SOS: totally last year

Hello stars

So it's now time for another "sound of sunday" post! Jubii! I'm in Cyprus (where my aunt live) now and it's is hot and I'm so lazy... even to lazy to write a blog post. So because it's sunday I've decided to post a SOS. For this SOS I've decided to show you some of my favorite last-year-songs that I listen to right now.

Nr. 3
Lana Del Rey - Blue Jeans





Nr. 2
Coldplay - Paradise 





Nr. 1
Tom Odell - Another Love

Summer DIY: My own gold animal

Hello stars

When I was in Paris, I saw this super cool gold alligator and I just thought that it would look amazing in my room. I begged my mom but she refused and instead of saying "Of course Alexa, it is totally awesome" (okay, my mom would never use the word totally awesome), she said "I will never pay 35$ for a golden sprayed lizard".
Okay, I didn't get the gold alligator, but when I got home from Paris, I saw a green plastic alligator in our local thrift store. So I decided to personalize it a little and it turned out pretty good.

Materials: A plastic animal, golden paint or spray paint, a paint brush, glue and something to personalize your animal (for example a bow) 


1. Paint your animal and let it dry. 


2. Personalize it

Weekend style: back to pineapple

Hello stars

I've been away for a while (actually two weeks) and I feel a little like a bad blogger. But I was in Paris with my mom, I had some ballet performances and I was to a One Direction concert (OMG it was so amazing!), so I simply couldn't make it. I only have one week of school left, after that I will be flying to Cyprus to my aunt and cousin.

Back to the weekend style - this weekend I have another ballet show, after that I'm going to a sleepover party with my four friends. I decided to go with this season's darling - the pineapple. Pineapples are so cute, and they look so good as print on skirts, dresses or blouses. Beside of the pink pineapple skirt, I also found 3 different pineapple candles that definitely are going right on my "Things to buy"-list. I also found this super cute light pink bag from Accessorize and it is matching the skirt. Beside of the bag, I think that the skirt also will look good with the black crop top, sunglasses and sandals.


Skirt - River island    
Crop top - Topshop
Shoes - ASOS
Sunglasses - Net a porter
Bag - Accessorize
Candle - Urban outfitters
