Songs on Replay November

Hey everyone!

Still didn't really figure out if I'll be blogging in English or Dutch, but here's another blogpost. This blogpost is also going to be a series where I'll be picking 5 songs that I've been "replaying" ever since I've heard them. So next month will be another one. I do have to warn you, I only listen to Korean music so if you're not interested in korean music or hate it, don't click play on the video's then, thanks!




Starting with the number 1 song I've been loving this month: Infinite- Paradise. Just hearing those first seconds makes me feel so at ease, really wonderful! 



Next up is B1A4- Beautiful Target. The MV is just so amazing and the lyrics are catchy. B1A4 is definetly a band who will be successful in the future!


Wheesung. Such an amazing singer! He is in the army right now for two whole years, and this was his last song, "놈들이 온다" meaning: "They are coming".



ALi, I've been listening to her songs from  the beginning but I do have to say, this song really rocks. Her voice is really perfect. Listen to her song "How could this be?" above.



I just found this song on Youtube, but I already love it. These 3 girls can sing! Probably the reason they're called Woman Power. The song has an old feeling to it, reminds me of the time I was really into old korean music. Listen to "Hate you hate you" above!
So this was my Top 5: Songs on Replay. Which song was your favorite?

English or Dutch?

I've been thinking about writing my blog in Dutch from now on. I thought my English was better, but when it comes to explaining beauty products or filming I really do notice I hardly know any words I really need to say.

Blogging in Dutch isn't that bad. Especially since I only have 4 subscribers at the moment and I guess they're all Dutch. I just feel like I can explain a little bit better and this will make it easier. Also, most of the products I buy are only available in Holland or Germany.

Let me know what you guys think!

Some new things

Here are some things I wanted to show you. Bought these nailcare products a while ago and they are definetly very usefull!


I went to a local drugstor "Etos" and found out they sell Revlon products. I've never seen an Etos that sells Revlon, not even in my area, not even in Rotterdam, so I was really excited to see this! Secretly tried out this polish and it's freaking good!



Bought this nail polish corrector, which is really convenient! Whenever I spill some nail polish on my finger tips, this tool easily gets it off! And it was only €2 or €3!



And these little thingies, PERFECT if you want to do a french manicure. I hardly ever do, but these nail tip strips are sure good to have in your stash!

Have you ever heard of Revlon products and do they sell it in your area? Let me know!

Catrice Cosmetics Sydney Palette

I've seen a lot of Dutch bloggers, blogging about the 4 palette's Catrice developed. 
I checked it out at our local Kruidvat and the Sydney Collection was my favorite, so I decided to get it for €6,99.



Totally love the packaging, so that's a big plus!



The colors are absolutely gorgeous. They are not that pigmented, which I find perfect! My favorite side is the brown side, especially Harbour Bridge is absolutely gorgeous!

L.T.R: Sydney Aquarium - The Rocks - Royal Botanic Garden - Town Hall - Harbour Bridge - Bondi Beach


The two blushes, Opera House and Taronga Zoo.



Also comes with a little Köhl pencil and an applicator. The eye pencil is pretty good, pretty excited about this one!




Little stories and a picture how to apply the eyeshadow, ofcourse I don't follow these rules ;-) Overall I really like this palette, the eyeshadows do crease on their own so make sure you use a good eyeshadow base. I'll post a blogpost with both looks soon. Enjoy your week!

Sorting Things Out #1

Long time no see! Haven't blogged in such a long time. I was really ill these past weeks and while I still went to school and worked, I just couldn't take the time to blog. Today I also skipped school because I have a headache, but just couldn't help myself. Need... to....blog.... haha



So this is actually gonna be a small "series" kind of blog. I'm going to show you how I clean my room, or in this case, my bathroom cabinet. Along with some tips, I hope this will be very interesting! As you can see from the picture above, this is my unorganised bathroom cabinet. Everything is every where, can't even reach the back. So I thought it was time to clean. Next some pictures of how it was:








Easiest thing to do: Take everything out, check to see if you own something you don't need or isn't good anymore. If you did, it should look something like this in your cabinet!



Empty never felt this good, right? I also cleaned this cabinet with water and soap, because there was body lotion and shampoo everywhere...


New order downside: Everything I need in the shower. I did put my Zwitsal body lotion below because it didn't fit anywhere else. So here I can grab everything I need in the shower, hairmask, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion.

In the middle we can find everything for the face. Scrub, toothbrush, face gel etc. On the right are things my boyfriend uses when he stays over.

And on the top: Everything for tha body. Bodylotion, body scrub, you name it! You probably might wonder where my deodorant is, but I actually keep that in my room, because I often forget to put it on when it's not in my room.



So this was #1 of my : Sorting Things Out series. Hope you'll stay tuned for the next one!

OOTD 18-10-2011

Today I took an old favorite out of my closet. A shirt I bought at the H&M in a city called Alkmaar. A year ago. I did wear it occasional but it made me look bigger than I was so I refused to wear it when I found out (would you continue wearing something when you know it makes you look fat?) But since I lost a few pounds I decided to wear it again, and surprise! It still makes me look bigger but now I really don't care. I just want to wear this shirt.


So this is the shirt, it's extremely comfortable and warm. Especially good to wear with the weather we're having now in Holland. Since it was a year ago I can't remember the price, and I don't know if they still sell this, I guess now Winter is coming this item would become more popular.


Compared it with these baggy jeans I bought at Duncan & Brown for 80,- but because I had a coupon I bought it for 50,- and ofcourse my cute Hello Kitty slippers my boyfriend bought for me at Van Haren, so I don't know the price.


Bought these earrings a while ago but I don't remember where O.O



I kept this look really cosy and used my Jumbo Pencil from Sephora in brown, which I've been loving these days.

What's your favorite thing to wear when it's getting colder outside?
Have a good week xoxo

My Inspiration #1

Everyone has someone (or something) that inspires them, to keep them motivated at what they do. For me, I have two idols, two people I look up to. Read this blogpost to see who they are!



First of all, my #1 Idol; Seo In Young. I got to know her because I was watching a Korean variety program called "We Got Married". In this show, 2 popular Korean idols pretend as if they are married. They are filmed day and night to see how they react to each other, and if they can really put up with their imaginary marriage. Seo Inyoung was "together" with Korean/American rapper "Crown J".


When they decided to "divorce" I tried to find out more about Seo Inyoung. So I came across a Korean girl-group called Jewelry, containing 4 girls, including Inyoung. I also saw she went solo and was busy with the release of her second mini album "Elly", which is her nickname. She released a MV called Cinderella and of course I had to check it out. It might not be your style, but check it out below!



I really like her style. She's outgoing, confident, she is hilarious at some times and she's an amazing singer. I couldn't get enough of her and until today, I'm still a big fan of her.


Second, Narsha. She's a singer from the girl group "Brown Eyed Girls" and recently made a comeback with their "Sixth Sense" album. She is always so pretty, vibrant and has the most amazing style you can imagine. She goes well with all kinds of haircuts (the 2nd picture is actually a wig) and her make-up is flawless. I became a fan of Brown Eyed Girls since their song "How Come" from 2008 but actually fell in love with Narsha after their song "SIGN" from 2009/2010. Her real name is Park Hyo Jin and Narsha actually means "To Fly".


Narsha also went solo for a while and released an album. Above you can see her shine in the MV for "삐리빠빠" [bbiri bba bba]
So ofcourse I can keep talking about these wonderful girls but you probably don't even like what I'm interested in so I'll leave it to this.

Have a wonderful week!
