Beauty | Inspiration - Messy Waves






I have been on the lookout for a new hairstyle, because I found myself wearing the same updo every day. I do love my long ombre-ed hair, but I've become quite out of inspiration with how to style it. Actually I am looking for a quick style that I can manage to do in max 15 mins before leaving for school. 
I stumbled across this style and loved it instantly ! My hair is pretty straight, but the shorter parts, like what's left of my fringe, have a mind of their own and just point every direction. So messy waves seem ideal to me. This look has much of a 'I woke up like diz' vibe, but it looks put together at the same time. 
My best ideas for this look are basically randomly curling sections of hair, big or small, front or back, just very random. Then I would use some sea salt spray to acquire the messy part and then setting it with hairspray.
I'm going to give this a try and report back to you !

Love,
Kelly

Fashion | Inspiration - Glasses





So I've always had this strange thing with glasses. I don't have very bad vision, but I have a strange desire to wear glasses. I know people with glasses always complain and prefer wearing contacts. But really, I'm jealous of glasses-wearing-people, because they have yet another accessory to play with.
One of the reasons why I love summer, is that you have the sunglasses as an extra accessory. Far too often, I start wearing my pair way too early and hold on to them way too long. I did buy some fake thick black frames with plastic transparent 'glass' last summer, but I stopped wearing them because it's kind of obvious that those are not the real deal.
Nonetheless I wanted to share some glasses inspiration with you guys ! I really like the kind of semi-transparent brownish printed frames, like you can see in the pictures above. In terms of shapes I prefer the shape of the first pair, straight lines but oversized. 

I am actually looking for a pair of fake glasses that look like they're real. So if you guys have any suggestions, please do leave them in the comments below :)

Love,
Kelly

P.S. : Sorry for not posting Lifestyle last week, but my internet was down the whole weekend, so I didn't really have opportunity to post. Scusi !

Beauty | Inspiration - Winged Eyeline






This is going to be a very quick post, since I'm typing this at school, because I'm a bit early to class, unfortunately it was the only moment I could find to write a post before Thursday.
For ages I have envied woman with the skills to beautifully apply winged eyeliner and I still haven't figured the trick out myself. There are three people in particular that I envy the most for their skills : Lauren Conrad, Zoe Sugg and Marzia Bisognin.
I really love a kind of thick line just above the lash line that wings out perfectly towards the brow end (as you can see in the pictures above) and my plan is to practice until it's perfect. I'm going to try different brands, different ways, different poses and I'll report back at you every time.
For my summer make up look I want to create a look with nice and fresh face make up, a soft lip color and for the eyes, just some winged eyeliner and mascara.

Mission started, soldier Geuens signing out !

Love,
Kelly

Fashion | Inspiration - Summer sneakers




It's February and this one is already thinking about spring and summer, well better too soon then too late ey? 
Every summer sine my feet stopped growing, I invest in a good and durable pair of sneakers. Two years ago I bought red high top Converse All Stars, last year I bought white low cut Converse All Stars and this year I'm thinking about buying a pair of Vans. 
I've never owned a pair of Vans sneakers before ! I did own a pair of ballet flats, a short hype when I just started high school. 
The pair(s) that caught my eye were the kind of 'slip in' sneakers, the ones without laces and with elastics on the side. I really like plain black ones with white detailing or the furry variation of these. But surprisingly enough the cheetah printed ones really keep haunting my mind. They could spice up an entire outfit and make every plain summer outfit just a little bit more interesting.
Not sure if I'll be able to find these exact pairs here in Belgium, so I do have a plan B, which are the plain Vans sneakers, with laces, in a burgundy or creme colour.

I'll keep you guys posted on my sneaker hunt ;)

Love,
Kelly

Lifestyle | Just a little update.


Well hi !

It's the end of my monthly posts week filled with lifestyle and what way to end it better then by updating you a bit on what has been going on round here.

Well, while my summer was filled with fun and blogging, my first semester back at uni was not completely the same. I hardly had/took any time to blog, but as you could already read in my new year's resolutions, I intend to change that. The aim is to post on here at least once a week and ideally three times a week (a post of each category)
School wise things have been going good ! Unfortunately I have to resit one exam (Damn you, French Linguistics !) but I kind of had a feeling I wouldn't pull of passing all my courses first time once again. Oh well, what else to do when you have three months of vacation ... ;) I just started my second semester at uni and it is promising to be a good one. I'm already trying to put them resolutions to work by the way !
Also, a week ago, I came back from a ten day skitrip in Les Deux Alpes, France and it was amazing. While skiing didn't seem to be one of my gifted talents, I had an awesome time with a bunch of great people. It was nice to be around a big group of eleven people after spending six weeks alone behind my books and of course to be around my boyfriend for ten days straight.
So this week I kind of took a rest week and mostly caught up on sleep every evening, but I seem to have gotten back on track and next week will be a nice and busy one. That's how I like 'em ;)

Starting next Tuesday, my aim is to post fashion on Tuesday, beauty on Thursday and lifestyle on Saturday, but we'll see how it turns out ;) (Don't shoot me if this doesn't work pleaseee !)

Till Tuesday !

Love,
Kelly

Lifestyle | Monthly Goals - February

Well hi there !
It's been quite a while since I've done one of these posts, but I thought it would be nice to pick them up again.

So my five goals for the month of February and I will report back at the beginning of the next month.

1. Try to enjoy a maximum of every single moment
2. Find a good rhythm for school/free time
3. Get enough sleep
4. Drink enough water
5. Don't do a trillion things at a time, do one thing and do it with dedication

That's it, my goals for the rest of the month !
What are your goals?

Love,
Kelly

Lifestyle | It's February


It's February and time to get blogging here on Kuhisi ! 
I've just got back from an awesome skitrip and am fully energized for a new and awesome semester at uni. Let's get this thing started !

It's the beginning of a new month so here I am again with a moodboard and a quote.
This month's quote is one to urge me not to be afraid and just live and do the things I want to do. There's no fun in living an ever safe life, but sometimes I have to remind myself of that.

Have a lovely February !

Love,
Kelly
