City of Bones Nail Art

Hi Girls,

I love The Mortal Instruments!
I'm reading book two, City of Ashes, now and I <3 the movie too!
The Shadow Hunters have runes - marks - which I made on my nails!
I hope you like this nail design.


These are my rune nails!


I made my base color with 2 layers of Apple Mint Candy of Essie (click here), the runes with a Sally Hanson nail art pen in the color blue and a final topcoat.


This rune means love <3

Do you like the Mortal Instruments book series and movie too? 

I would love to hear! Please comment down below.

xoxo,

My Gilly Hicks Summer Favorites

Hi Girls,
This summer I went to the Gilly Hicks store in Boston.
These are my Gilly Hicks Summer Favorites! 


This is an overview of my 3 Gilly Hicks Summer must-haves.


The first one is a cami with an aquarelle design of a sailboat on it. There are also glitters on the print. This cami is really comfortable and it's perfect for the summer.


This is my Gilly Hicks tote with a beach scene on it. The fabric is really soft and it looks adorable! The bottom is navy and the back is white.


This is my Gilly Hicks aquarelle iPhone case! It's an hard case for an iPhone 4/4s, but they also have this for an iPhone 5. I think it's awesome and it your iPhone is protected.


This is a pic of me wearing my cami, my tote and my iPhone with it's GH phone case.
I love these GH summer must-haves and I hope you like them too!

I hope y'all have a great day!

A&F Outfit of the Day

Hi Girls!

Today is my first OOTD (Outfit Of The Day)! 
When I was in the US I had a coupon of one of my favorite brands, Abercrombie and Fitch, for a 20% discount on the new collection. And this is what I bought. . . 

This is the oh so cute coupon
A very preppy white blouse with is transparent on the shoulders and the sleeves. And you know, if you don't know what to wear, a white blouse with jeans is always quintessential!


I wear this blouse with my Gilly Hicks destroyed jeans shorts. My accessories are my lovely necklace of Tiffany & Co. (which was a present from my parents) a leather bracelet with a bow and a cameo ring of I am.


Combine with flip-flops or sneakers and your summer outfit can't go wrong!

Baby Lips

Hey Girls,
When I was in the US, I bought my favorite lip balm at Ulta . . . . Mabelline's Baby Lips!
These lip balms are fantastic for your lips and they look good too!


BABY LIPS!


I bought the Electro Neon color, Strike A Rose, and a lip balm like sunscreen, Quenched.


They soften your lips for a long time! I <3 them :D


This neon color is so bright! I wonder how the green looks on your lips :P


This lip balm softens your lips and protects your lips from the sun.


I totally recomment these lip balms and they look fabsome on your lips! One baby lips is 3 dollars.

Hope y'all have a great day!

Essie Mint Candy Apple Nailpolish

Hey Girls,

Today I'll be giving a review of my newest nailpolish: Essie's Mint Candy Apple!
I think it's my favorite nailpolish color at the moment.


This is how it looks like. The design of the bottle is cute and the brush is handy to work with.


Apple Mint Candy is a little bit less minty as I espected, but it's a beautiful color with a light washed jeans fabric!


This is how this Essie looks like on my toe nails. I like it a lot and I totally recomment this color. It's perfect for summer and you also can wear it in the fall, winter and spring.

I hope this review was helpfull for you guys! Hope y'all have a nice day.
