Birthday blues


On May 4th I celebrated my 30th birthday. I must say I felt slightly depressed in weeks before and very nervous about my ˝party˝ at work. It’s a custom to bring some food at the office when celebrating you birthday, especially for so called milestone birthdays. At the end everything went just fine and smooth and I was happy with my big day. My worries were unnecessary as usual.

I don’t feel different now, I’m just joking about my age more often. My boyfriend is a bit younger than me, so I sometimes call myself old lady. Hey, but I’m also more experienced, right? J

My Facebook wall was almost clear (I think 7 people from 104 wrote me), what looks kind of sad, but doesn’t really affect me. I’m not popular person with big circle of people around me, but I know who my true friends are.

Tomorrow, whole 15 days later, because I wanted all to be there and this was first available Saturday, I will celebrate with my friends. I planned this day like it was my wedding. I just got carried away. Not with food or something special, but only with my outfit. I wanted all white blouse with lace and I was on a mission to find it. It had to be special and perfect, I become ˝blousezilla˝, just stupid how many energy went into that. I felt a pressure to look perfect. Not girly and boring, but elegant and age appropriate. Look at me, I’m 30 and I look better than ever kind of outfit. Thankfully that passed, when I found my blouse and I was able to carry on with my normal life. At the end I will chose my favorite makeup and accessories to complete my look and feel comfortable in my skin. I stopped trying to much and worry what others will think about me. After all, it is my day and I am the one who should be celebrated, although I hate being in the centre of attention.

So I’m excited about my birthday dinner tomorrow and looking forward to see my friends after a long time. Another big thing is tomorrow – it’s a royal’s wedding day. To be honest I don’t like Meghan Markel as much as I like Kate Middleton, but I enjoy watching these ceremonial things. Of course I’m curious about her dress and also what will other royals and celebrity wear. It’s a big event for royal watchers, so I hope I’ll be able to see in broadcast, because my boyfriend hates everything princesses related.

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...
