DIY spotted sleeves

Hello, girls! Here is my "diy" on how i did this polka dot shirt. It`s very easy to make and the most challenging part is to find the right material for the sleeves. I bought my in the local fabric store by chance. Well...let`s get started.
(...and i`m sorry for an extreme serious face on all pictures :)


1. First thing you gonna need is a basic and cheep t-shirt , like mine from H&M. I bought a tonne of them in black and white colors! Not only they are a great piece to have in your wardrobe (should i say " a must have"?), but also great for different DIY`s.  (I`m already made 3 different ones!)


2. Then obviously you gonna need your fabric for sleeves. As i said i was extremely lucky to find the one i have. And i hope you can easily find fabric you want in your local fabric store.

3. When you have a t-shirt and the fabric, you gonna need a pattern of your sleeves. I get mine from my mom`s sewing magazine. I can't really explain how to make this pattern from zero, but i hope pictures are self-explanatory.  


4. Now cut the same pattern from your fabric, don't forget to leave few extra cm of it for sewing.

5. The last and easiest part of this DIY is sew your sleeves to the t-shirt. I used sewing machine , but you can also do it by hand.

I hope i explained everything good enough, if you still have some questions leave them in the comments below and i do my best to answer them. I'd love to hear a feedback from you. :)

Hugs & Kisses.

berry lips step by step

Hello, everyone! I really like this trend on berry lips. The most popular lipstick for this look is M.A.C. "rebel". But you can use whatever berry lipstick you have, like i did. Here is my technique:


1. Prime your lips. (i use "beauty base eyeshadow primer" by Lumene, wich one works for lips just as good as for eyes)

2./3. Cover any redness around your lips with concealer, it also will provide your lipstick from smudging. (i use M.A.C. studio finish concealer in nc20)

4. Fill your lips with red lipliner. (i use PUPA true lips 07, this is the best red lipliner i ever used, but it may be hard to find)

5. If you made any mistakes, clean them up with your concealer or qtip.

6. And now time for your favorite berry lipstick. (i use Max Factor colour perfection 920 - Aubergine, have it for a long long time and never actually use, but it`s pretty wine red color with purple undertone)

8. Don't forget a trick with the finger, if you don't want your lipstick get on your teeth.

9. And voila! a perfect matte burgundy lips that so in this season!

home sweet home

Hello, lovebirds.
Lately i went a bit crazy over decorating my place. So yesterday i bought few things for home in the local home suply store, here they are:


 I adore this cute straw basket wich i found  in kitchen section for about 2 eur. I keep it on my "dressing table" and store my lipsticks in it for now.


I also fall in love with this photo frame, because the color of it compliments my wallpaper perfectly. It was around 3,5 eur.


And last but not least this lovely glass container, where i gonna keep my sweets. It was 4,5 eur and one look on it makes me happy :)

I also bought some tea cups, but it deserves separate post later.

Hi! Don`t know about you guys, but i need all this for fall season! I had a dream about me walking in the park and drinking cappuccino from this cute cup (1). I also really need to buy new rain boots(3) and umbrella (2), because it`s very rainy there i live in any season. So i`m already ordered a pair of "hunters" in the color grafit from asos.com. And for summer flashbacks i had to have chanel tan de soleil (6), O.P.I. Rasberry California nailpolish (7), and my all time favorite parfume from chanel - coco mademoiselle (8).

What is yours must haves for fall?

my twist on dots

I just can`t pass out this fall trend on big dots! And also i get so inspired after Marc Jacobs fashion show, so i create my own piece by attaching sleeves i sewed to basic t-shirt. Very easy and i like how it came up. If you want DIY i`m so ready to make it. Tell me your thoughts!

I never was a huge fan of Tommy Hilfiger, but i want some comfy shoes for my lazy days (which is like everyday;)), so when i saw these few months ago i fell in love. Fortunate me i found them on sale for half price. And i have to say it was a bit of a hunt for my size. But now i have them =)
