (I don't have a

pink coat, but I really want one!) I'm also wearing a leopard scarf like Carrie's. 

My floral skirt is very similar to Carrie's skirt, i'm in love with it! Instead

of wearing a pink blazer and a colorful blouse I went for a pink cardigan and

a black top. I'm wearing polka dot tights like Carrie's but mine are black.

Then i'm just wearing black ankle boots.

Coat - Primark

Scarf - H&M

Skirt - H&M

Cardigan - Old Navy

(I bought it a looong time ago)

Top - H&M

Tights - Primark

Boots - can't remember, sorry! 

(This outfit is also not at all expensive!)

Miss Sporty Lipstick - Innocence

I'm back from Amsterdam! It was so much fun and

Amsterdam  is so beautiful. I did some shopping there and by

some I mean a lot. So you will probably see more makeup reviews

and OOTD, which I haven't really done, but I really want to 

add more fashion to my blog. 

Anywayyyy I bought this lipstick in

Amsterdam and the color is sooooo pretty, it's a light bright pink, but it's not too

light so it's baby pink. It's from Miss Sporty, which

I normally don't buy makeup from but I saw the color and I immediately 

wanted to buy it. The lipstick smells sooo good, like watermelon.

I haven't really used it a lot so I don't know for how long the lipstick

lasts, but it's really creamy. I would still recommend

that you wear it when your lips are not chapped or it won't look as good, as you

probably know. I will definitely wear this lipstick a lot!

November Favorites

It's finally December! I love December, It's probably my favorite month!
Since it's the beginning of December I think it's time to show you my
November favorites. I don't have a lot of favorites this month (only one beauty
& one fashion!) but I promise, next month will be better because i'm going
to Amsterdam! I can't wait, I'm going to shop 'til I drop!
Let's get to my favorites!

I have been loving The Pepperment Tea from 
Celestial. I like drinking it before I go to bed
and it tastes like peppermint! If you are a big
tea drinker you have to try this.

I bought this Dress from New Look last month
and it's so pretty. You can make it look really fancy
or you can dress it down. Everyone needs a
little black dress!

I have worn the OPI Skyfall so many
times! I'm not sure if you can still buy it
because it's like a year old, but I love
deep red nail polishes!

M&M Peanut Butter is probably my
favorite candy ever. What genius thought
of this?!

That's all for my favorites, hope you liked it!
