Inspired by … Jill Stuart Summer 2016

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included! This month I really wanted to do something with a hat (silly idea, as it turned out), and something blue, so I chose the Jill Stuart Summer 2016 ad for it´s beachy and summery vibes.   Now I had forgotten that I lost my white…

Looking for a New Years Eve Makeup? – Be inspired!

It has been more than a year now that I have been doing the “Inspired by…” series, a monthly feature where I try to recreate the look from a seasonal ad, using products I already own. And while I was browsing my pictures, I realized that most of them are pretty outgoing and party appropriate, so I figured: What better way to recap these posts than today? Maybe you will find something that will inspire you when going out tonight. If so, please drink some Champagne for yours truly, sitting…

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation.

“I love my P2” collection – We may not have Boots, but…

Many of my German readers can relate: You watch You Tube videos, you read blogs, and you can´t help but bemoan the fact that Target, Boots (and Sephora!) are way out of reach. Now let’s not forget that we do have our own drugstore, stocked with brands people in the States will never lay hands on. But are they a worthy competitor? Well, when one of my favorite bloggers published a Boots only makeup tutorial (Watch here) right the next day after I received some pieces of the “I love my…
