Nail Challenge 2

 Hey, everyone!
 It's time for the second color in the nail challenge! (if you haven't seen the first one, just click here and you'll know what I'm talking about!)
 So, number 2 is... ORANGE! YAY! In contrary to red, I love orange on me! I just love it!
 Here's a pic of my nails:


 I'm sorry the picture is not that good, but it is really neon. If I can take pictures in better lighting, I'll upload them later on this post!
 This polish is called Tech, from Impala which is a Brazilian brand. It's from the matte "neons" collections, so I basically put on a shiny top coat over it since I don't really like the matte neon vibe! I also added a little bow, which is just a sticker and that was basically it!

 Next color is... Yellow! So, we'll see how that goes!

I ❤ shoes!

 Hey, guys!
 I just got back from a day of finding out new shops, that I didn't know, in copenhagen.
 So, I've been looking for high heeled ankle booties with a huge platform, like this one from Jeffrey Campbell:


 But, the thing is that I wouldn't wear a lot, since in denmark you have to walk a lot, so it wouldn't be worth it paying 1500 dkk for something that I wouldn't get much use out of.
 So I went to this shoe shop inside the H&M in the walking street, the one near TopShop and Magasin. The shoe shop is called Riis Sko and I knew that they sold tons of different shoes like Creepers, military boots, Vans and tons of other cool things. So I wanted to check it out and see if I could find a Jeffrey Campbell bootie or a similar one. 
 So I found this boot that I feel like it's the same kind of idea as the one by Jeffrey Campbell, but a bit toned down and had a lower heel and the best thing it was only 450 dkk. Here's a pic:


 It is from the brand 67 sixtyseven, as I said before it was only 450 dkk on the price tag, but the whole building was having its anniversary of 50 years or something and I got 10% off, so it was 405 dkk.
 The bootie is super comfy and the platform is soooooo cute, it's my favorite part! haahahahahha

 Here's the link to the Riis Sko online shop, they are currently updating their own, but if it is working here's is the link.
 They have Dr Martens, Vagabond, Vans, Converse, Timberland and many more!
 Have you bought any cute shoes this days? Make sure to share in the comments!

August Favorites!

 Hey, everyone! So today I'm going to tell you what I've been loving this month. :)
 First things first, I have been obsessed with watches and bracelets and accessories! Here are a few pics of  some of the accessories that I've been wearing this past month:


Watch: Aldo; Skull bracelet: local shop; Spiky white bracelet: local shop in Brazil; Blue, yellow and pink bracelets: Accessorize; The other bracelets are from Aldo.
Neon scarf: Local shop in Brazil; Hair extension: topshop.
Bow ring: Morana(Brazil); Most of the bracelets, except the colorful one and the beige with pearl, are from local shops in Brazil; Colorful bracelets: Accessorize; Beige bracelet with pearls: Glitter(Denmark); Rings: H&M; Skull ring: Local shop in Brazil

 I have been wanting a watch for three months, but since I didn't know if I would really use it I bought a cheaper one, but I really like it even though I WILL buy my rose gold one! hahahahha!
 I usually use the watch with any of my bracelets! I got so used to using them on my left arm that even when I don't put on my watch, only the bracelets, I put them on my left arm! 
 I have also been obsessed with rings and obviously I still am a skull and spikes lover!

 Another thing that I have been using a lot this past month is this denim shirt. It's by zara and I love that shop, like LOVE! hahahaha! I usually like to feel "skater", so I use it opened and sleeves rolled up, with a t-shirt underneath, black jeggings and my Vans that I bought in brazil. Or I'll use these really long leggings that I have and my wedge sneakers. Here's a pic of the denim shirt from the Zara online shop. It's now only 80 dkk, which is REEEEALLY cheap!                                     



  Now since I already mentioned two of the other things that I have been loving, I'll show some pics!


Wedge sneaker from Regina Rios(Brazil)
Vans from Artwalk(Brazil)

 Both of them I bought in Brazil. The wedge sneaker is surprisingly comfy and amps up an outfit, but still makes it casual. Now, the Vans are simply my babies. They have this really dark grey pattern and the sole is PINK! I just love them!


 Now the one thing that I will always be drawn into are nail polishes (dirty little secret: I have around 200 nail polishes! They are in a big box, so I think that I might have even more nail polish then a professional! hahahahaha) Now, neons have been in and out all the time, but this time it's different. I have been obsessed with them, so when I went to Brazil, I obviously bought tons of them and a couple more different colors.
 But here are the neon polishes:

First 5: Pink is called Shock, the green is Spirit, then there's Smiles, Fluors and Tech.
Now, the last 2 are crackle polishes and I love them obviously!

 I haven't tried all of them yet, but the crackles are amazing. I really love Ellen Gold's formula it's the best of the one that I've tried.
 My favorite so far is the neon green. It's like a radioactive color, it is amazing. Now, Shock, Spirit, Fluors and Tech all have matte finish, so I usually put on an ultra shine top coat that I have from Colorama or you can put any top coat or maybe leave it matte.

 Up next are two things that are somehow related. They are Taylor Swift related, obviously. Here are the pics:









 Now, the wonderstruck perfume just came to Denmark and believe I would've known before if it came or not. I've been wanting to try it since last year! I did look at free shops but couldn't find it. It got to the UK a long time ago, but denmark is slow! hahahahaha
 According to sephora it has notes of Freesia, Green Tea, Apple blossom, raspberry and dewberry and the style is SPARKLING, BLUSHING, ENCHANTED! ahahahhaha
 I simply love this perfume it has the most amazing smell right after Loverdose by diesel!

 The next Taylor Swift thing that I've been loving is her new single: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. This song got stuck in my head from the first time that I listened to it. The music video came out a couple of days ago and it's pretty cool...
 Are any of you guys excited for Taylor's new album RED!? I know I am! :D

 Let me know what you've been loving this past month!

Nail challenge?

 Hey, everyone!
 So, to start off the blog I'll share with you this new thing that I'm doing, it's the 31 nails challenge. That means that for the next 31 times that you paint your nails your supposed to follow a list.
Here's the challenge:


 So, the first color is RED! I'm personally not a big fan of red nail polish, but it's kind of worth it...
 Here's the color that I painted:


 I painted my nails with this kind of burgundy red. I actually like it, I feel like it's the only red that I can actually see myself using. It's from a brand called Colorama (bought it in Brazil), they used to make nail polishes with Maybelline a long time ago in Brazil and they still do in Denmark, but they probably don't have this color. Translating the name is Twilight, which kind of fits if you think on the vampire side of the word! I really like this line from Colorama, the formula is really thick so you can just do one coat and you're good to go (and it dries pretty fast too)!

 The one not so cool thing about this blog is that most of my nail polishes are from Brazil, since they have such awesome formula and are waaaaaay cheaper and work just the same as O.P.I. or any other nail polish brand.

 So, yeah! Make sure to come back soon. The next item from the list is... ORANGE! YAY!
 And you guys are welcome to do the challenge too!
