Weekend style: busy bee

Hello stars

I can't believe it's almost May, and I just realized that it's my confirmation (it's a church thing/when you go from being a child to being an adult) very soon. Oh, and I'm so busy, I even don't know what we will eat to the party, and some of my family members are already coming tuesday. 

Today (or yesterday) I had a sleep over party with my BFF with pizza, face mask and movies. The next morning (today) we went to see our other friend be confirmated or whatever it's called on english. Tomorrow I plan the last thing for my confirmation and go to the hairdresser with my mom.

This weekend style is very similar to my outfit that I wore today (saturday).

Btw, if you haven't seen the movie "Austenland" you definitely should. It's literally a movie about me, or you if you are also a Jane Austen fan.


Dress - AE
Shoes - Converse
Bag - Zara

Monday in my shoes ღ


Hello stars

Today was the last day of my Easter/spring break, and I will be starting school again tomorrow. Jubii! Not that I don't like holidays, but it can be a little boring sometimes. So I'm happy to start school again, and meet my friends and teachers (not).
But the thing that I'm trying to say is, that this is a kind of Wake up with me/a day in my life - post. Just with shoes. I simply took a picture every time I change my shoes. And I'm actually surprised how many times I change my shoes during the day.
Let's just hop into it (like a Easter rabbit):



I woke up around 9:00 AM, and took my super comfy slippers on with some knee socks - it's my favorite
morning feet outfit. After that I eat breakfast with my "wonderful" family.






Then I got dressed and we went to the church. I wore a little black dress with a grey sweater, and my lovely
loafers.




After we got home from the church I change to my workout clothes, and went running with my mom in the forest. Oh it was so hard!



At home I took a shower and change to my normal clothes again. This time I took my cozy B&W socks on, and watch some YouTube videos, and drink some hot chocolate mmm....





After we eat dinner, I change to some comfy jeans and my favorite pink converse. Then I went for a walk with my mom and grandma.




After we got home I change to my pajama, took my ballet shoes on and start stretching and practicing ballet.
As I said, I start school tomorrow, so I think I go to bed now. Good night (or morning, or evening)!

Weekend style: Easter special ❀

Hello stars

Happy Easter everyone! Today I was in the church with my family, after that we just took a long walk on the beach and had some family-time. Tomorrow I will eat Easter breakfast with my family and just relax - so maybe I will write something. Except  of that nothing really happened in my life. I have two days left of my Spring/Easter break, and I'm actually happy to go back to school again (no I'm not a nerd, not at all... or maybe a little). But seriously it's really boring to just sit at home, and don't do anything. Oh, I just forgot to say that it was super hot today, jubiii I LOVE SUMMER!!!

This weekend style reminds very much about the outfit that I wear today, except of that there was no unicorn on my sweatshirt (only two dogs). 


Pleated skirt - Zalando
Unicorn sweatshirt - ASOS
Clutch - Net a porter
Flat iron - Urban outfitters
Watch - Nelly

P.s. 
Here is a little Easter gif(t) 



Magic mirror in my hand, who is the fairest in the land? But the mirror is broken...


Hello stars!!!

Don't you remember the fairytale about Snowwhite? I do and I got inspired to make this pretty DIY-mosiaic mirror vase. I actually made this some time ago but I post it today. I made this out of some old CD's but you can also use small mirror cubes that you can buy at craft stores if you like to. I use this to storage nail polishes, but you can also put flowers inside or makeup brushes or whatever you like.
So I hope you like it!
And see you soon.



Love and glitter

Dot dot dot... blue box

Hello stars

So I went to the beach yesterday, and something inspire me to do a DIY with something blue in. I don't know why, so don't ask me... But it's just a super super super easy way to make a boring tea box a litle bit more cute... or something. I think I will use my box as a jewellery box or maybe as a box for all of my pens that does not work anymore, but are too cute that I can throw them out.








First to the materials:
You'll need a box, a cotton swab, acrylic paint and painting brushes.









1. Cover your box with acrylic paint.









2. After it's dry take your cotton swab and make some dots with another acrylic paint.









3. Then I just painted the "flaps" or whatever it's called.
And then: Let it go dry :'-)



Hope you liked it! See you soon, and happy Easter!!!

If you can dream it you can buy it ♥

Hello stars

I hope you are well! I found some spring favorites/things I want to have, and I thought that I could share it with you.

So first, I love the pineapple frame from Zara home and the mint colored owl from H&M home. They are so cute!!! But I think I couldn't get myself to burn the owl (ha ha burn the owl), it's just too cute and minty. Some lace ballerinas and a white blazer is my must have for the spring. Another thing that I am in love with and need to own is the unicorn dress from ASOS, it's so amazing!!! Here are 3 reasons why the dress is fabulous:
1) It have small purple unicorns on!!! OMG
2) The dress have a cut out heart on the back
3) It's actually on sale right now.

The Ted Baker makeup bag is ofcourse also on my Spring-list. I love the light pink color, but it's also available in mint green. Another light pink thing that also is available in mint green is the metal container from H&M home. Last but not least the makeup: A glitter pink OPI nail polish from the Muppets most wanted 2014 collection. A grapefruit and aloe vera body butter from Bliss - Nelly , and a light pink lipstick from Lime Crime (it have unicorns on). Oh, and I almost forgot about the cool minty sunglasses from Topshop.

Weekend style: spring break ☼

Hello stars

I have Spring break now! Woop woop!
So I'm sure that I'm gonna write something more often, because I know that I haven't been a really good blogger in the last couple of weeks. But seriously if you get an essay in History and you have 3 days to write 7 pages about the Danish constitution, then you are busy.
Today I was shopping with my mom in Copenhagen, and tomorrow I will be going to a amusement park in Copenhagen with a really good friend.
And I know that it's maybe super hot where you live, but in Denmark it's about 10-15 degrees, so I can not wear shorts yet. 


T-shirt - Topshop
Bag - ASOS
Body butter - Nelly
Shoes - Nelly

Jeans - ASOS


Have a lovely weekend

Another goldish DIY

Hello stars

I hope that you have a great  weekend! Here is a(nother) gold glitter DIY - sorry for that but I'm really obsessed about gold glitter in the moment. This DIY can be used like a candle holder or pencil holder or whatever you like. I just use it as a candle holder, because I like candles and it givs a very nice light when I have a candle in it. 






First to the materials: 
You'll need a jar or another container, glue, a little paint brush, painting tape, ribbon and some amazing GLITTER. 








1. 
Fist remove the labels on jar













2. 
Then some masking tape on your jar 










3. 
Take your brush and gently put some glue where you want to have your glitter. 



4. 
Now sprinkle some glitter on!!!



5
Now gently tap your jar so the remaining glitter comes off. After that, remove the masking tape. 
Let your jar dry for about 1 hour or just during the night.






6. 
Now you can cover it with Mod podge if you want (I will personally recommend it). If you don't have Mod podge in your country don't worry, you can do it yourself. Just mix 1 spoon of glue with 2 spoons of water, and tadaa... now you have some Mod podge!










7. 
Add some ribbon if you want to and you are done!






I hope that you like this little DIY, and I hope that like the new design of my blog. I would change it a little bit, and make it more pink, and I actually think that it turn out pretty good.

See you soon.

A little summer Hollywood DIY ☼

Hello stars

Summer is almost here and and I have not really made any DIY's since the the begining of March so I thought that it was time for a little DIY. And what has more to do with summer than a pair of sunglasses? Maybe you know it already, but I'm obsessed about glitter! Glitter is my life (especially gold), so of course I would like to put glitter on my sunnies - to give them a more Hollywood-like look, and to make them look more vivid (or something). I know that black is black and it's classic and always fashionable, but to my it's maybe a little to... boring. So I transformed my glasses and gave them a little person twist, and I love it.




First to the materials:
You'll need some sunnies, glue, a little paint brush, painting tape and of course GLITTER





 1. Put some masking tape on your sunglasses (of course not on the frame)











2. Take your brush and gently put some glue on the frame so that everything is covered (but only the upper part of the frame)









3. Now to the fun part: Sprinkle some glitter on so that the top part of the frame is completely covered.








4. Now gently tap your sunglasses so the remaining glitter comes off. After that, remove the masking tape. 
Let your sunglasses dry for about 1 hour or just during the night.







5. Now you can cover it with Mod podge if you want (I will personally recommend it). If you don't have Mod podge in your country don't worry, you can do it yourself. Just mix 1 spoon of glue with 2 spoons of water, and tadaa... now you have some Mod podge!







I actually use some sunglasses I've purchased in H&M last year (they were on sale, woop woop!) and I just love them so much more now! But hope you like it and enjoy it!

Style inspiration: from cute frog to fashion princess



Hello stars

When I look at old pictures, I always think Wtf what was I'm wearing! Seriously when you put a pink polka dot skirt with jeans something is wrong with you, or was it trendy 5 years ago??? No, I don't think so, it's more like every kids are just experiment with different clothes. It's like makeup-do you remember when you took your mom's lipstick and eyeliner when she wasn't at home? Or was it just me...
The thing is, I think that Emma Watson also sometimes think what was I'm wearing, she is after all just a normal girl (except that she is a super successful actress and a beautiful style icon!). But do you remember this???



Little Hermiona (age 9 ) in a green outfit to the Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone premiere. Cute but not really fashionable (maybe in 2001 but not now). No hate, it's just... a little to greennnnnnnnn. In my opinion. Beside of that outfitt (and a couple of others) is Emma Watson one of my favorite young actresses/style icons/celebrities. Her style (now) is always super sophisticated and polished. Beside of that I think that she always will be remembered as the little cute and perfect girl who played Hermione (the internet never forget). But now just older and more sophisticated, always in dresses from the world's most fashion forward designers.

Here is my favorite look right now: Emma wears a Peter Pilotto fall 2014 dress at the Noah press conference.

And here is Emma's amazing fashion adventure:



Oh, and sorry that I havent write anyting in the last week, I was so busy after I came home from Ski holidays!
