Lederhosen Boardshort

2011-11-15T06:35:00.000-08:00

Look what I just found!

Yes! As a native Bavarian I secretly have a weak spot for traditional Bavarian clothing. When I was little my mom got me a lederhosen in red...that caused a lot of trouble with my German family though. A Lederhosen was meant for guys, not girls! My mom is pretty rebellious sometimes and likes to break with tradition, she's great at thinking out of the box! In the end my grandma also got me a Dirndl but I can't remember I wore it actually..

I'm on the hunt for a picture of me in the red lederhosen, as soon as I find pictures I'll put them in this post.

Men Shorts €79,95

Women Shorts €59,95

Boys Shorts: €59,95

At the Blue-Tomato website about their Quiksilver collaboration:

This boardshort is bound to go down in history, right next to Mozart and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Bringing the Alps to shores near you!

The Boardshort with the Lederhosen look is the fantastic result of a collaboration with Quiksilver within the Quiksilver Union project in 2009. Nine selected surf shops (including Blue Tomato) were invited to create their very own boardshort. Thanks to an innovative photo print on fast drying material, we were able to transform a piece of Austrian culture into a fashionable piece of surf wear! 100% polyester.

The Beauty Bakery order

2011-10-18T12:39:00.000-07:00

The days are getting shorter and it's getting colder day by day, so I've decided to spoil and pamper myself with some cute "The Beauty Bakery" treats to survive these dark days!

Last night I ordered 3 different products to give them a try:

Ingredients: Sheabutter, cacaobutter, wallnutoil, almondoil, frangrance oil, mulsifan, maïzena.

1. Skin Creamers in "Hot pink playboy" and "Secret lover".

Moisture is key to keep skin healthy in Winter. And according to the website these cuties will make your skin "the most sexy wanna touch skin ever". You can put them in your bath so they can serve as a body mask or you can take the topping off and use the bottom part in the shower and rub it all over your body.

Ingredients: Kelp, essential cedar wood oil, essential grapefruit oil, sheabutter, cacao butter, coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, rinicus oil, palm oil.

2. Facial Purity Bar in "Detoxing Seaweed".

This facial cleansing bar is made for oily skin. I have a lot of acne lately so I can't wait to see how it works for my skin. The website says it works against blackheads and stimulates the healing of wounds and infections.

3. Solid Shampoo Bar in "BIG Hollywood hair".

For big shiny hair that smells like coconut and limes <3 hmmm!!

Stay tuned for the review of the products...Next week!

After 18 weeks of hard work, I've finally passed my Make-up artist exam! I really don't have much time to tell you elaborately about it. I'll save that for another time probably. But I wanted to show my final pictures quickly.

Next time I'll be posting more about my life as a starting make-up artist and about my internship at Lovesoul Clothing.

MUAs getting ready

Yummy cupcakes!

My friend and accomplice Vera

The makeover with the Liberty of London model

Love the hat (L)

Hi everyone!

Here is my first blog post and I'm so happy it's about the launch of the MAC counter in Eindhoven! Before I had to travel for about 1,5 hours to spend my money on their lovely products, but now I'm able to be there within 15 minutes!

About the launch, I already got there at 10 am but apparently they weren't going to open until noon. So..2 hours later my friend Vera and I finally could start browsing around in the brand new counter (L). The entire counter was in the mood of the "Liberty of London" collection, there was a guy playing guitar in a lovely chair with the Liberty of London prints all over and there was a model who was getting a Liberty of London makeover by one of the MUA. They also had the most tasty cupcakes! Nikkie from Nikkie Tutorials http://www.youtube.com/user/NikkieTutorials was also there, I'll probably see her a lot at the MAC counter.

Finally I bought from the Liberty of London collection the lipsticks "Ever Hip" and "Petals & Peacocks" (I already have "Blooming Lovely"). From the Pret-a-Papier collection I got the "Coral Crepe" paintpot and I got a brow pencil in "Lingering" because I've been wanting that one for a long time. I also got "Woodwinked" e/s for my mom for mothersday.

Vera got herself her first MAC stuff today! From the Liberty of London collection she bought the "Free to Bee" e/s and from the permanent line "Electric Eel" e/s. As a base she got"Painterly" paintpot. That's a really great (and daring) starters kit I think!

Soon I'll be reviewing my new purchases!
