DENIM IS DEAD

Got these two pairs of jeans from Denim is Dead from the sale at JC. They fitted perfectly, so let's just hope that they will stay that way. Most of my jeans don't...

DAYDREAM

A few months ago I got myself a sleeping mask from Daydream. I wasn't sure if I was going to like it, so I just got the cheapest one. Now, I can barely sleep without it. It's basically daylight 24/7 during the summer in Sweden, which I hate. But now I don't have to be bothered with that anymore! Does anyone else own a sleeping mask?

LUNCH TIPS

Lately, when I've gotten home from work, it's been really hot. On days like that I really don't feel like eating anything warm, so instead I've been eating different salads. Today I used quinoa (boiled, of course), some lettuce mix, cucumber, pepper and black olives. Then I make a dressing with lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper, that I pour over the quinoa. I was really hungry when I got home, because it was past 2 PM and I hadn't eaten since 6.30 AM, so I also had a slice of ciabatta and my own homemade bread. And yes, I had lunch at my desk. It feels so lonely to eat alone at the table... (: xx

Change that pillow case!

One very easy thing that you can do to improve your skin is to change your sheets more often. Or at least, change your pillow cases. I think that you should change the pillow case that you sleep on the most (if you're like me, you have that one, favorite pillow that you always sleep on) at least once a week. The more frequently, the better. But once a week is okay.

What do you think about posts like these? Good or bad?

Tonight I went out to eat dinner with my family. I just did my regular, everyday makeup (which is basically nuffin'). Since I've never shown you that before, I thought it was time I'd do. Foundation from Max Factor, brow powder from Make Up Store, mascara from Lancome and lip balm from Burt's Bees. I might use other lip products, or use something else, but this is what I always use. I also always use different perfumes, but today i used this one from Versace. I always enjoy seeing what other people use, so I hope you do too.

I wore this new top from Acne. The necklace is from H&M. Goodnight people (: xx

COPPER

This vase caught my eye when I was at Mio, so I decided to buy it. I'm not quite sure where it fits the best, but at the moment it's by my tv.

Scrubbing tips

The reason that I'm doing this post, is because I know that a lot of people scrub. Every. Single. Day. Especially their faces. And that's not particularly good. Remember that you're scubbing off a thin layer of skin, and there's no need to do that every day. My skin therapist have told me to scrub my face once or twice a week, and that's enough. You also need to be a lot more gentle when you scrub your face, compared to scrubbing your body, because the skin on your face is a lot more sensitive. Just let your hands glide over the skin, and let the scrub do the rest of the job. The last thing that I want to tell you is that scrubbing makes your skin more prone to UV damage. Some people say that you should never scrub if you're going to be out in the sun. I'm not sure if it's that harmful, but I definitely think you should be aware of it and remember to always wear sunscreen if you're going to be outside a lot.

DIY: Sugar Scrub

I'm sorry for not posting anything for days. This week I've graduated 9th grade, which is kind of a big thing in Sweden. So I've been busy getting ready and going to parties, graduation ceremonies, etc. To make it up to you I thought I'd share a quick tip. Sundays are always my pampering days. One of the things that I like to do is scrubbing. It's really easy to make your own sugar scrub. All you need is:

- Sugar
- Olive oil
- A jar

Then all you have to do is to mix the two ingredients in the jar, until you get the consistency that you want. Tadaa! Tomorrow I'll be making a post about some things you should think about when scrubbing.

Jofama by Marie Serneholt

I've been wanting a real leather jacket for years, but I hadn't found anyone that I really like, which is very important since a leather jacket basically lasts you forever. But then Jofama released this beauty in their collection with Marie Serneholt. I wished for it for my birthday, and as you can see, I got it. I've been wearing it almost every day since, ha. xx

NEW LAMP

I've been looking for a lamp to have on my bedside table, and a few days ago I finally found one. I got this at Mio. The base is from a brand called By Rydéns, and the shade is from Eightmood. What do you think about it?

Just hangin'

I had been looking after a necklace like this since what felt like forever, then I finally found this at Gina Tricot. When I got home I realized that I have no real place for jewelry, except for my little box that I showed you, so it just ended up hanging here. It fits pretty good there, doesn't it? xx

Today I don't feel like doing anything

Today has been a lazy day. I've just been laying outside in the sun reading and in the afternoon I got a painful facial (that was my own fault. But it's worth it). Tonight I've been even more lazy, lying in bed, making a shopping list and then watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians. This season's first episode is hilarious. While watching I had something to drink, and a brownie (: xx

SHOES SHOES SHOES

I'm currently being a major shoe whore. These lovlies from Jeffrey Campbell are two of my favorites. Unfortunately I don't have any money for them at the moment, but hopefully they'll be waiting for me when I do have. xx

#WECANTSTOP

Have you heard Miley Cyrus' new song We Can't Stop yet? It was released just a few hours ago, and I already love it. I just got it off iTunes, so now I can listen to it whenever I want mwahaha.

May Favorites

I thought I'd start doing some monthly favorites! These are my May ones.

Lernberger Stafsing BB Cream You might remember when I got this? I wrote in that post that I was going to use it mainly as a heat protectant. What I like about this product is that it does not weigh my hair down. And it does not make it feel dry, nor greasy. I don't feel like my hair has become more damaged since I started using this, which must mean that the heat protecting ingredients are doing their job.

Exuviance Rejuvenating Bionic Scrub I really love this scrub! My skin feels and looks so much smoother and softer after using this. It's is only a sample size, but I will definitely purchase the full size one after I'm out of this.

Dove Pure Anti-Perspirant Roll-On This deodorant does not contain fragrance, parabens, colorants or alcohol. It's also the first deodorant in this price range that I've used during the last months, that has not irritated my skin, which I think is enough to make it worthy of being in this post.

Juicy Couture Viva la Juicy This is far from the only perfume that I've used this month, but it's definitely the one that I've reached towards the most often.

The Great Gatsby Last Saturday I went and saw The Great Gatsby with three of my friends, and now it's one of my all-time-favorite movies. I loved everything about it: the actors (if Leo doesn't get an Oscar for this I will explode!), the music (I mean, Lana Del Rey, Beyoncé, Florence and the Machine, Jay-Z and Kanye. Can it get any better?), the clothes, the scenery and most of all; the fact that it takes place in the 1920s, my favorite decade alongside with the 1960s. I'll be very much disappointed if the 2020s won't be known as "The roaring 20s", just like the 1920s.

It's My Birthday and I Do What I Want To

Today is my birthday! As you might understand from the text on the picture, I'm turning 16. In Sweden, turning 16 is not a big thing. It's not like you throw a big party, like a lot of people do in the US. The one big pro is that you finally get to practice driving a car! Which I did today. And it went good (((:. One of the things that I got was a new lens for one of my cameras, which I was trying out when I took this picture. What do you think?
