I'm Coming Home

"I’m coming home
Tell the world

I’m coming home
Let the rain wash away

All the pain of yesterday

I know my kingdom awaits
And they’ve forgiven my mistakes"

Oh yes

It's Christmas Soon

I'm awake. I haven't slept. At all. I still have 700 words to write. When they are done I've actually written 6000 words, made a film and done a presentation in two weeks. And that was all done while having lectures and seminars at the same time. I'm pretty proud.

And very tired.

Vikings Or Vampires

Okay, okay vamps.. I get it. You're not out of the picture just yet.

Wonderland

I love this place. The handsome boys open the doors for me. Even if they're going through and I'm 10 feet away - they stop, hold the door, wait for me to get there, let me go through and then go through themselves. I feel like a princess. Spoiled. I'm in love.

A Sleeping City

And I Took A Quiz

"What animal represents your spirit?

- Tiger
You are the tiger personality/spirit. Wow. Tigers are extremely adaptable and strong personalities. They don't just cause sensations: they make waves. When people see a tiger, they pay attention: that applies to both the animal and you. Tiger spirits are normally naturally born leaders, people that everyone looks to with no particular reason why, just because they are that type of person. You can make ties with people but for the most part, like the tiger, you like your alone time, where you can think and plan. You are very smart and very capable and most people generally don't mess with you, though everyone wants ot BE you. You are fierce when protecting the people close to you which makes you an awesome friend, but sometimes a slightly intimidating/controlling and jealous lover. Stay away from Eagles and other Tigers. Your best matches tend to be Horses or Foxes."

University

I'm starting uni in a month. I'm crazy excited.

I Wonder Why

Why do I always have to like the expensive clothes? ..

It's not fun not being able to afford them as a student.

Photos

I promised to upload a couple of photos with my newly made nail design back in May but my camera doesn't have any battery and I'm too bored to charge it before rly necessary haha. But I will upload the photos soon. Promise. (:

I'm sitting and watching the World Cup games. Denmark - Netherlands. Kind of hope the Danes win but it seems pretty even. Fun to watch. We'll have to see.

While waiting for the game to begin again (there's a break now) I thought I'd upload some photos I've taken from my phone the last couple of months. These photos go back as far as November, I believe. I have a lot of photos of food or drinks I've had in different places or countries. Thought I'd show you and make you very jealous haha. Take a look.

Fairy Tale

Thirty-fucking-seven

I counted my nailpolishes yesterday. I believe I have thirty-fucking-seven. :D Some of my new naildesigns will be up during the week. Bwhoooya.

Tonight

I'll lay awake

and watch the stars as they collide ..

Don't Follow The Crowd

Nicholas Hoult

Just returned from watching "Clash of the Titans". I just realised how much I enjoy the little acting Nicholas Hoult has done. Cute, cute boy. Not bad at all.. Ehehehe. Oh yeees.. Hello you! :)

Silver And Black Nail Design

'Ello everyone. I painted my nails silverblue with black stripes last week, inspired from the previous tiger look, and thought I'd show you. I thought it was simple and not too flashy. There isn't much to say about it so I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

DO THE DON'TS

Nail Design II

New nail polish and nail design, ehehe.

Yesterday I found this orange colour and thought I'd do a tigerrr design with it. It worked pretty well I believe. My brother isn't a big fan, hahah, but I love it just as much as my other nail animal prints.

OH DEAR ENGLAND,

I LOVE YOU

Nail Design

Some of you may know that I have a big weakness when it comes to nailpolish. I think I might have reached owning 30 nailpolishes this weekend. I've tried combining different colours and ended up falling in love with nail designs and art. So far I've tried a rainbow (each nail a different rainbow colour), music with notes on white nails, leopard and paw print themes. The last two are definitely my favourite so far. I'll probably try an Easter theme next month. Any other ideas? Oh well anyway.. I thought I'd post the leopard and paw print motives.

I'd work for the police

just so I could ride one of their awesome motorcycles.

Eclipse

Hah. The new trailer for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse sucks big time. I hope the film isn't as dark, brooding, no-action-ish and with that small amount of contrast in it. The action seems limited (althought there is so much in the book), the vampires seem paler and less dangerous and Bella seems already dead. How can people tell she isn't a vampire with that look? I mean come ooon.. I feel like rolling my eyes and showing the producers and David Slade how a proper Eclipse trailer is made.

Check out the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2HIda5wSVU

82nd Academy Awards

After watching the 82nd Academy Awards all night I've got to admit that I am very much in the mood for glamour, parties and fun. Just as a small blog post I thought I'd post my favourite dresses from the red carpet yesterday.

Below you can see Penélope Cruz, Miley Cyrus, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Kristen Stewart. I should just say that if I post something it's because I like the dress and not necessarily the actress. I'm for instance not a huge fan of Miley Cyrus (mildly put) but I liked her creme-golden outfit. Penélope Cruz's is adorable and the motion in the dress is wonderful. Miley's is pretty too, but I liked the lower part more than the upper. It somehow makes her look way too skinny and unnatural. Maggie Gyllenhaal explained that her dress reminded her of spring. I agree, the colours are beautiful. My absolute favourite is probably Kristen Stewart's. That look can't be described in words, it's perfection.

Oh, I love the Oscars. ♥

To Have

Yes, I do want a heart. The type that pumps blood through my veins. One that fills every inch of me with perfection. Pure magic would be a total bliss. A flawless state of mind. Fill my body with my unidentified craving passion.

"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."

Helloooo white fashion

I thought instead of just posting new stuff when I fall in love with something (and everyone knows that falling in love, even when it comes to fashion, doesn't happen very often) I should also show you guys what I tend to like and dislike in general. So from now on I don't have to love something to post it here, haha.

I'll therefore show you guys some dresses and shoes I found when shopping online at BCBG and Guess. Since white (and black/white) is the colour this year I have found tons of charming and elegant cocktail dresses in white or combined with another colour. I have actually begun really liking the idea of a white summer dress for 2010. Take a look :)

All three dresses are from BCBG Maxazria. They can be bought for $328/€258, $278/€218 and $358/€281.

I also found these two looovely bags while shopping online:

Both shoulder bags are from Monsoon Accessorize. The first is called "Ellen Frame Bag" and costs $138/€108, while the second is called "Felix Flower Turnlock Cross Body Bag" and costs $46/€36. I've got to admit that I love the idea of the rose growing out of the bag (and I have a thing for roses at the moment). At the same time I'd probably use the blue shoulder bag more as it's more practical and the price is a lot better. I might actually go buy it.. soon. A student has got to invest in the correct things, right?

I like the idea that white is the new black. It's so much lighter (although I'm a big fan of black style), summer'y and .. I'd say free spirited but I don't believe clothes can be free spirited, haha.
If you're not a huge fan of white take a look at the colour trends we will have in 2010 in general: http://www.fashionising.com/trends/b--Interfileres-Colour-Trends-SpringSummer-2010-1976.html. They might give you some inspiration. Noone says it has to be pure white (though I would recommend staying away from the "young shoot" and "Indigo" colour).

Mix it up, have fun with the trendy colours. I'll be looking forward to seeing a lot of white, nuances of red, soft and refined pinks, mauves and neutrals in full evolution.

My Blog Seems To Concentrate On Loves

I've got to admit it.. I love nailpolish. This is my "small" collection.

Could It Be..

I might have shot Cupid. He was aiming at me..

What do you expect me to do: Just stand there and smile? Don't think so.

Another Love Of Mine

I have got to admit.. I found one more love. I wonder if this proves that people don't only have one love. I guess not, right? Maybe somebody should tell me clothes and shoes aren't people. Perhaps the female brain is separated in two: a part for loving items and fashion and a part for loving friends, family and "the one".

All I know is that this wonderful shoe, seen in the picture above, is the most magnificent shoe from Karen Millen I have ever seen. And I've seen quite a few. I would probably never wear it but even the idea of not owning it hurts. It can be found in any Karen Millen shop or on their website (http://www.karenmillen.com/search?keywords=leopard), style code FJ039. I wish I had £150, €210 or $150.

Karen Millen has also used this enchanting leopard pattern to launch these new items:

I must admit that these look pretty good too. They are all 100% leather. The first is a cute purse (style code GJ071). I wouldn't mind adding one of those to my collection haha. The price is £60, €85 or $108.

Next up is Karen Millen's belt (style code IJ022). I'm not sure how comfortable that chain belt is to wear and I doubt it's a huge hit. Would be fun to be proven wrong though. The price is approximately the same as the purse's.

The third item is a "leopard print faux pony clutch bag with detachable chain" (style code GJ108). I have got to admit one thing here.. I wouldn't buy it. It seems the size of the clutch is wrong, way too square, and although the tassel detailing is in at the moment it comes across exceptionally big compared to the small bag. Furthermore, the designer added the chain, resulting in an all in all messy and too confusing accessory. As you can hear I'm not a big fan. Keep it simple and classy, Mrs. Millen. I'm sure some people love it. Otherwise they wouldn't have produced it. The price for the clutch bag is £120, €170 or $200.

The next item is probably my favourite apart from the first shoe (style code GJo37). And not surprisingly it's also the most expensive. It's a "leopard print faux pony bag with chain handle and patent tassel trims and new custom made branded metalwork". I could stare at it all day.. Oh, well. There's not so much to say except that I love it. It is simple, lovely details, great pattern (I do have a soft spot for animal prints as I believe you guessed), classy but still kind of tough with the chain handle and not too big. This is how I define a part accessory. You can find it on the website for £165, €240, $304.

Last up is the other version of the leopard shoe (style code FJ026). The heel height is approximately 11.5cm (the first one was 11cm). I have to admit that Karen Millen did a good job with this shoe too. It's elegant and fits the current "gladiator meets high heels" fashion. It's a bit cheaper than the first shoe I showed you but I bet it would go perfectly with a sexy black / white / grey / brown / blue-coloured dress or outfit. This too can be found in any Karen Millen shop or on their website for the price of £135, €185 or $225.

The pattern is perfection, the material is soft and anyone who can afford any of the items above should consider adding these to their wardrobe, shoe, accessory or bag collection. All in all it's a killer.
