China Glaze Hunger Games Collection: Colours from the Capitol

Hey everyone!!!


I was so excited to find out that China Glaze finally announced that they are releasing the Colours of the Capitol nail polish Collection. They have partnered with studio powerhouse Lionsgate and they will debut the collection along with the new Hunger Games film in March 2012.





The inspiration for this collection was the most lavish part of the nation of Panem, the Capitol. I have read all Hunger Games books and I definately want to watch the movie. I really like the colours by what I have already seen and I'd like to try some of them, especially Fast Track. The collection is still in development though, but in January there will be more information out about it.



Do you like the new Hunger Games Collection? Have you read the Hunger Games trilogy?

What to get HER for Christmas!

Hey everyone!

I felt like doing a holiday gift guide because I was in such a festive mood the past days. These are just some ideas for gifts you can buy your best friend, mother, sister or girlfriend!


1. Skull scarf, Alexander McQueen
2. Top handle shoulder bag, Miu Miu
3. Awear pull on trim pull on hat, ASOS
4. Pajama pants, Jack Wills
5. Ugg boots
6. Petal to the Metal wallet, Marc Jacobs
7. Jelly Collection watch, Loisir
8. Leather belt, Moschino

I really like all these gift options. Scarves are the best clothing gift for winter, as are the Ugg boots. They are so warm and cosy! Mark Wills also does some of the most comfy pajama pants I have worn. A good watch is essential for everyone and Loisir has very pretty collections right now. It's a brand I discovered last year and I totally love their watches.

1. Addicted to Rose kit, Korres
2. Get started kit, bareminerals 
3. Complete brush kit without roll, Sigma
4. Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System
5. Pink Orchid Limited Edition Styler set, ghd
6. Naked2 Palette, Urban Decay
7. Winter Care kit, Macadamia
8. Best of the Best, OPI
9. The Body, Burberry
10. Birchbox

These are some choices for a girl that loves to play with make up and loves beauty products but also a girl who is now starting to explore makeup. A brush kit from Sigma would be such a nice present, they are really good quality brushes. MAC also releases mini brush kits every year, which are also very good. An amazing gift would be a Clarisonic MIA, every girl wants her face clean and refreshed. Also, a great gift that is already made for you, is one of the subscription boxes like Birchbox. There are usually 5 beauty related products in the box, some of them full size, some sample size. These boxes don't yet get delivered to Greece, but Feelunique is going to do a Europe delivery of their Beauty box soon.


1. iPhone case
2. Kindle touch, Amazon
3. NEX-3 camera, Sony
4. Digital photo frame, LG
5. Wii Fit, Nintendo


Electronic gifts are always fun! A case for her phone would be a nice little fashion accessory that can match her outfits and personal style. For the book worms, a Kindle touch is a good choice, and what girl doesn't like a fuschia camera or photo frame? :)

1. Bracelet, Pandora
2. Bubble gold acetate necklace, J.Crew
3. Gold pleated coctail ring, Kenneth Jay Lane
4. Silver and onyx earrings, Chan Luu
5. Chain bracelet, Forever 21
6. Bow ring, ASOS

Diamonds are the best girl's friend indeed. This would be a rather personal gift, so you have to be careful. A great option for a jewelry present, is a Pandora bracelet. These can be extremely expensive, but they are so beautiful! Chan Luu does some amazing jewelry also, there are some pieces of his collection now on net-a-porter that I love. Great stocking filler is Forever 21 or ASOS jewelry which look nice on and every piece is very affordable.




I also love Yankee candles for Christmas presents, they smell amazing and they last a really long time!
I haven't found them anywhere in Greece but in Public stores, which are technology/book stores (strange...)


Do you like shopping for Christmas presents?

Tag: 8 most worn things for fall

Hey everyone!

I have been MIA for such a long time, I know... When life takes over there's nothing you can do!
So I'm back for good now!

I recently discovered Vicky's blog . She's a greek beauty blogger herself and her blog is great! 
You should definately check it out.
Vicky tagged me to write about my 8 most worn things for fall and decided to do it. 
Some of them are all-year-round favorites. Sooooo, here they are!!


MOST WORN LIPSTICK/LIPGLOSS

Angel by MAC is an all-time favorite of mine. 
It's a light pink shade that I can wear all day and look put together.
I prefer wearing Cremesheen lipsticks (hello, I have driest skin/lips ever?) but this one although it's frost,  
feels very nice on my lips, it's such a beautiful color and looks effortlessly chic and elegant.






MOST WORN JEWELRY

This Swarovski pendant was a birthday gift from my boyfriend few years ago.
 I wear it almost every day after I got it. Adorable!



MOST WORN SHIRT(?)

I don't wear shirts. I like them but I don't prefer to wear them so much.
So I made a teeny alteration on this tag, to most worn t-shirt.

I got this DKNY tee so long ago I can't even remember, but I still love it and wear it mostly every fall.
It has the cutest logo and this shade of gray is the best for my complexion.




MOST WORN NAILPOLISH

I got Essie Luxedo on this month's issue of greek Marie Claire (along with 3 other ones, hah)
It's a very deep plum, almost black.




MOST WORN SHOES

My Stradivarius boots! Love them! 
I wear them with skinny jeans or leggings and they look amazing on.




MOST WORN HAIR PRODUCT

About a year ago, after all the hype on Youtube about argan oil, I decided to try Orofluido.
Some of you may know it, it's similar to Moroccan and Macadamia oil.
HG stuff. This is the second bottle I purchase. Had saved my hair last fall and still use it. Loooove!




MOST WORN PERFUME

Attraction by Lancome. Sadly this has been discontinued, but it's my fav for fall/winter time.




MOST WORN HANDBAG

Primark bag which I got in May in London. Rediscovered in October and reloved!




I tag each and everyone of you to do this tag. It's so fun!
