Here’s what I wore Monday July 1. This is one of those dresses that I’ve worn every summer for years, and that I’ll probably continue to wear every summer for years to come.

Monolith spring sale haul (June 2024)
Monolith had a spring sale in June, and these are the products I picked up.
I have falling in love with the Fantasy Cosmetica eyeshadows. I kind of want them all, and I’m getting there. I picked up three palettes in this sale; the Sorcerer, the Bard, and the Fighter. They’re all stunning!
I’ve also been loving the Unearthly Cosmetics eyeshadows, and I love the themes and colour stories of their palettes. This is the Lore palette.
I love a spooky or Christmas themed palette, and the Spooked palette and the Silent Night palette from Gourmande Girls are so fun.
And speaking of Christmas themed, the Simply Posh Cosmetics Cozy Up cheek palette is so cute and Christmassy, and I really want the Cozy Cabin eyeshadow palette that launched in this collection as well.
I really enjoyed the Glamlite Betty Boop eyeshadow palette, so I decided to pick up the cute blush duo as well.
This is the only product I’ve bought from the Blend Bunny Cosmetics x Ellis Atlantis collection. It’s the Celestial Cheek Glaze, and I thought it would be fun to play around with as a highlighter or a blush topper.
Earth and air
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wearing the Earth palette and the other one of the Aang liquid liners from the Lethal Cosmetics x Avatar: The Last Airbender collection on my eyes, and I think the look turned out really pretty.

Carrie Bradshaw inspired summer
Here’s what I wore Monday June 24. I had planned out looks inspired by Carrie Bradshaw for the entire week, but my daughter became ill, so I ended up only wearing three of the Carrie inspired outfits. But to be honest, I was inspired by Carrie Bradshaw most of the summer.
(T-shirt – Monki, skirt – Adidas Originals, sneakers – Nike)
Collective haul – clothes, shoes, accessories (June 2024)
My collective haul for June is quite large, so I decided to divide it into two parts. This first part includes clothes, shoes, and accessories.
I wore this colourful matching set in my last outfit post, and I think it’s so fun. The pieces are from a brand called Nümph, and I got them on sale.
The next five pieces are from Monki, and they were all on sale. I love a fitted roll neck top, and I think the lilac, red, and black is a cool colour combo.
As you might have noticed, pink and red is one of my favourite colour combos, and this stripy shirt is so cute.
I have this style of oversized blazer in so many colours and prints, and now I also have it in orange.
I also have this style of trouser in so many different colours and prints, and now I also have a pair in pink.
I wasn’t sure about these long, wide leg shorts when I ordered them, but I loved them, when I tried them on.
In my last Zalando haul, I featured the Jeffrey Campbell Akita lace up boots in black, but when Zalando had the white version on sale as well, I had to pick them up.
And speaking of Jeffrey Campbell, I also got these fun western style boots.
I featured this pair of Nike Cortez sneakers in my 5 September favourites post, and I’m still in love with them. It’s one of my favourite colourways that I own.
I love Maanesten jewellery, and this Lulu ring, which I got on sale, is so pretty.
I got three straw hats to show you. Maybe a bit excessive, I know, but I love a straw hat in the summer. The first one is from Topshop, and the other two are from a Danish brand/website called Black Colour. The rest of the items in this haul are also from Black Colour.
These are the hair accessories I got from the Black Colour website. I just love hair accessories.
These are the reason behind my Black Colour order. I’ve been wanting to add big flower brooches/pins to my wardrobe for so long, and I was so excited when I found these. The red and pink ones have been my favourites, but I like the champagne one with the pearls as well.
Water and air
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I used the Water palette and one of the Aang liquid liners from the Lethal Cosmetics x Avatar: The Last Airbender collection and both products were so good! I absolutely love this blue eye look.
