Ikea Scented Candles

Hi!

During the weekend I went to Ikea.
Ikea is some place where my family and I go to several times. Sometimes twice a day. My bedroom furniture is almost everything from there so I think you already understood that Ikea is very popular in my life.
So, I went to the nearest department and bought a pack of 3 candles among other items.

I love to light a candle and its scent to spare around my bedroom. I alway have one on. These Tindra Ljuv as they called it, are perfect. Their scent is sweet without being too much.

The first from the left smells like my mother's chocolate brownies. The middle one smells like caramel and the white smells like cinnamon, in case you were wondering.
The package has 3 images of deserts above each one representing its smell. The darker brown as a slice of chocolate cake. The second has a square of pudding with caramel sauce. The last has some cookies. I think they all represent pretty well each scent.

The first I used which is on right now was the white. When on the scent is not so concentrated as before, though.

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

Yes, it is. I know in 4 four days is Christmas eve but even if we didn't have calendars we would know just by the spirit. If you look carefully when you're outside, you'll see people with theirs hand full of presents. The bakeries are full with characteristic food for this time. At night street are decorated with Christmas lights. It's cold. I don't know, but you can feel it in the air.

Yesterday, my friends and I went to one of the nearest shopping centers and did some Christmas shopping. We bought some things each one but nothing too fancy or expensive. Although was fun, fun, fun!

Today I did all my Christmas list. Before anything, this was the first year of my life that just a few days for Christmas I hadn't any present. Unbelievable.
My favourite present I bought today has to be Hugo Boss' Just Different perfume. Jared Leto is face of the fragrance so... but as a win, win it smells really good. Really! I'm going to steal the bottle from my dad many times I guess... haha

Parfois Studded Cross Body Bag

Heya!

Yesterday I said I bought something. I said nothing about what it was. But I should have because I wrote "stay tuned if you're at least a bit curious". I should've said girly. Because it's a girl object as you can see by the title and image.

Puss In Boots

Hey!

After what was said yesterday, today could not have been better example of how I want to spend these holidays.

Blog TAG: Things I Want To Do Before I Die

Hi!

I don't know if there's a TAG for this or not but I saw a blogger do a list with the things she wanted to do before she died so I said to myself "why not do the same?!"
But for cut me short I made a limit of 10 so I didn't end up making an endless list.

• I want to be happy.

• I want to found the love of my live.

• I want to have a penthouse somewhere amazing.

• I want to travel all over the globe.

• I want to live in London.

• I want to go shopping in New York.

• I want to write a book.

• I want to go to a fashion show.

• I want to design a clothing line.

• I want to visit Coco Chanel's home.

Here it is. I think they all are the normal "dreams" (if you want to call it that) every girl has.

Thus, if you have a any kind blog, I TAG you. If this is not a TAG, let's make it one. Do a list of 10 thing you want to do/have/buy/go/whatever before you die then post your link in the comments.

This will be fun ;)

Think carefully, though, I'm regretting some of the things I wrote already.

Fashion's Night Out 2011

Hello!

On this upcoming Wednesday is Fashion's Night Out.

I went last year and was so much fun! 

I really want to go again...

One of my friends asked me if I was coming and I said to her I didn't know because my school starts on the exact same day - September 8.

God! Lucky much?! 

What were the odds?! 

I really want to go! Maybe I can go if I don't get home too late. But then again there's so much to see and enjoy... I don't know if I can do that...

Well, I promise I'll try.

Keep your fingers crossed for me, please ;)

Stafanel T-Shirt

Hey!

Today was Sunday, I had nothing to do and went shopping.
I passed by Stefanel and bought this t-shirt:

OMG!!! It's Daria Werbowy!!! Sorry, I love her.

This is Stefanel Spring Summer collection, this ads are everywhere; in magazines, in the streets and when I saw this shirt I loved it for the first second. It's black, kind of lacy and casual (and Daria wore it, so was probably 10% on that too - JK)

It costed me 138€, therefore something around £121 and $196.
I loved everything when I was in there, this collection is adorable, I think is one of the bests, but I already had spent to much money on other things so I stayed with my "first love" ;)

I Shopped 'Til I dropped

Hey!

I had an amazing day. School went well and then all day shopping! Yey!

Daria Werbowy for Chanel.

I mainly went to Schlecker, Lush, M.A.C., H&M, Levi's, Sephora, Starbucks and a hand full of names of another thousand stores.

First stop Schlecker. I bought some hair stuff, nothing special.
Second stop Lush. I got Trichomania, Dragoons Egg and a Lip Dip lip srub.
Third stop M.A.C. I thought it would have the perfect travel case for my brushes and guess what, I was right. I love it!
Fourth stop H&M. I needed a pair of jeans and found some really comfy in there.
Fifth stop Levi's. I bought a denim jacket. So cute!
Sixth stop. Sephora. Brushes cleanser.
Seventh stop Starbucks. Caramel macchiato, obviously. My favourite!

What an awesome way to finish the week, don't you think?!

I Shop -> I Help

Heya!

Today I went shopping with my mom. We went to Zara, Pepe Jeans London, Pull & Bear, Levi's, Springfield, Sephora, Swatch and Mango, between others. I bought some stuff, yeah, ok, some really cool stuff, but what I am most exited about is...

Scarlett Johansson's bag for Mango to help Haiti.

I'm not a lover of her or Mango, but I went there and found this. It was a limited edition I even thought it was out of stock, but no.

It has a message that was written and signed by her; "Supporting the people of Haiti", I haven't found it yet, btw. About the collaboration with Mango and Oxfam International she said: “I’m thrilled to be collaborating with Mango to benefit Oxfam’s Haiti Earthquake Response Fund. By purchasing this bag, which I specially designed, you will be helping to provide life saving assistance like clean water to the people of Haiti.”

It's good to know when you're buying something you're helping someone at the same time. Mostly because the main direction for the money is drinkable water which is awesome!
I know it's not the prettiest purse ever but just because what she "makes", she is!

The Saints Are Coming!

Hi!
How was your enter in 2011?
Mine was so much fun! I never thought I could laugh that loud. ahah

To start this post I'm going to explain that I'm a girl and like the MOST of the girls I like to shop. I like going to the mall and buy clothes or anything to decorate my bedroom, I don't like exclusively to buy clothes. But I AM NOT a shopaholic!

About 1 month ago, I discover a new brand that I'm loving all their clothing line! It's called AllSaints Spitafields.

(The first product I loved was the Damisi Boots in black. OMG! I just looovee them! They seem so rock and urban. (picture above in brown)

The brand is from the United Kingdom, so it has a kind of urban/edgy/rock/chic style. They have lots of black, I think it's the main color, but obviously they have brown, white, grey, etc. It's very casual, very "dress-down". In the morning you can wear something just to go buy oranges and in the evening add some accessories and it turns more "dressy" or even chic.

Like I said I'm in love with some of their products, I even download the app for iPhone and iPad, and now I can see their collection anywhere anytime. It's so cool!.

It's amazing when a brand makes clothes with quality and not that expensive. Yes, it's a little bit expensive but it's expensive in an affordable way. In my point of view, it's like Levi's. It's expensive but you can buy a pair of jeans or a t-shirt or whatever once in a while, right? I think AllSaints it's almost or exactly the same.
And they used real leather in anything that is in the "leather" section in the website. It's awesome, because I go to multiple stores and find a really nice jacket and when I touch it, yes it's soft and smooth, but it's not real leather, and sometimes it's expensive for false leather.


But the only problem is that I don't have a store in my country. How awful is that?!
When I went to "store locator" in the site and I saw that I almost cried! (Naa, not really)
I'm thinking to go to the nearest store tomorrow, but it's miles away from where I live, though.
In the last of the chances I'll have to buy it online, but I think it'll take months or even years to arrive in my house. ahah

I'll certainly find a method to have something from AllSaints.

And now that I talked too much about clothes, I'm off to go.
