5 favourites – May

The last official month of spring is over by tomorrow, and summer is officially here (hopefully the summer weather will arrive as well). It feels like May went by so fast, and I really can’t believe that it’s already June; a busy month for many teachers out there (myself included). But let’s not talk about that now. Let’s talk about some of my favourite things from the month of May.

Navy quilted jakke m. blomstermønster og fløjlskrave - Monki

Navy quilted jacket: I’d been on the hunt for a great spring jacket, and I definitely found it in this one from Monki. I’ve worn it almost everyday throughout May, and as long as the weather is not getting much warmer, I’ll continue to wear it.

Hvide og sorte zebra print jeans - Asos

Zebra print jeans: I’ve been absolutely loving these zebra print jeans from Asos. They’re the perfect pair of statement trousers, and I’ve worn both at work and on a night out.

MAC Prep + Prime Natural Radiance Illuminating Base (shade: Radiant Yellow): This product has actually been a favourite since December, when I started using a sample size of it. I loved it so much that I had to buy the full size (even though it’s quite expensive), and I wear it most days mixed with my Wet n Wild Coverall primer. It just gives the skin such a pretty, natural glow.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Blue Blood palette: This one probably doesn’t come as a surprise. I’ve been obsessed with blue eyeshadow these past couple of months, and this palette is all you need to create beautiful blue eyeshadow looks.

aladin-netflix-2019-disney

Aladdin (film): As the huge Disney fan that I am, I was very excited to watch the live action version of Aladdin. There might have been some controversy regarding this film, but I loved it! The colours and scenery was stunning, the actors were great, and the music was beautiful.

Neutral break

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I took a little break from the blue and green eye looks, but don’t you worry, they’ll be back:) This glittery neutral eye look is really pretty too though.

Casual with dressy elements

Here’s what I wore Thursday May 9. I’m still absolutely loving these denim overalls. Without the scarf and with some different shoes, this outfit would be super casual, but I love that it has some dressier elements as well.

Cute H&M haul

It’s been a while since my last H&M haul, so I thought it was time to do another one.

Hvid T-shirt m. Friends milkshake print - H&M

I know I already own several Friends T-shirts, but in my opinion you can never have too many T-shirts with prints related to your favourite TV series.

Brun T-shirt m. Anders And print - H&M

As you might have noticed, I’m obsessed with everything Disney, and I thought this Donald Duck T-shirt was so cute. I love that it’s brown too.

Lyserød T-shirt m. Garfield print - H&M

But I love cartoons in general, and H&M has made several pieces with Garfield print (I’ve got more pieces coming up). This T-shirt is the same shape as the Donald Duck one, and I love the baby pink colour.

Cremehvid oversized T-shirtkjole m. Anders And print - H&MLyseblå oversized T-shirtkjole m. Garfield print - H&M

I thought these long oversized T-shirt dresses were very interesting. I got one with Donald Duck and one with Garfield (I’m sticking to the cartoon theme). I think they’ll look really cute over jeans, or maybe paired with cycling shorts in the summer.

Lyseblå jeans m. vidde og Garfield print - H&M

The last Garfield piece I’ve got is this pair of jeans. They fit so well, and I can’t wait to style them.

Beige midi nederdel m. slange print - H&M

I’d had this snake print skirt in my basket for a long time, and I finally decided to get it.

Hvidt bælte m. perle spænde - H&M

Lastly, I purchased this white belt with the prettiest pearl buckle. I’ve already worn it several times (I’m wearing it here).

Minty navy eyes

All dressed up

DSC_7647DSC_7648

Here’s what I wore Saturday May 4. I went to my cousin’s confirmation, so I had a chance to dress up. I hadn’t worn this beautiful dress since my sister’s 18th birthday party last year, so I was really excited about wearing it again. I styled it with matching colours, prints, and pearls, and I love how the outfit turned out.

(Dress + belt – H&M, bag + boots – Zara)

Yet another collective make-up haul

DSC_7629

I’ve collected some new make-up over the past month (maybe a bit longer), and I thought I would share with you, what I’ve got. I’ve purchased six new liquid lipsticks (like I need any more lipsticks); the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour liquid lipstick is in the shade Allegedly, the Dose of Colors Minnie Mouse matte liquid lipstick in the shade Irreplaceable was to cute to pass on, and then I found some Essence Vibrant Shock (06 Black Widow) and Metal Shock (01 Belladonna + 02 Hemlock + 06 Poison Ivy) lip paints on sale that I thought I would give a try. I’ve also bought a new universal transparent lipliner; this one is the Max Factor Color Elixir lipliner in the shade Universal 000. When I wanted to buy a back-up of my Wet n Wild Coverall primer, I couldn’t find it where I usually buy. Instead I found the Wet n Wild Photofocus matte face primer, and I’m going to see if it’s similar to the Coverall primer.

I finally decided to try out Essence Must Haves single eyeshadows (they were also on sale), and I bought a four pan palette to pop them in. The shades I’ve got are (from left to right) 09 Chilli Vanilli, 23 Mermaid At Heart, 22 Holo-Holic, and 14 Purple Clouds.

Lastly, I purchased this beautiful irridecent powder from the MAC Electric Wonder collection. It’s in the shade Serenity Seeker, and it’s a mix of peach and gold. And look at the stunning packaging!

Carrying on the happy colour combo

Happy colour combo

Here’s what I wore Thursday May 2. This turquoise trousers and yellow boots combo makes me very happy. I love turquoise/teal and yellow together. It’s such a happy colour combo.
