Highlights of 2017



2017 was a very different and challenging year for me but also a year full of accomplishments, incredible experiences, fun times, nice people and learning opportunities.
This was the first year that I have found myself leaving the job I have had for so many years and although it was super scary at the beginning to move away from that comfort zone and that I have had some difficulties dealing with that uncertainty I feel like that experience allowed me to grow a lot. It gave me the opportunity to enjoy more things in life, like traveling. It also taught me to have patience, to believe in myself and to keep working on the things that I love.








I feel so grateful that I was able to travel two times this year to a place I love a lot and to discover new cities, to meet new people, to get immersed in the culture and, once again to learn a lot from that experience. 








Another great thing about this year is that I feel I have accomplished my blogging goals, my blog looks a lot more professional, I have started to understand my camera and to take better pictures and also I have recently changed the design of it with a nice template. I'm really loving how everything looks like now and I feel super excited to continue working in 2018!








In addition, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all, once again, for your continuous support. I really appreciate that you take the time to read my blog and that you are so kind to share with me and to leave a comment here. It really means a lot to me and it's my biggest source of motivation to keep going! 








I hope that this new year brings you a lot of love, peace, fun, laughs, trips, learning experiences, new and interesting people, opportunities and everything you wish for! Happy 2018!!! :)

Merry Christmas!!!


Merry Christmas!!! I hope you had spent a beautiful time with your family and loved ones! :) I wanted to do a quick post just to tell you this and to thank you for all your support throughout the year!! It means a lot to me! 
Apart from that, I would like to share with you some snaps from my Christmas Eve, I had a nice and pleasant time with my parents and my dog. We enjoyed pasta for dinner and then some delicious nuts, sweets, and pastries.








In regards to my outfit, I wore something casual because I was staying at home so I decided to wear my favorite jeans from Zara, with a top I have had for quite a long time but I really love it. It's from a brand called Rapsodia and I picked it because of the red color which I think looked perfect for this festive occasion.On my feet I wore my favorite black sandals from H&M, they are so comfortable and stylish and I thought they looked perfect with the rest of the outfit. 







What do you think of my Christmas Eve look? What did you wear? I would love to know! :)

My Top 5 Beauty Favorites 2017

Top 5 Beauty Favorites 2017


We are almost in the new year, I still can't believe how fast this year went by but at the same time, I'm very excited about the new challenges and opportunities 2018 has for me :)
Anyway, before we finish 2017 I wanted to do a little recap of my top 5 Beauty Favorite Products of this year. Most of them I have already mentioned in my previous posts, maybe in a review or in monthly favorites but I feel like this is a great opportunity to confirm that these were by far the products I have used and loved the most during this year. Let's get started!!

1- Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate

This is number one by far because I feel like my life has divided into before using this product and after. It made a complete difference in my skincare routine and I can't tell you how much I love this product! It makes my skin look brighter, healthier and renewed every morning.

2- Shiseido Synchro Skin Lasting Liquid Foundation

This is the only product I haven't mentioned before on the blog but it really deserves the number two in this post! I have bought this product back when I was in Zagreb during the winter and I have to say that I wasn't even looking for it. I actually went to the store asking for a Clinique foundation and they didn't have it so the salesperson recommended me this one and when she tried it on me and fell instantly in love! :)
This foundation is so light that you don't even feel it on the skin but it has a very good coverage. And what I love about it is that it looks completely natural. I bought it in the tone Golden 4 and it matches perfectly with my skin tone.

3- L'Oréal False Lash Architect Mascara

This was without a doubt my favorite mascara this year and almost the only one I have used. It makes my lashes look so dark and it does a great job of separating and curling them. I really love how my eyes look every time I use this product, it makes a total difference on my make up!

4- Mask of Magnaminty by Lush

This product was such a favorite of mine that I did a special review about it! This mask was life-changing for me! It helped me deep clean, refresh and renew my skin and I love it so much that I already finished it! I was using it constantly every single week since I got it and the results were amazing! Looking forward to a new trip so I can buy it again.

5- Kiehl's Smoothing Oil-Infused Leave-In Concentrate

I talked about this product in my Birthday Haul because it was a present from my friends and I can't tell you enough what a great present it was!!! I'm using this kind of oils or serums in my hair all the time because my hair tends to be super dry and damaged. This product has Argan and Babassu Oils which is exactly what my hair needs to be healthy, hydrated and nourished. Plus, it has the most amazing scent in the world and it doesn't make my hair oily or anything. So I really love it and I'm using it every single day as well.

So these were my top 5 beauty favorite products of this year, I hope you like this post and I would really love to know which were your favorites of 2017?

Wedding Dress Inspiration by Dressywomen



I know I'm not anywhere close to getting married but maybe some of you are and in that case, let me tell you how happy I am for you, or maybe you have some friends that got engaged recently and they are going to start looking for the perfect wedding dress. 
This is without a doubt the most important task of the wedding planning process, especially for the bride, because every single bride wants to look her best during such an important and special day. 
It can also be a very stressful task because there are a lot of different dress models available in the market so it's very hard to find the right one for you and, on the other hand, wedding dresses tend to be very expensive and sometimes we find the perfect dress but it's out of our budget.
So, for today's post, I want to share with you a very interesting option to consider if you are looking for your perfect wedding dress. I'm talking about Dressywomen. This is an online store that specializes in selling beautiful dresses for any occasion you may have. And what's even better is that they have a great selection of cheap wedding dresses so you don't have to worry that your dream wedding dress doesn't fit your budget. 
I'm going to show you some of my favorites from this site to inspired you and help you if you are currently in the search for your wedding dress. This store has international shipping so no matter where you are located you can still order your dress from here. I really hope you find this post helpful and please let me know which dress is your favorite! :)

What I Wore in a Week - Summer Edition


Hoy es momento de compartirles otro video! Por suerte me estoy manteniendo en mi objetivo de subir un video por mes así que estoy muy contenta! Estaba pensando en hacer más videos de moda así que me encantaría conocer qué piensan de este video en particular o en caso de que tengas otras ideas que les gustaría ver déjenme un comentario y con mucha alegría voy a tratar de hacerlo! :) 
Bueno, volviendo al video del día, la idea fue mostrarles todos los conjuntos que estuve usando durante la semana pasa, no son nada especial porque la verdad es que no tuve ningún evento u ocasión importante pero me pareció que iba a ser más divertido mostrarles algo más sobre mi estilo personal de todos los días en un formato diferente.
Espero que les guste y que les sirva un poco como inspiración! También recuerden que se pueden suscribir a mi canal de Youtube así pueden ver mis otros videos! :)

Today is time for another video!! I'm keeping it up with my goal of uploading a new video each month so I'm very happy about that! I was thinking about doing more fashion videos so please let me know your thoughts about this and if there is something in particular that you would like me to do, please leave it on a comment and I would be more than happy to do it!! :)
Anyway in this video I'm showing you all the outfits I wore throughout the week, nothing special because I didn't have any important event but I thought it was going to be fun to share with you a little bit more about my everyday personal style in a different way than a post on the blog.
I hope you like the video and that you find some inspiration! Also don't forget to subscribe to my Youtube channel and to check my other videos :)

Christmas Gift Guide from Sammydress

Christmas is right around the corner so I wanted to share with you some cool gift ideas from Sammydress. This site has a lot of different items that could be great, original and useful gift options for any of your friends! 
Therefore, for today's post, I have selected my favorite items to help you out with your Christmas shopping! I haven't even started yet to buy all the presents I need but I think I will start in the following days. Anyway, doing your Christmas shopping online sounds like the perfect idea if you want to avoid the crowds and get all the presents you need from the comfort of your house.
So, let's get straight to this gift guide!

Beauty Accessories

We all have a beauty-obsessed friend that would totally love to have this acrylic makeup organizer, or who always needs a new makeup brush kit. I have also found this incredible led mirror which is absolutely perfect for any beauty lover! Not only is super useful and original but I'm sure it would also look amazing on her vanity table.



Jewelry

This is another great option for a gift! Everybody loves a new piece of jewelry and a girl can never have too many of them! I'm currently loving the trend of stacking a few different necklaces together and I have found two cute options on this website. The first one has that astrology theme I have mentioned in a previous post because of the little half moon and the other necklace has a nice marble touch which is also very chic! Another item I love is this cute gold arrow bracelet which I think looks very stylish.






A Cute Bag

The same as jewelry, a girl can never have too many bags so this is another great gift idea! I have found many lovely bags with different colors and designs, so I'm sure you will find something appropriate in this store. My favorite ones are this round brown bag with the tassel because I think it has a very interesting shape and it's easy to style because the color goes well with everything. Then I also love this beautiful black bag with a buckle detail because it looks very elegant, and it's also a classic piece that you can wear all the time. Last but not the least, I really like this pink-nude crossbody bag because the color is absolutely divine and I think it's a great option to add pink to your wardrobe. 




I hope you like these gift ideas!! Let me know which item is your favorite and I would also love to know if you have already started with your Christmas shopping.
