Hello, again

It´s nice to be here again.
Returning here and finding every single thing the same as I left it seven months ago made me feel really unusual. A tiny bit of my universe is, despite time and all the changes it brings, the same. Patiently waiting.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Nekako je lijepo opet biti ovdje. U mom malom kutku interneta. :)
Baš je neobičan osjećaj vratiti se na blog prvi put nakon sedam mjeseci i naći sve točno kako je i ostavljeno. Mali komadić svojeg svemira koji je, unatoč prolasku vremena i promjenama, i dalje isti. Strpljivo čeka.

2016. favorites

I will remember 2016. very long time. Many good and bad things happened but, in the end, I have to say that I´m glad it is gone, I really need a new beginning.

It was a really good year for the blog. It got a new column, "Grandma´s closet" (click) which is currently on break (simple reason- it´s too cold outside for grandma´s dresses). The blog also got to the number of 100 posts and 30 000 views. Thank you so much for that, it means a world to me. <3

It was also a good year for my makeup. I decided to gather my biggest favorites of 2016. and share them with you in this post.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Našu dragu 2016. ću po mnogočemu pamtiti. Bilo je tu i uspona i padova, i dobroga i lošega ali moram reći da mi je baš drago što ide. Nikad mi više nije trebao novi početak nego na kraju 2016.

Blog je u protekloj godini dobio novu rubriku Iz bakinog ormara (klik) s kojom trenutno pauziram (Kati se ne da smrzavati na slikavanju), došao do 100 postova i 30 000 pregleda i na tome vam beskonačno hvala, puno mi znači. <3

Kad smo kod kozmetike, bila je to dobra godina. Odlučila sam okupiti svoja najveća otkrića i kozmetičke prijatelje koji su me pratili u 2016-oj u jedan post i podijeliti ih s vama.

Essence the little x-mas factory trend edition - review

The most of Essence the little X-Mas factory products left the stores in December, but some of them are still available here and there so I hope this review is going to be useful for someone. :)

Every Christmas Essence makes holiday limited edition and it is always suuuper cute, so I just couldn´t resist buying it. I´ve stopped buying limited edition products lately (I really don´t know why I`ve done that, but my wallet was happy with that) but I just can´t skip the Christmas one. Are these worth the money? Read below. :)


-------------------------------------------------------------------


Iako se većina prozorčića s Essence the little X-Mas factory limitiranom kolekcijom ispraznila još za vrijeme `blagdanske šoping groznice`, tu i tamo su proizvodi su još uvijek na policama i sigurna sam da će nekome ova recenzija poslužiti. :)

Kao i svakog Božića, Essence je pripremio blagdansku limitiranu kolekciju i ja nisam mogla odoljeti preslatkim pakiranjima i lijepim, prigodnim bojama. U zadnje vrijeme sam malo popustila s kupovanjem limitiranih kolekcija, ali u božićno mi vrijeme (po običaju) ništa nije moglo pomoći. :D Što se od ovih simpatičnih stvarčica isplati, a što ne, saznajte ispod.

October 2016. favorites

Last month was pretty basic and I was stuck in a bit monotonous daily routine, so my makeup choices were pretty simple. Well, we all need a rest from trying out a new products sometimes, so I sticked to some of my all time favorites last month. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
U zadnjih mjesec dana upala sam u neku (pomalo monotonu) dnevnu rutinu od koje jako rijetko odstupam, i to se da primijetiti na mojim favoritima ovog mjeseca. Nekada je dobro odmoriti se od eksperimentiranja i uživati u proizvodima koje već dugo volim. :)

This perfect Golden rose chocolate shade got its shade number erased, but if you try any of Fantastic color nail polishes, you won´t be dissapointed. They last pretty long and have great pigmentation. Drying time is sometimes a bit longer, but that can easily be solved with a topcoat. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ovom Golden rose čokoladnom čudu se broj izbrisao, ali nećete pogriješiti probate li bilo koji lak iz Fantastic color linije. Odlična trajnost i pigmentacija, jedino što se malo sporije suši ali nadlak riješi problem. :)

Essence iArriba! nail polish in the shade 04 la vida loca was a part of last year´s limited edition and i love it since then. It is really special and that´s why it is one of my all time favorites. For the swatch, click here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Essence iArriba! lak za nokte u nijansi 04 la vida loca bio je dio prošlogodišnje limitirane kolekcije i zaljubila sam se u njega na prvi pogled. Stvarno je poseban i jedan je od mojih najdražih lakova. Kako izgleda na noktima provjerite ovdje.

Wet n wild color icon eyeshadow palette in the shade E3951 The naked truth is always a good choice, but I´ve used it almost every single day during the last month. I even managed to break it a bit. :D Countless combinations are something I really like about this palette. Review and look are here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wet n wild color icon paletu sjenila u nijansi E3951 The naked truth uvijek mi je pri ruci i često je koristim, ali ovaj mjesec je bila gotovo svakodnevni odabir. Stigla sam je malo i razbiti haha. :D
Pet nijansi i 55 različitih kombinacija je ono što jako volim kod ove palete. Recenzija i look su ovdje.

Essence viva Brasil eyeshadow is great when I like a bit of colour on my eyelids. I mix it with Wnw palette.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Essence viva Brasil sjenilo dobro posluži kada sam raspoložena za malo boje. Kombiniram ga s Wnw paleticom.

Essence matt matt matt lipsticks are awesome. Last month my favorite was shade 02 Perfect match. The colour matches every blush and eye makeup look. Review of the shades 01, 02, 03 is here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Essence matt matt matt ruževi su pun pogodak, a u prošlom mjesecu sam najviše koristila 02 Perfect match. Boja koja se odlično slaže sa svim rumenilima i kombinacijama na kapcima. Recenzija nijansi 01, 02 i 03 je ovdje.

I bought this Mini Love perfume in Dm, paid it about six Euros and I loove it! It has sweet, floral scent and it is a great everyday choice.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mini love parfem kupila sam u Dm- u za nekih 50- ak kuna i obožavam ga. Ima lagani, cvjetni miris i odličan je izbor za svaki dan.

I mostly used Wet n wild coverall coverstick at the beginning of this month (while I was still having a bit of summer tan), now it´s a bit too dark for me. Review is here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wet n wild coverall coverstick koristila sam početkom mjeseca (dok je još bilo tragova ljetnog tena), sada mi je malo pretaman. Recenzija je ovdje.

Batiste dry shampoo is my this month´s biggest (and only) discovery. It saves my hair every time and smells great. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Batiste šampon za suho pranje kose je moje novo otkriće. Spasi mi kosu svaki put i uz to odlično miriše. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

That´s all for today.
What about your October favorites?
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Toliko od mene za danas.
Koji su vaši listopadski favoriti? 

                                                     

Zaful review & outfit

Today you´re reading a very special post about a few nice things I got from Zaful and about my experience with them. :)

I´m pretty new in online shopping, so collaboration with Zaful helped me to get to know it much better. I was impressed with the wide range of clothes and styles you can easily find there. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Danas čitate jedan poseban post o nekoliko lijepih stvarčica sa stranice Zaful te o mojem iskustvu s odjećom i stranicom. :)

Kao nekome potpuno novom i izgubljenom u online kupovini, suradnja sa Zafulom pomogla mi je da ju bolje upoznam. Ogroman izbor odjeće i svi mogući stilovi na jednom mjestu svakako me nisu ostavili ravnodušnom. 

I´ve decided to order a dress (in vintage style, of course), cat eye glasses and ring set. My stuff were delivered in a few weeks and I didn´t have to pay any customs. Everything in the package was nicely packed and protected.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Odlučila sam se za haljinu (u vintage stilu, ofkors), cat eye naočale i set prstenja. Narudžba je došla kroz dva-tri tjedna i nisam morala plaćati carinu. Sve u paketiću bilo je uredno zapakirano i zaštićeno.

There is a lot of gorgeous products on Zaful so it was hard to decide what to order, but I´ve made a right choice and I love everything I got. If you want to see the rest of my Zaful wishlist, click HERE.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
U mnoštvu prekrasnih stvari bilo mi se teško odlučiti, ali nisam pogriješila i oduševljena sam svime što je stiglo na moju kućnu adresu. Ako vas zanima ostatak moje wishliste, pogledajte post (KLIK).

Vintage floral dress

ZAFUL LINK

-------------------------------------------------------------------

This perfection stole my attention immediately and when I finally saw it in real life, I liked it even more. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Ovo je savršenstvo od haljine odmah privuklo moju pozornost, a kada je stigla kod mene, postala mi je još draža.

The material is cotton and it really has high quality.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Materijal je pamuk i na dodir mi se čini kvalitetan.

This is an A- line dress and the lower part is pretty full, as you can see above.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Haljina je A- kroja i na donjem dijelu se dosta širi, kao što vidite na slici iznad.

The dimensions of the dress equal the ones written online.
This dress should be knee length, but consider the fact that I´m 184 cm tall, and wear L. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Haljina odgovara dimenzijama sa stranice i nije bilo neugodnih iznenađenja po tom pitanju. :)
Uzmite u obzir da bi haljina trebala biti do koljena, ali mojih 184 cm visine (na veličinu L) je učinilo svoje i na meni je nešto kraća.

It will be perfect for the next spring- summer season (together with all other stuff bought on late summer sales). It is a bit too cold for it at this moment. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Odlično će doći za iduću sezonu (zajedno s ostalom odjećom kupljenom na kasnoljetnim sniženjima), ipak je sada malčice prehladno za nju. :)

(ignore my silly face :D / zanemarite izraz lica :D)

I´m completely amazed by this dress and I can´t wait to wear it again! :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Haljina me skroz oduševila i jedva je čekam ponovo nositi! :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sunglasses

ZAFUL LINK

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I prefer wearing sunglasses in neutral colours and I completely fell in love wit these cat-eye ones. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Preferiram sunčane naočale u neutralnim bojama i neko sam vrijeme tražila neke s laganim cat eye oblikom, stoga mi je drago da sam naišla na ove. :)

I wasn´t sure will they be fragile, so I got surprised when I got them and realised that they are pretty firm. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Po fotografijama nisam mogla dobiti predodžbi o kakvoći i težini naočala, stoga sam se iznenadila kada su stigle. Bojala sam se da će biti krhke, ali dobila sam čvrste i konkretne naočale. 

The design is a combination of gold and black colour with many sweet details. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Kombinacija su zlatne i crne, s puno lijepih detalja. 

    They also match the dress nicely. :) 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Također, lijepo su se složile s haljinom. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Rings

ZAFUL LINK

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I wear jewelry every single day, but i rarely buy it, so I really needed these rings. As everything else, you can check them on the link. I suggest you to check other jewelry too, the prices are pretty nice. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Iako ga svakodnevno nosim, nakit nekako slabo kupujem, tako da su mi ovi prstenčići pravo osvježenje. Kao i ostale stvari, možete ih pogledati na linku, a pogledajte i ostatak nakita na stranici, povoljniji je nego u većini dućana ovdje. :)

That´s it for today.

I hope you like the stuff I showed you today. Till next post! <3
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Toliko od mene za danas.

Nadam se da Vam se stvarčice (i fotografije) sviđaju i čitamo se uskoro! <3

September 2016. favorites

Time really flies. :)
Today I´m showing you my September favorites. Many things changed in the last month. Autumn started wich made me so happy. Also, a new school year has begun (I wasn´t really looking forward to that). Those things really changed my makeup habits and today I´m talking about a bunch of products that I used and loved in September.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Evo mene s rujanskim favoritima. Ovih mjesec dana je doslovno "proletjelo" kraj mene. Stigla je jesen koju sam tako dugo očekivala, a s njom i škola (koja nije baš bila željno iščekivana). To je bitno promijenilo moje "make up navike" i pojavilo se desetak proizvoda koje uvjerljivo najčešće koristim. Danas o njima čitate u rujanskim favoritima.

Essence matt matt matt lipsticks review & swatches/ recenzija & swatchevi

Essence autumn- winter update appeared in our drugstores about a month ago. As every time, a few good products are discontinued, but a bunch of new stuff are here! :)
As always, I checked nail polishes first. Then, I tried to find something I really plannned to buy this autumn- matt nude lipsticks.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Prije otprilike mjesec dana došlo je do standardne jesen - zima izmjene na Essence stalcima. Kao i svaki put, neki dobri proizvodi su otišli, ali se pojavilo i puno noviteta koji jednostavno "zovu" na isprobavanje. :)
Ja sam prvo skenirala nove lakove za nokte (nikad dosta lakova), a onda se  prebacila na nešto što sam ove jeseni stvarno namjeravala kupiti- neutralne nijanse mat ruževa.
