My 2017 in pictures - part1




Is there a better way to start a new year than reflecting on your last one and making new plans for the future?I don't think so. Reminding myself about how crazy 2017 was  , I wanted to share with you my journey,but this will take two posts.I have too many pictures! :)
Welcome to my world.PRESS PLAY

January

I started 2017 by surprising my mom with a trip home. I took 5 days off to spend time with her and my grandma.
I was also planning my wedding that was due in June, so I was trying different bridal looks .

February

High school dream came true .We finally got the chance to see Green Day , and it was EPIC.
On Valentine's day Nick had to work until late,so I went to pick him from work and we went to dine randomly at a local restaurant.









March

March was busy . At the beginning of the month I took another trip back home to choose the menus for the wedding.
Unfortunately, Nick couldn't come with me so I was relying on my mom to be with me everywhere.
While I was away,Nick got a bad injury that required more than a month to heal.





April

I booked a flight for my mom and my grandma to come and visit us for Easter .It was the first time my grandma visited the UK so she was extremly excited .
End of April brought us Nicks birthday so I planned a surprise trip to Fuerteventura and David , his brother , joined us.







May

One month before the wedding . I was very stressed, we still had to plan a lot of things ,I still had to lose some weight to fit my dress .Needless to say , the last 2 months before our wedding the only thing that I was thinking about was how to organize the wedding.
On my birthday we dinned at Jamie Oliver's Restaurant.



June

Wedding mood -ON !
Spoiler alert: I didn't end up doing my own makeup.








Special thanks to Mihai Stefan for the pics.
We would like to thank everyone that attended our wedding.You are freakin' amazing.

Part 2 of 2017 will come soon.

Design your perfect vintage room


              I'm so happy that in a couple of days we'll be on holiday and I am sure that you are too !
I will have time to clean my house on Friday and to do a little bit of shopping on Saturday.I have some ideas about what I will cook for Christmas , I have some recipes that I only cook for special occasions .
              Looking at my neighbors houses , I realize that I didn't have the time to decorate my house.
Speaking of decorations, I still have to buy some things for my makeup room , like a chandelier , lights and maybe a chaise lounge .
             My makeup room certainly has some vintage accents,so I thought that maybe I should give you some ideas if you are planning to have a vintage room.
              Browsing online,I stumbled upon some pretty pieces that will make your room more chic.

Plan the perfect birthday surprise


  After a rainy day full of fog ,it was inevitable that nostalgia kicked in.Am I the only person that thinks about summer and summer holidays when it's rainy and dark outside? I just stare outside with my mind wandering at warmer places . Today I was thinking about my trip to the Canary Islands.This is how it all started:

      Early March,I was already thinking about a birthday gift for my half,even if his birthday is at the end of April.I was very indecisive about what should I buy him. Should I buy him a phone ? Should I throw him a birthday party ? Ladies , you know the struggle.
      Looking online,I see an image with a beach.White sand,blue water,blue sky.I tell myself: 'Perfect , that's a win-win!'.
      But...where should we go ? What can we visit and what activities can we have ?He's a sporty guy so I know for sure that he's not going to lie on the beach all day .
      Next phase: ask some coworkers about their favourite holidays.Thankfully,I have asked the right person and he told me without hesitation: Fuerteventura ! You got the sand,the good weather , the food, snorkeling , aqua parks , buggies , you name it!











And I am so so glad that we went there!Believe me , in 4 days you cannot get enough of that amazing island.It's gorgeous, it's everything I have been told it would be and more!
Websites like holidaygems.co.uk are the best places to book a holiday at a low price,I always book my holiday online.
Have you been on a holiday this year?

Everyday is Christmas - New music from SIA


It's that time of the year!
I really hope that you follow me on instagram, if you do you would have seen that yesterday it snowed and on my gosh,it was sooo pretty!I literally stayed for 10 minutes looking out my window and just stared at the big snowflakes.
At the radio whenever I hear a Christmas song it just brings me so much joy!Christmas is almost here.
Did you buy gifts for your loved ones?
Speaking of gifts, I have received  Sia's new Christmas album and it's fantastic.
With 10 new songs recorded ,it was such a lovely surprise to see that Sia recorded her original songs and didn't do covers for Christmas songs, like the majority of the artists.
My favourite song from the album Everyday is Christmas is ' Santa's Coming for us' and it's such a catchy song that you immediately start dancing to the rhythm.






If you love Christmas songs then I would recommend you to buy 'Everyday is Christmas' by Sia and follow her on her social media platforms:
