AmsterDAMN

I wish I could greet you from Amsterdam but I'm sadly already back to Slovenia. I had such a great time. I wandered around, did a collaborational shooting with a South African musician and photographer in Amsterdam, Bas Raad, hung up with a fashion blogger Milena from BraidsAndEyeliner and did a bit of shopping for my prom next month (I discovered a lot of small vintage galleries and shops, loved them!). I really enjoy travelling alone, that's the best thing one can do to experience something new. I met a bunch of new cool people. I'm looking forward to returning to this amazing city, hopefully soon.

I'm impressed by the architecture, I took hundreds of photos.

It was unexpectedly cold. I wanted to wear socks 'n' sandals but I ended up in warm socks and boots because it was around 5°C and it rained a bit. My hair was a mess because of the constant strong wind. Such a pussy to rant about that. Well, that was my biggest problem. #luckyme

Felt like wearing a monochrome outfit, it's never a bad idea. But I wouldn't be me without something flashy like a blue bag or red eyelids.

Makeup:

Parisax foundation in Vanilla (buy here)

Kryolan Dermacolor concealers for contour & highlight

Parisax black cake liner for eyebrows (buy here)

Kryolan deep red eyeshadow in RB32 (I really recommend wearing red eye shadows for all blue/green-eyed queens)

Parisax eyeshadow Terre de Sienne for blending (buy here)

Essene Pen liner

Essence I <3 Extreme mascaraEssence Soft berry lip liner blended inwards

One of my favourite tees (it's by B.Polanec), it's very comfortable and always a saving piece when I'm feeling too cosy or lazy.

Loved my stay in Amsterdam, I'm such a lucky girl I know. But nothing comes for no reason. #workhardplayhard

Amsterdam OOTD & MOTD

Hey busy bees! This post was shot in 2 min so the photos aren't as good but I really wished to show you one of my outfits from Amsterdam where I went from Friday to Sunday. The second post will be up on Wednesday.

I had an amazing time, it was my first time in this smoking city haha but I tuned to this vibe in seconds. I really hope to live in Amsterdam one day, it would be so amazing. The people are kind, weird in a good way, artistic, they all speak fluent English, they are super hospitable, opened and accepting. Multi-cultural at its best. The weather was super nice and sunny although it was freezing and the wind was blowing like crazy.

I wore this gooooorgeous new coat slash cardigan that I got for X-mas from my dearest friend Nathan, which kept me warm inside and out. Couldn't resist wearing a leather black dress- what was I thinking, it has short sleeves!? And of course some leggings and the most comfy and travel appropriate shoes in the whole Universe, my super cool yellow Docs!

Cardigan: vintage

Dress: Front Row Shop

Leggings: Calzedonia

Boots: Dr Martens

Because I completely despise the law that options wearing bold eyes or lips I of course chose to do it both. :)

I used new Parisax Professional makeup. It's a French makeup and skin care brand that offers innovative, quality, pigmented, long lasting products for affordable prices.

I used following eye shadows to create red smokey look:

-Mat Noir

-Cuivre Rouge

-Coquelicot

-Ecru

-Rose Flamingo

-Brick Red

I must admit I used to hate bright pink lipsticks, they associated me with stupid and reckless Barbie princesses. So I avoided them big! But then I received this one and I just gave it a shot. The result was surprisingly good, I fell in love with this shade. It's bold and daring, everything I love. I just have to wear it with darker clothes because I really don't want to look like that girly.

I'm giving away Parisax Prodessional coupons for 10% off on everything. You can get the code simply by commenting down below your email so I can send it to you. I'll send it to everyone who does that!

Nude, Violine (wearing on the photos), Terre Sienne -- get them here!

Those ones who follow me on Instagram know that I either wear nude lip liners or some vampy lipsticks. Lipsticks rarely excite me for longer than a few days because most of them run off so easily it makes me insane. I stick to Illamasqua lippies. But Parisax honestly blew me away with great pigmentation, long lasting foil finish and beautiful cooler shades.

I'm so lucky to have a chance to travel, meet amazing people, educate and collaborate with successful brands. I'm one grateful Earthling. But I must admit that I'm working hard and on all social media you all see only the glam and beauty I want you to see. :) Don't get distracted, I have some seriously tough and vulnerable moments too but I get up and get shit done. #shewon
