One word: OMG In every year I'm super excited about their new collection because it's so well-represented on the runway, with all the superstars, hot bikini bodies and singers. I just can't wait until someone finally uploads the whole show to Youtube. Same happened in this year as well (instead of studying..khm) So since my birthday is coming along with Christmas I just want to collect all of those lingeries that captured my attention and I can tell you guys for sure, I will be heading to their store soon to check these out, because I just want to surprise myself on my birthday and this year's collection was epic. So let's see my ultimate top 5: High-Neck Lace Body with a keyhole front & strappy open back Link: https://www.victoriassecret.com/bras/runway-themes-collection/high-neck-lace-teddy-very-sexy?ProductID=320109&CatalogueType=OLS
The Cropped Bustier Uplift Link: www.victoriassecret.com/bras/runway-themes-collection/the-cropped-bustier-uplift-dream-angels-wicked?ProductID=319993&CatalogueType=OLS&layout=standard After a really long hiatus. I kinda missed my website since I was spending so much time with the outlook during the summer and topic collection, but long story short: I moved to Manchester, I've started my university, I got a new job and the last thing I had time for was writing anything here. Sadly. But now heading to the end of the first semester I have a bit more time to post and take photos. A lot has happened since my last blog post, but one thing has changed for sure. I no longer have long mornings to prepare breakfast, especially when I gotta go to work and then uni after work. So basically at 4am I eat what I found, but after almost passing out a few times, I had to realize that I have to find a healthy breakfast habit which is just as nurishing as delicious. No lies, it was hard. So in this post I just want to give you some tips about a quick(!) & healthy (!) breakfast. Since I have lactose intolerance it's been quite difficult to find breakfast ingredients, but by now I'm sure I solved this problem by finding so many Alpro products. These are the best ones for sure. I really love the taste, consistence, ingredients, design, so basically everything. And I'm glad that I found out that porridge can be delicious. I had struggles with its taste in the beginning, but since I'm using Coconut/Almond milk it's the best way to start my morning. But after a while I started missing toppings, and my plain porridge became extremely boring. So while I was doing shopping at Aldi I found some cranberries, blackberries, raspberries and I felt the urge to purchase them because I was pretty sure that its taste will be 100/100. (just don't forget to put them in the freezer, so you don't have to buy new packs every second day because they got rotten.) So porridge with some berries, syrup and nuts became part of my breakfast routine and it takes like 5mins to make it. Or just choose the old-fashioned cereal option with some Alpro plain yoghurt and some berries. No matter how much I love Nestle or other brand's cornflakes, nowadays when I see how much sugar is in 30g (bowl) I always put them back on the shelves, because I don't want to start my morning with such a high a dose of sugar. So always try to pick the healthies one, even if the Nestle chocolate balls are more tempting. Your body will thank later! If you want you can also add oats, syrup or other goodies to your bowl of yoghurt, because there's no bad way of doing this. Welcome back with another quick & healthy breakfast! This contains one of my favorite ingredients, so it's definitely a good choice to start your morning off right. Since I have lactose intolerance all of the recipes on this website will be made with lactose free products, in a dairy free way. And obviously chocolate is a weak point of mine, but eating dark chocolate is not forbidden for me, so I had to put it into this breakfast bowl. Moreover, since it's summer I wanted to eat something unusual, something fruity, light & delicious. It's not difficult to make these, you can use any of your kitchen & fridge ingredients, in any way you want. But here's mine: Ingredients: 1/4 cup of chia seed 1/4 cup of oats 1/4 cup of rice milk 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon raspberry musk melon dark chocolate (mine is 70%) crushed almond other seeds as topping I put the chia seeds to the fridge with the rice milk for like 5 mins. (I don't like it when they get too soaked and soft) Until then, I mixed the oats with some rice milk with a blender and I added the cinnamon. I put this to the fridge as well, to let it cool down. I chopped my dark chocolate, peeled my melon, washed the raspberries and added some other kind of seeds to my topping ideas with crushed almond as well. Layering: 1st: chia seeds 2nd: oats-cinnamon 3rd: toppings (raspberries, crushed almond, lemon, dark chocolate, seeds) Enjoy your breakfast!:) As I've mentioned in the previous post that I'd rather spend my money on high-end products, there are definitely some drugstore products that I love. The most important thing for me when I choose to buy a drugstore products are the following: ingredients, package, intensity of the color, and I usually check the reviews on the internet. Essence has always been the brand that represents the affordable make up goodies. It has amazing brushes, palettes, eyebrow kits etc. So everytime a new season is around the corner I know Essence has somehing new in the stores. Unfortunately I missed to purchase the winter collection, but maybe next winter. Let me give a quick review on these babes: 1. Essence Vintage Palette: I love Earth colors, so when I saw this palette on the shelves, it immediately landed in my basket. It has 8 beautiful shimmery colors all the way from pale & nude shades to this gorgeous deep, glittery green & brown. Creating transition shades is also super easyyy. The pigmentation is perfect, it stays on for hours (survived my 8-hour long shift) 2. Essence Bronze Palette I'm also a huge fan of bronze colors, bronze skin, eyeshadow, powder etc, so it wasn't a question if I want to purchase this beautiful palette or not. As you can see all of them are richly pigmented, vivid, and a perfect essential for summer makeups. 3. Essence Roses Palette: I'd say this palette has way more cooler shades than the above ones, so I'd use them during winter time or late fall, but it has just as gorgeous colors as the others. The deep shimmery purple is my favorite one, however it's not that easy to apply it, and those red glitters are not so visible once you've applied it. |
