A lot going on

Here’s what I wore Monday June 11. This outfit has a lot going on, but I like it. I especially like the pairing of the check ruffled hem trousers and the love heart fishnet socks.

Matching neutrals

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As much as I love colourful make-up, this outfit called for matching neutral make-up, and I love this kind of make-up look too.

Summer neutrals

Here’s what I wore Friday June 8. It was another hot day and a perfect occasion to wear this cute, white skirt. I paired it with neutral colours, which is unlike me, but I really like this outfit.

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.

Kawaii party

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I had a really hard time capturing the glitter on my eyelids in the pictures, but at least you can see how cute the MAC Nicopanda lipstick in the shade Kawaii Party is.

(Base: primers – Benefit the POREfessional face primer + L’Oréal Lumi Magique Pure Light primer, foundation – Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless foundation (shade: 110 Porcelain), concealers – MAC Pro Longwear concealer (shade: NC20) + Maybelline Fit Me concealer (shade: 05), powders – NYX Highlight & Contour Pro Palette (shades: Soft Light + Cream) + Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless pressed powder (shade: 90 Translucent). Face make-up: contour/bronzer – Benefit Hoola bronzer, blusher – NYX Ombre Blush in Mauve Me, highlighter – Sleek Highlighting palette in Solstice (shade: Hemisphere).

Too hot for a jacket

Here’s what I wore Thursday June 7. It was actually too hot to wear a jacket that day, but this Pluto denim jacket is just so cute and it looked great with this outfit.

MAC limited edition collective haul

I’ve been collecting some limited edition MAC lipsticks + a face powder over the past couple of months, and I thought I would make one collective haul.

DSC_5223DSC_5220

The first lipsticks I bought was these adorable Nicopanda ones. The shades I’ve got are Kawaii Party and Nico Kiss and they’re both matte lipsticks. Kawaii Party is a beautiful lavender shade, and you know how I feel about purple lipsticks. Nico Kiss is a black navy. I haven’t worn it yet, but I think it’ll be great for a night out.

My most recent MAC purchases are two products from this year’s summer collection, Mirage Noir, and a lipstick from the Lunar New Year collection, which launched earlier this year.

The MAC website sometimes have a 40 % off sale on their ‘goodbyes’, and this lipstick was a part of that sale. I thought about getting this matte dusty rose colour back when the collection first launched, so I’m excited about adding it to my collection.

It probably comes as no surprise that I chose the purple lipstick in this year’s summer collection. It’s called Beach Nut and it’s a matte deep purple. I also couldn’t resist the beautiful Pearlmatte Face Powder in the shade Mother O’ Pearl. So stunning!

Zalando haul

I find Zalando a very overwhelming online shop, because they have so much stuff. However, because they have so many great brands, I decided to place an order a little while ago.

Lyserød oversized denimjakke - Missguided

The first thing I got is this dusty pink oversized denim jacket from Missguided. Denim jackets are my go-to spring/summer outerwear, and I love the fit and colour of this one.

Røde culottes - New Look

The Danish summer weather is very unpredictable, so you need different clothing options. We often have weather that is too cold for shorts or skirts, but to warm for long trousers, so cropped trousers of different sorts are often needed. These red culottes from New Look are perfect for that kind of weather.

Sort og hvid ternede stumpbukser - Topshop

I also got another pair of cropped trousers. These black and white check ones are from Topshop and they have really cute ruffle hems.

Hvide chunky sneakers m. lyserøde, grå og karrygule detaljer - Topshop

Chunky sneakers have been trendy for a while now, and I thought these ones from Topshop looked awesome. I love the colours and I think they’ll be a great addition to so many different outfits.

Rød bucket bag - Topshop

Lastly, I bought this bucket bag from Topshop. I’ve been wanting this bag for a long time, and it’s the reason why I decided to order some stuff from Zalando. You can wear it as either a hand bag and as a shoulder bag (it comes with a strap), and it fits a lot of stuff.
