Latest Beauty Crush: Body Shop’s Fresh Nude Foundation You know me and my overly dry skin, it’s literally a nightmare when it comes to finding the right foundation that would leave my skin luminous and dewy, while also give it just enough coverage without making me look like a doll. WOW! Quite a challenge, eh? I’d normally opt for my all time favourite Rimmel ‘Wake me up’ foundation in shade ‘Sand’ 300), but with my face becoming paler and paler (like… I live in Copenhagen now) the shade of my foundation had to also change. And while I’m still a massive fan of Rimmel and their ‘Wake Me Up’ divinity, when it comes to the shades it offers - Rimmel miserably fails. A few weeks ago, we got in store Body Shop’s latest Fresh Nude Foundation and the wide range of shades it offered (15) lured me to actually give it a go. … Læs mere
3 Things I’ve Been Loving Lately It’s my free day today and what a better way to spend it than catch up with my Danish studies? Yep, I’ve already started attending Danish lessons, and my enthusiasm has slowly started dying since the moment I realised that my flare for ‘grammar’ (when it comes to languages) won’t matter that much this time. Danish is all about the pronunciation – and for a native Bulgarian speaker that’s pretty bad news. But before I hit Baresso, and dedicate the rest of my day to the holy Danish, I’ll first do something much more fun and share with you 3 of the things I’ve been loving lately. Jumpers in Light/Silver Grey: Even though I’m really doing my best to purchase pieces in colours outside the monochrome palette.. well, I’m miserably failing as you can see. Thankfully, I’ve discovered a colour that I genuinely like and that also goes … Læs mere
Back to B&C Denmark is famous for its flourishing blogging scene and pretty dope street style, so ever since I moved here I’ve been paying close attention to what people wear and what’s most representative of the local style. Of course combining a pair of New Balance with a dress is one of the most common things to see and in my attempts to blend in I did try that combination that says ‘in your face’ gender stereotypes. Pieces Turtleneck Dress (here)//River Island Black Pointed Heels (here)//Hollister Black Coat (here) // Textured Scarf Mango (here) // RayBan White Frame Shades (here) // Watch Daniel Wellington (here) But as you can clearly see, I’ve had enough trying to look like a Dane, and I’m back to my Black & Chic self. And anyway, I’m too short and dark for rocking skirts with Air Max, se here I’m walking the streets of Copenhagen in a new pair of high … Læs mere
#HyggeFriday I woke up with that overwhelming feeling that just begged me to get a break from life. I?ve spent the last month overthinking everything ? and actually trying to get in terms with the fact that my life has ?for real? turned around. But in the process of investing all of my energy in doing so, I?ve been lacking sufficient energy to engage in anything else. Hence, my lack of activity here and lack of being present when I?m not by myself. And wasn?t I the one who always says that the first step to experiencing ?happiness? is actually being ?present? at that very moment; letting your senses indulge in the aroma of your morning coffee, rich flavor of that freshly baked ?jule? (Christmas) cinnamon bun, and freshness of the autumn wind brushing against your cheeks. Earlier today I went for a stroll around the ?hygge? Lyngby, walking the autumn carpet … Læs mere
A Wink From Paradise: Polynesian Monoi Radiance Oil by The Body Shop I’ve been working at The Body Shop for more than 4 months now, and it took me around 120 days to figure out which products appeal to me the most (yep, yep, the indecisive me). On this ‘hygge’ Sunday, I’m sharing with you a beauty product that managed to immediately win me over: Polynesian Monoi Radiance Oil part of their Spa Of The World collection. The packaging - flawless and nothing like anything they’ve done before - and the content? A wink from Paradise. And while the design of the bottle is pretty amazing, it’s really the concept behind all of the Spa Of The World products that makes you wanna try them. The Body Shop’s experts have selected some of the most ancient and renowned beauty rituals from across the Globe, creating products that stand as an embodiment of those rituals. And even though I’m also a fan … Læs mere
