Winter wish list

I created a smaller list of things that caught my eye recently and I would like to own them. OK not all of them, but mostly for sure.I planned this post for a long time and was very interesting to observe how quickly my list was changing. Rare things stay the same and for those I'm sure that I really want.

(Stradivarius)

Checks are really popular this season, also flower embroidery which I adore so much. I found scarf which combines both and I think it will be a trendy addition to my look. I'm not trying to be fashionable, but always buy what I like. This year in great for me, because I'm in love with old fashion and classic patterns.

(sweater Orsay, shirt Stradivarius, gloves Stradivarius)

Let's move a story from before on a next level. Flower embroidery shirt gives somehow that 70s vibe, but because it's on black background somehow looks modern and not your grandma table clot boring. Gloves would be a great match to a third scarf from above, if you would pair them with other two, its just too much. The dark gray sweater with some details is a good piece of especially festive wardrobe and can be worn on multiple occasions. You can never go wrong with black or gray.

(Bottega Veneta Eau de Velours fragrance, Zoya Beth nail polish, Le Couvent des Minimes hand cream, Artdeco glow powder)

The best thing always come on the end. I've been observing this fragrance from Bottega Veneta for two months now and I still haven't found a courage to order it. It can't be tested in our country, sample sizes from Ebay are too expensive. I will probably ˝blind buy˝ it. Reviews are all positive, but this is not a guarantee. It suppose to smell like leather, pink pepper, plums and patchouli, which I think it's amazing.Up there is new nail polish from Zoya's fall collection called ˝Sophisticated˝ named Beth. It's frosty metallic, nude but not boring color and great excuse for me to buy another polish. As you may know I like lavender, and this hand cream from French natural cosmetics brand with a complicated name smells like lavender and clementines. I haven't try to smell it yet, but if I like it, it will surely go with me. The last thing is the new Glow powder from Artdeco. It's from their new holiday collection caller ˝The art of beauty˝. I hope this is similar to their strobbing cream-powders which are amazing. Those have a great but discreet glow. I hope I'll get a chance to try this as soon as possible.

So this is my current list of this that I like, maybe even want.I hope this doesn't look like a Stradivarius commercial, because so many great things come just from there. It's a great alternative to Zara's trendy products if not even better. I'll definitely make reviews of purchased things.

Wishes

  It is time for another wish list or as I like to say it – things that recently caught my attention. Honestly, this is just a small fraction, but I’m too embarrassed to everything out there. The center of the list represents a linen lounge shirt from Intimissimi . I bought one last year and I am super pleased with it. It keeps me cool during these crazy tropical nights and feels very comfortable. I also very much enjoy their silk shirts, but the buttons are simply too annoying sometimes … Now, let’s go up and right to Dior. Another blush? Yes, please! Dior yet again reformulated their famous Backstage Rosy Glow blushes and added some new shades. I always desperately wanted to buy the lavender one, but it was not available in our country. But now something completely different caught my attention – muted, peachy, beige shade – Toffee . I swatched it already and it is pretty, but packed with gold glitter, so I need to try it again to be fully convinced. Smooth&Glow...

Dior Forever Glow Maximizer - Peachy

Apparently this year I have been obsessed with highlighters and blushes because it is time to review another one – Forever Glow Maximizer by Dior in the shade PEACHY. If the Star Glow Filter is very subtle, this is not. It is not tacky and can be beautifully blended, but it’s a real highlighter that serves its purpose. Peachy – light, golden peach with gold and pink shimmer. On my light skin tone, I often wear this as a blush, because I think it works better on me like this. It gives that slight amount of warmth to my face and a subtle golden sheen. It can be built up, but it can also look too much. Now when I’m getting a bit darker I love to put it on top of my bronzer or/and use it as an eyeshadow to achieve a light monochromatic summer look.  Indoor light Sunlight This is a great and versatile product, but I still prefer powder versions of Dior highlighters, they are just easier to work with and blend more effortlessly. I think that with liquid highlighters you always need to be...
