Here’s what I wore Saturday January 24. A casual and comfy all H&M outfit for running weekend errands.
(Jumper + boots – H&M, jeans – H&M MAMA)


Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I liked the idea of this look, but it didn’t wear that well. The satin eyeshadows creased on me quite quickly, and the lip oil went outside my lip line even though I was wearing a lip liner.

The first month of the year felt both long and short at the same time. We’ve had very cold and snowy weather in Denmark this past month, which has been a bit of an obstacle transportation-wise. On the other hand, it’s nice that we still get to experience snow. It’s been a busy month at work, and this pregnancy is a little hard on me, so I’m looking forward to slowing down in a few weeks. But first, let’s talk about some of my favourite things from the past month.

Blue straight leg jeans (H&M MAMA): My first two favourites are both trousers. I don’t fit a lot of trousers these days, so I’m wearing these maternity jeans and the corduroy trousers below all the time.

Khaki green corduroy trousers (H&M MAMA): I love me a pair of corduroy trousers, and I haven’t worn a pair in a while, so I’ve been loving this maternity pair. Love the colour as well.

Three strand pearl necklace (H&M): I love a pearl necklace of any kind, and this three strand one from H&M has been one of my go-to necklaces this past month.

Makeup By Mario SoftSculpt shaping stick (shade: Fair): I think I purchased this stick bronzer in a Black Friday sale in 2024, but because I love my other two SoftSculpt products from Makeup By Mario, I never really tested this one out properly. But when I had limited access to my make-up collection during our move, I pulled this one out from my collection, and it was the only cream bronzer I used for about 1,5 months, and I’ve really enjoyed using it.

Kastanjemanden (The Chestnut Man) by Søren Sveistrup (book): This is one of the best books, if not the best, that I’ve read since I got into reading last summer. It’s a Danish crime fiction novel, but it has been translated into English and other languages as well, so if you like crime fiction, I definitely recommend you check this book out. After I finished the book, I watched the TV series, and it was absolutely great as well.


Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. My eye look is a mix of two Natasha Denona Mini palettes, the Mini Triochrome and the Mini Pastel, and I think the two palettes worked together very well.

It’s time for the first Black Friday haul from last November. This is a collective indie beauty haul, and it includes orders from Oden’s Eye, GlossGods Cosmetics, Monolith, and Lethal Cosmetics.


The Oden’s Eye Ice Crystal palette wasn’t on sale, but it launched for Black Friday. This big palette format is not my favourite from the brand, but I loved this look that I created with the palette.

The only thing I actually bought in the Oden’s Eye Black Friday sale was this pretty bracelet.


And then I got some free make-up brushes (a blush brush and a detail crease blender brush) and a free tote bag with my order.

I’ve had my eye on the GlossGods Cosmetics Dancing Lights palette ever since it launched (I think it was their 2024 holiday palette), but I didn’t pick it up initially. I was very happy to see it back in stock and on sale for Black Friday, so I picked it up together with the 2025 holiday palette, Starry Skies. I also got another shade of the Jelly Drip Sticks in the shade Catch My Drip.



I’m wearing the Starry Skies palette here, and the Dancing Lights palette here.






There were a lot of things I really wanted in the Monolith Black Friday sale, but sadly something went wrong, when I was trying to pay for my order, and when I finally got it fixed, most of the things I wanted was sold out and the sale was over. However, they put a smaller amount of items up for sale again a few days later, and I managed to get the Simply Posh Cosmetics Black Cherry palette and Down to Earth palette. The Gingerbread Bakery palette wasn’t on sale, but a part of the new launch for Black Friday.


I hadn’t made an order from Lethal Cosmetics in ages, but I was intrigued by their new palette called Serpentine, which launched for Black Friday. I was a bit disappointed in the palette when I first wore it though.


In the actual Black Friday sale on Lethal Cosmetics’ site, I picked up the Magnetics face powder in Floret, which is a shade I’ve had on my wishlist for a very long time, the Pixeled lipgloss in Matrix, and two of the Dexter nail polishes in Modus Operandi and Slice of Life.


Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. For a black and grey eye look, I think this is quite pretty.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wanted to do another eye look with the Nomad Cosmetics Pacific Northwest intense color & chrome palette, because it’s such a pretty palette. I think these tones of green look so pretty with the brown cheek and lip.
