5 favourites – October

First of all: Happy Halloween to everyone who celebrates that (I personally don’t due to the fact that it’s not that big of a thing in Denmark). It’s time to say goodbye to October and hello to November. I’ve been quite busy the past few weeks, and I’m sure I’ll continue to be busy the next couple of months, but I’ll still try to blog every day, because I need a break from studying every now and again. This month I’ve once again discovered (or rediscovered) some items that I’ve come to love, and here’s 5 of them.

Sorte støvletter m. plateau - B&CO

Black platform boots by B&CO: These boots are one of my all-time favourite pairs of shoes. I wore them A LOT last autumn and winter, and so far I’m doing the same this year. They’re so comfortable and go with so many different looks. Love them!

L’oréal Skin Perfection Awakening Eye Cream: I know I just mentioned the L’oréal Skin Perfection products yesterday, but I really like them, and so far I’m especially impressed by the eye cream. When I’m busy I get really tired, and as I mentioned yesterday I truly think this eye cream makes me look more awake.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter (colour: 040 Red Velvet): I bought this Revlon Lip Butter shortly before I left England, but I didn’t start wearing it until this month, because I find it to be a more autumn/winter appropriate colour. I was pleasantly suprised when I first tried it on, because it’s even more gorgeous than I expected it to be. I haven’t posted any pictures of me wearing it yet (I know I’m really behind with outfit/make-up posts), but I’ll do so in the nearest future.

Make-up sponge: I purchased this make-up sponge last week, and I can’t believe I haven’t used a sponge to apply my foundation (and concealer) before, because it’s amazing. It blends out your foundation so well and makes it look really natural. This is just a cheap make-up sponge, and it’s probably not very good compared to the Beautyblender, but I like it.

Air Guitar – McBusted: YES! McBusted’s debut album is coming out on December 1, but their first single came out earlier this month and I love it! The sound of the song is exactly how I would have imagined an original McBusted sound to be like. I have to say though that I’ve been waiting years now for the next McFly album to be released, but even though it looks like that’s not going to happen for a while, I’m still very exited about the McBusted album.

5 favourites – September

There’s only a few hours left of September which has been a great, but busy month for me. Studying has been taking up most of my time, but I’ve had time to party and hang out with awesome people (friends as well as family) as well. Before we jump into October I want to share a few of my favourite things from September with you.

Creepers by The Fabulous Creepers: As I wrote when I first bought these creepers, I had been on the hunt for the perfect pair, and I’m pretty sure these might be it. I’ve worn them quite a lot this month compared to how many shoes I’ve got, and I’ve already posted one outfit wearing them, and I have a couple of more to show you.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation: My skin has been in a bad condition lately, so I’ve been needing a bit more coverage than usual. I’ve been wearing this foundation almost every day for the past 1,5 month. It’s a light coverage foundation, so you can still see the skin through the product which I love and it still covers up blemishes (to some extent). I use it together with my Collection Lasting Perfection concealer for even more coverage.

1_pocket_garden

Pocket Garden (iPad game): I love playing all sorts of games and pretty much all I’ve been playing the past month (when I’ve had the time) is Pocket Garden on my iPad. I’m obsessed with this game! You basically have you own garden where you grow all sorts of veggies, fruits, flowers, and so on, and then you take orders from restaurants etc. that you have to complete. Love it!

ally mcbeal

Ally McBeal – season 1 + 2: I love watching TV-series and this past month I’ve been watching the first two seasons of Ally McBeal (I’m currently watching the 3rd season). I didn’t think I would enjoy this series as much as I am, but it’s actually very entertaining. I’ve borrowed all three seasons from my mum and I would usually take a picture of the DVD covers but I already gave her back the first two seasons. She doesn’t own the last two seasons, so it might be a while before I get to watch them.

Call Me Irresponsible (album) – Michael Bublé: I don’t remember if I’ve mentioned it before but I’m a huge fan of Michael Bublé’s music. I bought this album about a year ago I think and I’ve loved it all along, but this month in particular I’ve been listening to it a lot. This music just gets me in such a great mood. I love all the songs on the album, but thought you should start by listening to the title song (if you want to of course).

5 favourites – January

So I thought: new year – new feature on the blog. I know that showing your favourite items/things of the month isn’t exactly a new phenomenon, but it is kind of new to me (I made this post about a year ago though). These favourites doesn’t necessarily all have to be fashion or beauty related; it can be pretty much anything that I’ve been loving the given month. I’m going to make these posts on the last day of every month, so without further ado, here are my January favourites:

Grå Air Max Command - Nike

Nike Air Max sneakers: I know, you’ve seen quite a lot of these the past month, but being limited to only two pairs of shoes, the other pair being winter boots, I didn’t really have any other choice but to wear these. I have to say though that they are really comfortable and that I in general really like them, so you are going to see a lot more of them in the future.

e.l.f. Eye Manual eyeshadow palette: I’ve been using this eyeshadow palette pretty much everyday since I got it in December. The colours are absolutely beautiful and they match so well together. Love it.

The Vampire Diaries season 2

The Vampire Diaries – season 2: I got the second season of The Vampire Diaries as the first gift on my Christmas gift calendar last month (I got the first season on my gift calendar in 2012), and I decided to bring it to England so I’d had bit of entertainment, at least for a little while. I finished it last Monday I think, and it was great entertainment. I’ve watched season 1 and 2 on TV before, but it was years ago, so I didn’t mind watching it again. I have only watched the first two seasons though, so I’m looking forward to watch the other seasons.

Chocolate Chip Digestive Biscuits: I probably have the world’s biggest sweet tooth (actually I have a mouth full of sweet teeth), especially when it comes to candy, but this month I’ve been really fond of these chocolate chip Digestive biscuits. I’ve always liked Digestive biscuits, and these chocolate chip ones are the best I’ve tasted so far.

Something Like You – ‘N Sync: I love boybands and I’m not ashamed of it;) I got two ‘N Sync CD’s for Christmas (‘N Sync is my favourite boyband by the way), and I’ve been listening to this cheasy love pop ballad countless times this past month. What I love about ‘N Sync, besides their catchy pop songs (which is pretty much all about love) and lovely boyband dance moves, is their beautiful harmonies. When they all sing together it sounds quite amazing, I think.
