Here’s what I wore on Christmas Eve. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas or whatever holiday you celebrate this time of year. I sure had a lovely and quiet Christmas with my family which is what I prefer.

Matching black and beige

Here’s what I wore Wednesday November 9. The Danish winter weather has been quite warm this year so far, so I’ve only worn my winter boots a few times. They are not the prettiest shoes in the world and they are pretty hard to style, so I decided to go with matching black and beige.

Monki (+ H&M) haul

I’ve done quite a bit of clothes shopping lately (I’ve already shown you some Christmas jumpers and party clothes). I didn’t go on one big shopping spree, so I’ll be doing several hauls. All of the items above are from Monki, apart from the pink sweater which is from H&M. Monki is one of my absolute favourite brands, and I really like these pieces. Jeans are something I always forget to buy probably because they’re wardrobe stables, but on this shopping trip a bought a pair of blue high waisted skinny jeans. I’ve been looking at overall skirts before, but I’d never found one that fit properly until I found this Monki one. I’m actually wearing it here with a jumper on top, but I do have a couple of outfits waiting to be posted where you can see the overall part. I’m absolutely loving the two sweaters. They’re a quite similar in style; they both have high necks and are a bit oversize. And they are so comfortable, especially the grey one. I’m also loving the velvet bomber cardigan (that’s what I’ve decided to call it). Velvet is everywhere at the moment, and I really don’t mind.

LBD, maroon & gold

Here’s what I wore Saturday November 5. I went to my grandfather’s 80th birthday party that day and I decided to wear a little black dress with maroon and gold accessories. I don’t have any close-ups of my make-up, but I wore Jeffree Star Velour liquid lipstick in Unicorn Blood on my lips.

Deeper red

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. It’s pretty similar to this look, but I’m wearing a deeper red lip here and I think the shade is very christmassy.

Merry and bright

Here’s what I wore two days ago (Friday December 16). This might be my favourite christmassy outfit so far. I think the jumper is so cute and festive, and I think it looks really nice paired with black slacks.

Pink pocket look

I got this Lancôme Pink Pocket Look on my gift advent calendar from my mum two days ago. It contains a Mini Crayon Khôl Noir (eyeliner), a Hypnôse Drama 01 Excessive Black (mascara), a Lip Lover 337 (lipgloss), and a Vernis In Love Rose Bonheur 345B (nail polish). These are my first ever Lancôme products so I’m excited to try them out.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Because I was wearing a black and white outfit I wanted to wear some colour on my lips and decided on a metallic blue. I love having fun with my make-up and play around with colours, and I encourage everyone to do so, at least once in a while:)
