Disney: Minnie Mouse Gift Set

I came across this Minnie Mouse gift set the other day when I was browsing through the gift section at Europris. When I saw this I just knew that it had to be mine, I dont know whats up with me and gift sets but I adore them :)



♥ Shimmer Body Lotion, Coin Purse & Eau De Toilette.




I have to admit that I was a little sceptical at first because of the perfume since I dont have much luck with perfumes that come in the more ''cheaper'' gift sets. The perfume have a sweet smell which reminds me just a little of Fantasy by Britney Spears. Minnie Mouse have a much lighter scent than Fantasy.

The coin/makeup bag is really cute and its going to be perfect to keep small items that I dont want to lose in my handbag. Im not totally convinced about the body lotion though. It has a lot of shimmer/glitter which Im not a fan of. I would have appreciated this product more if it was just a regular body lotion. The body lotion has the same smell as the perfume! Im happy that I decided to pick up this set, it is $13 which I think is a good deal. If any of my Norwegian readers are interested in this set, you can find it at Europris :)

Jenny Skavlan for Bik Bok: New Boots

Say hello to my new babies!!! Im in love with my new boots that my mom bought me when we went shopping together a few days ago. They are from a brand called Bik Bok which have gorgoeus clothes and accessories!

These are my new favorite pair of shoes. I went for the black pair since they will go with everything In my closet, they also had them in Burgundy which I think Im going to pick up too. They are just too gorgeous to pass up :)











These reminds me a lot of the Jeffrey Campbell Lita shoes which I have been seeing everywhere lately on different fashion blogs. Maybe sometime in the future I will get my hands on the Spiked Lita Platform Boots which I have been eyeing for a while now, they are gorgeous :)

Haul from H&M: Sweaters, Accessories & A New Everyday Dress

I have a clothing haul to share with you all tonight, I recently ordered these items at hm.com/no. Im in love with all the clothes for Fall/Winter, I just wish my closet was bigger haha! Anyone wish they had more space in their closet? :)


♥ I have this sweater in green and I really love it. When I saw this on sale I just had to pick it up, its super soft :)


♥ This is such a cute, simple and perfect everyday dress, I cant wait to wear it with my new boots :)


♥ Scarf, Mittens, Tights, Knee High Socks & a Cap.


♥ It gets very cold in Norway when the Winter arrives, so big and warm sweaters are must haves here. I think im going to wear this with some grey, thick tights, boots and my new leopard hat :)


♥ Gold Bracelet.




♥ Im loving these earrings, especially the pink flower and owl earrings :)

I really miss posting my outfit pictures and sharing my style with you all, I always recieve such amazing feedback from you guys! The weather is so grey and boring here now that Winter is here so my pictures dont look as good as they do in the Summer. Im going to try and snap a few outfit pictures tomorrow and see how they turn out. Keep your fingers crossed :)

Twilight Beauty Lipgloss Set [Swatches]

Many of you wanted to see swatches of my new lipglosses from the Twilight Beauty lipgloss set I recently picked up, so here they are :)

What I really like about these lipglosses is that they are not sticky at all, they smell like strawberry and the packaging is super cute. They dont have that weird taste like a lot of lipglosses do which Im very happy about!





Jane and Alice look very similar but Jane is more of a Pink/Silver gloss, Alice is a pure Silver. I think that Alice would look so cute on top of Eloquent Air from the new Glitter & Ice Collection from MAC Cosmetics, what do you think? :)

Twilight Beauty Nail Varnish Collection [Swatches]

I wanted to share the swatches of the nail polishes from the Twilight Beauty Nail Varnish Collection Set that I picked up yesterday. I just finished swatching all three colors and Im amazed by how beautiful they all are.

All three nail polishes are very pigmented and opaque after just one-two coats. I used two coats on all three colors since I like how it intensifies the colors. I love how perfect these colors are for Christmas and I cant wait to start rocking these shades, especially the dark purple :)





This set is $8.50 which is a good price for three beautiful, full size nail polishes (same size as OPI) I have a few ideas for upcoming nail looks, will try and share them with you all soon. Some of them contains glitter which is perfect now that Christmas is almost here, wohoo :)

Twilight Beauty Lipgloss & Nail Polish Sets

I went by Europris today to pick up some storage boxes for my new makeup drawer and I came across these fun Twilight Beauty sets. I picked up the lipgloss and nail polish set which Im super excited to try out. They also have other sets available but these two really captured my attention. Each set is $8.50.

I think that these make perfect Christmas presents, you dont have to be a Twilight fan to enjoy the products. I just checked out the Twilight Beauty website, their products look really fun, need to check and see if they ship worldwide :)









I will post swatches of the lip glosses and the nail polishes soon. There might even be a little giveaway if anyone is interested in these as well. Let me know in the comments below :)

Kicks Beauty Nail Polishes in Fab Jean & Oxygen Forest [Swatches]

I recently picked up these two nail polishes from our new beauty store called Kicks Beauty that just opened up here. These are $6.70 each and you get 8ml of product which is not that much but then again I never manage to finish my nail polishes so I guess its okay that the bottle isn't so big :)

When it comes to the colors, I have to say that Im a little disappointed in Oxygen Forest. I thought it was going to be a gorgeous metallic green, but instead it dries to a matte polish. Im not a big fan of matte nail polishes, I just dont like how they look on my nails! But then I tried adding a coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat and it looked much better. Fab Jean is a very pretty denim blue color with beautiful sparkles. Im excited to rock this color on my nails :)

New Chunky Stone Ring

Im completely in love with this Chunky Stone Ring from Love Hearts and Crosses. This ring is a perfect alternative to the Arty Oval Ring from YSL which I have been obsessing over for years!

The Arty Oval Ring is $250 on ysl.com which I think is too much to spend on just one ring. Just imagine how much makeup you could buy for $250, hmm lets not think about that haha! The Chunky Stone Ring is only £15.00 which is a total steal. The quality is really good, it looks more expensive than it is and it comes in Black, Turquoise, Coral, Green and Pink. Sadly, its only available in Ring size - US 7 (Diameter 17.5mm) which is a medium.









I only ordered the Chunky Stone Ring in Turquoise since I didn't know what to expect and how it was going to look. But now that Im obsessed with it, I really want it in Black, White, Coral and Green as well! If you are interested in this ring, here is the link. If you decide to order it, let me know what you think about it :)
