Taking over Berlin


On sunday the 10th of August, I arrived in the capital of this loevly country called Germany. I went with my mum, and like a typical adult, she wanted to visit the "Typical sights" first. I wanted to see them too, even though I would rather climb a roof and watch artists. But, well, here you have some pictures of the "Brandenburger Tor", the "Fernsehturm" and the "Reichstag". We didn´t go into the Reichstag, because you ahd a two hour long waiting time in the endless qeue. But maybe on wednesday, we´ll try again.
I liked the Brandenburger Tor alot, even though there were loads of people. It was pretty big, way bigger than I though I would be. But since the weather way very nice, I could take some great photos.





After visiting "Tourist Berlin" I wanted to see a little bit of the other parts this city had. Berlin is a city for hipsters. Loads of people who are dressed very indie walk around the graffitied streets. I love this grunge atmosphere a lot. I would dress indie if I could, and if it would suit me. Maybe I´ll do a post on grunge looks soon.
Since we live in Kreuzberg, the alternate borough of Berlin, we have a lot of awesome street art around. I´ll do a whole post on this either.
In most of the souvenirshops you can get huuge posters of the famous graffities. And let me tell you : They´re pretty amazing. I couldn´t take a photo of them, copyright you know, but if you google " Berlin street art" you´ll find the most famous ones. I personally like the one with the ATAT´s fom Star Wars.


Stay tuned for the next part of my "Berlin series"

Black n´White from a different angle




After cutting my long overall into a short one, I can´t stop wearing it! I really love it,even though I kind of look like an 12-year old. I put these few studds on by myself, so I sort of diy-ed it to make it more "me". 

Black and white combinations are a very safe way to improve your styling, because you cant really go wrong.. a lot. So I thought about making the classy monochrome look, a little more "teenager-friendly". Well, this is what I ended with.

I like black and white cords a lot, but I didn´t want it to look depressive, so I added a teenage-touch to it. I think the print on this crop top is very playfull and adds a lot of interest onto the whole look. And you can´t go wrong with wearing a black beanie, even in summertime! I love how effortless an outfit can look, just by putting on a beanie. In my opinion, it makes you look a lot more edgy istantly!!!
But this is just my way of styling the classic " black and white" combi.


Overall - Pimpkie
Crop Top(borrowed from a friend) - Primark
Beanie - H&M
Shoes - Converse


How do you rock an black n´white outfit?

Waterproof Makeup




So since it´s summer you probly be going to the pool or the beach alot. Apart from this you are sweating and your face is very disgusting and gross( Ok I should probly stop talking..) So my ponit is: If you don´t want your makeup to drown downwards on your face, you´ve got to use waterproof makeup.
But with the fact that it´s summer, light makeup is like essential. I hate putting on a ton of makeup when it´s hot, cause your face just gets super cakey.
But this is what I used on a hot day when I went to the pool.

If you want a makeup tutorial on my channel let me know :)
What do you guys wear to the pool?

I wanted to have one of these cool rompers/overalls for a lifetime. But I couldn´t find any which were´nt to expensive. But one lucky day I went shopping with a friend of mine and found this long overall in Pimpkies sale section. It was reduced from 40 Bucks to 7 !!! This was a crazy deal!I was flashed and my hand automaticly went to my purse and my credit card. 
I filmed an OOTD video for you, so you can see it "in action". 
Please let me know what you think about my idea of cutting those into shorts :)

"Worth the Hype?" #3- Maybelline Rocket Mascara









 







People have been raving about this mascara since last summer, and as a "slow-burn" at hypes, I just recently got it. And now I wanted to tell you if it´s still worth all the fuss :)

Since I got it in France, I got it for 4 bucks less!!! So I think the price is okay for what you get out of it. The consistency is quite thick, much thicker than the "Collossal Volume" mascara. It really gives you massive lashes! But you have to be careful, cause they get spidery very easily. So brush through them several times to get rid of all the clumps. At first I thought the brush was quite bad, but it´s actually ok. The  bristles are quite short. So I though of using the "Collossal Volume"´s brush instead. But I havn´t tried yet.

+
Creates great lashes!
Worth the price!

-
Gets clumpy easily

In the end, I think it´s a great mascara, which thickens your lashes like crazy! But the "Collossal Volume" was just as great in my opinion. So I think, the"Rocket Mascara" isn´t exactly worth the hype, but Maybelline´s mascaras in general totally are!!!

Thanks for reading
