The glow

You know that look you have once you arrive to your  holiday? All the stress is gone, a lot of sleep, happy eyes... The glow is a real thing. Holiday glow. Not only I am stress free but I had so much time to chill and rest , it would be impossible to not look like this.
 I have been back home for few days . Spent time with friends and family. All nice. As much as I am enjoying this, I am actually looking forward to be back in reality and my world. This time though, I am bringing my glow with me.
 I tried being as comfortable as possible. Also I got slight burn on my skin so wearing as little clothes as possible is great. This was one of my fav looks. I wore it to a diner date with one of my best friends. Super comfortable and easy on skin.

 Have you been for your holiday this year yet? Or you just planning your trip.
Until next time, keep safe and live your life to the fullest

I love braids! As a hairdresser my favorite technique ever is braiding. Any type I can. With or without extension, cornrows, fishtails, dutch braids, french braids. Just love it. 
It is a perfect way to freshen up your summer style. I do them on myself all the time too. It works its magic really!




Get inspired - Get creative - Experiment a little


What is your favorite style? DO you rock them Kardashian braids? Or you like more of boho vibe?
Let me know x

One really Happy Girl

There are many things and places that make me happy. This was one of them. And very high up on the top. Trip to London. My birthday trip actually. I went down south with someone special and I have never felt happier. This city has something that filled me up with joy, hope and new ideas. I realised how many possibilities there really are. It was pretty something.
I didn' t plan on sightseeing or anything. Just needed to feel that big city vibe again. First day was tour round few artsy neighborhoods, second day belonged to especially bankside and Camden. Last day was more of 'someone specials' day. Catching up with friends and showing me Brixton etc. I loved Elephant and Castle vibe. There was something so nice about the mix of cultures and types of people. Same in Brixton. If I was ever to move down to London I would sure think of them two areas.
As far as my closet goes I tried to pack light. Not over packing or nothing like that. These are my go to jeans. I combined them with different tops and accessories. SO yh haha

Did I mention I was happy?

What makes you feel over joyed? Is it a thing or place?

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

Grown Up Talk

Life is fucking hard. Adulting sucks. Waking up every day knowing you have to rush off to work, make money, deal with people you wouldn' t necessarily wanna talk to any other day, listening to everyone's problems and then going back home starving and exhausted. Second you get your pay check, all the numbers fly off to god knows where and you are back to stage 1. Isn' t that your dream life?

I love my job. I am crazy happy that my childhood expectation of fun day is actually my now every work day. But it is the same struggle too. It repeats itself over and over till I drop in bed. We all know the drill. As a hairdresser you take care of people. I call it an alternative way of carers job. You get people down, ask whats wrong, what they want and need, try your best making them happy, listen to their life stories, troubles, etc. If you decide they deserve it you offer them tea and biscuit. Or if they are too much and you need them to just shut up for a bit. It really isn' t all fun. At the end of a shift you really are physically and mentally drained.
Then to top it off you get occasional lady or gent that no matter what won' t be happy with your service. Now that can really drag you down. After all that people still expect you to be good fam and friend.
I am an emotional and stress ball guys! Get it?! Do you know why most bartenders drink or take drugs on their shifts? Cause they go through similar shit just for 5 to 10 minutes at a time. I get minimum of 20 long minutes.

As much as I complain , it still is my dream job and I wouldn' t change it for anything unless I really had to. But maybe next time you sit in that chair, think of my words. Or dear family and friends, be aware... next time I behave like a bitch, you probably had nothing to do with it. Might of been that gentleman that wanted a skin fade but as soon as I gave him a 1 on sides he got tears in eyes and felt the regret and gave me a long talk bout what a horrible human I am.
Much Love

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

Maya found her inner GAGA

A few weeks ago I had an assessment in college. It was my last project to do so I was very excited. My joy was multiplied by the fact, that I could create any Avant Garde look for photoshoot and get my inspiration from anywhere. Meaning I am in full charge of hair, make-up, styling and photography. That is my dream.
Me loving beauty and seeing something wonderful in everyone i started thinking. Where do I get inspiration from. But more importantly, who will be my model? Oh I know!!! I know!!! Maya! My gorgeous crazy mate. From there on inspiration was easy. As I though of Avant Garde I just saw her face. Her unusual face full of genius ideas. Lady Gaga ladies and gents!

Blues... Purples... and all the rest

I have been totally obsessing over trying different colored lipsticks. Something new everyday. I guess it started when my closet turned into black whole and my OOTDs became repetitive and monochromatic. I needed something interesting to break the boredom.
If you know anything about me, it is that I am not afraid of crazy lips.
 This color might not be too crazy or out there but belongs into my favorites at the moment. I remember looking at myself last year, as I put purple lipstick on and thinking 'wow , that is very vibrant'. These days I can' t leave the house without it. I means LOVE.
I combine two loves together. It is this gorgeous purple from last years collection for COLLECTION you can find in superdrug and plum lipgloss from NEWLOOK. It is gorgeous. It isnt too shiny, but defo not matte. It has creamy texture but not sticky at all.
As I said.. LOVE.

What are you obsessed with these days? Have you tried that grey color trend? I bought a lipgloss in grey and love it. Still have to find an event to wear it to though.

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

Happy Weekends Yall

 One of my happiest weekends last month has most definitely been the one, when one of my besties came to visit. The hardest thing to do when moving to foreign country is leaving everyone else behind. All the family and friends that stayed in my hometown. I am very lucky to have people so close to my cheesy little hard and it was really hard to go away from them. I don' t believe in good-byes. I never say those words to people I love and know I will see again. Ever. Even if I was to take a break from them for good year I WILL only say 'See you later'. Especially my best friends.
Timi is one of those I know I will never get out of my life. She came in as we started high school and got stuck. For that reason I am more then happy to see her whenever we can.

The other week she came to visit out lovely windy city of Liverpool. Now for someone who has been used to life in London, where she spent her summer, this wasn' t very exciting. That much better was time we spent together. We made sure to have fun no matter what. Oh and we sure went shopping way too many times. Too many. Ask my bank account if you don' t trust me.

This is a lifestyle and fashion blog. Yes! For the lifestyle part I don' t think there is anything about Liverpool I haven' t mentioned yet. We seen all the must check spots and I had to take Timi to Nandos as she ha never been and I am still kind of obsessed with.
As far as the fashion goes, you have to keep it casual at day time. Wearing anything but pants at this time of a year is as risky as going roller coasters in A-line skirt. Risk of having Marylin Monroe moment in front of everyone and anyone. I actually love how we sort of ended up matching. That is something I never thought would happen as our styles are pretty different.
My OOTD: Jeans- New Look, Jacket- TK Maxx, Shirt- Primark, Bag- H&M, shoes- Primark, Sunnies- Steve Madden
Simple jeans, chucks, cross body bag, leather and top combination is priceless. Combining all the must haves of any typical white chick.
Timi's OOTD: shoes- Converse, Jeans- H&M, Jacket- Bershka, Scarf- H&M, Bag- C&A. Very Zoella, don' t you think?
There is nothing better then finding a little bag that is out of your way and won' t annoy you when moving, but also stores all your musts. we both went for slightly different styles. I used it as main accent point and Timi did just little subtle but useful way.
What do you consider happy weekend? Do you have any routine or just wing it? Oh and have you ever been to Liverpool?

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

Harder each day aka Deni rumbles. Again.

Life gets complicated. Harder and harder with every new day. Older I get more I realize this. I always knew that being grown up and all will be rough. I mean of course those eye bags under everyone's eyes meant trouble. I was getting myself in trouble. We all are. There is no normal or easy way to go around this. Its natural process. Sometimes it feels like somebody up there is playing a joke on us and one day I will wake up and our God or Goddess will say its all been just a test. Exam for strongest individuals. And price is an easier, happier or even healthier life. Wouldn't that be fantastic?

Talking bout exams. I had to take a few in last couple of weeks and let me tell you, those people over there making them must be high. The rules get weirder each year. We get questions we don't even understand. I know the point is to see if your brain even works right, but can somebodys mind have certain capacity? How much can one remember before running out of space. I daily feel like a little notification 'storage running low' will pop right across my forehead.We take in so many information each day. Wish I could just select what is going to stay there and what I am going to trash. I would honestly bin most of the things my brain deals with every day...

We would have so much nicer and care free type of life. I have too many people around me that I let close. I am also easy to effect so if you are having a bad day, high chances are that my day is going to get worst too. If you feel down my empathy is going to kick in and imma feel flippin down. Like seriously. My mood is going to drop it low! But if I had a chance of selecting what I let into my brain I wouldnt get these moods, now would I? Easier life!

I dont even know what I am rumbling bout over here. But try to think about this? What if there really is just someone playing a joke on us. I mean we probably have a whole script wrote down. Every step we take or will take is written down and we are just dolls in somebodys playhouse. Barely getting by.

Think haha.
Or don't! Give yourself a break boo!

Until next time, keep safe and live your life to the fullest.

Good or trouble

I have always been the good kid. Never in trouble. Always did as mummy said. As far she knew anyways and even if I did misbehaved it has never been something she wouldn' t laugh at today. I did have a lot of after school activities to keep me away from trouble. Now that I am an adult and can pretty much do as I decide, I still have that voice inside my head. Something telling me to get away from trouble as much as possible. This doesn' t happen to many of us though does it?
