Double celebration

Yesterday was a total celebration day. I celebrated my and my best friend Emma's birthday and we also celebrated our "anniversary" (which is actually as late as August). We've been best friends for almost nine years and that's over half of our lives! I'm really lucky to have a best friend like her: I can talk about anything with her and we always have super fun. We've grown up together, too, so we know each other very well. I got Italian ELLE, lovely furry socks and a cute flower ring from her. And of course I gave her a present and a card too.
There was no dress code but I still wanted to wear something fancier than just jeans and a top. After a long consideration I decided to wear a jeans tunic that I've bought a long time ago but I haven't really worn it at all. Neat yet casual! And red lips made the outfit more festive.

The classic: red lips

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 I bought this gorgeous red lipstick yesterday. It's Rimmel's and the color is 170 Alarm. I had to try at least six different tones of red but finally I decided that this was the best. I've always thought that red lipstick wouldn't become me since I have blue eyes and I think red lipstick suits people with brown eyes, but a couple of days ago I saw Amanda Seyfried on the cover of Demi-magazine. Her style with bright red lips really impressed me - and she has blue eyes too. She looked stunning! That's why I also wanted to try red lips. And you know what: I like it A LOT!

A day full of love

I had a lovely Valentine's day! I got to spend it with my friends and I got to hug everyone and I got nice little notes from my friends. And these sweet pink jeans! I actually got them a while ago but I've been saving them for Valentine's day because they are perfect for this day, I think. I absolutely love the jeans<3. Anyway, below I have couple pictures from some of my friends as an honor for Valentine's day.
 
 
I wish you all had an amazing Valentine's day!:)

Sweet 16 party!

I had a really fun Saturday night! Me and one of my best friend's threw a "Sweet 16" birthday party at her house to some of our friends. There were lots of treats and we sang and talked and laughed. We even arranged a little quiz for our guests about me and my friend. All the participants did quite well.
I wanted an outfit which would be festive but not too formal. As I mentioned before I had a hard time finding an outfit. At the end I wore my Zara skirt which I have bought almost three years ago already! But it still fitted well and it's really pretty and nicely shaped so I had no reason not to wear it. Especially after my mom gave me an idea to combine the skirt with my sister's new blue lace T-shirt (once again I'm wearing someone else's clothes...). After all, the outfit turned out be really nice, I think!:)
In the last picture there are all of the amazing gifts that I got. No one was supposed to bring a gift for us but when I came home I was carrying a big plastic bag full of gifts. Anyway, I'm really happy about the gifts. Can't wait to get to use them!:) And the book, Fashion now, was wrapped with pages from the ELLE magazine! I didn't even want to open the package because the wrapping was so cool. And once more I want to thank everyone for the gifts!
I'm sure you all know what day it is tomorrow. So I wish you all happy Valentine's day!:)

As you can probably tell it was my birthday today. I can't believe I'm already 16! I am sooo happy that my gift from Meine Namenskette arrived in time. I can't wait to wear the necklace!:) It was really positive surprise to wake up in he morning and see that I did got my gift on my birthday morning (it could have take even 10 days so I was prepared for it to come after my birthday). Otherwise I has a normal day: school, flute lesson and studying to German test. In the morning I got carrot cake and Pommac, though;). My birthday party is on Saturday as I've already mentioned so birthday theme keeps going on!

Apassionata!

 





 

blouse - Zara
jeans - Zara
shoes - Rieker
bag - Mango
bracelet - JC
 
 


 
Yesterday we drove to Helsinki,  the capital of Finland to see Apassionata, an annual spectacle full of amazing horses and riders. The even took place at Hartwall Arena. We were there for the first time ever because the tickets are so expensive. This year we got them for free but even if we would've paid for the tickets it would've been totally worth the money! I warmly recommend the show even if you are not a horse person. The show was called "Together forever" and the story was about a girl named Amelie and her growing up. The horses did all kinds of tricks. It was really entertaining to watch and the atmosphere in the arena was terriffic!
After the show we went to Jumbo, a huge shopping center in Vantaa, to do some shopping (though we only had about an hour). Surprise, surprise I didn't find anything to buy...I am feeling a lot of pressure because my birthday party is in less than a week's time and I'm still not having anything to wear!
Anyway, I wanted to dress up casually (because of the over two hour drive) but still chic. I wore my army green blouse from Zara because it's feminine, yet casual. I wanted to add some edge to the outfit and the perfect way to do that was to wear the leather bracelet from JC. Also the golden details in my bag and my shoes bring a nice twist to this outfit.
I wish you all great upcoming week!:)
