Wishlist #1 - Topshop

So I have seen other bloggers making wishlists, and I get really inspired by them, to think of new things to wish for and buy. So I thought I would try making one. But the first thing I wish for is a photo editing program, I had PhotoShop before, but I lost it, so I'm thinking about getting it again. But wanted to ask if anyone know of a free program like PhotoShop for Macs. Please tell me if you do :)

Moving along with my wishes (clickable pictures)

I really like these dresses, so cute and feminine, but with and edge. And I am really falling in love with that mustard yellow color. Like the shirt from Primark. I need some dresses I can work in, so not anything too short and not to low cut. I don't really wear low cuts dresses or shirts, so I wouldn't go after dresses like that anyway. But these two are really cute, and with some tights under I could wear them to work.

I am in big need of knitwear for the winter, I know I know, I'm thinking ahead, but I just don't want to end up like last year and not even have a winter jacket with the snowstorms hits us. Last year I bought this really big and really warm winter jacket, and I think I will use it again this year, even though I would prefer a new one, who wouldn't?

I need a bag, and this is actually something I don't have and just want a new one of. The bags I have is either small bag that can only contain my cell phone and wallet and bus card and some gum. Not anything else. Or I have big backpack, from when I went to school and had to carry around a library on my back. So yes I actually NEED a bag. And I want one which and contain more than just the obvious, like wallet, cell phone, bus card and gum. I would love to have a bag where I could be that healthy girl carrying around a bottle of water and a book or an organizer.

I have these really cute oxfords from Aldo, but beside that I really only have sneakers or ballet flats. So when the fall is really coming I need something to wear that still looks classic and chic. These would be wonderful, or the kind that looks like riding boots.

I am really liking the idea of cute big rings so spice up the look, also with necklaces, but I don't really have any rings, because I have had a job where I wasn't aloud to wear jewelery, only wedding rings, and I'm not married. So I really like to buy rings with different colored stones so I can match them with my clothes and accessories.

And by the way, all this was found on Topshops website, which you will find out if you click the pictures as well.

Knockout Kitchens #1

So I really like kitchens, the problem is that I'm not a great cook. But I really want to get better, and I can make some really good chocolate cakes and other kind of cakes. But when it comes to food, well I pretty much suck.
I finally learn how to make an OK lasagna, and mashed potatoes is something I can too. But something basic like gravy ... no not really, I have tried twice and it tasted really weird and funny. So I still have a lot of practice to do.

But I would not mind being in one of these kitchen and cooking all day.

FOTD - Shimmery Neutrals

I don't know how well this is going to work out. I think I have to practice a bit more with the self face portraits. But here is my first Face of the Day.

Normally I wear neutrals, so this could also be called my daily routine, but I like to change it a bit up some days.


I'm sorry about my skin condition, I hope it will get better soon.

Foundation: Collection2000 (The one I bought in London)
Powder: Some Clinique powder, I don't know the exact name
Blush: Smashbox Soft Lights in Soft Prism
Eyebrows: Clarins Pro Palette Eyebrow Kit (Not worth the money)
Eyeprimer: Mac Paint Pot in Painterly
Eyeshadows: Two colors from my 88 palette
Mascara: Clinique High Impact

Outstanding Offices #1

I have something for offices. And when I get a house and get all grown up, I really want an office at home, or even better a library. I love books and have quit a bit now, but I really want more and more and more.

Oh well on with the pictures.
