Mother's Day OOTD and some yummmm

Happy Mother's Day  to every mom, especially to my mama and my mother in law =)
Did not do much today, lazy sunday. We went to the PX, but that's about it. Weather was ok. I was busy all day looking at houses online, for the hubby and me when we go back to WA. Ugh, it's gonna be so stressfull, I HATE moving. I have all our stuff in storage and I hope Ill find a good house before my husband gets back from iraq. I still don't have a ticket either. I'm looking at tickets every day, the cheapest so far is 1400$! 1400$! holy cow! I hate spending that money on stupid plane tickets, I pray that they will lower the prices a bit. I still have about 8 weeks. And I still didn't even think about when I will take Diego back to WA. I don't know!!!! I hate flying, but evenmore having my dog flown across the globe. 10 hours is a really long time...sometimes I regret that I came back home to Germany for the 12 months deployment....
ahh enough stress....here my OOTD:

Dress - BCBG
Silver Satin Pumps - Schuhtempel via ebay
Purse - H&M
Necklace - gifted


Bought that dress when I worked at Macys. So I got it for a pretty good price =D I love BCBG, especially their dresses! I saw this dress and it just sang my name hehe

Well, yesterday I baked a strawberry biscuit roll for my mom. I love baking, but I never made a roll before and I wasn't sure how I'd manage to roll the cake...but it did turn out pretty well, I was yummy. Good job Carla. I rolled it the wrong way, so it was smaller but for the first time, not bad at all. My mom loved it.

Well, fellow bloggers and readers, that's it for today. It's already past midnight and I'm really tired.

Closing this post with a Look of the Moment picure =D This is me relaxing at home wearing my awsome I love Roma Hoodie. I really DO love Roma =) Roma ti amo!

Ciao,

Something of the day =)

Today is just BLAH. My mood is just like the weather. Grey, cold and rainy. What a great way to start the weekend. It's my day off and I'm walking around in sweatpants and an old shirt, thats why I'm NOT doing an OOTD lol. But I played with my coastal scents palette today. Since I just got it I still don't know what colors go with what, but I tried some more colorful stuff today and I think the results are kinda pretty. The colors are great. Also I tried cream liner for the first time, still need to get used to that. I always used liquid liner. So, let's call this EOTD, eventho I did not do my eyebrows, oops. Like I said, I was just messing around with the colors hehe.

Of course a mirror pic =D

Lips:

-Revlon soft nude

Nails:

-Petites in Sapphire (love that color)

On another note, our little princess Giuliana Luna is 1 month old today =) Now she weighs about 6,4lbs. Most of the weight is probably her hair =DIsn't she a doll?!? I love her. At H&M some lady seriously asked me if we went to the tanning salon with her because of her skin color! What the heck lol.

Have a great weekend!

OOTD - Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson, that's what the kids at school called me today. Actually they said, I look as cool as MJ. I love those kids, they are always telling me how cool and pretty my clothes are. Yep, even second graders can be fashionistas =D
I never thought about Michael Jackson when I bought that shirt with the embellished shoulders. Shame on me, I'm a huge Michael Jackson fan and I cried so much when he died last year =( I loved him ever since I was a little girl, I remember buying the Thriller cassette tape in italy hundreds of years ago lol.
Anyway, looks like spring is over in Germany. And what comes after spring in germany?? Nope, NOT summer. We're back to turning the heater on :( 
So here is my Michael Jackson moment for today =D

Not a good picture, but I was running late =D

Shirt - Tally Weijl
Belt - H&M
Tights - F21
Mary Janes - Payless
Necklace- Swarovski













Something else I forgot to post on my anniversary. My husband sent me flowers. Most of the flowers are already gone since my anniversary was over 1 week ago. This is whats left of the huge flower bouquet, only the tiger lillies ( is that their name) made it longer than 1 week. Still pretty. I'm getting used to having flowers in my room.

Closing this post with one of my all time favorite Michael Jackson song:

Dirty Diana - Michael Jackson


xoxo,

My very first award!

Thanks to beautiful and stylish Leah from Another Makeup Blog who gave me my very first blogger award!(Go check out her blog!!) I'm so excited, who doesn't want to be considered stylish?! =)
The rules to accept this award: State 5 randon facts about yourself and award 5 other bloggers and let them know you tagged them.

5 random facts about me

1. Love at first sight, I believe in it. Met my husband at the end of april 07, got engaged in august 07 and married 2 months later =D Fast, I know, but he took me to Paris on our second date, how can i NOT marry him!lol! Now we have been married for almost 3 years and he still gives me butterflies  ♥

                    Before he deployed for the second time =( Tears came after the pictures lol
2. I'm 100 % italian! I'm NOT american italian, I'm actually italian from Italy! Both my parents are italian, born and raised there. Eventho I grew up in Germany, 90% of my family is still in Italy and I try to go to back to Italy as often as I can. We're from Calabria, south Italy, right by the beach...sigh. If I would not have met my husband I would be living in Rome right now =)

                             I look so tiny infront of the colosseum =D
3. I speak 5 languages. I'm fluent in english, german, italian and french and semi fluent in spanish. Learning languages has always been a passion. I'm a nerd sometimes =) My favorite would be french! I love  it, sounds so romantic and smart =) I love french movies and their music!

My feel good song at the moment, dingue dingue dingue dingue =D
4. I will NEVER EVER watch horror movies. I refuse to! I'm a chicken, I'm scared just watching a scary trailer. I think if I'd watch a horror movie, I wouldnt be sleeping for a while. My husband gets frustrated sometimes, because he likes scary movies, but I just can't do it...dentists are about on the same level as horror movies lol

5. I'm blind as a bat =D I wear glasses at home and contacts when I leave my house. Thankfully glasses look pretty stylish nowadays. Without my glasses or contacts I'd be lost, especially driving the car. Thinking about lasik eye surgery...not sure yet.

My old boy and me, I love that pic. I look crazy but he looks so happy =D

That was fun. The 5 stylish bloggers I tag are:

Angie from Pandaphilia

Thanks again to Leah. I'm really thankful.

Ciao ciao,

Shopping = Happy =)

Today, me and my sister went to the mall to get some stuff for the baby. Little did I know there was a huge sale going on in my favorite stores =D I'm talking 50-70 % off original price. I spent ALOT LESS than 100 bucks on everything including lunch =D Must have been my lucky day.
I'm so excited =) That reminds me of something I heard on AFN Radio (American Forces Radio) the other day. They said that shopping can lead to depression and stress because you're so overwhelmed with all the stuff and the prices. I guess for most women it's the other way around, RETAIL THERAPY haha. I love shopping and it makes me happy, but of course too much of anything is bad for you =)
But enough talk, here's what I got:

OMG, how cute is this dress? I got it at H&M size XS. I wanted to get it in grey also, but they didn't have my size =( The sleeves are a little puffy. (Click on picture to enlarge)

Then I got shoes, it seems like everytime I shop I get shoes =) Oh well, they were on sale hehe. Size 5, yep I have small feet...usually 5 or 5.5

I got a leopard print bikini at H&M. You can tell I LOVE leopard print, a leopard print bikini was missing in my collection. You should check out their new swimsuit collection, so cute! Top is size 36(S) and bottom 34(XS)

I got a snake print purse also at H&M, it was 70% off, oh yes! I needed something smaller, but not too small, my big coach wallet still fits!

I absolutely LOVE this shirt, got it at Tally Weijl. I wish they'd have Tally Weijl in the states! That shirt caught my eye a while ago, but didn't wanna spend the money on it, but guess what? 50% off! Size XS

Love the detail on the shoulders!

I'm still not done, bought 2 skirts also at Tally Weijl. Both XS

And last thing I bought, ArtDeco Eyeliner brush. Normally, I use Sonia Kashuk brushes, but I don't have the eyeliner brush, because I always use liquid liner or pencil. But since I bought creme liner, I needed a brush ha.

Wow, I think that's it. I definately need to go to bed, gotta go to work tomorrow and I think I already know what I will be wearing =D
Nite nite,

Happy Monday OOTD

Today, Im lazy. Its THAT time of the month and I feel like crap! Im always in terrible back pain eventho I take meds =( That sucks!
My OOTD, pretty comfy and casual, spiced up a bit with red shoes =)

Shirt - Old Navy
Jeans - Tally Weijl
Belt - Alley Kat
Necklace - Swarovski
Peeptoes - some boutique in Rome
Purse - Prada, also bought in Rome
Diamond Ring - My Love♥

I absolutely love that diamond ring my husband gave me for our wedding in church. My engagement diamond ring was already stunning but this one is just beautiful! The diamonds are really clear and shiny! I love it, I never wanna take it off =) I get so many compliments on that ring! Good job my love hehe


So, as I said before, I love my new coastal scents palette! I did a neutral eye today, but the colors are really pretty! Unfortunatly, I'm not a pro in taking eye pictures to show off make up lol
But I think, you'll get the idea =D Eventho its just a mirror picture lol

For my eyes I used ArtDeko Base
ArtDeko Liquid Liner in black
L'Oreal Paris Extra Volume Collagen Mascara
and the CS 88 palette. I marked the shades I used with an X.

Lips -
WetnWild Megalast Lip color in Think Pink

I took that picture at the end of the day, so I was wearing the make up for at least 6-7 hours already! Lasts pretty long on me!

my boy Diego on his beanbag, he loves that thing more than he loves MY bed! I guess thats a great success lol. But that is in deed a really comfy bean bag =)

xoxo,

OOTN for a night out

My twin cousins from outta town spontaniously decided to come visit, so we went out. I didn't have much time to think of an outfit. I wanted to wear a dress but I would have been too overdressed for the club we went to.
I just noticed that this is my third leopard print outfit in a row =D This time its purple tho.
Normally, this is a dress, but I find it a little too short to go dancing with, so I wore some sort of tights/stockings underneath.

Sequin Dress/Top - Colloseum
Tights - C&A
Peeptoes - Guess (oh so comfy)
Necklace - Swarovski
Satin Wristlet - Coach
Leather Jacket-Blue Sand

I just wore the jacket on my way to the club ( I was the driver) but left it in the car.
I love this leather jacket. I bought it in february when we went to my favorite city in the world ROME. Bought it in a little fashion boutique called Blue Sand. I was looking for a black leather jacket, but found this cream colored instead. I love shopping in italy =)

Details

It was a fun night and I was excited to see my cousins again. The club was kinda lame or maybe I guess I'm too old =D It was one of those clubs where you don't have to be 18 to get in. Lots of 16 year old kids acting like Biatches, rubbing on each other and thinking its cool =D The music sucked. They played Hip Hop on the main floor and Electro on the second floor (I love electro). I listen to a little hip hop, but last night was garbage, stupid old remixes, the Dj played the same songs all time and little german guys trying to act all gangsta. Yep some of them even wearing grillz and throwing up gang signs =D Like I always say, they have nooo idea what they're doing, but think its cool cuz lil wayne does it =D
You know when you think of Rap and Hip Hop and then you think of that typical cliché...that's exactly what it looked like last night!lol
The electro dance floor was alot better, more grown ups and normal dressed people. It was a fun night tho.
On another note, I used the Coastal Scents Palette last night and OMG the colors are great!! Better than I expected! I did a purple smokey eye and the colors are so pigmented. I might by the shimmery pallete when I get back to the states.

Oh, yes I almost had a heart attack couple hours ago. Somebody left the door open and Diego, my Beagle took of and nobody noticed it!! We noticed after a while that he was gone. OMG I panicked! I called him, looked everywhere, he was nowhere to be found, I drove thru the whole city looking for him. NOTHING. I drove back home and I saw him coming up the street towards my car. I was so relieved when he jumped in my car....gosh Diego...I almost thought I had lost you =(  You know how Beagles are, always following their nose. I could not live without my Diego!
