Here’s what I wore Wednesday March 5. I’ve had a hard time figuring out how to style this second hand dress, but I came up with this look, and I do quite like it.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Every now and again I feel like wearing a vampy black and red eye look, and I think this particular outfit gave me a perfect opportunity to do so.

Here’s what I wore Monday March 3. I found the cropped zebra print jacket at a charity second hand store, and I wanted to style it up. Is the double zebra print a bit much? Maybe, but I still kind of like it.
The last spring month has come to an end, and the first month of summer begins tomorrow. I’m still waiting for the warmer summer weather to arrive and stay though. May was a busy month with both ups and downs, but that’s life isn’t it? June is usually quite busy, when you are a teacher due to exams, but I’m also going to wedding and a graduation party towards the end of the month, so I’ll have that to look forward to. But first, let’s talk about some of my favourite things from the month of May.
Crocs (in all shapes and forms): I’ve featured individual pairs of Crocs in these favourites posts before, but I had to feature Crocs in generel this month, because they’re been my most worn footwear. It’s a bit of an obsession at this point, but I just love how fun, customisable, and comfortable Crocs are.
MAC Studio Fix Pro Set + Blur Weightless loose powder (shade: Translucent): I’ve had this powder for about 1,5 years, and I’ve used it here and there, but I got really into using it this past month. It’s a very fine, blurring powder, but I don’t think it makes the skin look too matte, which is nice, when you like me prefer a more natural or slightly glowy finish. The powder is a part of MAC’s permanent line, I just happen to have it in limited edition packaging.
e.l.f. Cosmetics Camo liquid bronzer & contour (shade: Fair/Light): e.l.f. Cosmetics is one of my favourite drugstore brands, and I really like most of their products this liquid bronzer included. It’s pretty pigmented, but it blends out very nicely, and I like this particular shade a lot.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara (shade: Plum Twilight): A couple of months ago, I featured the Burgundy Haze shade of this mascara, which is still a huge favourite of mine, but this past month this dark purple shade has probably been my most worn mascara. It just goes so well with the eyeshadow colours I like to wear the most.
Beautyblender Blendercleanser Liquid Lavender: I had run out of my Real Techniques brush cleanser, so I decided to pick up and try this one from Beautyblender, and I really liked it. I was long overdue with cleaning my make-up brushes, so when I used this cleanser when I finally cleaned them the other day, I was quite impressed by the result.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I thought the Kaleidos Futurism V: Electro Turquoise palette would be a great match to my orange and turquoise top and blazer combo. A paired it with a holographic lipgloss to add even more sparkle to my look.
(Base: primers – KVD Beauty Lock It pore-refining primer + Dior Forever Star Glow Filter (shade: 0N), foundation – Rare Beauty Positive Light tinted moisturizer (shade: 14W), concealers – Rare Beauty Positive Light under eye brightener (shade: Light) + Huda Beauty #FAUXFILTER Luminous Matte liquid concealer (shade: 1.3G Marshmellow), powders – Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Brightening Flawless Finish powder (shade: Fair/Medium) + e.l.f.

Here’s what I wore Saturday March 1. It was the night of the Danish Song Contest (Dansk Melodi Grand Prix), and I went to my parents’ house to watch it with my mum and my sisters, so I had to dress up a little bit. I really wanted to wear my new sparkly jeans and dressed them up with more sparkly and satiny things.
(Blazer – Crás, top – second hand, jeans – YAS, heels – Monki)
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I needed a yummy, autumnal make-up look to go with the yummy, autumnal colour scheme of my outfit, and I love how this make-up look turned out. The Nomad Cosmetics Haunted Europe intense color palette was the perfect eyeshadow palette for this look.

Here’s what I wore Friday February 28. I hadn’t worn my Winnie the Pooh sweater vest in quite a while, so I decided to just wear it over a roll neck top with jeans and boots. The autumnal colours of the sweater vest are so yummy that it works with a simple outfit.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I don’t remember creating an eye look just like this one before, and I had a lot of fun playing with the different tones of green and berry purple from my outfit.

Here’s what I wore Wednesday February 26. I think this colour combo is stunning! I need to wear lime and olive green together with fuchsia and berry purple again soon.
