Big Monki haul

I’m not sure that I’ve ever done a Monki haul (I mean a haul only consisting of Monki pieces), but Monki has had a sale/outlet going on lately, so I’ve purchased a lot of great items.

Rød quilted jakke m. blomstermønster og fløjlskrave - Monki

Earlier this year, I bought this quilted jacket in navy, and I’ve worn that one so much, so when I found the red version in the outlet section on Monki’s website, I had to have it. The only difference between the two jackets (besides the colour) is that the red version has a heart on the zipper. The navy version has a circle.

Gul, blå, rød og hvid stribet sweater - Monki

I love knitwear and I love stripes and bright colours, so this jumper found it’s way in to my shopping basket. I’m so ready for sweater weather.

Grøn, blå og lyserød hawaii skjorte - Monki

In contrast to the knitted jumper, I also bought this oversized hawaii shirt, which is definitely more summery, but I absolutely loved the pattern and colours of this.

Regnbuestribet T-shirt - Monki

More stripes and more bright colours. I think this will be a great layering piece.

Olivengrøn T-shirt - Monki

Even though I love patterns, it’s nice to have some solid coloured tops as well, and I just love this olive green shade.

Lyserød og blå ternet kjole m. knapper - Monki

I actually don’t buy dresses that often, but I thought this button down dress was really cute. I really like pink and blue together.

Navy midi fløjlsnederdel m. knapper - Monki

It’s no secret that I love corduroy, and I thought this navy corduroy midi skirt would be a great autumn/winter piece.

Rustbrune denim overalls - Monki

About a year ago, I bought my first pair of overalls as an adult, and my love for them has only grown bigger since then. These rusty orange ones are of the same style as my beloved blue denim ones, and I thought this colour would be perfect for autumn.

Rustfarvet fløjlsblazer m. hvidt hjertemønster - MonkiRustfarvede vide fløjlsbukser m. hvidt hjertemønster - Monki

And speaking of rusty orange and autumn vibes, this is the most incredible two piece corduroy set I’ve ever seen! When I first saw this set on the website, my jaw dropped. It was not on sale, but I had to have it. It doesn’t get more ’70s fabulous than this.

Very random haul

I have a small, very random haul to share with you. It consists of a couple of things that I’ve bought online and a few birthday presents.

Sort T-shirt m. Lady og Vagabonden print - New Look

I can’t resist clothing with Disney print. I’ve always loved Lady and the Tramp, so I had to have this T-shirt from New Look.

Mørkeblå Cortez m. bærfarvede detaljer - Nike

Something else I can’t resist is a new pair of Nike Cortez sneakers. This is my fourth pair and probably not my last pair.

Sorte pumps m. farvet ternet mønster - second hand

One of my sisters gave me these cute second hand shoes for my birthday. I love the colourful check print and the sheer fabric.

Troldekugler (fødselsdag 2019)

I love my Trollbeads bangle and ring, so I love getting new beads. My parents gave me these three for my birthday, and they’re so pretty.

Feelunique haul

I’ve made one or two orders from Feelunique before, but I needed a back-up of my Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray, so I thought I would pick up a few other things as well.

Besides the UD setting spray, I also purchased another setting spray; the Maybelline Lasting Fix setting spray. I haven’t tried it before, and I’m planning on doing a first impressions post on it. From L’Oréal I bought two back-ups of the Infaillible More Than Concealer concealer. It’s definitely become one of my favourite concealers. I also decided to give the Infaillible Shaping Stick foundation a try. I’ll definitely do a first impressions post on that. Lastly, I purchased my first ever product from Lime Crime. I fell in love with the pumpkin orange colour of this lipstick, and it’s called October which is a very fitting name.

A bit of everything; H&M haul

It’s time for another H&M haul, and it’s a bit of a mix of everything.

Rød og pink gingham bikiniTeal og pink badedragt

Swinsuit season might be over (at least in Denmark), but why not stock up on swimsuits to wear next summer now that they’re on sale. I’ve been wanting a bikini with highwaist bottoms for years, and I couldn’t resist this cute red, pink, and white checked one. I’ve had the teal and pink swimsuit in my saved section for a long time, and now I finally decided to get it. It’s so ’80s and I love it!

Sort satin slip kjole - H&M

I don’t wear a lot of black, but I thought it would be nice to own a little black slip dress.

Rød oversized T-shirt m. Pringles print - H&M

As you might have noticed, I’m a sucker for graphic T-shirts, and how cute is this Pringles one! I love Pringles and I love the colour red, so this was a no brainer purchase for me.

Neongul, hvid og pink ombré sweatshirt m. høj hals - H&M

I haven’t played around with the neon trend that much, but I thought this sweatshirt was really fun. I really like the ombré effect and the high neck.

Hvid og sort zebramønstret mesh trøje - H&M

I love everything about this top; it’s has a high neck line, it’s zebra print, and it’s mesh. It’s going to be a great layering piece.

Cremefarvede cropped fløjlsbukser m. vide - H&M

Last thing in this H&M haul are these cream coloured cropped wide leg corduroy trousers. I love everything corduroy, and I believe that I can wear these during all four seasons.

Annual summer holiday second hand haul

My family and I went on our annual day-long second hand shopping trip during our summer holiday, and here’s what I bought.

Sort strik T-shirt m. krave og knapper - second handSort og grå ternet midi nederdel m. knapper - second handSort midi nederdel 2 - second hand

Clothes wise I bought one top and two midi skirts. All three pieces are very autumnal/wintry, so I probably won’t be wearing them for a little while.

Sort bælte med rosespænde - second hand

This belt came with the black skirt, and I love the rose detail on the buckle.

Røde, orange, lyserøde og lyseblå sandaler m. snøre - second handBrune leopardmønstrede sandaler - second handSort lace-up støvler - second handLysebrune ruskindsstøvler m. frynser - second hand

When it comes to shoes, I really hit the jackpot on this trip. All four pairs were unused, and they were all so affordable. So far I’ve only worn the colourful heels, and they were so cute. I’m really excited about wearing the other three pairs as well.

Flea market haul

Over the summer holidays, I went to several flea markets, and here’s a few things that I found.

Loppemarked fund 2019

Big hair clips was all the rage last summer, but I’m still not over them, so I added this fun tortoise shell like one to my rather large collection of hair clips. I’ve already shown you the cuff link ring, but I also found a cactus pendant and the cutest Revlon nail varnish pin.

Orange 70'er-kjole m. brun og lilla mønster - second hand

My mum found this amazing dress from the ’70s. She bought it from an older lady who told her that she had found the fabric and then had someone make a dress out of it for her. It’s so nice when clothes have a story, and I love that this dress is one of a kind.

Affordable beauty haul: Essence, L.A. Girl & Revolution

Over the past couple of months, I’ve collected some affordable make-up products from Essence, L.A. Girl, and Revolution.

Essence often come out with limited edition collections, and I thought this Berry on collection looked really pretty. I purchased the two matte liquid lipsticks; they’re in the shades 01 Berry Nice and 02 Berry Beautiful. I also purchased the highlighter which is called 01 Berry on My Mind!, and it’s a pretty pink shade.

DSC_8046

I’ve also bought a bunch of products from L.A. Girl and a single product from Revolution. From L.A. Girl I’ve purchased three coloured mascaras; turquoise, bright blue, and purple. The only products from this haul that I’ve tried so far are the Shockwave Neon liners; I’ve worn the yellow one (Screamin’) and the green one (Gotcha), but there’s also a bright teal one (Fresh) and a purple one (Vivid). So far I’m quite impressed by these liners. The last product I’ve got from L.A. Girl is the PRO.Color Foundation Mixing Pigment in White; I want to try to lighten certain foundations. The very last product in this haul is the Revolution Vivid Baked highlighter in Matte Lights. As the name suggests it’s a matte highlighter, which is something I haven’t really tried before, so I’m excited to see what it looks like on the skin.

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.

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.

DSC_8065DSC_8068

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.

DSC_8074DSC_8076

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.

DSC_8089

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.
