time for new shoes...

/

I have been in "need" of fabulous new shoes. Being a busy bee at the moment and the whole day on my feet I should better go for trainers or some sort of healthy shoe. I usually don't like compromises either. But hey, I have to grow up or at least sometimes make a grown-up decision. Just in case you are in the same boat, I have a shoe hybrid recommendation for you.

These heels are comfortable, but they are making your legs look loooong. Might be good for dance-loving-brides(-maids) as well? I got my new heels from very.co.uk because of my moving chaos situation I haven't found the time to go shopping lately. (hooray for online shopping!)

I am still trying to ignore the winter and snow outside. That's why I am digging orange lips right now they remind me to focus on the upcoming holiday. If you like the orange "let's-escape-winter-look" as well, you can find a make-up tutorial for this look here. Through my new day job beside Blushless I decided to listen to my passion and the direction that life is pushing me through. That means I am about to start a new career as make up artist. It's not a completely new field for me but I will built a brand new portfolio and keep learning.

it is definitely winter

These are lifting me up: + First of all congratulations to winter bride Anna And The Ring, who just tied the knot, at the weekend. + I love the mug with the reindeer by Hudson's Bay x Geoff McFetridge, it reminds me that I will escape the winter soon towards hot Australia. + Orangey-red lipstick and glowing cheeks: A warm look that cheers me up and could do as bridal make up!? via Vena Cava + The words KOALA ROOFTOP & ROCK POOL that I discovered while planning the holiday. Yes, we are going on holiday! Yes I am going to meet the parents. The weather in London lately feels life threatening. For me. I am just not built for it. I know that some people don't mind winter and others even enjoy it. I am trying.

The smell of a Love Song

/

Tiempe Passate by Antonias Flowers is my favorite fragrance at the moment. It was named for a love song written by her grandfather in the 1920s. I tried to figure out more about the song but couldn't find any lyrics. Anyway it's an incredible unique sent with notes of bergamot, clementine, sage, mimosa, cyclamen, Montauk rose, white orris, cedar, vetiver and amber.
