A quick inspiration post! After I redesigned the website, I realized that all of the mish-mash on the top sort of reminded me of my favorite jewelry designer, Michal Negrin. If I ever were to start my own jewelry business, it would definitely be in this style. I love all the little details and trinkets! I own a couple of pieces, but they are not here with me in Japan, so I couldn’t take pictures of the pieces I own. However – it is all faux jewelry, but the quality is really good and long lasting.
// & I am going on a trip today, so no new posts until tomorrow night! Have a lovely weekend darlings!
Two new dresses that I got last weekend. (+ a couple of books with more book reviews coming right up in a separate post.) I love the whole sailor themed thing these days, I can not wait to wear the blue dress out. The top part of it is completely see-through, so that i good considering the hot summer here atm.
A couple of little accessories I bought a couple of days ago. When I was younger, one of my favorite things to photograph was all the faux jewelry I had. Good times.
I’ve been having some really ugly weeks lately, no matter what I put on, no matter how I did my makeup I just felt kind of slobby. Yesterday I went and got a haircut, and it worked wonders. I also got some new clothes, was looking for bottoms only right now. I usually only wear black clothes (no, not goth or metal inspired, I just feel like any other color hasn’t suited me for the past years,) but I actually got some skirts and shorts in different colors this time around.
Apparently you can wear the dotted skirt both ways, but I think I prefer it with the dots facing outwards. The other skirt looks a bit conservative, but since the rest of my clothes are not, I think it will be just perfect. I never used to like dark blue garments before, but it is growing on me.
The material of these shorts are half-shiny, and they had some cute details over the side pockets.
Maybe sailor theme is a bit last year, but I never got into it back then, so when I saw these shorts now I thought they were really cute with the little belt and buttons.
I almost, just almost, want to get a helmet like they have in Brødrene Dal, but luckily I can stop that urge and just go with these shorts instead.
My friend’s friend asked me if I could be a makeup-model, and I thought it sounded like fun to get my makeup all done for free, so of course I said yes. It was a lot of fun, and since I never do my own makeup with these kinds of colors it was nice to see a different look than what I usually go for. I tend to lean to browns, making it darker around the globe-line, but the way the makeup was done today was nothing like what I put on myself, but it actually looked a lot better than what I would have thought to begin with. I had to take a couple of pictures myself to document the whole thing, so here they are. I am not sure which of the color schemes I like the best, in real life I actually like the blue/yellow, but when I see the photographs I tend to lean for the pinkish style. Which one is better?
This girl is so insanely talented. She completely restructures her facial features just with the help of makeup. It made me want to run and put on makeup myself. It kind of brought back the whole idea that a lot of people can look gorgeous if you just put in a little effort.
