Tendenza

Today I am talking about an old favourite of mine. When this perfume came out, I absolutely loved it and it’s actually quite some time since I have had this perfume. I saw it in a shop for only €9,99, so I knew that it was an absolute bargain and I couldn’t resist myself from buying a little present.
Perfumes can remind me of a lot of different things. Van Gils Tendenza actually reminds me of my sister. She was also obsessed with this at the time and used it every single day. It was hard not to smell here in the house, haha. A lot of perfumes actually remind me of her, probably because she just loves perfume!
I adore the fruity, floral scent and after a few spritzes it immediately puts me in a better mood. I love the simplicity of Tendenza. Even though, I can appreciate a gorgeous perfume bottle, I don’t mind that it’s all about the scent. Because it’s very fruity, I do find it’s more of a spring/summer perfume. Luckily we are hopefully changing seasons soon, so I can make it my signature scent!

What if your favourite perfume?

New Shoes

So I thought it was time to introduce you to a new addition in my shoe collection. I bought this pair last month in London and it was love at first sight. These black patent loafers were on my wishlist for a very long time. I knew that I would definitely find a pair in London, because I saw them on many British blogs; and I was right!
In the New Look on Oxford Street I found these amazing shoes! I was actually very tempted to buy them in white too, but I told myself that one pair was enough. For £19,99 they are an absolute bargain and a must for every shoe addict! I love the tassels and the pointed toe. I don’t own anything like this and believe me, I have a lot of shoes!
I find them very versatile and very comfy; although I do need to put tape on the back of my ankle, otherwise there will be a lot of blisters popping up. Not that that really matters, because I will wear them anyways. Unfortunately, due to the weather, I cannot really wear them. It’s sooo cold outside that I cannot permit myself to leave the house without boots, a winter coat and gloves. For me, spring and summer can’t come soon enough, so I can wear these babies again!

What are your favourite shoes at the moment?

*A London haul will go up soon on my blog. I have been busy with editing it, learning for my exams and writing essays. So even though it will be a bit late, I will upload it! Also the fact that I am actually putting up a video of me talking to a camera has to sink in. I love to do it, but when I am editing, I annoy myself a lot, so I just need to get over the boundary of putting up that first video; actually second, but my first video was on the streets of Amsterdam and not really a ‘talky’ video :).*

The Glowing Wonder

During my trip to London in 2013, I discovered a new toner. I am quite picky when it comes to skincare, so to find a new product that I liked, was very exciting for me. Back home I loved it more and more and I was very sad when the bottle was empty.
Luckily I went to London around Christmas and I immediately walked to Carnaby Street to buy a new toner. The Pixi store is small, bright and full of products that make my heart skip a beat. They had plenty of bottles of the toner that I desired: the Pixi Glow Tonic. A new bottle with the same amazing liquid inside, that makes my skin look glowy and healthy.
It’s not your regular toner. The Pixi Glow Tonic helps to tone, firm and tighten the skin and exfoliates it for a healthy glow
I have definitely seen a difference in my skin, when I started to use it again. My skin looks more radiant and healthy, like I have just done a juice detox.  The application of my face make-up also has never been better. Everything blends in so seamlessly and makes it appear flawless.  I cannot wait to go back to London and stock up on more bottles of this wonder toner!

I have actually written about this product before; back in the day where my blogging skills were not very good. Since I love this product so much it is worthy of a second mention, right?
