Sibyl Vane Boots Wishlist



Ya estamos a sólo dos días del invierno!! Pueden creer lo rápido que está pasando el tiempo? Ya estamos a mitad del año!! Es una locura! Pero de todas formas, el iniverno tiene algunas cosas especiales que uno espera. Personalmente, me encanta vestirme para los días fríos porque me parece super glamoroso usar bufandas, guantes, botas, etc. También se puede usar mucho cuero y piel sintétitca que son dos de mis texturas favoritas. Sin dudas, es el mejor momento para ponerse creativos y divertirse creando looks con miles de capas. Por otro lado, también espero del invierno, esas tardes tranquilas al lado de la estufa de mi casa, disfrutando de un rico té o café.
En fin, como relamente estaría necesitando comprarme algunos pares de botas para este invierno me pareció una buena idea compartirles mis favoritos en esta wishlist de Sibyl Vane.
Esta marca es, sin dudas, una de mis preferidas de zapatos y botas ya que el cuero que usan es de una excelente calidad y te las podes poner hasta el cansancio. Duran más de una temporada y eso me parece una gran ventaja ya que por el precio que tienen las considero como una inversión.
También me parece que tienen unos diseños muy clásicos pero siempre esta marca encuentra la forma de agregarle algún detalle más de tendencia que le da un toque super especial a cualquier bota o zapato. 
Espero que les guste este wishlist, y por favor me encantaría que me comentaran cuál de estas botas es la que más les gusta! :)

I'm just two days away from Winter!!! Can you believe how quick the time goes by?? We are already in the middle of the year!! This is totally insane! But anyway, the winter season has many amazing things to look forward to! Personally, I always like to dress up for cold days, there is something super glamorous about wearing scarves, gloves, boots. And also, you can wear a lot of leather and a lot of faux fur. It's totally the best time in the year to get creative and have fun layering your clothes. On the other hand, I also always look forward to spending some cosy afternoons relaxing by the fire at home, drinking hot tea or coffee.
Anyway, since I really need to stock on some new boots for this winter season, I thought I would share some of my favourite pairs with you on this Sibyl Vane boots wishlist. 
Sibyl Vane is by far one of my favourite brands for shoes and boots because they have amazing quality leather and all the shoes I bought at this store, I have been using them to death! They last for more than one season and that's a major plus because they are a little bit of an investment. Also, I think that they always find a very good way to combine classic designs, which you can wear with everything, but with a trendy detail that makes them more special. So, I hope you like this Wishlist and please let me know which pair of boots is your favourite! I would love to know! :)

Nitolic Sunrise Lemon Creme Review

This product was sent to me to review. However, all the opinions are mine.


A few days ago I was super excited because I have finally received my Nilotic Creme and I was really looking forward to trying it and share this review with you! I was contacted like one month ago by the lovely people from Nilotic and they sent me their product for me to review it so here are all my thoughts about this cream.
First of all, let me tell you a little bit more about the company. Nilotic is a brand which produces their cream with pure natural shea fruit butter and natural ingredients, 100% animal cruelty-free and supporting fair trade. In fact, they collaborate to empower women and communities across rural Uganda because for every order placed, they are contributing in planting 3 trees in Northern Uganda, providing 3-week education for a child in need in Kampala, Uganda and hosting routine woman empowerment workshops in East Africa for rural women. It always makes me so happy when I'm able to get to know and collaborate with brands which not only create a very high-quality product but also they have a very clear vision of a better world and take concrete actions to achieve that. 
Moving onto the Nilotic Creme review, in my case, I ordered the Sunrise Lemon cream which apart from having 100% organic, virgin and unrefined shea fruit butter, it has 100% pure lemon skin oil. It's important to add that all of their products are high in natural phytonutrients for anti-aging moisturization and they are antibacterial and anti-inflammatory. Plus, they are suitable for all skin and lip types because they are so pure and natural!



My First Impressions:

I'm going to start by mentioning how much I love the packaging of this product, it's very clean and natural made of 100% sustainable bamboo and it looks amazing! Also, it really contains a lot of product (50ml) and I'm sure it will last for a long time.
Another thing that really shocked me was the smell of this cream, it really smells like freshly cut lemon, the scent is so natural, powerful and delicious I really felt like I was opening a lemon cake! It's incredible!





Applying the Product:

One great thing about this product is that you can apply it wherever you need, it's not only designed for your face skin. You can use it on your face, lips, hands and body, and it helps you to hydrate, rejuvenate and relieve the dry skin or lips and also it's good for insect bites, wrinkles and for acne treatment. That is a big plus for me because I love products that you can use for different things and I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of use out of this cream.
Another awesome aspect, it's that you only need to apply a tiny amount of the product, you only need to cover your fingertip with it, and that's enough for your entire face because even though the product has a solid texture like butter it melts in your skin, which makes it so easy to spread all over. After I finish applying the product, my face feels so hydrated and nourished and in the morning my skin looks perfect and feels incredibly soft. I have been using it for many days now and I can totally see that this cream helped me with my acne so I'm very happy with that.




So to wrap up this review I have to say that I'm very satisfied with this product, so far I have only seen very good results, my skin is brighter, hydrated, soft and I'm also getting great results with my acne, which is a great plus! In case you would like to try this Nilotic Creme or any other of their products just go to their website and you can use my special discount code: LOVESKIN867604 to get 20% OFF! Hope you find this review helpful and please let me know if you have used this product, I would really love to know your thoughts and opinions.

Favourite Nail Polish Shades for Winter


A medida que los días comienzan a enfriarse en Buenos Aires (la semana pasada hizo tanto frío que ya empecé a usar mi tapado y mi bufanda), los colores de mis esmaltes de uñas también empiezan a volverse más oscuros y profundos. No se bien por qué, pero me resulta muy glamoroso llevar un esmalte de color bien oscuro en estos días fríos, como un marrón oscuro o un violeta que se vea casi negro. Me parece que combinan mucho mejor con el tono y el estado de animo de mi guardarropa de invierno. Asímismo, otro color que me encanta usar durante esta temporada es el bordeaux, me parece que es un tono que siempre se ve impecable! Así que para el post del día de hoy, les quería compartir mis tres tonos de esmalte preferidos para el invierno. Estos son los esmaltes que uso continuamente en esta temporada porque me parece que tienen unos tonos hermosos, muy chic y que van perfecto con mi paleta de colores de invierno. Cuáles son sus colores preferidos para el invierno? Tienen alguno de estos esmaltes? Me encantaría conocer sus opiniones ;)

As the days start to get colder here in Buenos Aires (last week was so cold, I already started to wear my coat and scarf) my nail polish shades start to get darker as well. I don't know exactly why, but there is something extra glamorous about wearing a deep shade for these cold days, like dark brown or dark purple, they just match better with the mood and the tone of my winter wardrobe. Also, another shade that I love to wear during this season is bordeaux, I think it always looks perfect! So for today's post, I would like to share with you, my 3 favourite nail polish shades for winter. These are the nail polish I continuously wear throughout the season because I think they are gorgeous, chic and really go well with every colour of my winter palette. What are your favourite shades for winter? Have you got any of these nail polish? I would love to know ;)

Revlon Parfumerie, shade Bordeaux 

Dior Vernis, Shade 918 Hypnotic 

Sally Hansen, shade 510 Pat on the Black

Coffee stories in Croatia



Croatians love coffee. That's one of the first things you may notice when you visit one of its cities. You can find many beautiful coffee shops in every street and all of them have people drinking at all times. I have heard one time that many people when they visit Zagreb for the first time, they think is a holiday because there are people sitting at cafes not only in the morning but all day long. It happened to me as well, I remember I couldn't understand what was the working schedule there, I thought: when do these people work? But after living there for more than a month I was able to understand better the Croatian coffee culture and also I started to embrace it. I could also say that it's one of the things I miss the most about being in Croatia so that's why I want to share with you in this post my little coffee story travelling through the country.  
As I said in the beginning, Croatians love coffee, they drink coffee many times in the day, two, three or even four times. It's not that they just drink it but they also have like this amazing ritual in which they just meet with someone to chat and sit at the coffee shop for hours. And this could be at any time during the day, the time when both of the participants are available because they are going to stay at the cafe for a couple of hours, just relaxing, talking and sipping the coffee very slowly, alowing the time to just pass by.
It's the perfect moment to discuss ideas, to seal deals, to catch up with a good friend, to tell important news, to reflect about life, the talk around a cup of coffee can lead to any topic. It's also the perfect place to see and be seen.
Even though I was travelling alone, I ended up adapting this ritual for myself too. Everyday after having lunch I would go to the city center to have a cup of coffee in one of the many beautiful terraces that you can find in Zagreb streets. Not only all of the coffees I have tried were so good and delicious but also I enjoyed a lot sitting there with no worries in my mind, just watching all the people pass by and absorbing the vibe and energy of this city. Also whenever I went to a new city, after a little walk around I always ended up looking for the perfect place to enjoy my coffee of the day. I tried to take pictures of all the coffees I had during my days in Croatia and put them all together in this post to show you my trip from a different perspective. It's a different kind of travel post but I hope you like it :)

Oops! I forgot to take the picture before finishing the coffee and the cake :P 

Best terrace in town: Crafter's Lav Zagreb 

 A place inspired by Nikola Tesla

Coffee tme at the Main Square 


This place has the most delicious cakes: Magnolia's Cake Boutique 

If my Croatian language skills are correct, this says: "Life is more beautiful with a warm cup in your hands" 

This place was one of my favourites: Mala Kavana 



 Coffee with a declicious coconut cake

Coffee with a typical Croatian cake: Kremšnita (I can't explain how delicious it is) 


Another great spot: My Way


I love the designs in these cups
