Box full of luxury

Stella was doing a giveaway the other day and I won! Apparently I'm devoted (what can I say?I am) and I was the first one to send an email to participate! Haaappiness! The package arrived in 2 days.
I can simply describe it as a box of luxury and I feel so spoiled, since I'm still a bit concerned about spending money in expensive creams for my body. I settle with exp make up so far. So that was definitely a great chance to make my picks!

Everything is so special, starting with the packaging. She put lots of effort and it turned out so cute, with little caramels around ! Even the stamp was pink and stylish lol!






Needless to say I love them all! And Stella, you put so much product in everything, thank you so much!!
The package contains
Laura Mercier Souffle Body Cream
Bobbi Brown Tanning/Glowing Lotion
MAC Studio Finish Face Powder in Gold
and MAC pigment in Old Gold (which was spilt all over but I managed to save it)!!



Laura Mercier.... I love you! This is to eat! It smells exactly like my favourite milk caramels we call them , which is actually very similar to fudge (Καραμέλες Γάλακτος ). Very moisturizing but with that smell , who really cares??!




You can use the Mac Powder for highliting, for a nice glow from head to toe, wherever you want, it's simple amazing!



Like Stella suggested, I used this pigmet with wet brush and I'm telling you it's like pure gold!



I still want to try the Bobbi Brown Glowing Lotion but I ll wait till when I start wearing shorts to make my legs look sexy!

Everythin else she suggest, I'll make sure I go try them , which is
Kiehl's Body Cream
Get Fresh body spray in Grapefruit
and Urban Decay Body Powder that smells Honey!

Thank you once more!! ^_^

Experience shopping in a different way...

I have a new addiction. It's called : go-to-as-many-shops-and-try-everything-you-want, especially-things you'd-have-never-picked, take-photos-and-leave-without-buying-anything! It's crazy! And fun. And by the end of the day when you go home, it feels like you bought all of them!
The feeling goes away after a couple days, but then you can go again!

It really was a nice day actually. We went shopping and I only took 10 euros with me. Guess what. I spent 10 euros. Talk about shopping addiction! I tried all these clothes, I found some amazing pieces that I might consider buying later. I gave a chance to things I would have necer tried and turned out amazing.

(If you notice the shops in the same order as the searching for shoes route, it's because this is how the street goes and I always take the same way, door by door.I always go to the same stores not only because I love their style, but where else can you look at whatever you want without distractions from annoying shop assistants? )

Pull&Bear

I am buying a jumpsuit this summer! No question about that!


Berska

This is how I fell in love with those shoes.Because this is my signature look all summer, jean shorts, t-shirt, pretty shoes. Love the combination of colours!


My sister actually bought these jeans, so I can "steal" them anytime, hehe.


Which one would you choose?



H&M

Very unflattering for short, non skinny people like me! Nice print though.



I was so happy with this outfit! I was in the store, I looked at those jeans, laughed with my sister saying "Pink trousers??Hahaha..." and it was one of the pleasant surprises I was talking about.
It's so cute, I totally look like I'm about 14 with these but it reminded me of when I was 10 and I was actually wearing pink, blue, green, yellow trousers!

Very Kim K. :P And I like the pockets, you can rest your hands. I couldn't decide which pic to post so I put both!
Btw, shops are full of straples dresses.



Sister's outfit! How cute is that?



Break for some ice-cream from Fregio and here we go again! It's the tiny size cause we were broke!
