Hey guys,

quick haul update. Went shopping today to get the worst edge off from boredom. Again, everything I found and liked, was from H&M. I know this will be a post with only a few words, but I need to go study again. Lets get started!
~

1. #nofilter sleeveless top, 19,95 e
2. High waist denim shorts, 19,95 e
3. Gold stud bracelet, 7,95 e
4. Flower headband, 4,95 e
5. Creme colored chiffon blouse, 10 euro ( on sale product )


~


The actual reason I ended up shopping here, was because it was the only place with high waist denim shorts that didn't make me look like I was heavier than I was. Also, the obvious hashtag shirt. It's so ironic and funny, mostly because I filter the shit out of my Instagram photos #noshame. 





~


There it is, all butch-y and manly! I actually deeply love sleeveless tops, but they tend to make me look like a man. And that's okay.






~


This is my classy chiffon shirt, paired with the new bracelet as well. The color is actually more pinkish than it seems in the pictures. In the upper one it's like a grayish color, and in the lower one it seems like a tan color. Oh the wonders of a crappy camera.


Here's the last outfit pair, with the shirt I got back whenever, and the denim shorts I got. In the selfie there's the hairband as well, obviously. I really like both of them, especially when the shorts don't make my legs look fat as hell. Yay for not fat legs. Last picture is a close-up on the flower headband and the bracelet I got.


And here we are, with the last of my haul update. I'm sorry for the short post, but that's what happens when you're busy, sigh. I love you guys, thanks for reading,stay classy!

Hey again,


I bet you people must be exhausted and fed up with hauls.. Well guess what? I have a super-mega-ultra-haul for you today! I spent buttload of money shopping with my ma for summer, since I had a list of things that I needed. The list was relatively short, consisting only of:
a brown belt with a gold buckle
a maxi skirt
skirts
shorts
a summer dress

and that was that. We went out around 12 AM, only aiming for a couple of shops.. And we ended up being out for 2 and a half hours, and spent too much money. And by too much I mean too. freaking. much. Either way, this post will be picture heavy again, so be warned. 


~


The ones who have read my blog for some time now, know what kind of a taste in clothes I have. But, I do have a more bohemian side to myself, when it comes to summer clothing. I love soft colors and girly prints as well as textures, but I never really got anything of that sort, before now. It's limiting to own a dog with black fur, as it is to own a dog with white fur. You can choose between constant brushing of clothes or just following the current fur color with your clothing. Most of my wardrobe is black, I won't deny it, but in this haul, I have only a few items in darker colors. I kind of changed my whole look in a single shopping spree. How fun. Below is a full shot of all the things that I bought.

1. White bohemian top - 39,95 euro, Lindex
2. Black loose shorts - 24,95, Vero Moda
3. Lucy NW super slim jeans in the color medium blue/ripped - 69,95 euro, Vero Moda
4. Black floral print tube scarf - 12,95 euro, Vero Moda
5. Brown leather belt . 19,95 euro, Vero Moda
6. Three pairs of panties and a bra, all in the price of one + two sets of socks, Lindex
( Prices : 5,95 for each panty separately, bra 9,95, socks 5,95 )
7. White oversized wool cardigan - 34,95 euro originally, got 70 % off and paid 10 euro, Lindex
8. Burgundy flanel shirt - 24,95 euro, H&M


~


We started off at Lindex, where I usually just go shopping for underwear. I'm running short on those as well, since my puppy has a thing for socks and, well, panties and bra. Not going to include a better picture of them, since that's just absurd. I was super positively surprised, when I found a cardigan I immediately loved, and 70% off! I usually never find stuff here, since it's not really supplied on my demand. Then I ran into this adorable top, that has an oval neckline, a button in the back of the neck, frills and lacing.. I just had to have it. I didn't even bother to try it on, which bothered me the rest of the day before I could try it on.


Here's the top paired with the ripped skinny jeans I bought from Vero Moda. It really has this urban bohemic/indian look to it.. Missing a pair of moccasins, heh. The top is super cute, as I said. And I'm highly aware that you can see my bra through it. Get a good look boys, it'll be the most boob you'll see today *slowclap*. 


~


And here's the cardigan paired with my new belt and the outfit before this one. I loooove this cardigan, it's super warm and it actually fits with everything else I bought. 


~


After Lindex, we headed to H&M, in the hopings of a few new skirts or so. Sadly, H&M disappointed me this time, only providing me with a plead shirt I'm going to use for hot summer days as a kind of a jacket.

The print can't be seen in this lightning, since the burgundy color this piece is in, is so damn dark. 


~


After the disappointing H&M trip, we visited Vero Moda that is kind of next door from H&M. There, I got lucky several times. I got the jeans I used with my cute top, and a pair of black loose shorts, a belt I wore in the cardigan picture and a floral scarf!

I had to pair the shorts with a few old items, but I think they are pretty edgy and fitting with most of my wardrobe. I'm just not that fond of showing bare leg-skin, I think it's relatively immodest. The scarf I just fell in love with, since y'know, I love floral print'n'shit.


~


The last thing I got, that is not included in the haul picture, is a pair of jogging sneakers from Sportia for 99,00 euro. They were pretty basic, but really necessary since I don't own a pair and I needed them for doggy walks and such.


~

And that's all. I feel exhausted, my legs are cramping from all the walking, and now my fingers are cramping from all this writing and editing. Kudos to me for achieving so much today! I won't be giving you guys a selca though, since my face looks terrifying today. Love y'all, keep yerselves classy <3.

Hey y'all,

I'm back with updates. I have been busy with studying for my university exams on June 3rd, just nomming my way through my book with a variety of highlighters. Planning on writing the highlighted parts in a notebook and then making some charts.. Lots of work still waiting for me. Anyway, I came here promising updates. Which basicly is a haul update of the last week. My ebay orders arrived, one by one ( still missing one bracelet set, awaiting for it eagerly ). Sadly, the leggings were not top quality, and I had to abandon them, woe is me! Everything else though, passed with flying colors. I'm going to include a few pictures, for your pleasure only.


~


Here's a overall look of what I have gotten during the past week or so. From left to right,
woven leather bracelet with a golden snitch and a heart from eBay, L´oréal Paris Nail polish top coat, name Disco Ball from Sokos ( you can find it in here ), two bottles of L´oréal Paris Nail polish shade 602 'Perle De Jade' from Sokos ( you can find it in here),BC Bonacure hairtherapy oil miracle finishing treatment from Sokos ( you can find it from your local well supplied malls as well as places like eBay ), L´oréal Paris Nail polish top coat, name 'Gold Leaf' from Sokos ( you can find it in here ) and lastly, but not least, black metal cross bracelet from eBay. 


~


As you can see, most of these items were bought from a shop named Sokos, which is a supermarket near us, providing us with groceries as well as beauty supplies and all variety of clothing. It's pretty close to where I live, so that's where we usually go. Also, I've been hunting the Gold leaf- top coat forever, after seeing it on a magazine ad. All the nail polishes were cheap, just 7 euro. With the top coats, be reminded that Gold leaf has actual gold leaflets in it, and they tend to get stuck on clothing. They also are a pain in the ass to remove, as well as the Disco ball top coat, no matter how much of normal polish you have under them. They are well worth the effort though, since they last long and make a dull nail look exciting. Now more about the Perle De Jade one... It's like a pastel mint green, and I absolutely fell in love with this one. The color fits me, when mint green never does, the coat doesn't really wear out, lasts over a week on you or more.. I just love it. I had to get two, since I'm afraid I'll run out. I already used half of the first bottle, trying on all variety of top coats with it. I came into a conclusion, that the Disco ball top coat featured here makes for an awesome dip dyed nail with Perle De Jade. I really do recommend getting any of them. Here's a picture of the Perle De Jade on my nails.

For the hair treatment oil, I really needed one. There's two volumes of these, a lighter one and a thicker one. I've had a sample bottle of the lighter one, that has maybe two tablespoons of liquid in it, and it lasted me for several months. You really don't need a lot of it in your hair, and with my thick hair, around two pea-sized drops did it. The liquid reduces the frizz on your hair to zero, gives incredible shine and doesn't make your hair feel oily at all. I needed to buy a bigger bottle of this, and it's quite expensive.. Luckily, Sokos had a sale day on hair products, and I found this half priced. I consulted one of the merchants, and we came into a conclusion that I needed the thicker version of this. It works just the same, except that you need even less of it than you needed to lighter one. If your hair texture is naturally coarse, or you just suffer from all around problems with electric, uncontrollable, matted hair.. Try this. Your problems will be solved.

The bracelets didn't disappoint.. Kinda. As I previously stated, my wrists and hands are ridiculously small, so I had problems with bracelets falling off. These two weren't any different. Luckily the rings on the metallic black bracelet were big enough for the lock to fit through them, and I shortened it that way. The braided one, I don't even know how I managed to shorten it, but I kind of stretched the hoops and .. Stuff happened. Either way, they fit! And I love both of them. Here's a closeup.



~


Another thing that I bought, that has been out for a while is...



Ta-dah! Dark Souls 2 <3. I loved the first one, even if I never got really far in it, but the level of aggression it produces is nearly hilarious. Since this blog isn't about gaming, I'm just going to narrow it down to saying, that the game is at least as good as the first one. It is also easier than the first one, but will have you rage quitting numerous times either way. Well worth the money spent. 


~


Anyway, this was a quick haul update. Just to be clear, I also received my hair colors, they had nothing wrong with them, and I will post more about them next month when I start my hair project! Complimentary selca in the end, keep yourselves classy bros and broettes.

Hey again community,

I'm trying to post more frequently now. Making up for the lost time etcetera etcetera. After the trip to hospital, I've been feeling really down, not really talkative, can't even text my friends because I simply don't feel like it. What usually helps me is being materialistic, which I certainly have been during the last week or so. Since I have no freaking idea when my ebay stuff will arrive, I'll just list what I ordered now, and make a real life picture collage once they are here. I also visited H&M store yesterday, just to take the edge off from the worst anxiety. 


~


Lets start with Ebay
Everybody must know by now how extremely inexpensive it is to order from Ebay. I rarely do, since I don't always trust the quality ( or I'm just simply THAT broke ). Now that I had some extra money, and I needed to buy essentials, I figured that why not order some jewelry and such. My essentials were 2 containers of LA Riché Directions semi-dye in the color of Carnation Pink.
I'm starting my hair project in May, as in bleaching the living fuck out of it and then diluting the said pink to pastel and just go with that. I'm trying to create a more peachy pink than baby pink, so I wont be going white blonde, just more like pastel orange-y. The reason why I bought two containers, was because I simply don't want to run out. I only need around a tbl spoon of color into a few dl of conditioner, so two containers of this dye should last me quite a while. I could've ordered these from Finland, but sadly the price was 9 euro per container + shipping fees, and when bought from ebay, it was only 3 euro per container plus 4 euro shipping. So you see, I saved a few bucks! Lets just hope they arrive in pristine shape, sometimes the containers might get mushed, but the dealer will happily replace them.


~


Next things that I got were three sets of bracelets. I've gone crazy over handwear, like rings and bracelets, and one can never have enough of them, am I right? So I bought two sets that contain four different braided bracelets and a single metallic black crossbracelet.


I got these two at a price of 1.50 euro! Also, free shipping. Even if they aren't top quality, I won't feel bad, given the super low price. I've seen these sets floating around Instagram for quite a while now, dreaming of my own set, but not really searching for any. I just happened to stumble upon these two, searching for metallic cross bracelets. First off, most of these bracelets are BID ONLY on ebay, and I won't bid higher than 1 euro. I lost a few bids, and then in the lower bar that has suggestions, I noticed these two, with a 'buy now' sign. I had spent at least two hours trying to find sets like these that could be bought at once, with no luck, and then these two popped up. I consider myself lucky.

This is the third simple bracelet I could find, that had a cross on it. I've been searching for these, but my everlasting problem is, that my wrist size is below average, and everything that isn't for, lets say, anorexic Asians, will slide right off. It's always such a hassle to shorten the chain, so I rather not buy any bracelets without trying them on... But this one had a short chain, so there shouldn't be any problems with it. Also, the braided ones, are adjustable to some extent.


~


The last thing I got, was a 4 euro pair of leggings with free shipping. For some reason I've never had any problems with leggings and tights when ordering online, as long as they are stretchy, so I got this pair with floral print on them.
They are pretty basic, black stretchy material with a rustic, old floral pattern ( which I happen to love ). Even if they don't necessarily fit, the price was so low I really wouldn't mind. Of course it would be lovely if they did, since I fell in love with the print.

~

That was my incoming ebay haul. I have absolutely no idea when to expect things to arrive, maybe a couple of weeks or so, but I'm a patient woman when it comes to the things I have already purchased. Next up, is the small haul I bought from H&M.

There isn't much to see here, since what I bought was essentials again. I've been meaning to buy a pair of simple black cotton leggings, since the only black leggings I have are either for working out, or just that kind of material that makes tops slide upwards... No can do. I found a low-priced pair, for 7.95 euro from the alternative clothing section, and next to them were simple black tops, another thing I've been meaning to buy! A lot of my clothes tend to be either black or white, but I've only had white and gray undertops to go with them, so finding these two was great. The top was 9.95 euro, and I didn't even notice when I bought it, but when I put it on, the top is apparently a shaping top, as in it hugs my figure and compresses it. There's also a double layer of fabric in your armpit and over the side of your breast, to press them together more? I don't know, it was a pleasant surprise. Even the top straps, that are actually really loose, are extremely comfortable. Best top, evurrrrrr. 



~


To match them, I bought a white t-shirt, because I'm running low on plain t-shirts. I mean, I threw a lot of them away, since well.. They were old and my lady assets grew, stuff happened, puberty, y'know.. BOOBS... I needed a new t-shirt, m'kay? It's nothing big, just a little oversized and makes me feel good inside and all dat. Reminds me a little of Guns'n'Roses for some reason, might be the design. Either way, here's a picture.



~


And the last thing that I bought, is my favorite as of now. I've been meaning to buy a necklace, that has that ringmail feel to it, and also a necklace with triangles, or shark teeth or such.. Well, I found one that has both. FOR 7 EURO! I was super stoked when I found it, and it was in gold, which is probably the only thing I use as of late. It's pretty heavy, adjustable in lenght.. But the only problem is that the two chains tend to overlap in the most uncomfortable way, but its easily fixable, so I don't mind at all. 


Isn't it pretty? Ah, H&M has a way to cater my needs. Either way, this was my haul this week, hope you enjoyed it. Going to attach a selca in the end, for your pleasure. Stay classy!
