5 favourites – August

August has come to and end, and tomorrow it’ll officially be autumn, which means that we’ll be one month closer to December. Yay! The weather has turned cooler, and I’m starting to feel the autumn vibes. So let’s say goodbye to the summer with some favourites from August.

Sølv øreringe fra loppemarked

Second hand silver earrings: I found these pretty, silver earrings at a flea market this summer, and I’ve worn them so much throughout August. I love the simple, sleek design, and they’re a great addition to my jewellery collection.

Maybelline Instant Anti Age Eraser concealer

Maybelline Instant Anti Age Eraser concealer: I’d heard so many good things about this concealer, so I finally decided to try it out, and I love it. I still love the Maybelline Fit Me concealer as well, but lately I’ve been grapping this one over the Fit Me.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Thirsty eye shadow palette: This is pretty much the perfect summer palette; it contains all the neutrals you’ll need + some beautiful pops of colour. I’m looking forward to create even more looks with this palette.

Physicians Formula Butter bronzer

Physicians Formula Butter bronzer: This is another product, I’ve heard such good things about, and I rarely buy new bronzers, because I love my Benefit Hoola bronzer so much, but this one is so good. I have the light version, and the colour is perfect for my skintone. It blends like a dream too.

goodwillhunting

Good Will Hunting (film): In my summer holiday, I bought a lot of DVD’s, one of them being Good Will Hunting. I’ve been wanting to watch this film for a while, and I loved it. I loved the story, and Matt Damon and Robin Williams played their characters so well.

Collective second hand haul: accessories

Here’s the second part of my collective second hand haul: the accessories. You can check out the clothes part here.

Brun skuldertaske - second handCremefarvet håndtaske m. pastelstriber - second handCremefarvet og brun koprint håndtaske - second hand

Before my love for shoes really kicked in, I loved bags, and I rediscovered my love for bags recently. Second hand stores are great places to shop for bags, because you can usually find som fun and different ones. The first bag I found was the little brown shoulder bag. I love the shape, and you can never have to many little shoulder bags. On the other hand, I’ve been wanting to get into hand bags again, and how cute is the pastel striped one! It’s the perfect little summer bag. Lastly, I found the coolest cow print bag. I can’t wait to style this one with the right outfit.

Stråhat m. hvidt bånd - second hand

I also found this simple wide brim straw hat, which is perfect for this time of year, and I didn’t have a classic straw hat in my hat collection.

Lilla bredt bælte - second hand

I’m always looking for belts, when I’m second hand shopping, but I haven’t had any luck finding any in years. Maybe my luck has changed, because I recently found this nice purple one.

Broche m. rød sten og kæder

I’ve also started looking for brooches/pins, and how pretty is this one. I think adding a brooch to an outfit can be such a nice little detail.

5 favourites – March

The first month of spring (though the weather wasn’t spring-like at all) has come to an end. At the moment, I’m enjoying my easter holiday, but most of March was all about work for me. I’m super excited about April, because I’m moving into a new apartment in two weeks! I can’t wait to get more space and to decorate my new home. But before welcoming April, let’s say goodbye to March with some favourites.

Støvet khakigrønne fløjlsbukser m. vide - second hand

Flared corduroy trousers vol. 2: My corduroy obsession is still going strong. These trousers that I found in the men’s section at a second hand store are just perfect, and I’ve worn them so much.

Blommefarvet pelset beret

Faux fur beret: My beret collection is also growing, and the newest addition has been my go-to hat this past month. I love the plum colour and the fact that it’s fluffy. It’s such a nice accessory.

Troll Beads armbånd

Troll Beads bangle: When I got my master’s degree in late January, my parents gave me this beautiful Troll Beads bangle + the two black glass beads. My sister and her boyfriend gave me the silver bead (+ another glass bead). I love the ability to costumise your jewellery, and I’m really looking forward to extending my Troll Beads collection.

moana-intro

Moana (film): I finally got to watch Moana, and I loved it. I find it to be a very aesthetically pleasing film, and the songs are great!

CHCHdotcom_Sliders_WhiteCollar

White Collar (Tv series): I can’t believe it took me so long to finally start watching this TV series. I was hooked from pilot episode; I love the characters and especially the relationship between Neal and Peter, and I can’t wait to watch the rest of the series.

5 favourites – February

Tomorrow, we enter the first month of spring, though the Danish weather is bloody freezing. I’m craving spring so bad! Even though February is the shortest month of the year, mine still felt quite long. My February consisted of a lot work, but also a holiday which was very much needed. My 5 favourites from February are all fashion related, and I’m sure they’ll continue to be favourites next month as well.

Beige shearling fløjlsjakke - H&M

Oversized shearling corduroy coat: My obsession with corduroy continues, and this coat is incredible. It’s been my most worn coat this past month, and I love everything about it!

Mørkeblå kick flare jeans - H&M

Dark blue kick flare jeans: You’ve probably noticed how much I love flared trousers, and these dark blue kick flare jeans are so perfect! They’re high-waisted and cropped, and I love the way they fit.

Sorte støvler m. snørre og spænder - Asos

Black suede lace up boots: I’m so glad, I bought these boots. Because of the cold Danish weather, boots are very much needed, and these go with so many different outfits.

DSC_4643

Zebra print belt: I’ve always liked zebra print, and this belt is the perfect way of adding a bit of zebra print to your outfit. Because of the black and white colours, it goes with pretty much everything, and it’s just a lot of fun.

DSC_4543

Dinosaur earrings: I love dinosaurs! I’ve most likely mentioned that before. I’ve been wanting a pair of dinosaur earrings in absolute ages, and my sister got me these for Christmas. They’re probably Brachiosauruses (which is one of my favourite dinosaurs), and they’re just adorable.

5 favourites – January

How are we already one month into 2018? I’ve been very busy starting my new job this month, and I just got the grade for my master’s thesis today, so now I have a master’s degree. I still can’t believe it. I hope you had a good start to the new year. I had a lot of favourites this month, but I’ve managed to narrow it down to five.

Vinrøde fløjlsbukser m. vide - H&M

Flared corduroy trousers: I’ve been obsessed with these amazing trousers this past month. The styling options are endless, and they’re really warm and comfortable too.

Sort bæltetaske

Black leather belt bag: I’d been wanting a simple belt bag like this one for a while, and I love it. It’s my new everyday bag. I wear it crossbody, and it’s not heavy, but it still fits a lot of stuff.

DSC_4537

Silver plait ring by Jane Kønig: I’ve worn this ring almost everyday since I got it for Christmas. I love the simple, plaited design.

MAC Ricepaper 3

MAC eye shadow in Ricepaper: I’ve mostly worn very simple, neutral eye make-up this past month, and this eye shadow is what I’ve worn all over my eyelids. It’s very close to my skin colour, and it has a nice sheen to it (which is difficult to see in the picture).

greatest_showman_cover

The Greatest Showman (film): A couple of weeks ago I went to the cinema with my sisters to watch The Greatest Showman, and I loved it. The cast is great, and the music is incredible. Watch it if you haven’t already.

Christmas presents and more

Sort bæltetaskeDSC_4537DSC_4543MAC Ricepaper 3DSC_4551DSC_4547

Here’s some of my Christmas presents and a couple of advent calendar presents as well. I got the black leather belt bag on my gift advent calendar from my mum, and I’ve been wanting one for a while. I wear it crossbody, and it’s my new everyday bag. The ring is by the Danish jewellery designer Jane Kønig. It was on my wishlist for Christmas, and I love it. The dinosaur earrings are from a website called Lisa Angel, and they are adorable. The eye shadow is MAC Ricepaper, which was another advent calendar gift. It has already become a part of my everyday eye make-up routine. The blusher is MAC Peaches, which is the perfect peachy blusher. Lastly, I got another Urban Decay Heavy Metal glitter eyeliner. It’s in the shade Distortion, and it’s so pretty.

Winter accessories

Røde støvler m. chunky hæl - RaidSorte støvler m. blomster og kitten heel - H&MDSC_4000DSC_4301DSC_4307

I have a few new accessories I want to show you. It’s the season for wearing boots, so I bought two pairs of boots that fit in with this season’s trends; red boots and sock boots. The red boots are from a brand called Raid and I bought them on Asos. They have a bit of a ’60s vibe to them which I love. They are also perfect for the festive season. The floral sock boots are from H&M. They have a kitten heel which is a another trend at the moment, and you can style them in so many different ways. I also bought some more glitter socks, and these colours are very appropriate for this time of year. Lastly, I bought some jewellery on Asos. The bracelets are from Asos’ own brand and they are made of gold plated sterling silver. I’ve been wanting some dainty gold bracelets for a long time now, and these are really simple and pretty. I also bought some Kingsley Ryan sterling silver lightening blot earrings, and they are so cute.

Tassels

DSC_3806DSC_3812DSC_3809

Tassel earrings have been everywhere for a while now, and luckily I have a very creative sister, who made these pretty tassel earrings for me. She used old buttons for the actual earring part which make them really unique, and I can’t wait to wear these with tons of different outfits.

5 favourites – June

June has definitely been the toughest month for me this year so far. I’ve had a lot of exams and some very difficult ones, but they all went well, and now I’m going to enjoy my summer holidays before I start writing my thesis in August. Therefore, my blogging will be inconsistent the next month, but I’ll try to post as often as possible. I wish you all an amazing summer, and here’s some favourites from the month of June.

lysebla-ankel-flare-jeans-hm

Kick flare jeans: When I bought these jeans, I didn’t expect to love them as much as I do. I think they make an outfit look way more interesting, and they remind me a bit of the 70’s, which is awesome. I love that they can be styled in so many different ways. I’m wearing them here and here.

DSC_1827

Silver choker with pendants: This dainty silver choker has been one of my most worn necklaces this past month. I’ve been layering it with my Stegosaurus necklace, and I think they look great together.

Pukka Peppermint and Licorice 1

Pukka peppermint & licorice tea: I love tea, and liquorice is one of my favourites. This is quite an expensive tea brand (my mum gave it to me), but it really is good, and I love the combination of peppermint and liquorice.

how-i-met-your-mother-banner

How I Met Your Mother (TV series): I finally decided to watch HIMYM in the beginning of the month, and I got hooked instantly. I watched all 9 seasons (it was pretty much all I did in the evenings after I was done studying for the day), and I absolutely loved it. I will definitely rewatch this series some time.

Nem Eu – Salvador Sobral: My obsession with Salvador Sobral’s music continued throughout the month of June, and this song is just as beautiful as his Eurovision song. I still don’t understand a single word, but it still manages to move me, and I think it’s incredible when music can do that.

5 favourites – March

I can’t believe that it’s already the last day of March. I had a very busy, but eventful month. I was especially busy with uni stuff, but I still spent a lot of time with both family and friends, and all in all March was a great month. The weather has slowly started to get a bit warmer which I really appreciate. I had a lot of favourites this month, so it was a bit difficult to pick just 5, but here they are.

sort-velour-bomber-jakke-cardigan-monki

Black velvet bomber cardigan: You have seen this velvet number quite a bit throughout the past couple of months, and you will definitely see more of it. I think I’ve worn it at least once a week during the past month, and it’s just one of my favourite clothing pieces at the moment. It’s so comfortable, and I’m just obsessed with velvet.

Real Techniques Expert Face Brush

Real Techniques Expert Face brush: I’m a huge fan of Real Techniques make-up brushes and this one was added to my collection in December. I didn’t use it though until this month when I got into contouring again, because this brush is great for blending out your contour.

Spinning hoops

Silver hoop earrings: I’ve had these earrings since I was 18 and I’ve always used them quite a bit, but this month they have been pretty much the only earrings I’ve worn. They go with everything, and they’re good medium sized hoops.

LLL d 29 _5194.NEF

La La Land (film): This year so far, I’ve watched so many amazing films, and in this month’s favourites I had to feature two of them. I had very high expectations to La La Land and I was not disappointed. I teared up so many times during this film, especially when all the amazing music was playing (the first thing I did when I got home from the movie theatre was to listen to the soundtrack on repeat). Through and through this film was just beautiful.

beautyandthebeast

Beauty and the Beast (film): Another film I was extremely excited about was Beauty and the Beast. As you probably already know, I’m a huge Disney fan, and Belle has always been my favourite Disney princess, and Emma Watson did an amazing job portraying her. I teared up whenever a song was playing, and just as La La Land, it was a beautiful film.
