Good Life! ♥

T's back!
I haven't been blogging in almost 30 days - oops..
In my defence I can say that I've been through so many things in such a short period, that I really didn't have the time to blog, sorry!

But now I'm back in the game, and I could start by giving u a quick update of my life atm!

So I had my big exams and I did good. they were over on the 26th of March, and oh how we partied on that day...

My outfit was inspired by the American flag haha ♥ we had fun!

The star top // GinaTricot & The flower mini // Miss Selfridge

Then after the exams I had 6 days (and nights) to do 12 A3 drawings to apply to schools. I applied to three unis, all for fashiondesign!
Here's imo the best one: a Fruitbowl (and the bowl in the picture is Iittalas Aalto-bowl)
(the instructions were: "draw a bowl with a banana, an avocado, a pear and an orange." So I did..:

Then I also spent a week in Lapland, partied, went shopping (several times) and...

Took a tattoo! ♥♥♥♥♥

... Now I'll have to go, but I'll be back in a bit and I'll let you see it then!

Kisses, T.

Prints and Pretty things

Aloha! ♥
Haha Yesterday I had my first ever doubledate! And well.. I only have 1 picture of that night. So u can imagine how it went;

Probably the weirdest date I've ever had. But the whole doubledating thing is actually a lot easier than just meeting a guy 1 on 1. 'cause there's 4 ppl to keep the conversation alive. It was quite fun...

...But I just realised sometime ago what I want. I don't need loads of male attention or flings. I'm a girlfriend kinda girl. Videogames, stupid inside jokes and most of all Love. I'm done with games.
... wow that was deep!

Anyways, Today I was cleaning my closet and I realised that it has been taken over by  Printed Tees. I love tops and T's with funny texts And I decided to show you my favourite prints out of my closet. Inspired by that I also gave my nails a cute text!

Bises = "Kisses" in French ♥

My Mom also got me these roses today;

They're So Pink ♥

Oww otherwise I've just been studying the whole day, so nothing cool to tell you.. Here's a few evidental pictures (as an evidence to my existance - Still alive!) Yep. Oh and the 'Boston College' Large T-shirt (...dress) Is from Victorias Secret ♥

Hope You Had a Lovely Day Too ♥

L♥VE, T.

The "Fairwell Winter" Treatment for Hair, Skin and Feet! ♥

In the Wintertime you get pale and your skin goes really dry. It's like someone would've squeezed all the colour from you. Especially if you live in a cold place! (so you from Brasil can stop reading here haha!)

Today I've made myself this treatment that prepares you for the summer - Physically and Mentally. Afterwards you will feel SO GOOD! ♥

The whole thing will take about an hour, and I'll instuck you step by step.

Hair
The coldness of the winter makes your skin dry - this includes your scalp. It's easy to give your hair it's natural glow back:
1th generously apply normal bodylotion (choose a gentle one without fragrances) to you scalp and virgin Oliveoil to the ends of ur hair. This should leave your hair looking the dirtiest it has ever been, but it works miracles. Let this "hairmask" be for like 10-30 minutes, and then wash it off with shampoo and conditioner. You should also leave the conditioner in for like 5-10 minutes.
After the shower your hair feels really soft. Now you should apply a heat protection and blow dry your hair. The heat of the blowdryer will actually activate the growth of your hair, and as long as you're wearing the heat protection it won't harm the hair.
After the blowdryer I personally use the staightener. So before using it, you shold reapply the heat protection OR a hair serum as I do.
Ps. if you're aiming to grow your hair longer, massaging the scalp will help too 'cause it activates the bloodcirculation.

Skin
Like you applied the oliveoil into your hair, you should also apply it to the dryest spots of your skin (face, hands, elbows..) and leave it to absorb.
Then when you're showering and washing off the stuff from your hair and skin, you should gently peel the skin. This will remove the dead skincells, which will also remove the greyish colour winter often brings.
After the shower remember to put on the bodylotion. To boost up the summer look I apply Dove's Summer Glow. It gives a naturel sunkissed look and hydrates! ♥ Win-Win!

Feet
Girls always talk about needing a pedicure before the summer, 'cause you can't possibly wear sandals with the ugly winter toes. Well, you can do the pedicure yourself and save your money!
So, to start off you should use the footfile while in the shower. Thisway the skin is soft and easy to file.
When you've gotten off the shower apply lotion and take a soft magic buffer to file the nails and the skin around them. Use also the smoothening side of the file on the top of the nail.
Then remove the cuticles (!!) and apply generously a very thick healing balsam. I use this stuff called bepanthen which is meant for small cuts, scrathes and rashes.
Leave the balsam to absorb while you for example are blow drying ur hair.

To polish up - Add a cute, colourful nailpolish on your toenails avoiding the dark and gloomy colours.

Yay my summer feet haha! Nailpolish // Depend, Sandals // Office Girl

If you're doing similar treatments in a Girl's Night In, you can throw in some homemade masks and manicures. ♥♥

XOXO, T♥

Happy birthday, Mom ♥

Today's my moms Birthday, and she turned (ummm..?) 54? ... Probably. Gosh I'm bad at these things.

Anyways! As a gift I gave her these three 30x30cm paintings made entirely by me...

I don't know what happened to the quality of the photos..

Also eventho today's Wednesday I've been asked to go to a bar already 2 times! What the hell is wrong with these ppl? haha!
I guess we're now booking flight to Malta for August. Not sure with who, when and why (..like I would need a reason to go to Malta) but definitely going. Also booking flights to Paris for next Christmas ♥ I'm going there alone with S (my bestfriend). ♥


I've been searching for a cute cellphone case for my Nokia N8, but apparently I should have an Iphone..

...L♥VE !
If anyone knows where I could buy/order a cute (with a capital C) phone case (for N8), let me know!

Kisses Tara ♥

Party girls never rest.

My apologies for such a long pause in blogging!
I had an awesome weekend with my friend Emmi. We had a girls night out with sushi and clubbing, and I met this guy (let's call him 'A'.) I was supposed to meet him today over a coffee.. But I kinda didn't go. I don't know why.. He just wasn't the one, you know the feeling? I'm not gonna waste time on guys that I know I could never fall for. Simple.

Here are some pics of the weekend. The sushi was from a supermarket and tbh it tasted really odd! It tasted like red meat. And I'm a semi-vegetarian haha!

Then the girls got ready... (btw sry for accidentally showing so much skin in that sushi pic.. oops.)

MY gosh! I look so bitchy!

I also had these super party nails;

...Inspired by these;

..& My favourite partysong at the moment is definitely Flo Rida and SIA's Wild Ones. ♥♥

Hopefully they'll play this at the Zumba! I'm off to the gym! Ciao! ♥ xx

Flower Girl.

My day started with a byjama-breakfast study session with my sister. I'm studying for the finals and she's doing a project for her studies with journalism. She lives in Lapland, North-Finland (near the arctic circle..!) and when she comes home for a visit, we spend a lot of time together: Like last night, when we spent like 6 hours playing monopoly (yes, we're 18 and 22..) and I won!!
1-0 to little sisters! ♥

Then we went to visit our granparents.
Here's what I wore today..

Lace top // Ginatricot (I had a H&M basic white top underneath it..) rose skirt // H&M

The sun was shining again today!
I guess spring is finally on it's way! ♥
