Prom time: Sherri Hill dresses Spring 2013

There are specific moments in life that we all inevitably remember. Now I'm taking into consideration only the nice ones (for bad ones I don't have any more nerves nor time), and one of them is the famous prom night! We girls have (or we had) just one thing on our mind- to be the prettiest that evening, to stun everyone with our divine dress, high heels, cat-like walking, dancing, flawless make-up, tan, manicured nails (unfortunately often there are wrong results). I will not delve deeper into this subject because my heart is broken by today's approach and understanding of young women and girls when it comes to the mentioned things, and all thanks to the wrong influence of television and media "stars" (more on this philosophy another time). Anyway what I wanted to talk about today are evening and special occasion dresses!

Postoje specificni trenuci u zivotu koje svi neminovno pamtimo. Uzimam u obzir samo one lepe (za lose nemam vise ni zivaca ni vremena), a jedan od njih je svakako i cuveno matursko vece! Bilo da je mala ili velika matura u pitanju, mi devojke samo jednu stvar imamo (ili smo imale) na umu- a to je da budemo najlepse te veceri, da zasenimo sve svojom bozanstvenom haljinom, visokim potpeticama, macijim hodom, igrom, besprekornom sminkom, tenom, manikiranim noktima (na zalost cesto su pogresni rezultati). Necu zalaziti dublje u ovu tematiku jer mi srce slama danasnji pristup i shvatanje koje mlade devojke i devojcice imaju kada su navedene stvari u pitanju, i to sve zahvaljujuci pogresnom uticaju televizijskih i medijskih "zvezda i zvezdica" (o citavoj ovoj filozofiji nekom drugom prilikom). Elem ono o cemu sam zelela da pricamo danas su svecane i vecernje haljine!

nails of the week: Sparkly Coral

It's time for the nails of the week! Coral, my favorite shade for quite some time, is absolutely magnificent color which successfully balances between pink and orange. Isn't it wonderful it's so trendy this season as well?! I already got a pair of coral shoes and few tops/shirts, now we can rock some details!

Vreme je za nokte nedelje! Koralna, moja omiljena boja vec duze vreme, je apsolutno neodoljiva nijansa koja uspesno balansira izmedju pink i narandzaste. Nije li divno sto je u trendu i ove sezone?!! Vec sam nabavila koralne cipele i par topica/majcica u ovoj boji, sad mozemo da se igramo detaljima!!

BOTANICA natural cosmetic: Antiage/Antirid/Collagen face creams

There is no excuse for the lack of care and concern for your face, even when it comes to the price of the beauty product. If you can not or do not want (still) to afford a good day/night face cream (although I think your beautiful face definitely deserves the best!), you should know that there are creams on the market with the incredibly low prices that can provide you with at least the basic and quite ok care until you opt for something better!

As a matter of the fact few days ago in (you will not believe it!) "Roda" supermarket I stumbled across these 3 creams in cute little packaging that come from "Botanica natural cosmetic" company. Curious about their price?! Each is less than 2 euros! Yes, I was shocked as well! I'm not sure if you can get them in the other countries, but they are certainly available in Serbia! Check out the ingredients and my opinion about "Antirid", "Collagen" and "Anti-age" creams after the jump.

Ne postoji nijedan izgovor za manjak nege i brige o vasem licu, pa ni kada se radi o ceni proizvoda za lepotu. Ako vec ne mozete ili ne zelite (jos uvek) da priustite sebi dobru dnevnu/nocnu kremu za lice (iako smatram da vase lepo lice definitivno zasluzuje najbolje!), znajte da na trzistu postoje kreme sa neverovatno niskim cenama koje mogu da vam pruze barem onu bazicnu i sasvim ok negu dok se ne odlucite za bolje!

Evo ja sam bas pre nekoliko dana u (necete verovati!) "Roda" supermarketu nabasala na ove 3 kremice u slatkim malim pakovanjima koje dolaze iz "Botanica natural cosmetic" kompanije. Znate li koja im je cena? Svaka je manje od 200din! Da da i ja sam ostala zapanjena! Nisam sigurna da li se mogu nabaviti na drugim trzistima, ali su u Srbiji svakako dostupne! Pogledajte osnovna svojstva i moje misljenje o "Antirid", "Collagen" i "Antiage" kremama u nastavku.

Antica Murrina Veneziana necklace

The most precious pieces of jewelry are those that have some specific sentimental value for us. We relate them to our loved ones (especially if it's their gift), unique moments, places, events, emotions... Every piece of jewelry I got from my love is special to me, because I know with what kind of dedication and tenderness he choose every little thing for me. Beautiful example is this necklace...

Najdragoceniji komadi nakita su uvek oni koji imaju neku specificnu sentimentalnu vrednost za nas. Za njih vezujemo nama voljene osobe (narocito ako je to njihov dar), jedinstvene trenutke, mesta, dogadjaje, emocije... Svaki komad nakita koji sam dobila od moje ljubavi je meni poseban, zato sto znam sa kakvom pazljivoscu i posvecenoscu bira i najmanju sitnicu za mene. Divan primer je ova ogrlica...

nails of the week: Pinky Paillettes

I guess you already noticed I've recently started to show more and more of my nails. Well it's just when I have some cute nail polish or style to show you. Here I was using Maybelline's "Colorama" No 77 and Avon's "Color Trend" in "Gold Flecked".

Verovatno ste primetili da u poslednje vreme sve vise i vise prikazujem svoje noktice. To je samo kada imam neki privlacan lak ili stil da vam pokazem. Ovde sam koristila Maybelline "Colorama" broj 77 i Avon "Color Trend"- "Gold Flecked".

nails of the week: Red Night

It's time for another "nails of the week" post! It looks like I enjoy the most in that final glitter/sequin polish which I apply after the regular two layers! With only one coat (just like I have here) you get such an amazing effect!

Vreme je za "nokte nedelje"! Cini mi se da najvise uzivam u onom finalnom laku sa sljokicama koji nanosim nakon regularna dva sloja, pa makar to bilo i na par prstica! Neverovatna je razlika koja se postize sa samo jednim slojem!

Givenchy Organza perfumed body veil

I've never been very fond of any overly strong perfume note. What my mom likes (Chanel No5 perfume types), it's simply a no-no for me, at least for now...

I've recently got Givenchy's "Organza" perfumed body veil that has a fragrant note which should naturally belong to the already mentioned intense perfumes. I thought I wouldn't like it, but for my nose it's surprisingly acceptable. However it is still too strong to use it for the entire surface of the body, but I'm happily indulging in it as a hand cream.

Nikada nisam bila ljubitelj preterano jakih mirisnih nota. Ono sto se mojoj mami dopada (parfemi tipa Chanel No5), to je prosto no-no za mene, barem za sada...

Nedavno sam dobila Givenchy "Organza" mirisnu kremu za telo koja bi trebalo da pripada vec spomenutom intenzivnijem "mirisnom taboru". Mislila sam da mi se nece svideti ali je za moj nos iznenadjujuce prihvatljiva. I dalje je preterano jaka da bih je koristila za povrsinu citavog tela, ali vrlo rado uzivam u njoj kao kremi za ruke.

Maybelline mascara: The Falsies feather-look

If there's some make-up thing I'm always more than willing to try, that would be: foundation, bronzer and especially mascara! Without mascara I don't go out of the house (if I don't wear it and I have to go somewhere- sunglasses solve the problem and cover everything!). My eyes are light, and only a thin layer of mascara makes them much more vivid, brighter and more open.

Till now I've tried a bunch of "budget mascaras" which are available to all of us- their prices are going up to some 10e. The last one that I bought, without expecting anything special, was Maybelline's "The Falsies feather-look" for the volume and so called "false lashes" effect. Each mascara created for any sort of dramatic look is the first on my list, so this wasn't such a hard choice.

Ako postoji neka make-up stvarcica koju sam uvek i vise nego voljna da isprobam, to su definitivno: puderi, bronzeri i narocito maskare! Bez maskare ne izlazim iz kuce (ako je pak ne nosim a recimo moram negde na brzinu da izadjem- naocare resavaju problem i sve uspesno pokrivaju!). Moje oci su svetle, i samo jedan tanak sloj maskare ih cini mnogo zivljim, bistrijim i otvorenijim.

Do sada sam isprobala bezbroj "budzet maskara"- ono sto nam je svima dostupno tj njihove cene se krecu do nekih 1000 dinara. Poslednja koju sam kupila, pritom ne ocekujuci nista specijalno, je Maybelline "The Falsies feather-look" za volumen i stvaranje tzv. efekta vestackih trepavica. Svaka maskara za postizanje dramaticnog efekta je prva na mojoj listi, te mi nije bilo tesko da se odlucim.
