Why do days only have 24 hours?!

I've the feeling that this week's going to be rather hectic, at least today was...
There's not much I've to say today, I'm a little tired because I stayed up all night, watching the Oscars. 
*Yay* for Natalie Portman & Christian Bale! & Jennifer Hudson looked gorgeous in her red dress, it was my favourite dress of the evening.

I'm wishing you all a great week, stay calm & relaxed ;-D






eyes: MAC "Dalliance" on the whole lid, MAC "Unflappable" in crease & outer V. MAC "Carbon" to line.

face: MAC Mineralize Satinfinish Foundation in NW20, MAC "By Candlelight" MSF.

cheeks: MAC "Sushi Flower" eyeshadow used as blush.

lips: MAC "Ever Hip" lipstick, Chanel "Bikini Peach" glossimer.

Sing, Sing, Sing

I wanna feel, I wanna try
I wanna rock in the city tonight
(Live "Stage") 
 
Last night I was singing a few songs with the band of my best guy friend. They had a gig at a tiny punk club & needed a female singer for some of the songs, so they asked me. I enjoyed it & everything was cool, but my heels were killing me (I'll show them to you later on ;-)).
Unfortunately it was way too dark there to take any good pics, but I took a few photos at home before I left:











eyes: Illamasqua "Furore" pigment on lid & in crease, MAC "Gesso" to highlight, Essence "Berlin Story" liquid eyeliner to line.

face: Dianne Brill Smoothing Coverage Foundation in "01 Geisha Pearl", MAC "Tahitian Sand" beauty powder

cheeks: MAC "Pinch o' Peach" sheertone blush, the shimmery side of MAC MSF "Light Medium/Natural and Shimmer" as highlighter.

lips: Kat von D "Adora" lipstick (A big "Thank you so much!" to sunfish who swapped it with me :-))
nails: China Glaze "Red Pearl" (another TY to dear sunfish)

bow: Punk Up Bettie etsy store (Check them out, they're great!)

After I took these pics I realized that the top I was wearing was the one that I wore on our last gig, so I needed to change my outfit & switched to my favourite dress. 
As you can see, my neck looks so much lighter than the rest of my face & my body. It's always like that, as if it belonged to another person *lol* Usually I'm using self tanner to adjust, but admittingly I got lazy over the winter & didn't use it. Need to change that asap as it looks pretty much ridiculous at the moment :-D Oh well, nobody's perfect *g*





Those heels are maybe cute, but they are the most uncomfy shoes I've ever worn! Last summer I broke the little toe of my left foot & the minute I put on these heels, it started hurting again & it still does *boo*!
But beauty knows no pain, right?!

Woohoo - I'm already back :-D

Today I'm a very happy girl - The computer guy installed my new modemrouter & now everything works just fine *YAY*! I told him that he really made my day :-D

The 2 days without internet passed really quickly - thank goodness! When I'm on vacation, I don't miss the internet at all, but being at home without the possibilty to go online was kind of weird *lol*

I took a pic of the make up I'm wearing today (as always please click on the pics to enlarge):








eyes: MAC "Paparazz-She" mega metal eye shadow on lid & crease, MAC "Print" in outer crease & on outer lid (looks more brown than dark grey, though). MAC "Black Russian" pearlglide liner & "Print" e/s to line.

face: MAC "Mineral Satinfinish" foundation in NW20, MAC "By Candlelight" MSF all over face.

cheeks: MAC "Paparazz-She" mega metal e/s as blush.

lips: MAC "Flustered" lipstick with MAC "Miss Dynamite" dazzleglass on top.

Bye For A Few Days!

Last week I already told you about the problems with my router. Now I finally found a nice guy who helps me with the installment & it turned out the problem is my very old modem. I need to buy a new one.
...well to cut a long story short: I won't be able to be online for a few days *sobs* ;-D
Hopefully I'll be online again by the end of the week!
Have a great week y'all & talk to you soon :-)

Would You Be My Valentine?

 Would you be my Valentine
If I was a world away?
(The Get Up Kids "Valentine")

Ever since I saw the promo pictures for Illamasqua's "Throb" collection I was in love with the look & I thought Valentine's day would be perfect for doing my own take of this look:
(Unfortunately the lighting conditions weren't the best, so some of the pictures don't have the best quality...)







Oh, a gift? For me? I wonder what it is!

 
It's a heart!


I have your heart inside of my hands
Will I play it to the beat?! 






eyes: MAC "Blanc Type"  all over lid, "Wedge" in crease & on outer lid. "Blacktrack" fluidline & "Fairylite" pigment mixed w/ mixing medium to line upper lashline.

cheeks: NARS "Exhibit A" (Shoutout to lovely Sunfish for sending it to me!), NARS "Albatross" as highlighter

lips: Illamasqua "Sangers"
A while ago My_private_Jet did a post about Cupid nails on her blog & I liked it so much that I decided to do something similar. So here comes my Valentine's day mani:
I used Illamasqua "Load" as a base & I painted the hearts with Illamasqua "Throb".

My boyfriend was such a sweetheart & gave me the following things (together with some chocolate truffles but I already ate those up :-D) as a Valentine's gift:





 I wish everyone an awesome Valentine's day - have fun :-)
