Boohoo.com review

Now that the school year is over,I guess it's time for me to take care of my blog. Here's a topic I've been wanting to write about for the past month but I didn't have enough time. I made my first order from boohoo.com and I really want to share my impression with you. I shop online often but at first I was a bit hesitant about ordering from this site because I thought it would take forever for the package to arrive. But I was pleasantly surprised-the shipping took about a week or so. The package was intact and everything was good.


I had ordered 4 items.


1.An embroidered bomber jacket-I've always wanted that Gigi Hadid street style bomber look. I mean,who hasn't? And I searched through all the possible shops for one that I like,but nothing. You know,that law where you never find something you're looking for.. One day I went on boohoo.com just to waste some time and saw that satin embroidered bomber. "Why not?"-I thought to myself. It really is something different,the embroidered dragon makes it look somehow special and fierce.



Plus,it gives me such a Beyonce strong ass woman mood.


2.A black waterfall coat-I've wanted one since forever! You know,those perfect Kim K outfits that often go with a long coat. Goals. That are finally attainable thanks to boohoo! This coat is definitely not suitable for this warm weather,I know,but who said you can't update your winter wardrobe during the summer?


3.A bandage bodycon skirt-a must have in every girl's wardrobe. Bandage tends to accentuate a girl's curves in a perfect way. Too bad I picked the wrong size and this one is a bit bigger than it should on me. But I guess a belt could do the job!


4.A ribbed bodycon skirt-another must have. But once again it doesn't fit me properly. That's totally not boohoo's fault though! I tend to be a distracted person who doesn't read the size chart for example.


To sum up,I should say I'm content with my boohoo.com order. The fabrics and designs are really good. As I said,the shipping was fast. My favourite item is definitely the waterfall coat,maybe because I wanted it the most. I would order some other time again.
Shop without fear,shopaholics!

3 easy homemade hair masks

Now that fall is here,I believe that we should start taking more care of our beloved hairstyles. There isn't a girl who enjoys it when her hair is messy and tangled,believe me. And nowadays all the blow dryers,straighteners and curlers we use exhaust the hair. Of course there are many good cosmetic products that are helpful for hair repairment. But Mother Nature has given us enough natural resources that don't cause any damage. So here are 3 masks that everyone can prepare at home.

For oily hair.
You will need:
1.250 grams of yoghurt
2.2 tablespoons of Bentonite clay (yes,you heard right! Bentonite clay is good for your hair because it absorbs the toxins)
3.1 tablespoon of apple vinegar (if you don't like its smell,you can put lemon juice instead)
4.half a teaspoon of baking soda

Mix it all up and apply mainly at the roots of your hair,leave it for 15 minutes and then rinse. Be careful,don't apply this mask more than twice a week,because it may lead to drying off your scalp and even cause dandruff!

For combination hair.
You will need:
1.half an avocado,peeled and mashed good
2.1 egg
3.1/4 cup of lemon juice

Leave it for 15-30 minutes and rinse!

For dry hair.
You will need:
1.1-2 tablespoons of raw honey
2.1-2 tablespoons of coconut oil (olive oil works too)
3.1 egg

Let the mask do its job for 20 minutes and then rinse!


Take good of your hair,love it,and it will love you back!

It Bag outfit ideas

The term "It Bag" has been used in the fashion world for a while now. The high-fashion handbags seem to gain even more popularity now that we have all the social media that let us peek inside our favourite celebrities' lives and closets. Well,I'm the typical girl allured by fashion so the fashionista deep down inside me would't stop dreaming outfit ideas with these bags. To sum up,I ended up with a registration on Polyvore and made about 8 outfits in an hour or two.

Cannes 2015: Top 20 Outfits

Now that Cannes Film Festival 2015 has come to its end and I'm pretty sure that everyone has favourite outfits from this year's red carpet events,I decided to share which are the top 20 looks in my opinion.
1. The first place without doubt is for Izabel Goulard. The Brasilian model chose a Zuhair Murad Couture gown. Iza looked more than beautiful in this sophisticated dress!

2. Doutzen Kroes wore an Atelier Versace thigh-high split dress. Well done,Doutzen,you never miss a chance to wow us!

3. Josephine Skriver was in a Gabriela Cadena gown. The Danish model definitely showed class and the see through tulle made the dress even more chic.

4. Diane Kruger wore a Prada gown to one of the movie premieres. This Cinderella look alike dress left me totally stupefied. Let's just hope that our modern Cinderella hasn't lost her shoe in the paradise called Cannes.

5. The simplicity of Lily Donaldson's Saint Laurent gown makes it really stylish. So here I must mention the saying "Black is the new black." Yes,black never gets old!

6. So here we have the gorgeous Karlie Kloss in Louis Vuitton. This double slit dress beautifully accentuates Karlie's 185 cm height.

7. Wow,Kendall. Just wow! She's chosen Calvin Klein for this event and I really want to congratulate her for this decision. I love the burgundy colour!

8. Izabel Goulard's outfit for the launch of Karl Lagerfeld's new book "Fendi by Karl Lagerfeld". And,of course,she was dressed in...Fendi. The lenght of the dress and its white colour bring up the summer feelings and accentuate the Brasilian model's bronze tan.

9. For Magnum's event Miranda Kerr decided on wearing Emanuel Ungaro. The plunge neckline gives her appearance a playful glint and I must admit that Victoria's Secret sweetheart looked simply astonishing in this hot pink gown.

10. The model Petra Nemcova wore a Zuhair Murad Couture outfit. The flowy white skirt made her look like a princess. Still,the weather was quite windy and Petra had a hard time taming her disobedient skirt. But still,who could blame her for showing off her long and toned legs?

11. We meet Doutzen for the second time. Here she wore a Maison Margiela dress. It's plain and I think that's the reason why I like it so much. Plus the red colour really flatters Doutzen's skin. So,to sum up,I can only say one thing-well done,John Galliano.

12. Oh,Karlie,hi again to you too! Karlie Kloss chose this really intriguing piece of clothing by Atelier Versace. The one-pant jumpsuit is a really fierce decision but never mind,Karlie is totally killing it!

13. We see Lea Seydoux in a Miu Miu gown. The blue colour really suits her. I think that Lea has just proven her exquisite French taste once again.

14. Gigi Hadid appeared in a Tom Ford gown. She stunned in this simple yet so elegant long dress with a thigh high split and cut out cleavage. So my soft spot for the stylish model is reasonable.

15. So,here we have Doutzen for the 3rd time in this list. Thierry Mugler here. Seems like we have a winner. Once a stunner,always a stunner. No more words needed.

16. The German model Toni Garrn stood out in her KaufmanFranco dress. The cutout sparkling gown made her look like a fairytale heroine. Now,where's the prince?

17. Emma Stone's look was really simple and elegant. The details of the Christian Dior Couture dress are beautiful and I think this dress makes a pretty feminine statement.

18. Natasha Poly in Atelier Versace. She totally dazzled everyone with this extravagant gown. I must applause Natasha's bold and brave choice.

19. Jourdan Dunn was dressed in Vera Wang gown. The flirty neckline made the dress kind of playful but Jourdan definitely had such a chic appearance with this choice of outfit.

20. Noémie Lenoir was extremely gorgeous in this Chloé dress. She proved that even when she's pregnant,she knows how to dress. Who said pregnant women can't wear runway fashion?

So that's my top 20 from Cannes Film Festival this year. I hope you enjoyed this article.

My trip to Italy: Architecture

Hello there!
I decided to dedicate a post to my trip to Italy. So this one is going to be about the architecture and the places i visited.
 I'll start from the very beginning-the flight to Rome. It was actually very nice and there was almost no turbulence.



Most of the time it was a little rainy in Rome but it was stil so beautiful! This city has such a great atmoshphere. It seems lonely and loved at the same time. Sightseeing was one of my favourite activities there. I visited places like Piazza Venezia,the Colosseum,Piazza di Spagna and the Spanish steps,the Pantheon,St. Peter's Basilica,Villa Borghese and Villa Borghese gardens,Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore,Palazzo delle esposizioni,Trajan's Forum,Altare della Patria,Castel Sant'Angelo,Piazza del Popolo,Piazza di Montecittorio,Piazza Navona,Vatican city...I also visited Trevi Fountain but unfortunately it was drained for a renovation. However,a small basin was set up at the rim so the visitors could throw coins into the water for good luck.
Banca d'Italia


Altare della Patria

Piazza Venezia

Colosseum


Fontana del Moro (Moor Fountain)

Ponte Sant'Angelo from where you can see Vatican

Piazza di Montecitorio with Obelisco di Montecitorio

Piazza del Popolo with Santa Maria in Montesanto (on the left) and Santa maria dei Miracoli (on the right)

Borghese Gardens

Piazza di Spagna

I also spent two days in Florence. I personally think that this town is as amazing and breathtaking as Rome! But it doesn't seem as lonely as Rome. At the evening I went for a walk while it was raining and I almost felt home in Florence! This place calms me down,it isn't that crowded and maybe that's why I liked it so much. The next time I will definitely stay there for more days!

Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore

I've been in Italy before but this time I really fell in love with this country. And I definitely think that what I said is not enough to describe all the things that've impressed me. Have a nice day everyone and see you soon!
