Korres Lip Butter in Quince

Korres is a brand that has intrigued me for quite a long time now. It not being readily available where I live has made me stick to stalking their products online only and with every praise I read, I knew I wanted to try one of their lip butters. After checking out review goddess Adrienne it was Quince that won me over -- a mid-toned blue pink that would add only a hint a color to my everyday makeup while making sure my lips stay in tip top condition.

(A wagonload of) Empties #5

Hi guys!

I am very far from being a hoarder or a messie, but I've been meaning to blog about these empty products for a while now and I just haven't gotten around to. I've binned them a long time ago (two months ago I believe?), so there's new trash that will find its way into your subscription boxes soon haha! Since they are an awful lot, I'm just typing down the product names. If you are interested in hearing my opinion on a certain product, please don't hesitate and contact me.

My struggles with blogging

Hi everyone!

Well first of all, thank you for being incredibly patient and not unsubscribing from this blog even though there was approximately zero activity on here for almost three months! I recently decided I wanted to blog again, but only under certain conditions which I am determined to explain to you.

In the past, I always went through phases of blogging and not blogging. In 2013, I want to break this habit. I realized I cannot keep up and post every other day, I've actually never really had the time for it due to being very busy in school and also working at a newspaper as well. Since I am graduating this year, I won't have it in the near future neither. Therefore I plan to take up blogging, but without stressing myself out too much. If I can post once a week, good! If I can post twice, awesome! But if I cannot post at all, well then so be it.

In 2012, the main thing I learned was to enjoy life as much as possible and mainly this: to only do what I really like doing in my free time. I do enjoy blogging, it enables me to write about anything I like and to share my passion with people from all over the world. I like to put as much effort as I can into everything that I am doing and so in 2013, I am going to post less, but aim to improve the quality of my blog posts.

I am thrilled to pick up one of my favorite hobbies again and am very excited to be able to share it with you.

I'll see you in my next post (which will be published within the next three months haha!)

My Week(s) On Instagram #9 (LIFE UPDATE!)

Hi guys!

I know it's been forever and a day since I wrote my last post on here (probably like two weeks ago!?) but I was truly busy and also had some health problems - namely a laceration plus concussion - that knocked me out and made the whole process of working like a mad women a bit more difficult. I thought I'd give you a little update on that and at the same time tell you I might stay a little more absent on here than I like to be for at least a couple more weeks. I haven't been instagramming much, simply because there's not too many exciting things in my everyday life haha! Anyway, on to the photos...

Out and about with my sunnies on // Feasting on pasta, my all time favorite food // Hoarding beauty trash, how glam!

Spotted my future husband in the H&M fall catalog // Loving this Keane song // Little Miss Sunshine :-)

I'm off to Berlin next week, so I'll try to maybe schedule one or two posts for you then and also do my September Favorites!
