ASOS Dress in Tea Party Print

ASOS

When I saw this dress I knew that there was no way in hell I would NOT get it, since it was the first dress in a long time that really won me over! Since the process of ordering it caused me quite some hassle (oh, long story...) I really hope it will fit me :)
Update will follow!

Meet My Baby Boy


Even though I already have a dog, I could never let go of the idea of having a second puppy.. Well, it is finally happening! In 5 weeks my hubby and I will pick up this cute furball (french bulldog!) and welcome him into our little family! He makes my heart melt everytime I look at him... I'm pretty sure that this little boy will make few more appearances on this blog in the near future ;)

This is the perfect outfit for a hot summer-day in the garden :) the flowy skirt was a real bargain (10 bucks!) and I purchased the top in Berlin in February during -10°degrees. Finally, 5 months later I got to wear it :)
Only one week left till my holiday starts and I'm off to Prague! What are your holiday plans?

What I wore:
Skirt: h&m
Top: urban outfitters
Sunnies: h&m

LUSH - emotional brilliance



Im sure that many of you have heard about the rumors of LUSH launching a new make-up line.
Last week I had the honor to get a sneak peek on the upcoming collection and I am super excited to share this completely new approach and concept by LUSH with you guys!

The basic idea is that our psychological state usually influences our make-up decisions and not simply our clothes or accessories. But how do we determine which color fits our current mood ? To begin with, simply turn the color wheel (on their website or the iphone app) and let it choose the right colors for you - in other words; choose the 3 colors that pop into your eyes, since they represent your current mood and psychological need. The first color symbolizes your strength or weakness, the second color represents your subconscious need, while the third color is your talent and what you will need to achieve your subconscious need.
Did I confuse you? Trust me, it's super easy and a very fun way to start your day :)

Further infos:
- the Emotional Brilliance range consists of lipsticks, eyeliners and eyeshadows
-  30 shades
- vegan
- highly pigmented
 
 

This was no doubt a fun experience (huge thanks to the folks at LUSH!) and check out the collection when it launches worldwide July 21st!
