Just another saturday night

Skirt and blouse from Forever21, Hairband from H&M, Zara clutch


H&M Shirt and bag, Asos boots



Last saturday we went to the Pratersauna - not a big surprise I guess - tomorrow we will probably go to another club, but we haven't decided yet where to go. It was really fun last week - but one lesson we had to learn - you can't buy something to eat (exept pizza and kebab) at 5 o'clock in the morning in Vienna. We wanted to get a burger or hotdog but that was a mission impossible :-)!
One thing I realized during the last couple days - summer is almost over! Maybe that's just my opinion but summer always seems too short. I just love summer and every year it's hard for me to accept that it will get cold :-) therefore I should enjoy the last sunny days of summer even more.
Have a great weekend!

August favourites


As some of you might already know i am a beauty junkie :) So i thought i share with you my favourite products but also other things that i really loved during the month of August!
  • Korres lip butter in pomegranate gives just the nicest light pink tint EVER. And it does wonders on  chapped lips!
  • MAC: I loveeeee Pink Nouveau. For me it is just the perfect Barbie Pink color. And if you wear it combined with black eyeliner and big lashes it looks sooo cool...at least in my opinion :) I got the "Steamy" eyeshadow as a birthday gift from a friend and i am head over heels in love with it as i think it really suits everyone but especially girls with brown hair! It is my second favourite MAC eyeshadow which leads me directly to my all time favourite. CLUB. There's no better eyeshadow in this entire planet!!! I swear. It is the perfect day and night color depending on how you apply it. It is the most versatile eyeshadow. I will never stop using this. In fact, i use it EVERY time i go out and at least 3 times a week. I guess that says it all haha
  • Nivea Lash revolution mascara is actually really great, used it a couple of years ago and fell all over in love again. And the best part? I got 50% off haha
  • Bourjois creme blush. I swear by this during summer time when i am tanned as it gives you such a healthy and nice glow on your cheeks. Maybe i keep using it during winter time. I just adore it to much.
  • The Baby Face cream is really soothing for my sensitive skin and i think it also helps with breakouts.
  • I guess it is common knowledge that parabens and silicones are extremely damaging for your hair over the long term even though they are in most drugstore hair shampoos. So i am always on the hunt for shampoos that are free of these 2 ingredients. Normally I used to stick to LUSH shampoos as i really like them and the are "au naturel". But they are rather pricey so i was happy as i found Garnier natural beauty. Their coconut& cocoa shampoo and this one are free from parabens or silicones and they do magic to my hair. I swear. I sometimes even skip conditioner as my hair already feels so soft from the shampoo alone. And it is very cheap. It costs me only 1,95€ compared to LUSH's 9-20€ for a shampoo! Give it a try, you won't regret it!
  • Elnett hairspray. Do i really have to say much about this? There is a reason why most hairstylists during Fashion Weeks use this. It's the best!

On friday we went to the Pure Living Bakery in the 13th district of Vienna - we definetly have to go there again as soon as possible. It was really hard to decide what to take, because they have so many different kinds of cakes, cookies, waffels etc. It's like paradise :-). We also took some outfit photos in the streets, which is always funny - and always so surprising how different every district of Vienna looks. The area around the Bakery looks more like a small town or village. So we were just strolling around taking photos and enjoying the sun!

...we just can't get enough of our beloved "Freiraum" restaurant in Vienna. We always have so much fun when we're there, enjoying the most delicious food in all of Vienna, drinking homemade ice teas and the best cocktails in town :) And as usual we took our pictures afterwards for the amusement of all cab drivers waiting down the street. It was also the first time i wore my pink Aldo sandals which i bought 2 years (!!) ago in Dubai but never had the chance to actually wear them out (outfit/weather etc. reasons). So yeah, here they are. And even if they hurt i am planning of wearing them out more often in the future. Tomorrow Nina and i will pay a visit to "pure living bakery" to try out some of their delicious cakes and bagels. We've heard about that bakery before and the menu looks extremely promising. If you happen to be in Vienna you should definitely give it a try. We'll post pictures of the food and our outfits on the weekend ;) Stay tuned...
