Outfit of the Day

And the other skirt that came in the same package as the last one! This one is longer and I might need to add a slit because it's quite tight at the hem. I put it on just to go to the grocery store to get us something for breakfast, yay for excuses to wear pretty stuff ;P

Top - H&M

Skirt - Iron Fist

Tights - Cubus

Boots - New Rock

I'm facing a new problem due to my pole dancing hobby, my shirts are getting too snug at the sleeves! This one has tiny cap sleeves that now want to ride up. I guess I'll have to do some more shopping soon!

Iron Fist Skirt

I went a bit crazy a few weeks ago and ordered no less than three Iron Fist skirts! Not to mention the one I bought off a Facebook flea market that ended up being a tiny bit too big, so I ordered it in a smaller size ;P But a package with two skirts arrived on Friday and I wanted to wear one of them right away. I don't usually wear pink, but this one was just too cute and scary to pass!

It's Grave dancer mini skirt, it has a tooth pattern on the front and a slice of brains in the back ;P I like high-waisted skirts so this cut was much to my liking. My other half and I went out to have a few glasses of wine at a friend's DJ event, it was a great night. Today I'm doing crafts and going to have dinner at the Indian restaurant later.

Some Velvet Morning

Just a few face pics from the weekend. The light was so lovely, cool and clear. I've been quite busy with work and studies lately, I'm working on the plan for my thesis and trying to handle a few last courses. After an exam tomorrow I only have two more courses to go, plus the two I'm working on right now.

Also my plans for a kitten have progressed! My other half and I went to see some oriental kittens a while back and I was totally in love with one, but he wasn't so fond of the breed that he would want another one. I would of course have wanted the cute little kitten, but it's a big commitment, so we went looking for another breed that would suit us better. The other half wants a traditional looking cat and I'm into the sleek orientals and Siamese, and the new cat should be very active so our current oriental gang wouldn't piss it off ;P My friend Nina suggested a Bengal cat, and it seemed like a perfect choice!

Exotic looking spots, very highly active, and doesn't have a very long or short nose, looks like a cat like my other half would say ;) Coincidentally, a few weeks into the plan of looking for a suitable Bengal kitten, a friend of ours who works for a pet rescue organization sent us a message that they have a few Bengals that had just come in. Seems like a sign from a higher force, right? So now we have six month old rescue Bengal reserved and will get to know the cat better once it has settled in the foster home it now lives in. I'm hoping this is the kitty for us! We are already picking names ;P

So that's my life nowadays, cats, work and studies! My other half set up the new hard drive he got me for Christmas and my comp now powers up in just a few seconds, perfect for impatient/busy people like me who tend to close down the machine and only then remember there was something more to do. I also got my mom's old iPad as a present, so now I'm playing HayDay like there's no tomorrow ;P I'd like attend dance lessons more often, but they don't agree with my schedule so I've promised myself more dancing once the studies are done. I hate studying and working full time at the same time, it's so stressful! But that's why I've decided to be done with it, finally. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll graduate at the latest next year's spring, or maybe this year's Christmas if I'm really industrious.

PS. I have no idea why my hair looks like it has a huge tangle in it, it didn't! And it just doesn't want to keep the green shade, it washes off in a few washes and leaves only blue behind.

Super Easy Valentine's Look

Shiro Cosmetics Day of Reckoning - dark metallic burgundy
Antoinette's Revolution Pink Rose - medium pink
Sugarpill Tako - matte white

A very easy Valentine's look! I used a dark burgundy for the crease, but a plum purple works also. Pink on the lid makes it sweet. Especially if you have green eyes, these shades will make your eyes really shine. I used matte white on the tearduct and brow bone to brighten the shades and make my eyes look more open.

Ganondorf Look

Here's Ganondorf eyeshadow by Shiro Cosmetics! Ilona put it in the envelope with my nailpolishes as a surprise and it's just lovely! Dark reddish tones really make my eye colour pop, don't you think?

Winter!

This is my winter gear! My other half and I went for a walk and did some shopping yesterday. It was snowing but luckily not very cold. The snow is so pretty when it's still white!

Jacket - Juunappa

Jeans - Bik Bok

Boots - Unif

Bag - H&M

Gloves - My grandma's old ones

Femme Fatale Nightsong Grotto Review

The lovely Ilona from Eyeshadow and Flame arranged an order to Norway Nails, so I piggybacked along to get a few Femme Fatale nail polishes I had been wanting for some time. This is Nightsong Grotto on top of GinaTricot Sea Bug. Sea Bug is a shimmery sea green and a perfect base for the glitter in Nightsong Grotto!

Nighsong Grotto makes me nostalgic, when I started playing World of Warcraft back in 2007 or 2006 I played with a night elf, and the colours in the polish are the same as in the night elf starting area.

The consistency is nice, here I'm wearing two coats over two coats of the green base. The largest round particles wand to rise up from the nail surface because my nails are quite curved, so the next time I use this polish I might pick those off from the nails. The smaller glitter settles well and a thick coat of clear topcoat makes the surface smooth.

The polish is just as I wanted: super sparkly, glitter does not curl, great colours that go well together and a pretty bottle. I'm happy! Also Norway Nails delivered fast and they have very cheap flat rate shipping, it was only a little under six euros. They have a great selection and shipped fast, I might do another order some day!
