my creations in a more completed colletion

H & M spring/summer 2011 - c o n s c i o u s collection

i officialy declare i'm a sucker for this collection!

femminine and a bit baby doll, perfect colors on a sun kissed skin, simple pieces with lovely details...
and i wouldn't care if i knew the clothes are probably going to be worn by many. i can't say i blame them :)

a little extra...

WoW! i somehow managed to go to Ljubljana without my camera - lovely!
i packed all sorts of cabels and battery chargers and i forgot the main reason i move all of that stuff back and forth. GREAT (NOT) start of the week.

I had no real inspiration to post something last week. I had so many ideas and i was so frustrated that i have to wait till the weekend to finally start realizing them. I have all my "things you need to be creative" stuff at HOME home in Celje, so weekend is really the time i come alive so to speak...hmm, that should really tell me smth :]


anyway...i started to browse around home decor websites and i didn't know that Zara Home is right around the corner...well in Zagreb; still close tho

and only thing that was going to my mind was - for what smartass reason we do NOT have Zara Home in Slovenia?!?! 

 

favorites

I was thinking of showing you some of my favorite cosmetic products i use (almost) every day.

1 - Lip Balm papaya from Body Shop; its my third one & i love it! it smells and feels great + it colors ur lips in a very neutral way    (price= 5€)
PROS: - texture
         - smell
         - pocket size
CONS: - applying with fingers
              - when it gets to the end, its really hard to get it out

2 - Body Butter - papaya & lemon from Greenland; this was part of a present for my mom, so i didn't actually try it before. After she tried it, i was convinced i wanted one for myself.                                        (price= 8€)
PROS: - texture (light butter (not greasy) that absorbs fast)
        - divine smell--> EVERY inch of the body smells like you've dipped into a
          tropical sorbee + its lasts
        - natural ingreedients
        - size (fits in any bag- great for travelling)
CONS: - size --> tho it fits everywhere i do think the ammount of it its rather 
            small, considering the price and usage
               - applying with hands, would be easier and less messier with a pump

3 - Aera Tent Pure cream foundation from Vichy; i've been using it 5 years now & im pretty satisfied with it                              (price= 17€)
PROS: - great coverege even if u use a small ammount
        - doesn't cover pores & leaves skin breathing
        - addapts to your own skin tone
            - SPF 20
CONS: - i don't know what bottle/tube/container it comes in currently, cuz i   
            always get it in a different form !?, the PUMP one is the best
               - during the winter, make sure u use a good fat face cream before 
            applying the foundation, sometimes it can dry the skin

4 - The Original mineral based eyeshadow palette from Divine; just got it a few weeks ago and i love it; colors are a bit shimmery and a bit more earthy; this one is great for blue eyes                             (price= 11€)
PROS: - small size
        - beautiful colors, great pigmentation
        - eyeshadows don't cake and they last a whole day (recomended to be
          used with primer)
        - can be used with water
        - suitable for light daily or glam evening make up
        - great price
CONS: - it is mineral, so it can be flakey
          - sponge brushes are no use (to me at least)

5 - Vitamine E hand & nail cream from Body Shop;        (price= 8€)
PROS: - tube, so its easy to use
        - light texture
        - fast absorbance
        - suttle flowery smell
CONS: - does nothing to the nails
          - more suitable for spring/summer/fall, for winter do get smth more
            richer in texture and ingreedients

6 -  Moringa Milk Body Lotion from Body Shop; love love love this one! (thnx Martina, my London supply fairy ;) )                     (price= 14€)
PROS: - pump, super easy to use
         - very light milky texture
         - super absorband
         - divine flowery smell
         - moisturizes & softens the skin
         - cooling effect
CONS: - more suitable to be used in warmer seasons, but u can use it over a
            thicker body lotion




So, thats it! ;)

day of poets

Today is..well WAS the day for culture.....for some just the day off. Not judging at all!
The sunny day was just perfect for spending it outside. I didn't, cuz i wasn't feeling all that good. I kinda regret it now, not taking a stroll.

I finnished 2 necklaces & had a delicious lunch (our neighbour celebrated her b-day so there was a lot of food)

glorious food !

they seem a bit chunky, but that was the look i was going for :]

fair

On sunday i went to a hair&cosmetic fair in my home town.
I think it was its second year, so it was pretty small, but i must say i expected more. 
It was mostly focused on nail art (they had nail painting competition the day before), presentations of new hair products for hair salons & cosmetic "alien" machines for cosmetic salons. So pretty much all the focus was on people with their own hair/cosmetic buisness.

I do hope the fair expands and attracts more companys (make up!!) in the years to come.

Tho it was small, i did manage to leave with some goodies ;)


I bought 3 nail polishes (yellow glitter, coral blue & clear glittler one) & tangle teezer - compact one (love it! - my mom got one for herself)

prezzie

it was my mom's & my best friends b-day this sunday (aquarius! - i got that theme song of the musical HAIR on my mind). 
age is but a number, so i don't think its important what is the equation of the years they are celebarting :)

my friend will have to wait for her prezzie to come via post :)

good day gov'ner! ;)

gift

i don't think i've mentioned it here, but i was incharge for 6 days in the shop, bacuse my bosses went to the Design fair in Milano.

apparently its gettin "cheaper" by the year. a lot of junk 2 see/buy and a lot less real designer brands (by them being there, you can expect a lot of inovative displaying of products and over all a "worth seeing" presentation of the brand & its designs)....so, they (my bosses) are regular at these fairs and they really noticed that some are gettin to be kind of a waste of time.

Next stop for them is Frankfurt (a lot bigger, better, more northern brands, especially Scandinavian & more international brands)

i can't wait to see the pics!!!

sooo..for a thank you for keeping eye on the shop i got this Diesel t-shirt from them (they L<3VE Diesel) ;)
