Hema nagellakjes-Pastel

Hallo Belles, 

Eindelijk weer een blogje. 

Nog een paar maanden en dan is het weer lente en kunnen de donkerkleurige nagellakjes weer de kast in.

Het wordt weer tijd voor de zachte pastelkleuren bv.

Deze zijn van een eerdere collectie van Hema. 

Will be back!

It's been a while I have blogged but bear with me. I will blog more soon!

I just made a schedule ( not too strict) so I can blog better regularly.

Lately I have read a book about blogging which helped a lot. I have good hopes for this new year ;-). 

Blogs will be in English or Dutch and with as many images as possible.

 

Happy 2015!

Merry Christmas!

To wish for; Urban Decay Naked box

Wow, this is a beautiful box from Urban Decay! 

Who wouldn't want to have that in her make up-collection!

Hello Belles,

Are you enjoying the new season? 

It's a bit different know. Less sun, more rain and a bit more difficult to get out of bed.

Still this is a very nice autumn to enjoy. 

The beautiful colors make it a wonderful walk in both nature and city.

Why not bring autumn into home? And don't forget to dress warmly.

You don't want to catch a cold.

Decorate your home in autumn style

Beautiful autumn colors

Flomar make up look

Hi Belles,

I hope you are well and you have had a good week!

Today I show you a grey/black look with Flomar make up.

The eye shadow is good pigmented and the quality is good. The eyepencil is a bit harder to apply but it stays well also. 

I certainly am satisfied about the pigmentation and quality. The eye shadow is still in place after a few hours.

Have a good look

Eyeliner- Company

With the current edition of the magazine Company came a eyeliner.

A good reason to write a product review again! 

The eyeliner is not from the best quality at first sight but after wearing it a work day it appears the eyeliner is still going strong! 

Applying the eyeliner doesn't go smoothly but it's ok. Because of the fact it stays good the whole day  I will certainly use it again.

Friday night

It's Friday night! Are you ready to sit on the couch or are you going out?

Either way, enjoy the night!

Shop log

Yesterday I went to Amsterdam where I met a friend. I actually didn't buy anything but I got the Flomar make up from her. I will post a review soon of course!

The ankle boots I bought today. I am still looking for black ankle boots.
