Saturday: Mybeautybox and Prom

Saturday was the day of my prom.
I woke up at 10 and started my day with some breakfast. While sitting there my dad came in with my first Mybeautybox. If you don't know, Mybeautybox is a subscription box with beauty related stuff in it. You usually get 4 products that are either samples or full size. They cost 129 kr a month buy you get it cheaper if you pay for 3, 6 or 12 months at once. I ordered a 3 month subscription where you get one box a month. I must say, i was pretty happy for my first box!

 I got a set of Eylure false lashes, a Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure nail polish in a blueish gray color called Gray by Gray, a Rimmel Glam Eyes Eyeliner in a purple color, a BodyNordic Kiss & Makeup Lip Gloss in brown, a sample of BodyNordic's protecting hand and nail cream and a Easysun tanning towelette.

The only thing i couldn't use was the liner, because of the color. Purple is not a good match for me, specially not when you have blue eyes, then you need some gold or bronze to compliment the color. I have already tried the hand cream and it is very moisturizing cream. There might be like 3 more uses in the sample, so it is not a small one, even though it is just a foil packet. The lip gloss is really pretty. I wore it at my prom and i loved the color. the color was very natural and shimmery but so pretty. The nail polish is more like a fall color, but i have tried it on one of my nails.

The value of my box was 338,82 kr and i only paid 129 for it. I am really happy about it! This box's theme was Fast Glam, so it was make up for women on the go. I like this concept and i am looking forward to my next box!

After looking at my box, i took a long shower and after that i started on my makeup. I know a lot of girls pay their hairdresser to do their hair and makeup, but i don't have that kind of money and i figured that i could do it myself, so i did. I used about 2 hours on my hair and makeup but that was because i messed up a couple of times and had to redo it. But it all went well and i was ready in time for us driving to Copenhagen where we were going to dance Les Lanciers.

When we got into Copenhagen there was this huge demonstration because of 4/20 which is also national marijuana day. So there was a demonstration for legalizing marijuana and they were all over the space where we were going to dance. Luckily they left for a walk around the city 15 minutes before we had scheduled to dance, so it all worked out fine.

 That is me, standing in my prom dress with trash and marijuana all over the place. It all worked out great, except for the low music so we couldn't hear when to do what, but it was alright.
After the dance, we took a group photo on the stairs in front of Copenhagen's town hall ad then we walked to the restaurant where we were going to eat. It was this Turkish place called Sultan Place and the food was great. I don't think anyone walked away from the restaurant hungry anyways. After a couple of hours we walked down to the place where out bus was going to pick us up. We had rented a partybus and that was probably the most fun thing i have ever tried with my class. We drove out to the little mermaid my the ocean and there we had more pictures taken. after that we just drove a bit around in Copenhagen while listening to loud music and drinking alcohol. We all  had fun, but because of all the alcohol that was consumed we had to stop twice in 2 hours to get to a bathroom.. The driver did not like us at the end of the ride..

When we got to the school, we walked up the red carpet and got even more pictures taken. All the pictures..! Then we were going to dance in front of our parents in the gym. That went a lot better than in Copenhagen because we could hear the music and then it was a lot easier, but unfortunately i stepped in my dress and almost fell over, but i didn't and i just danced on. So embarrassing! The rest of the night i only danced the Lanciers dances and not on the dancefloor between the dances because i was afraid someone would step on my dress and ruin me. But i danced all the dances and then i went home and straight to bed.. after i had removed my makeup, gotten out of the dress, fixed my hair and brushed my teeth. We had actually gotten an offer at a disco to get in for free and there was going to be some cheap drinks, but i was not in the mood and certainly not in my prom dress! When i got home i got a call from Simon and we talked a bit before i went to bed. All in all, a great day!

Another eargasm!

I have a couple of songs that i have fallen in love with recently.

This one have been running on repeat on my phone and my computer. Oh my god i love it! It's like a mixture of Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake and some kind of 80's music. It's just awesome!! The lyrics are kind of dirty, but which song hasn't got dirty lyrics today? I mean, there is not a lot of the songs made today which hasn't got a bit of sex in it. It's T.I., Pharrell and a guy called Robin Thicke. He has the prettiest eyes.. Wow..

The other one is a cover of Bruno Mars' When I Was Your Man. It's Noah who sings it, and i really love this song. The lyrics are so sweet and urgh..! I just love it.

New arrivals and a rage

In the last month or so, i've ordered quite a lot of stuff and i just wanted to show you what i got and tell you a little about it and how i like it.

Let's start with some lip products that i bought from Asos

These are the Rimmel London Apocalips lip lacquers. They are kind of fluid lipsticks with a build-in gloss. They are really pigmented and i love them. I got them in the colors Big Bang, the red, and Apocaliptic, the pink. Here they are on my lips:

Also i ordered a couple of dresses from Members which you have already seen, but here they are on me :)
And yes, i am well aware of my mess :)

I don't really know which one of them i like the best, because they are both really pretty! :)

The last thing i ordered a couple of days ago was some shoes. They have also arrived and they are really tall!

They are surprisingly comfortable, even though they remind me of stilts. They are great to walk in also! My plan for these was to wear them for prom, but i don't really know.. I got my dress back from the tailor's today and i tried it on with the shoes and they didn't quite seem to match my dress, but i am pretty sure that i am going to use these shoes anyways at some point because they are really great! The only downside is that the glitter is everywhere after you've tried them on and it can kinda scratch, but clear nail polish and hairspray should do the trick. For my prom dress i think i'm just gonna stick with my nude pumps instead.

Now for the rage. This might seem stupid to some of you, but this really made me angry and i don't want to put up with it. At my school, we have a school football tournament. I am on my class' team with four other guys and one other girl. We have played to matches where we lost one and the other one was tied. Today we played our second match which ended 1-1 which is okay, i mean, it's better than losing. Some of the guys really get into these matches where i and the other girl just sees it as fun, which might annoy some of the boys. One of the boys takes this tournament really serious and gets really mad if we lose, come on, it's just a game!!, and today he really stepped on my toes because of a thing he said. He is one of those guys who's full of himself and no one id good enough for him, you know, a real douche. He is one of those types who can't play on a team, he just runs his own show and it doesn't help when he is the one scoring the goals. Well, after the match he said that it was the girls fault that the other team scored a goal. What the fuck!? He hasn't given a reason why it was our fault, but i just don't see it. The match were supposed to start at 11:40 and when we (the other girl and i) walked down to the field, they were already playing? He had apparently been pretty eager to start the match, with or without us - Not our fault we were late. When us girls are on the field and scores a goal, we get 2 points instead of 1 so it is smart to play us if there is a chance of a goal, but when they don't play us we just kinda feel like we are in the way because of the small field. Now, i don't see how it can be our fault they scored, it wasn't like we handed over the ball to them? That is why we have decided to not play any more. Let's see if they do any better without us and out numbered. Let's see who gets the fault when we aren't there to take the blame anymore. It is just so ridiculous and he is really just a huge jerk who needs a high five in the face with a chair made of steel. And that is just how it is.  

Prom among other things

We are getting closer and closer to prom and i don't really know what to expect from the entire day. Right now i think the dancing in Copenhagen, the dining and the ride to the school is going to be fun, but the party at the school is something i am a bit doubtful about. Mostly because the parties at the school have gradually gotten more boring and less people have been showing up. I think the reason is the fact that there is a lot of smokers on the school and it is no longer allowed to smoke on the schools premises so a lot of the students choose not to go to the parties, just because they can't smoke. Also i'd rather expect a lot less and be pleasantly surprised than being disappointed for making too high expectations.

My dress is still at the tailor's and i haven't heard anything from her yet, but as long as it gets done before next Saturday, i'm happy. I've just kinda counted on wearing my nude pumps with my dress but now i am looking at these babies:

I think they are really pretty and kinda special but i don't know if it is my style or something i will wear a whole lot. I don't wanna buy them just for this event, you know? They are 13,5 cm high, have a 5 cm plateau  and with a heel as thick as those, they should be pretty comfortable. Also, i love the color and i think they will fit my dress really nice. They are not too expensive, but i know that if i'm gonna buy them, it has to be soon so they can arrive on time. If you are interested in these shoes, you can buy them here

Remember when i talked about the trouble me and Iben probably were going to make? We kinda dyed her hair a crazy color and we have to do it again right before prom, because it is already kinda washed out. But we dyed her beautiful red hair, pink in the ends, like a dip-die. It was soooo pretty!!
This week we are going to dye my hair, because i'm not gonna have totally dark roots at my prom! :)
Next week i am going to the hairdresser to get a haircut. I think the last time i got one was in September, so my hair could probably use it. Even more because of the dyeing. When you bleach your hair it gets more damaged and dry than if you dye your hair any other color. Also, my hair is a bit too long for the hairdo i want to.

Recently i've ordered two new dresses that i am really exited to try on when they get here. I think they are really pretty and i've been eyeing one of them for a long time and when it was on a sale, i chose to buy it. Here they are:

They can be found here: dress 1 & dress 2
