Beauty Favorites | New video



Just uploaded a brand new video after a seven month hiatus. Phew. I'm shocked at how easy it is to edit on my MacBook so I felt a little something inside that makes me want to post more. Now. Or tomorrow. Or very, very soon. Here's what I was wearing in the video:

Dress from nelly.com
H&M necklace gifted from my colleages
Nail polish is L'Oreal Island In The Sun

Half Baked, High, Beware, Riff and Buck eyeshadow from UD
24/7 Perversion liquid liner from UD
Urban Decay Trap lashes
Urban Decay Sheer Obsessed lipstick


Oh, I also dyed my hair back to pastels. Really liking this purple/pink combo right now. I will probably always return to these colors I think.

Mondays are a lot more fun when you don't have to leave your bed


Having a slow monday in bed with Netflix, music, yummy food and no real clothes is a pretty nice way to start a very busy and exciting week. I also decided that it was time to return to my pink hair - as always. I think pink is the color I've had for the longest now and also the color I feel most like myself in. Now I better get back to my How I Met Your Mother marathon :P Come by Makeup Forever in Sephora tomorrow if you wanna have your makeup done!

Job interview look


Sweet As Candy headband - vintage earrings - Asos dress

Oh my, it's been so long since I did a look of the day. The shame. Anywaysies, today I went to an amazing job interview and it went so well. Do you know that feeling of being so happy and excited that you just wanna squeal even though you're surrounded by people in the middle of public? That's how I felt when I left. If I actually squealed or not will remain unknown, but I have such a great feeling about this. Next friday at 10 I will have to go to a makeup test with a model of my own choice, so cross your fingers for me guys, and hope it will be fabulous! This job is so perfect for me, so hopefully I will have good news shortly. Eeeep, the excitement.

Outfit | Secondhand madness


Secondhand scarf - Holy Malice sunnies - secondhand coat - second hand dress - Miss Selfridge clutch - secondhand pumps

I went out for lunch and catching up with one of my best friends from Kolding where I used to live yesterday in what at first felt like early spring weather, but turned out to be so, so cold. You can almost tell how much I'm freezing in the photos, haha. Most of the outfit was bought last week while secondhand shopping with my grandmother. I've been finding so many secondhand treasures lately, and this faux fur is just perfect for my collection. I also have a love/hate relationship with this dress - love the print, cut and colors. Kinda hate the material and the way it looks on. Bummer, but for so cheap I really don't mind at all. So much looking forward to spring kickin' in, hopefully any day now. How's the weather where you guys live?

Outfit | Ghost Towns


Secondhand leather jacket - flea market sunnies - Q'neel seethrough blazer - eBay dress - Jeffrey Campbell Lita boots - secondhand bag - mixed rings - Glitter earrings

I wanted to share two amazing new secondhand finds with you guys - the perfect oversized leather jacket that I'm finding perfect for these late winter months and that I'm convinced will transition well into spring as well. I love it for it's wide shoulders and not very modern shape. The weekend bag is pretty much all I've been looking for to bring with me on mini trips. It caught my eye in a tiny secondhand shop in Copenhagen and I had to grab it along with the leather jacket for a more than reasonable prize. My lita's are in desperate need of some love, but who can blame them after two years of wear. This outfit is just perfect for the danish weather and my current mood.

Banana cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and white chocolate


As I told you guys I wanted to bake some pastel cupcakes and cookies for christmas, and here comes a recipe. They taste delicious, but after having survived three trainrides and an hour in a hot bus they don't really look that yummy anymore. Here's what you will need:

The cupcakes

150 grams of soft butter
150 grams of sugar
1 egg
1 dl. buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon of natron
a pinch of salt
a pinch of baking powder
130 grams of flour
3 small or 2 large mashed bananas
Paper muffin cups
Metal muffin cups

Preheat the oven to 160C. Whip together the soft butter and the sugar until it's white and fluffy. Whip the egg in, then add vanilla, the mashed bananas, the buttermilk and whip it again. Put all the dry ingredients together in a seperate bowl, mix it and then add the dry ingredients to the wet before whipping everything together one last time. Now put your paper muffin cups in the metal ones and fill the muffin cups 3/4 with the dough. Bake the muffins for around 30 minutes and let them cool off before decorating.



The Frosting

150 grams of soft butter
150 grams of philadelphia cream cheese
320 grams of icing sugar
1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice
Vanilla
Food color
1 bar of white chocolate

Mix together the soft butter, the cream cheese, the icing sugar, lemon juice and vanilla and play around with the food colors you like. I divided the frosting into two bowls. For the pink frosting I used a few drops of red food color and kept adding more to achieve the perfect princess pink. For the purple I started with blue (which turned the mix mint green) then pink and then blue again and kept adding more and more until I was satisfied. I applied it with a piping bag and blended it a bit more with a spatula. Lastly I chopped one bar of rich, white chocolate and sprinkled it on top. Enjoy, and let me know if you do this guys!



My family all loved these cupcakes and have all asked for recipes, so I definitely think they were a success. I really wanted to take nice photos, but my new camera is still on it's way to me, either arriving tomorrow or on the 27th :( It's so hard to stay patient when you're absolutely the opposit, I even called the mail office and got them to send it to another mail office closer to my family haha. Hope you can live with iphone pictures a little longer and also I hope everyone is having a wonderful christmas time! Can you guys believe it's the 24th in two days, ohmygod?

Pastel christmas inspiration


This christmas my biggest obsession has been pale winter wonderlands and pastel everything. I love how pastel christmas is so untraditional but in the same time just so appropriate. During december I get really sick of seeing red and dark green everywhere I turn and pale pink, mint green and baby blue is so much more girly and easy for the eye. I've found some amazing christmas photos with an atmosphere that's right up my alley since this month I've sadly not been able to decorate at all.


I'm currently waiting for my homemade sugarcookies to cool down so I can start decorating them with buttercream and sprinkles. Hopefully they turned out okay, but I'm gonna let my brother test them tomorrow haha. My camera still hasn't arrived :( I even called the shop both yesterday and this morning and they couldn't give me any useful information. I'm crossing my fingers it will come tomorrow instead.

Cocktails at Ruby's

This monday Lars got off work early so we went out for a few cocktails at Ruby's which was such a cosy, old school-feeling place with some really nice bartenders and the drinks were so strong that two for each of us made us tipsy. I felt like celebrating the last day of pink hair - for now - and the end of summer by dressing up in blue eyeshadow, floral print and loose wavy hair. I can't wait to show you guys my new hair eeeep!

BEACH PARTIES



I'm missing summer, heat, exotic countries, beaches, nature, the sun and getting away so much at the moment that I've started editing myself into exotic photos. Great way to spend your time while waiting for spring to finally kick in, huh?!

RETURN OF THE PINK HAIR


I'm so sorry for not having updated for a while, I'm really sick at the moment and haven't even been feeling like putting on any makeup the last few days. I think my boyfriend have infected me with his cold or influenza and now I'm suffering big time, just cuddling on the couch watching bad movies. Ughh but I can't keep being a lazy person, so I decided to ignore my roots and dye my hair pink again, still waiting for my new extensions to arrive, but I'm already feeling much better. I will return with something interesting soon!

Hair preferences?





So I thought about it, when I fell over this old picture of me with darker pink hair, and something made me think about this much newer picture of me with pastel hair. It really makes a big difference, even though it's basically the same colors used? I feel much more comfortable in pastels though. But what do you guys prefer? Light and pastel or dark and much more neon?

Pastel hell.

 

Wearing Fishbone hoodie, vintage 80's t-shirt, black nylons and Nelly wedges

An outfit like this could get kinda boring, so spicing it up with some wedges, giant eyelashes and Saint Germain lipstick is a good way to go. It's a super comfy outfit and since I'm not doing anything special tonight I figured this would be alright. Also I'm still loving my new extensions, I love waking up everyday still feeling like a mermaid.
Oh, and please keep subscribing and sending me video ideas right HERE

Pastel pink hair.



As talked about earlier, I wanted to get pastel colored hair, and now I got it!
I am really satisfied with the result, and I didn't even use a lot of dye. It's going to be cheap to keep nice, which is really good. All you need to do, is get the semidye you want, and delute it with a lot of white conditioner, and you should get fabulous pastel colored hair!
