Little haul post

I hope you all had a great mother's day with your mum!! I haven't seen her that much today actually, she and my dad went to visit the family, but I stayed home to study. Exams are coming closer and closer and I'm really in a lack of time...

A little while ago I promised a haul post of what I bought at the seaside and in Brussels would follow, well here it is, it's not that much... but I hope you'll like it! :)

Love,
Carlota

Sushi

Past friday, in the evening, after seeing the perfect wedding, I went to Leuven with my best friends to enjoy some great Sushi!

We went to this sushi restaurant for Natasha's birthday, which is actually this week but due to finals coming closer we already celebrated it for a part, and afterwards we went for a drink and a delicious dessert!

Me and Natasha

Mmm... We love sushi so much!

The end of my Easter holiday

I’m back from the seaside, totally unstressed and with a little bit of colour on my skin. It was again such a great stay. We’ve passed 3 lovely days and the weather was incredible hot for this time of the year, especially for a country like Belgium. I went to the beach, did a little bit of shopping and went to a delicious restaurant with my parents.

Today I went to Brussels-city to celebrate the 21^st birthday of one of my best friends (Sara). We gave her some gift cards from M.A.C., ate some delicious food at "le pain qoutidien" and did some shopping, like usual. Brief a beautiful day. One I hope she’ll never forget! :)

And tomorrow, to close this Easter holiday, I’m going with the whole family to my grandparents to celebrate Easter.

Have a great Easter for those who celebrate! 

- A haul-post of everything I bought these past days will follow :) -

Love,

Great weekend!

My first real blogpost *Jeujh*

Past weekend was such a great weekend, especially saturday! In the first place because it was such a lovely sunny day, the first in like ages, because it's always rainy and cold in Belgium! In the second place because I had a date with some of my best friends. We went to this small cute cupcake shop in Brussels (www.lilicup.com) and ate cupcapes as lunch -Yes, yes as lunch haha- and gave each other some belated christmas and birthday presents. Then afterwards we went for some shopping, and drunk some delicious Arizona iced-tea -which I've never tasted before- on a sunny terrace.

Some pictures of our day :)

These were the cupcakes I got for lunch:

Left: Carrot Cake - Right: Columbia (A cupcake with a kind of jelly inside and a peanutbutter topping)
Mmm... But my favorite of all time is still the Carrot Cake one!  

Opening the presents we got for each other. I got a Chanel nailpolish for my christmas, 4 M.A.C. girftcards and a sephora foundation brush for my birthday, I was soooooo happy and still am!

The sephora foundation brush was extra special, because my friend brought it with her from the US...we don't have a sephora in Belgium :( 

     

Thank you so much girls for these beautiful presents!! 

After our cupcakes we went to the MAC store which was so so crowded due to the launch of quite cute collection. It was quite a cute collection but didn't got anything because I was more interested in the wonderwomen collection! I actually wanted to buy the 'Aphrodite'- blush, but it was sold out! So I only got a lipstick and some things from their normal collection. Look at how beautiful the packaging is of the wonderwoman collection, soo in love.

From the normal collection I got a blush in the colour 'peaches', the painterly paintpot,
and a cremesheen glass gloss in 'richer, lusher'

Lately I'm really into coral colours, so I'm really happy with the colours I got! They suit my skintone pretty good and they are perfect for summer. -If you're interested in a review or a swatch please let me know in the comments below :) 

Lipstick from the wonderwoman collection in the colour MARQUISE D' (Lustre finish)

We also went to a shop where they got the famous EOS lipbalms eveybody has. I've never tried them before, but I was so happy me and my friends finally found a shop in Brussels where we could buy them!!
I'm already addicted to them, because they are so good! Smooth but not sticky at all, that's how I like it!

The pink one is summer fruit, the green one is honeysuckle honeydrew and
the yellow one is lemon drop with SPF 15, which is great for summer.

This one is definitely my favorite!!

And the Arizona Iced-tea- jummie!! :) It was so good and refreshing!
