Friday Haul


Happy Friday everyone! today i decided to go shopping after uni and ended up in the new Primark store in Gelsenkirchen. it is one of the very little german Primark shops but i think next year they are going to open one in my hometown. i actually didn't buy too much because i went to Zara in Essen before and bought a lovely black skirt and also stopped at H&M where i bought a nice bowler hat and a blouse (the same one that i have in pink and black) on sale. 



at Primark i went for the tights which were 3€ and 2€ (very good pricetag!) and the very cute plaid dress. it also has a Peter Pan collar- adorable! i will wear it with my Fearne Cotton for Very blouse. 


after that shopping trip i met with my mom after her work and we went trought Dortmund city centre a little where i bought some hair dye (going to dye it tomorrow) and some Nails.Inc nail polish- i will show you some swatches as soon as i have grown my fingernails back.


i'm very sorry for the terrible pictures - i haven't found my cameras charger and had to take the pictures with my bad camera :( - hopefully i will find the charger otherwise i might have to buy a new one ... 

have you bought anything cool recently too?


i actually bought this NW3 dress on eBay for only 30£ new with tags last week and i plan to wear it on Christmas. i think i should also get some emerald green eyeshadow and some grey pearls (i saw some at my moms museum shop).
wishing you all a lovely Friday

A Little Bit Of Monday Fun

As today was no uni for me (woot woot!) i decided to get some stationary and returned home with lots of stuff from the drugstore... well... and one notebook!


there was a huge sale on essence things and also on that Schwarzkopf got2b stuff- i couldn't resist! i got two new nail polish pens (i love them!!!) in pink and dark red, a strawberry lipgloss, a candy queen lip pen and some nail art gem stones. and also those cool nail polish sticker that i've been wanting to try for while now. and everything for just 0,95cents! 



i painted my nails in a pinkish mood yesterday and that's how it turned out... i really love pink and lilac at the moment.
more on nails in another post though ;-)
what have you been upto today?

Selfmade Chocolate & Cupcakes



I feel in the mood to make my own chocolate! so i ordered this book "how to make your own chocolate" (it's german actually and you can get it here) the thing that made me get it was actually the chocolate pan. i was looking for those everywhere and could not find them! and right after i clicked "add to cart" i found another book that caught my attention :



after reading the good reviews (get it here) i added that to my cart too and "went" straight to check out since i have to save my money for upcoming Christmas and New Year (i've got big plans!).
i'm sorry that these books are in german because i would prefer to show you things a little more "international". hope you don't mind too much. as soon as i received them i will try to make my own chocolate and share my experience with you. there has been a "dream" chocolate on my mind for a while- i'm thinking little cute speculaas cookies and strawberry chocolate drops with a nice milk chocolate.
writing this makes me want to go to the chocolate museum in cologne! it's not too far so might go there soon. make sure to stay tuned for more ♥

Nailing It Down



What a cliche title! anyway... with the 3 cute nail polishes i won (i wrote about it here) i now own 9 cute Eyeko polishes. actually i have the "Rain" one twice (gonna be a give away as soon as i reached enough followers)

my absolute favorite of them all is actually the "Lilac" polish! it looks so girly and pastel but to be honest all their polishes are great and nice quality. they are a little more liquid than the ones i am used to but i must say i really like it because it makes them very easy to apply on my nails. to get the full colour i usually have to put more than one coat on but they dry quite fast so it's not really bothering me.

oh and before i forget! back then when there was this awesome Models Own 50% off event i got myself 5 nail polishes from them but because international postage there is 10£ (!!!!) i decided to get them send to my BFs' address- i got the shades "Hot Pink", "Purple Mystique", "Jade Stone", "Pink Blush" and "Pastel Pink" and i guess i'm a little into pink lately ... but anyway i can't wait to try them out (in 4 days woot woot!)


I hope you are all having a nice Sunday i will do some eBay stuff later because i want to have some more money for great UK purchases hehe 

Do you have a favorite nail polish? if so which one is it? any brand you prefer? and what do you think is going to be the new "trend" polish this season? i read that purple grey is going to be huge now (and sold out on the Models Own online shop) 
tell me what you think
