OUTFIT: charlotte simone.

In theory, I like to consider my style fairly laid-back, casual and basic in a sense that I love things that work in lots of different ways and aren’t too loud.

OUTFIT: a deep v

It is not common that I get overly excited about Mondays, but ever since the weather report started promising 18°C for today, I couldn’t wait for the new week to start.

CRAVINGS: birthday presents.

This week, there is literally nothing I am craving. After an entire week of birthday celebrations, I am the happiest camper. My friends and family spoiled me rotten and I got so many amazing presents - more than I could have wished for.

BEAUTY TALK: tips for dry & sensitive skin in Winter

I think it is safe to say that the cold and dry air during Winter takes a toll on almost everyone's skin. Now, imagine those surroundings paired with eczema, which basically equals extra dry skin all year long.
