I saw this silver photo frame on sale and I couldn’t resist. First of all because it was now only €3,30 when it used to be €13,50 and secondly because it looks incredibly cute!
I bought this at Paperchase in the Bijenkorf, a store in store, just like a MAC counter inside a department store. Paperchase is a UK-based company which specializes in cute stationary, cards, gift-wrap and random things you just want to have. It’s a great place to buy original gifts. Paperchase is available in the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, the Netherlands (in de Bijenkorf) and in Dubai. They do have a webshop and they ship internationally. You might want to check their site: http://www.paperchase.co.uk/.

NOTD: Seventeen 266 with Essence Nail Art Twin in 02 Julia
When I was at Liza's I also painted my nails with one of her nail polishes she bought in Greece and I couldn't resist adding an accent on my ring finger. The polishes I used were Seventeen’s 266 (a neon purple with a cream finish) and Essence's Nail Art Twins in 02 Julia (a silver with multi-colour duo chrome glitter topcoat). I really like this combination of bright-in-your-face purple and silver glitter. I also just really love accent nails.
The 266 by Seventeen was opaque in just two coats, and when I was applying the Esscen glitter topcoat I thought I would hate it. It looked really thick and not a whole lot of glitter came off, but I could quite easily add a bit more glitter and it was dry sooner than I thought. Now I actually really love the polish because it doesn’t feel al rough when you touch the nail, which you sometimes have with glitter polishes and I hate that. This one actually feels quite smooth. I really love this look, at work today this little boy kept staring at my nails and told me they were pretty! So cute!
What about you, do you like accent nails?

Catrice Absolute Eye colour 180 Ocean's 14 review
Hi everyone,
Today I will do a review on the navy blue eyeshadow by Catrice in 180 Ocean's 14 .
The color is quite dark as you can see on the pictures below.
I have bought 3 colours of the collection and all I can say is that I am very pleased with them.
The quality and pigementation are very high, and definitely long-lasting. I was wearing the navy smokey look yesterdaynight when I went for a drink with a friend. When I came home and looked in the mirror, everything was still in place.
I can't wait to purchase more colors from this line. (another + : they have a huge color range!)
Price/quality: Normally the eyeshadows cost €2,75 which I think is very inexpensive for such good quality!You can now buy 2 eyeshadows for only €4,00 at the Kruidvat.
You can find the navy blue smokey look Kelly did on me here: http://things4her.blogspot.com/2011/02/eotd-navy-blue-smoky-eye.html
Im am still looking for the perfect navy blue though..
If you have any recommandations please let me know!:)
<3 Liza

Trend watch: Flower earring (Summer 2011)
Spotted: Amazingly cute statement flower earring on Gigi Ravelli (a Dutch actress, who plays Lorena on the Dutch soap Goede Tijden, Slechte Tijden or GTST). I don’t watch the show, but my sister does. I already saw someone at work with one flower earring and now one of my friends, Lisanne said she wants one for her Birthday.
They want to set a trend by just wearing one big extravagant earring, but of course you can wear two if you want to. Dutch actresses Gigi Ravelli and Marly van der Velden have an official site where you can order them: http://www.kuisemeisjes.nl/. There are probably more webshops where you can order them. If you think they’re too expensive and you’re creative you can also quite easily make them youself.
Like it? Love it? Hate it? Why?
Will you give this trend a try?

I definitely want give this trend a try, but I can’t decide yet on just buying one or making one myself. I’ll let you know what I did when I made up my mind ;-)

EOTD: Navy Blue Smokey Eye
So like you've probably already read in the last post, Liza and I came together today and did each others make-up. On Liza I did a navy blue smokey eye because she wanted to try-out her new eyeshadow. She will do a review on the eyeshadow soon.
Products used: Etos Eyeshadow base, Lancôme Crayon Khôl Noir 1, Catrice Absolute Eye Colour 180 Ocean's 14, Essence Quattro Eyeshadow 01 Ciao Bella (darkest brown), Bourjois Trio D'ombres Les Bruns Cuivres 41, Essence Black Liquid eyeliner, Estée Lauder Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara.

I think this really goes well with her green eyes. It's not too heavy and you can add extra drama to the look by adding false lashes. Hope you like this look.
