5 favourites – July

July has come to an end which means that my summer holiday is now over. I spent the last three weeks relaxing with my family, which is why I haven’t blogged much this past month, but now I’m back home, I start working again tomorrow, and I’ll also be blogging regularly again. I love summer holidays, but I’m also the type of person who’s excited to get back to work. But before that happens, here’s my July favourites.

Sølvring af manchetknap

Cufflink ring: I went to several flea markets and second hand stores this summer and hauls will be coming up. One of my favourite flea market finds is this silver ring made of a cufflink. The woman who sold it to me made it herself, and there’s only two of them in world, since cufflinks come in sets of two:)

Hjemmelavede perlesmykker

Homemade jewellery: My sisters and I went crazy with jewellery making this summer, and these are the bracelets and ankle bracelets I made. I’ve worn different combinations of these almost everyday these past three weeks, and I’ll probably continue to do so for the rest of the summer.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Jawbreaker palette: I don’t think I’ve ever been as excited about an eyeshadow palette than I was for this one. 2019 has been the year of colourful eyeshadows for me, and this palette is absolutely stunning. It was one of the palettes I brought with me on summer holiday, and even though I’ve used it a lot, I still haven’t tried out half of the shades. I can’t wait to play even more with this palette.

Ofra Cosmetics x Nikkietutorials Glazed Donut highlighter: This highlighter is just gorgeous! The colour is perfect and it looks stunning on the skin. Definitely my most used highlighter in July.

Vintage sko

Vintage Shoes – Caroline Cox: I started reading this book years ago, and now I finally had time to finish it. I’ve been obsessed with shoes since my early teenage years, and this book tells you all you need to know about shoes from the 20. century. It was such an inspiring read.

Mini haul

I’ve purchased a few random items recently, and I thought I would put them together in a mini haul.

Lysegrå Cortez med teal og orange detaljer - Nike

I’ve added a third pair of Nike Cortez sneakers to my shoe collection. I instantly fell in love with this colour combo, and I can’t wait to style them in a bunch of different ways.

Mørkebrune sandaler - VRS

I’ve also purchased another pair of comfy sandals in a dark brown colour.

Bolo tie 3

Ever since I watched Pretty in Pink for the first time, I’ve wanted a bolo tie. Now I finally got one, and I want to wear it Duckie Dale style.

Raspberry pink

Garfield

DSC_7953DSC_7951

Here’s what I wore Thursday June 13. I had to wear the pink Garfield T-shirt with the Garfield jeans that I featured in this haul. Both the T-shirt and the jeans are quite loose fitted and boyish, so I decided to wear some cute white heels and belt with a pearl buckle to make the outfit slightly more feminine.

(Jeans + T-shirt + belt – H&M, heels – Topshop)

PJ vibes

Here’s what I wore Wednesday June 12. Purple and green is still one of my favourite colour combos, and I love that these velvet trousers give any outfit PJ vibes.

(Trousers + cami top – H&M, T-shirt – Monki, sneakers – Nike)

Jeffree Star Jawbreaker collection (summer 2019)

I don’t think I’ve ever been as excited for a Jeffree Star collection than I was for this year’s summer collection.

My jaw literally dropped when I first saw the Jawbreaker palette. Have you ever seen anything this beautiful! I’ve only played with this palette once so far, but I’m already obsessed.

I’ve also purchased the Mini Breaker palette. I love the concept of mini palettes, and the colours in this one are stunning.

I’ve never tried the Supreme Frost highlighters before, but when I saw the shade Diamond Wet swatched, I knew I had to give it a try.

Last, but most certainly not least, I purchased four of the limited edition Velour liquid lipsticks. The shades are (from top to bottom) Fully Nude, Strawberry Crush, Yes Ma’am, and Purple Urkle. The colours are brighter in real life and oh so pretty.

Summery and winged out

Here’s the make-up I wore Sunday June 9. I wanted to do something different with my eye make-up and did this summery winged out look. I also wore a very nude lip, which I rarely do, but I really like the way it looks with the bright eye make-up.
