She Made A Wishlist


Wishlists. Wrong name, if you ask me. Actually they are To-Buy-Or-Not-To-Buy-lists, because no matter how hard you're wishing; Santa only gives presents in December, the falling stars don't care about our little 'needings' and the idea of Fairy Godmothers is just ridiculous (unless your parents called you Cinderella, then you're allowed to try). Throwing coins in a fountain might work, but you could also save that money to actually buy the things you're craving. Want to see my picks for the upcoming month November?

She's Taking Pictures (Photo Diary II)



Monday morning, we meet again. When I wake up on monday mornings I just like to think about the beautiful quote in the picture above and pretend that I'm living in a country in which actually are any hills. Because dealing with the real life can be quite hard sometimes; a whole new work/school week to live through. Anyways, I wanted to show you what I did the past two weeks. It wasn't that much because of the exams I had, so I've planned some pretty cool stuff for the upcoming two weeks. Enjoy!

She's Got Stitches







Hi everyone! I'm sorry that I didn't post anything yesterday, and I also guess I won't be tomorrow, because the exams are really absorbing all of my time. After it I'll be back on track :) I used Essie's Recessionista and Catrice's Into The Bronx and a black nail polish (anyone will do) to make the stitches, since Halloween is almost there. I did it only on my middle finger and pink, because it wasn't as easy as I thought and I messed up my thumb. I applied only one layer of Recessionista by the way, it is that good. Have a nice day!

XOXO

She Reads The Thought Catalog

A few months ago I discovered the Thought Catalog, on Jade's blog. Although I like many articles on it, this is the one I loved the most. It is beautifully written. And so freakin', god damn true. I must confess; I'm a book geek. I happen to read a lot, and most of the time short stories aren't doing it for me, because I want to know the characters and stuff, the dept short stories most of the time lack. But this isn't about some character, it's about a real character. You. Me. Us.

She Spotted: New HEMA Make-Up


Yesterday, I spotted the new assortment of HEMA make-up at our local HEMA store. Finally! I'm sorry the quality of the pictures isn't very good; blame the awful light in this shop! As you can see there are loads of new nail polishes, a new golden mascara (fancy!), lip balm sticks, and some things that I've seen before but only were in the assortment during Christmas.

This Is Why People Are Staring At You



Train station. Early morning. Your cheeks are burning. You're trying to dig your head into the bordeaux red scarf you are wearing, until only your  hairline is visible anymore. Wishing you checked yourself twice in the mirror before leaving your house in a hurry, your feet are suddenly becoming very interesting. Your mind is spinning. What. The. Hell is going on? Is my hair doing something weird today? Slowly, you raise your hand and try to smoothen it down. More heads are turning. They're not smiling, only looking at you with eyes that are checking your every move. Hurry up legs, move faster. You look up to see you almost made it into your train. Just a few more steps on your new high hee.. "Mommy! Why is that girl hugging the ground?"

She sees scarfs, hot chocolate and.. Kenzo!



We all know this sweater, right? I think it's save to say that this is thé musthave for fall 2012. They are everywhere! Here are some Kenzo inspiration pics, the Spring collection and things you need to know about this brand to be up-to-date!

She Loves: Studio Ghibli



A few months ago, I discovered something which made me question my raising. Why didn't my parents ever tell me who Hayao Miyazaki was? How did I miss Studio Ghibli? I can vaguely remember the name "Spirited Away", but I definitely never saw it. Really, these movies are just great. No, I don't have a thing for child movies, and neither for anime. And I'm eighteen. But Studio Ghibli's movies are ageless, and made by people who have a heart for it. Sometimes they're a little bit weird (Japanese humor, you know) but above all, this movies are very endearing. Here are my favorites!

She Hangs Them In A Tree


















This is a part of my jewelry stash, I hanged them in a tree. It was a gift; so I don't know where it came from, but I'm in love with it! This isn't my whole stash; when there are too many things hanging in it, it tends to look a little bit messy. The masks I got from a friend of mine from Barcelona. Have a nice sunday!

She Has Current Beauty Favourites


I decided to show you the three beauty-products I use the most lately. They're in my stash for two months or something, and I can't live without them anymore. Take a peak!

She's hooked: Heist (Itunes #1)


If there's one thing I love the most, it's people with a great passion for something. Their whole lives evolve around it, and from the moment you met them (well, I didn't actually met them, but the first time I saw their videos), you know that there will be nothing standing in their way. Yesterday, the 9th of October, came a new album out. The Heist. And I'm completely, utterly hooked.

She's Testing Youtube Tutorials




How to curl your hair without using any heat? Youtube has the answer. Since I was born a little sceptic, I decided to try one of these tutorials out. The tutorial I picked is from Makemeupology, which has over 620.000 views at the moment. It claims loose curls in two minutes, without using any heat. Sounds awesome, right? I tested it for you!

She's Got Stylenomics


One of the most popular colors for this season is dark green. And when I saw the new Stylenomics collection from Essie, I just knew I had to have this one. I also bought Recessionista, I'll swatch this one too, because it's also very, very pretty. The first picture was made in the sunlight, but because the weather here changes every minute, the other three aren't. There's really a difference, with sunlight you can clearly see that this nail polish is green, and without it tends to look more black. A real fall musthave, if you ask me!







XOXO

PS I'm also blogging for a week now! And I'm really happy with every new view I get, it really motivates me!

She Is Crying Over An Audition

"Oh my God, I feel so happy for her, I could almost cry! Wait.. I am crying! Look! I've got tears in my eyes!" All right, not everyone of you would actually cry, but don't we all have those little lump in our throats when someone 'who really deserves it' passes the auditions for The X Factor or Blablabla's Got Talent? I don't know if the opposite sex has it too, but I know that me and some of my friends can get a little bit emotional when it comes to auditions. But why?

She Did Some Shopping


Yesterday, after my college, I went into town with a friend. I saw an old Chinese lady standing alone in the middle of the square, feeding sea gulls. She wore an old supposed-to-be-white jacket, and she looked rather happy throwing bread at the birds. I wished that I had a good quality camera to capture that moment, but I didn't. So I'm thinking about getting a good camera now. Oh, and of course for making pictures of the stuff I bought afterwards, because I realized that I didn't want to end up in old supposed-to-be-white jackets. Click read more if you want to see what I bought!

She Has Given Birth To A 2 Minute Hair Tutorial




   


                          

Since I'm enjoying tutorials so much, I decided to make one myself. It's my first Youtube-baby, and I hope you'll handle it with care. I just wanted to show you a quick and easy hairstyle to begin with. It would mean a lot to me if you took the time to watch it :)

XOXO

She Is Watching A God Damn Twit Cam




So, yesterday evening, when I got tons of homework and loads of stuff to do, I decided that this would be the right moment to do nothing and watch a twitcam from Niall Horan, an Irish lad who's very popular right now, because he sings in the boy-band One Direction. After a quick calculation I knew that he would online at 8pm in my country, and at 8pm exactly I sat fully dressed and with an awesome makeup look behind my computer (I knew I'd only be seeing him, and he wouldn't be seeing me, but hey, I like to look stunning on dates) and waited. Click 'Read More' for MTV's biggest disaster date. Ever.

She Has Seen Some Movies (September Edition)

One Day


One day (Who else goes immediately like "baby we'll be old.."? Damn you, Asaf Avidan) is a movie from 2011 with Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess. According to IMDB it's a 6.8-er, but I think that this movie deserves at least a 7.5, because it almost made me cry. Almost, because I was watching it with a friend, and I don't like to sob in front of other people. But I sure was having a hard time.

She's Going To Rock That Ring





A couple of weeks ago I bought this huge-ass Gold Tone Double Rock Ring from the River Island in Amsterdam. It's really an eye catcher, and I got a lot of stares. Also it's a bit heavy, and after two days of wearing it the skin of my middle- and ring finger became a bit reddish. But I don't mind, because I feel like this shiny baby just makes my outfit more complete. 

What do you think of it?
