January is over and with that, let's start a new series on this blog
Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce :
10 FAVOURITES !!
At the start of every new month, I'll share 10 lovely things I've bought, seen, listened to or experienced during the previous month. And to kick this series of, I'm gonna share my 10 favourites of January.
1. Max-factor colour elixir lipsticks
Even though these beauties haven't been in my possession for very long, they have already become my favourite lipsticks of all time! Are there any ladies out there with full lips like mine? Well then you probably also know one of the struggles of having big lips: THEY DRY UP LIKE NOBODIES BUSINESS! Especially in the wintertime. No matter how much lip balm you put underneath your lipstick, 30 minutes outside and your lips look like those dry patches of dirt in the dessert. No one wants that! I found these two on sale and thought I'd give them a go and they are amazing! They are soo moisturizing that you don't even need to put a lip balm underneath. I love them and so does my lips.
I have the shades:
720 Scarlet Ghost
711 Midnight Mauve
For the first time ever I had a new years party without my parents. My roomate and I had invited a few girlfriends over and we had a blast. One of my friends introduced me to this song and now everytime I listen to it, i remember all the fun we had that night. Also the song is hilarious and so random and really cheers me up. So if you have a soft spot for weird 80's music like me, you should give it a listen.
3. The Perfect Pair of Trousers
"I have a biiig butt and I cannot lie!" (if you did not sing that, you must be an alien).
I hate finding trousers, because nothing ever fits right, I have a big butt and a small waist, so if they fit around my bum, they do not fit around my waist and visa versa. Finding a pair of trouser that actually fits right is like christmas all over again. I found such a pair and not only did i find the perfect pair of trousers - they were also ON SALE. There really is a God after all.
4. The Seventh Son
Last Sunday in a fit of boredom, I went to the cinema with my little sister and I'm glad I did. I didn't know much about the movie, but from the small part i read on the cinemas website, it reminded of I book I had read around the age of 9 called "The spooks apprentices" and I loved the book and was excited to see if it had any connection. It did and i was pleasantly surprised. I also helped that they had Ben Barnes playing the main part - I've had a crush on him every since Narnia: Prince Caspian. So if your are looking for something to watch, i would recommend this.
5 .Bob The Blender
Okay. So I found this blender on sale and it has changed a lot of my eating habits. I've never owned a blender before, so I didn't know what the fuzz was about - but after getting one, I don't know how to live without it. Smoothies have become a stable in my diet and soups are 10 times faster to make. I've grown so attached, that I've named him Bob. Don't judge me please.
6. Snow
I'm totally a winter person and the snow started falling here in Denmark about two weeks ago and it's gorgeous outside,
7. Little sisters 17th birthday
My little sister turned 17 in the beginning of January and it really got me all nostalgic. 17 was a big year for me and seeing her turn 17 really opened my eyes to how quickly time goes by and I'll admit, it made me tear up a bit.
8. Jamie Olivers overnight bircher museli
On my "feel better" quest this year I've been looking for healthy yet easy recipes for everyday meals. Cooking something fancy and complicated every day when you work almost 40 hours a week is just not possible. This recipe is DELICIOUS and soo easy.You prepare it the night before and it stay good for days! It leaves me feeling full, fresh and ready to start my day. It has become a stable in my diet.
9. Pigs feet and ladybugs
In case you didn't know, I'm danish and I work in a daycare. With such a job, you get a lot of special little moments. In Denmark, when shoes are put on the wrong way, you call it pigs feet. I don't have any clue as to why we call it that. We just do. While helping all the kids getting dressed for going outside to play in the snow, a girl called my name to show me her new pink winter boots with ladybugs printed all over them. I looked over to see them and said: "Yearh they are very pretty, but that's pigsfeet" because her shoes were on the wrong way. She then looked over at me very insulted and sayid: "IT IS NOOOT! IT'S LADYBUGS!"
This little memory still makes me chuckle a bit.
10. Ombré
Can we just all take a moment to appreciate how amazing you feel, when you get that new risky haircolour or haircut and it looks AMAZING? I have done a lot of crazy things with my hair over the years and my hair needed a vacation. For about two years I've dyed it blond every 2 months and my hair was not happy about it. So I decided to ombré it! I kept the blond in ends and dyed the roots to match my natural haircolour. My hair is taking a well deserved holliday and i think it looks amazing.
(pictures coming soon, promise!)
I can't wait for February! It holds a lot of promise.
