My OOTD: Stripes & Suede Skirt

Image
Hello guys! I've done a tiny bit of shopping over the last few days and so I managed to get a totally new outfit, which I absolutely love! I love how the stripey top looks like tucked into this A-shaped mini-skirt, which has a suede-like fabric. I really like that because I wasn't too keen on getting a real leather skirt being not able to wash it at home.  I was looking for such a skirt for absolute ages and now that I found this, I think I'll live in it. To stay warm I threw on my also new fluffy dusty pink cardigan, which is so comfy and cosy that I don't want to take it off. striped t-shirt - H&M fluffy dust pink cardigan - Forever21 suede-like A-line skirt - Forever21 black tights - Primark I also like how my hair looks like today. I never managed to create a messy bun, so today was pretty special to me! :D (No coral phone anymore, now I have a new one with a minty case, which I actually like a lot!) I paired the cloth

February Beauty Favourites VIDEO

Image
Hello everybody, I want to apologise for being absent for sooo many days, but we're currently finishing off the flat, so it's still busy and since uni starts in some time again, we want to make sure it all gets done by that time. But, to make it up a bit I decided to film a video about my February Beauty Favourites rather than writing a blog post, and I even recorded the video in my new flat, which is why everything looks so empty and not very inviting. But no worries, I promise you that it starts looking nicer and that in some time I'll be able to make nicer videos and blog photos! So, here's the video for you to watch and as always, make sure to let me know what you think about it, suggest some blog post and video ideas, cause I'd love to hear what you'd like to see here! :) Thank you for watching! -Olivia ~23.02.2016~

KIKO Lipstick Haul

Image
Hello everybody! A few days back I went to town go get myself a certain lipstick from KIKO and there I decided to get a second one too, because why not? So, I wore those lipsticks a few times already but didn't have a good occasion to take proper pictures of them and to write something here. So, maybe you've already seen the Endless Love lipstick range- it is just SO cute! I couldn't decide what colour to choose, but I went for the dark pinky-purply shade that I think matches my complexion the best. The shade is called 05 Soft Marsala and what I absolutely love about this lipstick is that the heart already tells you exactly what the colour looks like. It's not only cute-looking but also practical. But obviously the main reason why I got the lipstick from the Best Friends Forever collection is the shape of it! They are all heart shaped and it seemed to be just such a fun thing. I really wanted to have a lipstick like that and so I just got it straight away.

Love Me Green Product Review

Image
Hello everyone, after a few days of being very busy in my flat, I finally have some spare time to quickly write a blog post that I was supposed to do such a long time ago already! A few weeks back I got a parcel from the brand Love Me Green with some products to try out and review. I got a little set with three full size products, plus two samples that came in a cute little bag that reminds me very much of Christmas time when children get gifts on the 6th of December here in Austria- usually in that kind of bags- so cute! The brand produces only vegeterian beauty products- and some are even vegan, they guarantee that there is no animal cruelty involved in the whole process, which is a very big plus I think! Their beauty prodcuts are packed with natural exotic scents and aromas. All products are made in France, contain no parabens, silicones, paraffins nor petroleum. And even the packaging the products come from are made in an environmentally friendly! I also like the design

Study & Exam Tips

Image
As you all know I started studying in Vienna last autumn and now that I've passed all my exams up til now, I thought I could give you a few quick tips how to succeed in school and at uni. I have always been the language-person, so apart from that, I don't really know much because most of the stuff I only learned by heart for the exams. Well, there are obviously topics that I'm very interested in too, so don't worry. My first tip when it comes to studying and exams is being organised. There is no worse thing than waking up and realising it's the day of your exam and you totally forgot about it. For this reason I recommend having an agenda and just taking every single piece of information down. Just to be safe. During the semester I even wrote down every single lecture I had on which day, because I wouldn't remember. Now that I have a break, I don't have much in my calender, but it will fill up again soon. When you start revision, make sure you plan h

Rainy Day - Cosy Clothes

Image
Hello everyone, today I'm back with a new OOTD and I actually wanted to take some pictures outside somewhere, with a cool background, but the rain is just crazy and I was happy enough to be home so early. I had an exam today, which I am very terrified about now because I really need to pass it. Then I had to sort out a few more things and now, even though it is not even 2pm, I feel like it's already so late, since I've been up since 7. But, now over to the outfit- let me know if you like it! black knit dress - Primark Tartan flannel shirt - Esprit black tights - Primark black knitted scarf - Primark black Vans Authentic Lo black faux leather jacket - Pimkie + Fossil leopard Sidney shopper My make-up is the usual one, since I didn't want to have a make-up drama right before my exam. ( obviously) I'll now sit and wait for my exam results, which freaks me out a lot. And if I pass it, I'll have lots of free time until March! Have
