Small celebration!

Tonight I was invited to a friend’s surprise party, which was actually a small gathering to celebrate his birthday. It’s Monday night and everybody has to go to work tomorrow so it was a casual thing. So my outfit was semi-casual, especially since I had to go there straight from work. I wore a lovely sweater that I bought on sales. I had been looking for a loose knit with thick horizontal stripes for a while and I was so glad I found this one!





Knit sweater and boots: Bershka
Shorts and trench: Zara
Bag: Mulberry for target


Face: Avon Ideal Shade Cream-to-Powder Foundation, Nivea perfect cover concealer
Eyes: Benefit soft shoulder e/s, Mac liquid eyeliner, Korres black eyeliner, Max Factor masterpiece max mascara in black/brown
Elf contouring blush and bronzing powder
Lips: Exclusive elegance double lipgloss

I have to catch up on my blog reading again and hope I can do some of it tomorrow. And as for your lovely comments, thank you all so much!!!

Staying in!

Busy day today and although I have a party invitation for tonight I don’t think I’m going to make it. I think I’m turning into a couch potato lately (or just plain potato, haha)!
Last night I saw a magnificent movie, Changeling with Angelina Jolie. You know I love the 20’s, so I admired her style and beauty, as well as the photography and costumes. I’ve been obsessed with that era lately, having also watched the “Boardwalk Empire” which was a TV series for HBO, directed by the great Martin Scorsese. I’d give anything to do the make up for a similar movie or TV show!






Shirt: Boohoo
Dress: Soul Rebel
Boots: Bershka
Tights: Calzedonia

Face: Benefit Some kind-a-gorgeous, Nivea perfect cover concealer, Elf complexion perfection
Eyes: e/s from NYX smokey eyes palette, NYX highlight e/s, Korres black eyeliner, Estée Lauder sumptuous mascara
Cheeks: Benefit coralista
Lips: Carlo di Roma lipgloss No27, La Roche Posay lipliner in rouge pur

Have you seen any good movies lately? And if you know of any movies/tv shows that deal with past decades, I’d love to hear about them...
