Fashion | Haul - My new Persol glasses





A few weeks ago I noticed that I couldn't read the powerpoints in class as good as I used to be able to read them, so I made an appointment at the eye doctor. Turns out that I need a small correction on both eyes to let them rest once in a while. I have always been a huge lover of glasses and a few months ago I posted an inspiration post dedicated to my love for them and which type of glasses I was eyeing (hehe, glasses - eyeing, I'm a genius). And now, I finally got to pick out real ones ! 
I downloaded the pictures in that particular post to give the people at the store somewhat of an idea of what I wanted and ended up with this Persol one. I love them to pieces and they are exactly what I was looking for !
Persol is an Italian brand and all their frames are handmade. Now don't start panicking about the price because of the handmade thing, because they are quite well priced for frames. I (well, my mommy) paid €180 for these ones, so I think that's quite a fair price for such a beautiful design. The thing that I love about these frames is the very bold print and the slight cat eye shape, not too plain but not too bold, perfect balance :)

Well, do you like them on me? ;)

Love,

Monthly | It's May !




So here I am again with yet another moodboard and quote ! :)
A little explanation as regards the quote : I have always been jealous of people who are self confident. I have always been a doubter and a very insecure person, other people always seem to do everything way better than me (at least in my eyes). I envy people who trust their gut and follow their intuition without any doubt before or regret afterwards. There hides a lot of fear in me, fear of the unknown, fear of not doing it right, fear of judgements, fear of a lot of things, but along the way I learned to let go of a lot of those. I am trying to be more self confident and trust my gut for the full 100%, but there's still a long way to go ... However, in recent events I have noticed quite clearly that whenever I start to think too much, I kind of make the wrong decision, or more something like, my spontaneous decisions are most of the time the best ones and those are the ones coming from my gut. A good example of a gut decision was the evening when I send my boyfriend the very first text ever between us, I stepped out of my comfort zone big time by making a decision as spontaneous and gut oriented and I can tell you, it was the best decision I have ever made ;)

To gut feelings/decisions ! 
Love,

Lifestyle | Projet C - Introduction


It has become painfully clear to me that I have been living under some kind of rock these last few years, hidden far far away from all things movies and series. Last weekend my boyfriend and I were scrolling through a list of movies appearing in theatres in 2013, but whenever we came across a sequel, I hadn't even seen the first movie yet. Later that same night we were watching the MTV movie awards and oh yes, most of those movies I hadn't even seen yet. That's when I decided (or more like, my boyfriend said to me) that I needed to draw up a list of movies and series that I absolutely have to watch. So I did, last Monday. That's when the idea arose to make this into a project, linked with Kuhisi. ProjectC was born ! (C for Cinema btw)
So the idea is that every evening I watch at least one episode of a series or a (part of a) movie and report back to you guys on my experiences over here.
Since Monday I have been watching one or two episodes of season one of the Big Bang Theory every evening and I really have been liking it so far, so that will be one of the first things I'll be reporting back on. Keep your eyes peeled for that one !

Time to leave the rock behind and get on track with cinema !
À bientôt !

Love,
K.

Beauty | YouTube's finest - MissGlamorazzi


Something different today in the light of my new more personal writing, I present to you one of my all time favourite YouTubers : Ingrid Nilsen a.k.a. Missglamorazzi ! Ingrid is one of the first people I subscribed to on YouTube and I have been watching aaaaaaaall of her videos ever since ! 

She has two YouTube channels, her main channel Missglamorazzi and her vlog channel Thegridmonster. On her main channel she covers subjects such as beauty, fashion and healthy food. On her vlog channel she basically vlogs (haha, obvious Kelly ... :p)
What I love about Ingrid's videos is that they are very 'structured' (that's the only word that seemed to fit here haha), what I mean is that her videos are always uploaded in time and that you can clearly see that she put a lot of hard work and planning into them. They are always super pretty edited and have the most cheerful feel to them.
Honestly, Ingrid seems like such a nice person to me ! I don't know, she seems to be someone who is always kind and cheerful :)
I particularly like her favorites videos, 'Get ready with me' videos and her DIY videos, those are the ones I just NEED to watch as soon as I can :) (Pssssst, I inserted a link with each type of video so you can have an idea of what I'm talking about ;))
By the way, she recently uploaded an apartment tour and her place looks so gorgeous ! Be sure to check that one out to ;)

Make sure to pay a little visit to her channel and subscribe, because you're in for lots of treats ;)
Love,
K.
