A little splurge

Image
Sadly I don't have much time to go shopping. But during the last month I've been so lucky to have a couple of afternoons to go around shops as I like, and that's what happened.   from: Pimkie     First thing I got, is this dress from Pimkie. I immediately fell in love with it because of the collar (I love collars so much). In fact the dress is really plain, just black, the skirt is so wide, but your eye is captured by the myriad of rhinestones and pearls on the white collar. I wear it with black tights and black ankle boots, such as my beloved Blundstone <3. My dad says that I look like Wednesday Addams but I don't care, I actually like her, she's a kick ass character! =)   from: Zara     Then, at Zara's I got this amazing shirt, it's pretty similar to the dress, I know (except for the glittery collar) but I just couldn't resist it. I think it's super elegant in it's semplicity. I normally wear it with skinny colour

Fifty Shades of Grey

I went to the cinema about a couple of weeks ago. Some friends of mine wanted to see "Fifty Shades of Grey", they were so excited about it because they read the book, so I decided to join them and see what was all this rave about. I haven't read the book, but more or less I knew the story of Christian and Anastasia and honestly.......I expected more. The film was pretty featureless. Jamie Dornan was very sexy indeed, but I found the character of Christian so oppressive and too much of a stalker for my taste, they're not even a couple and he seems to appear everywhere she goes. While Anastasia is so boring (I'm not talking about the actress, I'm talking about the character of Anastasia). I think the story has nothing original or special: boy meets girl, he's too hot for her but he wants her anyway, she drools over him whenever she sees him and since she's very clumsy we participate to some little funny situations, they kiss, they decide to be friends

Nail art

I started doing nail art four years ago by chance (although I think that everything happens for a reason, sometimes you just don't know what's that reason ), I remember I was bored surfing the internet until I stumbled on some very cute pictures of nails on Facebook. I got more and more excited, so I decided to go and buy what I needed: brushes and a dotter. These are some of my creations:     I always do nail arts that are easy to recreate, so nothing too difficult; mainly because I'm not good at drawing so I just can't do too elaborate designs. I try to reproduce what I see on photos I find on the net, and I don't use professional tools or nail polishes, just the ones you find in beauty stores.     The time I spend on a nail art varies a lot on how much complicated it is, and on how quick nail polishes dry. Sometimes you just need a lot of patience! I know I don't do surprising things but I'm pretty proud of myself, I h
