Giant Wknd Inspo

Hello beautiful faces!
Saturdays are usually lazy days for me and that means that I spend waaay tooooo much time on pinterest and tumblr getting some inspiration for my house, closet, cooking etc. Per usual I decided to make a post sharing my biggest inspirations that you can also find over on my pinterest or my tumblr.

Aloft Hotel Launch Party

Last night I had a chance to go for a Aloft Hotel Launch event with Frances  and we had the best time. It was a night full of music, free drinks, stylish people and fun. Oh and photo booth sessions. 

This party was kind of a last minute event in my schedule since Frances texted me like four hours before the party started and we had no idea if we should go or not. But then I though "Hm, music! I love music! I should try it.". And so we went and we were really glad we did. No really! We were SUPER glad we did!

First of all, as we got in my mind was blown away by the combination of old architecture and modern touches. Plus all those party lights made the building look absolutely amazing.

I have been loving it all

It is already the end of November and we all know what that means! Loads of November Favourites videos and posts are coming up these days. And so is mine ahah.
I filmed a video for you over on my YouTube channel and I decided to make a bit extended version here on my blog.

What do you carry around?!

I came out with something new for my blog. Something I don´t think I have ever done. I took a few photos of what I had in my bag today as I was going out to run some errands.
I have seen many bloggers doing this kind of post and it always made me go "oh interesting", "wow that is lovely" or "I have that too" so I hope my post will make you think something similar.

Long time no Instagrams

Instagram is an app that became one of the ways that we communicated together. I love to share some of my favourites, obsessions or even moments of my life with my friends and some of my readers. I am not going to get too deep on how I feel  about technologies and ways of our communication these days (maybe next time) cause all I wanted to do was share some of my Instagram photos from last couple of weeks (in case you ain´t follow DeniVev on instagram yet) .

Festive Kiss

Dark Lips = My Obsession ! If you read my blog for a while now you know that. I like to try out different combinations of lipsticks I own and every now and then I come up with a shade I am in love with. Seriously! If there was a way I could marry to this lip colour...I would! I have been wearing these two together for a few weeks now and I had to make a whole post about it. I just had to!

I know that there is a lipstick by MAC and also by NARS in similar shade that I have created but they seem to be too expensive to me. And you know that if there is a cheaper way of getting what I want, I go for it. ahah

So combination of NYC Lipstain in Forever Mine Wine and Alverde Lip Pencil in 30 RED has been my essential lately. It makes that perfect fall/winter and festive ready colour. Plus I feel like it goes with my skin tone pretty nicely.

You can find both of these lip products in your local drugstores and you won´t pay more then 3 pounds for each. I personally found them both on sale and I paid 1 € for each. Isn´t that great?!

What are your favourite fall/winter lipsticks? Do you own maybe these lip products?
Until next time keep safe and live your life to the fullest !

OOTD: Wednesday Fanciness

I love to dress up fancy. But fancy means something else in every once dictionary. For me fancy meant that I´d actually wear a dress or skirt or anything a bit girlier lately. I wore a lot of leggings and jeans these days so the fact that I´ ve put a skirt on AND three days in a row was a holiday! That is why I thought I´d share this causal but still fancy outfit with my blogger loves.

 I have been loving tartan for some time now as you all now! And I finally found the perfect scarf for all of my outfits. I got it at Primark for 6 pounds and it is reversible so you have slightly different print on the other side. It is one of those big blanky kinds and it is sooo super warm. Ever since I bought this scarf there were maybe two outfits that were missing this lovely piece.  And all the colours it has are the perfect colour scheme for my wardrobe, especially through autumn/winter.

 This kind of outfit is my safe uniform. You know that kind that you go for whenever you are in a rush or you are too lazy to come up with something new and original. You saw me wear this shirt about hundred times already but it is one of those basic pieces that can not miss from any woman´s closet.

What do you think about my outfit? Would you wear this? Oh and what about those cheeky socks in a boots that peak out a bit and add a bit of colour that this outfit needed? Are you into peaking socks? They keep your feet extra warm after all.
I hope you are having good week so far.
Until next time, Keep safe and live your life to the fullest.

#COStyle 2014

In a short-cut, Celebration of Style is a three day festival of style taking place in venues across Liverpool bringing together some of the style influences from the fashion, art and photography world, including Matthew Williamson himself. 

I have been lucky enough to take part at this style event on Thursday and Friday (13th and 14th of November) and I had loads of fun. I went (as always) with my fashion partner in crime Frances. We started with a launch party on Thursday night that was taking place at one of my favourite art stores in Liverpool Nook and Cranny on Bold street. Here we had a chance to see some of the work from new art and fashion talents as Wicker Wings, Sarah Rafferty and a few more. The atmosphere was great as there were loads of other bloggers, journalists and other arty or fashion-y people. It was all a great change after my lonely evenings at home and wearing a fancy clothes instead of PJs was a great feeling as well. 

 And then on Friday we went for an Influence of Style expo where you had a chance to take part at seminar talks and then browse through exhibition of some great brands and stores as Nook and Cranny, The Leather Satchel co, Illamasqua, MATALAN, The Body Shop and many many more. It was great chance to see a few of the best pieces from brands, stores and we also had a chance to get our hair or make-up done by professionals who even gave you a few tips on what and how to do. 

I tried my FIRST cake pop, we had our portraits done by lovely Rheannon Ormond from Nook and Cranny, we chatted with some lovely people from MATALA about their Alphabet Scarves for Alder Hey Charity support and took a scarfie selfie. After that we used a opportunity to get our make-up done by Benefit makeup artists. I personally talked with my "make-up lady" about every single product she used on me and she had a few great recommends for me (make-up and carrier wise) which I am super grateful for. Oh and the best part was probably when I stood a few meters from Matthew Williamson. Even seeing such big person from fashion industry in person was surreal and then seeing how down to earth he is.... oh wow. 

 Over all I had a great time meeting new bloggers and people from the industry I adore the most (art and fashion). We did have some troubles getting to the Fridays exhibition and finding it, but I guess it was our own lack of luck. 

As last I´d like to thank Frances and the whole COStyle team for making these two days of my life so nice and for giving me a goody bag :) . 

Until next time keep safe and live your life to the fullest loves!

Beauty Wishes

Is it too soon?! NO! I think it is just that perfect time to make your Christmas wishlist and write to Santa or Father Christmas or Дед Мороз.
I have been thinking whether I have been good or naughty this year and I couldn´t make my mind. But my Santa said that I should make a wishlist and give him one. So I thought. I thought really hard!
And there are loads of beauty stuff that I would really like to have in my collection so I thought I´ll share with you and in case you are thinking of a good beauty gift for a woman in your life you might consider one of my gift wishes. These products are loved by thousands of women so I bet your friend/sister/mother.... would like them too.

Naked palettes are huge obsession of many beauty lovers. I don´t own my own palette yet but I hope that will change soon. They seem to be a kind of must have in a makeup collection of every woman since they are the perfect nude shadows. You can do so much with the colours. I´m telling you..Must have! You can get them online at Urban Decay or Feel Unique or get them yourself at Debenhams. They are a bit pricier but worth the money.

Every woman wants to smell perfectly so buying a perfume is never a bad step. I personally wish for a Chloe perfume. I am still not sure which one though so if you own any let me know which one is the best.

Dark lips are super trendy so owning the perfect selection of dark lipsticks is a huge deal. MAC and NARS do have a bit pricier lipsticks but they are worth every penny. The texture is always amazing and choice of colours is breath taking. I am on a hunt for a good purple toned lipstick so please let my Santa know what colours are worth getting.

Having representable hands is important in a life of a woman. A lot of information and first impressions comes from that first hand shake and look at the hand of a person. So getting a woman a good nailpolish is like helping her with a life. Every nailpolish collection should have those dark and nude colours and that is why I wish for OPI Viking in a Vinter Vonderland and Essie Chinchilly. They are too gorgeous not to own. You can get both of these brands in Sephoras or Superdrug stores so it is not that hard to get to them so there is nooo excuse for not getting them .

I hope I helped you with your wishlist and with a present ideas for your friends/family. Do let me know in the comment below what is your biggest beauty wish this Christmas so we can give each other  good tips.
Until next time... keep safe and live your life to the fullest!

Trench and Coat

You either love them or hate them. Some might think that trench-coats are meant for good old Mr. Sherlock kind of men but those like me are obsessed with them and wear them like crazy! They were around for decades and they are NOT going anywhere as far as I know. Which makes me more then happy obviously.
Why am I suddenly writing about them? Because I shared waaaay too many outfits featuring this clothing piece and I feel like it deserves its own post.

Trench-coats go with almost anything but in case you are still not sure how to style it, here are some photos that might inspire you.....

How I wore it:

Who wore it:

How others wore it:

Where to get (aka my dream coat):
There are many places where you can buy them and it also depends on your financial situation. In case you ain´t want to spend too much many you can go for a store like I did. Mine coat is from TAKKO. I paid about 30 € which is great price for such a classic wardrobe piece. Then you can get them in H&M, ASOS or even PRIMARK for similar price.
I personally think that this kind of coat will never go out of style. Not completely anyhow. So investing into a good expensive and great quality one would be worth! I know that once I´ll have some spare money I would get a BURBERRY trench-coat straight away. Their once are beautiful!!!!

There are loads of other ways to wear this coat and I do have a few more pics that might inspire you over on my pinterest  so in case you are interested just go over there.

But that is it for this post. Did you get any inspiration? Do you own your own trenchcoat? Are you a endless lover of this clothing piece?
Until next time....keep safe and live your life to the fullest.

Beauty for less

I love everything that smells nice and makes my body or hair feel amazing! And when it is super cheap I am over the moon happy. Who wouldn´t be?! That is exactly a combination that Creighton´s Cosmetics give you. I bought a few products by this brand and I am so happy with the quality and price... I had to let you know .

I have purchased a Shower Gel for 89p about a month ago and I still have a bit left. Has great scent and leaves my skin pretty soft.
The other product is a hair conditioner for blonde hair. I didn´t expect much from a hair product I paid 1 pound for but I should have. Leaves my hair soft, shiny and my blond ends are much nicer. I was hoping it would make my blonde clearer and it DID already after second wash.

I was just really nicely surprised by these two products and I definitely won´t hesitate buying any other from this British brand. Give them a go too ;)

P.S. I am NOT sponsored :D I just enjoyed them.
