A more condensed selection

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. In the upcoming make-up posts, you’ll see a lot of repeat products since I had to pack a few make-up bags, when we moved into the new house. The majority of my make-up collection is still in moving boxes, and even though I miss having my collection available, I’ve actually had fun playing with a more condensed selection of products.

Last from the apartment

Here’s what I wore Thursday November 20. I love wearing blues in the colder months. These are actually the last outfit pictures I took in the apartment. I don’t think I have found the perfect spot for outfit pictures in the house yet, but I’ve managed to take outfit pictures, and that’s what counts.

5 favourites – November

November has come to an end, and what a busy month it was. We moved into our new house last weekend, and I always forget how crazy it is to move. We also went to our second trimester scan, and everything was great with baby, so we’re very grateful for that. December has never come around this quickly before, and I don’t feel quite ready for it, which is very unlike me. As you might know, I’m a very Christmassy person. I love the Christmas season, but due to the move, I haven’t been able to fully decorate yet, but I did get to decorate the Christmas tree with my family today, so I’m very excited about that. Anyways, before I dive head first into my favourite month of the year, let’s talk about some of my favourite things from the month of November.

Caged Crocs (colour: Grapeberry): You know I love Crocs of all kinds, and ever since I first saw the Caged version, I knew I had to have a pair. These are probably the chunkiest Crocs I own, but they’re really comfy and really cool, if you ask me.

Essence Soft Touch eyeshadow (shade: 01 The One): I always have a single matte cream coloured eyeshadow in my collection that I use all the time, and Essence makes great cream coloured single eyeshadows.

NABLA Close-Up blurring powder blushes (shades: Endorphin + Lucky Rose): I usually prefer a satin or glowy blush, but this is one of the best matte blush formulas, I’ve tried. The red shade is my favourite, and I’ve already worn it many times (hence the dirty packaging), but the warm pink shade is beautiful too.

PHLUR Heavy Cream body mist: I really enjoy all the body mists I purchased from PHLUR, but my favourite and most used one so far is the Heavy Cream one. It smells like dessert.

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store – Laurie Gilmore (book): I didn’t have much time to read in November due to our move, but I read the second book in the Dream Harbour series, and I enjoyed getting to know more of the characters better.

Dressing for two…

…again! Yes, you read that right. I’m expecting my second child, and I’m so excited! I’m halfway through this pregnancy, and I can’t really hide the bump anymore, so here’s my first outfit post including a bump picture. I really loved this outfit, and I thought my little bump looked cute in it.

5 favourites – October

Happy Halloween! Can you believe that it’s the last day of October?! A lot of things have happened in the past month, or actually the past couple of months, one thing being that we bought a house, and we’re getting the keys later on today! I can’t believe that the day is finally here. November will be all about getting the house ready and moving in, so my family will definitely be busy the next month or two. But before getting too busy, let’s talk about some of my favourite things from the month of October.

Denim Nike Cortez sneakers: These blue denim Nike Cortez sneakers has without a doubt been my most worn pair of shoes this past month. They just go with pretty much everything.

Catrice Drunk’n Diamonds eyeshadow sticks: I haven’t hauled these eyeshadow sticks yet, but I wore them here, and I loved them! As I wrote in the make-up post, they’re some of the best eyeshadow sticks I’ve ever tried! I wish Catrice would extend the shade range (they do have one more shade that I’ve also purchased), because I would buy them all.

L’Oréal Panorama volume million lashes mascara (shade: Black): It’s been a while since the last time I tried a new black mascara that I like as much as this one. The wand works for me, it looks great on the lashes, and it doesn’t transfer onto my eyelids.

Beverly Hills 90210 – season 1 (TV series): I know, how have I not watched Beverly Hills 90210 until now? I don’t have an answer to that but I finally decided to start watching the series this month, and I loved the first season. I’ve only watched a few episodes of season 2, so that’s why I’m only featuring season 1 here (for now).

The Pumpkin Spice Café – Laurie Gilmore (book): I have yet another book favourite this month, and this was the last book I finished in October. If you like the small town vibes of Gilmore Girls with a few more steamy interactions, this is for you.

5 favourites – September

September has come to an end, and I have to say that I’m quite excited about heading deeper into autumn. October will forever be a special month for me, because it was the month I became a mother. I’m looking forward to having a week off in the middle of October and to be celebrating my daughter’s birthday. But first, let’s talk about some September favourites.

Maybelline Fit Me Nude BB cream SPF 50 (shade: 10): I hadn’t tried anything from the Maybelline Fit Me line in a long time, but I was very intrigued by this BB cream, and I really enjoy it. It has a natural coverage with a slightly dewy finish, and it wears very well in my opinion.

Fenty Beauty Bright Fix Instant Brightening + Blurring powder (shade: Lavender 01): I hadn’t tried a lavender powder in a while, so I really wanted to give this new Fenty Beauty one a go. I like that it’s not visibly lavender on the skin, but it brightens and blurs the skin, as the name suggests, and so far I’ve been loving this powder.

Catrice Pure Volume Magic Brown mascara (shade: 010 Burgundy Brown): I’m pretty sure I haven’t featured this mascara in a favourites post before, so it’s about time. I really like this formula, and the colour is beautiful and goes with so many eye looks. And it’s super affordable too.

The Little Shop of Hidden Treasures (Den lille genbrugs butik) by Holly Hepburn (book): I have two (+ an honorable mention) book favourites this month. This one is such a charming love story about a widowed woman who moves back to her hometown and gets a job at an antique shop. I enjoyed it so much that I’m actually reading another book by Holly Hepburn at the moment.

The Duke and I (Bridgertons #1) by Julia Quinn (book): I love the Bridgerton series on Netflix, so it was about time that I started reading the books. I’ve now read the first one, and it was great. I look forward to hopefully one day read all of them.

My honorable mention in the book department is a Danish book called I en dråbe by Sissel-Jo Gazan, which is in the crime fiction genre. It’s an honorable mention, because it’s in Danish, but man, it was good.

Colourpop Disney Tangled and more haul (April 2025)

I have a Colourpop haul to share with you today. It mainly consists of the Disney Tangled collection, but I also picked up a few other things.

I picked up the entire Disney Tangled collection, because Tangled is one of my favourite Disney films. My daughter has watched it several times lately, which makes me very happy!

The Best Day Ever palette has really pretty packaging, and the colour story is very Tangled, however, this is not the best eyeshadow quality that Colourpop has done. I created this look with it.

The Dewy liquid highlighters in Mother Gothel and I See the Light are my favourite products from this collection. These highlighters are so pretty, and I’ve used both shades several times.

I’m not the biggest lipgloss person, but I do like the Ultra Glossy Lips from Colourpop. The Tangled collection included three shades; Rapunzel, Flynn Ryder, and Pascal.

The product I was the least interested in from this collection was the Glitterally Obsessed glitter body gel in Floating Lights. It’s really pretty, but these glitter gel products tend to crease on my eyelids.

The accessories in the Tangled collection are so cute! I love the Pascal hair clip, and I’ve actually worn it several times. The little foldable hair brush is cute too.

The other items I bought this time around were three of the new shimmery weightless liquid blushes. I chose the shades Sweet Treat, I Love It, and City Walk, and I love these shades and the formula.

Lastly, I got a back-up of the Colourpop Pretty Fresh tinted foundation balm in the shade Fair 1. I’ve mentioned before how much I like this product.

5 favourites – August

Can you believe that it’s the last day of summer calendar wise? I actually sort of can, because we’ve actually had a very warm and sunny summer in Denmark this year, so the summer has felt longer than usual. It also looks like the warm-ish weather isn’t going to be over just yet. However, I’m slowly starting to look forward to autumn and winter, and especially Christmas of course:) But first, let’s say goodbye to August with some favourites.

Dark blue striped denim jacket w. zipper: I don’t feature clothing pieces in these favourites posts very often, because I tend to wear a lot of different clothes, however, I’ve been wearing this denim jacket as a layer in the slightly cooler mornings so many times this past month.

NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow tint pen (shade: Ash Brown): I bought this brow product a few years ago, but never really got into it. I decluttered it because I thought the shade wasn’t right for me, but I decided to try it again in a different shade. Or so I thought. I’d picked up the same shade, but for some reason, I like it a lot better now. Maybe my old one had changed colour over time.

The 7 Virtues Clemetine Dream Eau de Parfum: 2025 has been the year of fragrance for me. I’ve really gotten into trying out different perfumes and body/hair mists, and it’s been a lot of fun. This perfume from The 7 Virtues is a fresh and fruity scent with notes of clementine, magnolia, and vanilla. A perfect summer scent.

Thunderbolts* (film): I love Marvel, but I haven’t been loving a lot of their latest releases. I’d heard good things about Thunderbolts*, so I watched it a couple of nights ago, and I really enjoyed it. Definitely one of the better Marvel films that has come out in years.

Good Girl Complex (Pæn pige problemet) by Elle Kennedy (book): I have another book favourite this month, and a very different one from my book favourite of last month, but a great read nonetheless. I’m pretty sure that there are two more books in this series, and I would love to read those as well.

Crocs and more Crocs

Here’s what I wore Monday April 28. My styling theme for this week was Crocs, so I wore a different pair of Crocs everyday that week. But to be honest, Crocs were my go-to footwear all spring, and I also wore Crocs in my last outfit post and in the outfit post coming right after my week of wearing Crocs.

5 favourites – June

A busy June has come to an end. On Friday my summer holiday begins, and I can’t wait! I don’t remember the last time I needed a long holiday this much. June was a month of ups and downs (probably more downs than ups), so I think some time off will do me good. I have a couple of trips planned for the upcoming month, which I’m very excited about, but I’m also excited about spending time at home with my family. The weather has been lovely lately, and I hope that it’ll continue that way. Besides being excited about my upcoming holiday, I’m also excited about this month’s favourites, so let’s get into those.

Milk Makeup Hydro Grip gel tint (shade: 2): I’d heard good things about this product, so I was very excited to try it out. I love that it grips to the skin just like a gripping primer, so it last very well, and it has a beautiful natural, glowy finish. I wore it to a wedding two weekends ago, and it looked great all day and night.

Glamlite Translucent Bake and Set powder: This is another product that I’d heard good things about, and I agree that it’s such a good powder. It’s been my go-to powder this past month, and it looks great on the undereye area as well as all over the face.

Nabla Freckle Maker: I’ve run out of my beloved KimChi Chic Candy Girl Fake Freckles in Afternoon in The Flower Field, so I wanted to try out a new freckle product and went for the Nabla Freckle Maker. It’s really good and easy to work with.

KAYALI Capri in a Bottle Lemon Sugar I 14 Eau de Parfum: I got the entire set of KAYALI summer scents last summer, and I’ve used them all since, but my favourite is the Lemon Sugar scent. It’s sweet and delicious.

Lilo & Stitch (live action film): I’m a huge Disney fan, and Lilo & Stitch (2002) is very special to me and my sisters, so I invited them to watch the 2025 live action version with me in the beginning of June, and we all loved it. We were worried that it might ruin the original film for us, but it didn’t. It was such an enjoyable film, and the live action Stitch might be even cuter than the cartoon version.
