My Birthday Presents & Thrift Haul

Hello everyone!

I´m back and something had changed!...

I´m 18 now!

So, I have a little birthday present haul and some other stuff I got to show you!

First, I got the "Miss Dior Eau de Parfum" by Dior from my mum! I already had chosen this scent before because I simply love it. Such a sweet and delicious fragrance perfect for spring/summer!

I also got my first two "Manhattan" lipsticks from her. I love those colours: a beautiful peachy coral and a pinkish berry colour (39C & 53Z)! They stay a really long time and are really moisturizing!

My grandma gave me a silver cutlery set for 12 persons! I was really happy about it because I think that such a set is a really awesome and handy gift for grown-ups for their future life.

The forks, spoons and knives have such a nice floral imprinting and are huge in contrast to modern cutlery! I love it!

My dad gave me this guidebook about Japan with all interesting and handy informations about this country! This summer, my boyfriend and I, we will visit Japan and South Korea, so it´s awesome to have such a guide. I love the book cover, too!

From my relatives, I also got some money to save up for my trip in summer! From others, I got H&M, cinema or book store gitft cards!...

...And I got a bunch of flowers! Awesome!

All in all I got awesome presents and my birthday party with my family was gorgeous, too!

This weekend, I went to my local thrift store to find some intersting pieces. All I got was a leather shoulder bag. I love its used look and that it has so many space inside. I only paid 2.50€!

After, I went to a fleamarket in my town and found a MCM München shoulder bag with two little extra purses and an extra handy/sunglasses purse! An awesome find for only 14€!

After all, I went to H&M to buy some jewellry! I got an awesome copper choker necklace and a ring set!

I love the futuristic touch of the necklace I got for 8€ and the 4 different coloured rings for 4€!

Hope you´d enjoyed this haul!

Now, I´m looking forward to get my nelly.de order! I bought one pair of the Jeffrey Campbell Lita look-a-likes in brown leather!

I also register my self to ebay now to buy and sell some things! I already focus some rings and a bracelet!..

Have a nice evening!

Love, Julia ♥

OOTD 02/04/2012 & Little Thrift Haul

Hello everyone!

Today, I have a OOTD for you! I wore it yesterday as I went shopping with my boyfriend. I combined a flower patterned blouse with a black leather jacket to give the whole outfit more edginess.

I also have some thrift finds I´m gonna to show you!

There was a 50% off sale at my local thrift store so I thought I could made some bargains which I really did.

Bag: thrifted
Belt: thrifted

For jewelry I wore:

Metallic bracelet: COS

Golden necklace: from grandma
Watch: from grandma
Earrings: No Brand
Rings: H&M, selfmade

My grandma gave me this awesome watch because I really like such old ones. I love it!

My first thrifted piece is this scarf. I love the colours because they are perfect for spring. It was 50% off sale, so I got this for 1€.

Patrick Süskind´s "Das Parfum" is one of the most famous books ever. I really love it and the film, so I was happy as a found this in my thift store for only 0,25€!

At the moment, I really love metallic colours and especially copper, so I was happy as I found this metallic belt for only 1€!

I only found one clothing item: this black shirt which has a collar like a blouse. I love the different textures of it and its fit.

I also went to H&M and found this copper bracelet. I simply love it because it matches perfectly to my COS bracelet I bought in France. It was about 5€.

Collective Haul! °2

Hello everyone!

After a long nerve-wracking week with 4 written exams for my school leaving examination, I´m finally back with a collective haul!

Basically, I found vintage pieces in my favourite local thrift stores and some jewelry.

First, I went to H&M to buy a golden chunky necklace for my graduation ceremony outfit. I found this one and I really love it. I paid 15€ for it!

For my exams, I got this as a lucky charm. It´s a beautiful brooch from a fleamarket!

On Saturday, I went to the fleamarket in my town and I found those awesome platform heels there! They fit great and I only had to pay 3€ for them!

I got this flowery blue blouse from my favourite local thrift store for only 3€. I love the detaling!

  

I got this grey semi-transparent blouse there, too. I love the pattern and its fit. I also paid 3€.

Last week, my grandma gave me this silver glittery turtleneck pullover with short sleeves.She found it in her closet and thought it will fit me well. Right!

On Saturday, I went to another thrift store and found this awesome patterned short sleeve blouse. I love the details and its fit. I only paid 5€!

For 5€, I also found this shirt with flowery prints on it. I think the colours are great and perfect for spring/summer!

But, the biggest bargain and treasure is this light blue blazer jacket. It´s a real "Hermes Paris" one as the label on it says. I researched a little bit in the internet and I´m right! I don´t know its original price but I think that it was more than 1000€! I only paid 25€!!

Today, I went to a book shop to find some bargains because this store will close soon. I found this book with a lot of photographs and explanations about architecture from the ancient rome to the modern. I only paid 1€! (30€)

 Hope you´d enjoyed my haul!

In a little while, I meet up with my grandma to go to a little cafe because I haven´t any school this week!

Have a great day!

Love, Julia ♥

Collective Haul!

Hello everyone!

I´m finally back with a collective haul! I purchased those things in the last few weeks and I hope you´ll like them!

Recently, I´m really busy with learning for my A-levels next week!! I can´t believe that those exams are that close!..

Yesterday, I went to my favorite local secondhand shop. There, I found a few awesome things!

I always dig into the huge boxes with silken carrés to find some awesome cloths. This time I made an gorgeous find because I found a "real" Hèrmes carré! The label on it shows the orginality but I can´t believe that it is a real one. I love it anyway because I only paid 1€ for it!

I also found this cute little shoulder bag which is perfect for spring/summer. I love the burgundy colour an its used look. I paid 1.50€ for it!

Another great bargain is this huge clutch-like bag. I really like the minimalistic design and I think it´s perfect for summer. It had only cost 2€!

Finally, my ordered DVD arrived! I simply love this movie and if you are interested, you can read through the summary here! This DVD is a special edition with 24 pages of background informations. 

Since several weeks, I use this "alverde" foundation in "10 light beige". It´s quit of chemical ingredients and is only based on natural substances. It had cost around 3€.

Last week, I went to H&M to look through their new collection. There, I bought this floral patterned blouse which I really like. I´m excited to wear it in spring/summer! I paid 20€ for it!

 I also bought those light beige-grey pants which fit really awesome. Last year I bought them in black and I loved them! They had only cost around 15€!

Last but not least, I went to "Deichmann" to search for some simple black pumps! I love the chunky heel and its fit! They look awesome to my "Versace for H&M"- dress which I´m going to wear on my graduation!

I paid 25€ for them!

Hope you´d enjoyed this haul!

Have a great weekend!

Love, Julia ♥

Book Review: "Vintage Fashion - Collecting and Wearing Designer Classics 1900-1990"

 Hello everyone!

Recently, I´m really busy with learning for my "A levels"! I´m so excited because they will start in only a month! I hope evrything will be fine!

Today, I have a little book review for you! I actually also wanted to show you another book and a DVD but I havn´t received them yet. I ordered them on the internet and there are some delivery problems.

The book I´m going present is about the fashion and the styles from the past century, from 1900 to 1990.

The pictures and the illustrations show typical shapes, colours, fabrics or pattern from each decade. The annexed texts explain each chapter very detailed and articulately.

 I took some pictures from the interior to show you some details!

The last thing I´m going to show you is this awesome nailpolish! I bought it from the new Catrice collection and it´s called "Genious In The Bottle". It´s a mixture between gold, green and blue and this changing colour reminds me a lot of the Chanel "531 Peridot" from their latest make-up collection! This one is much cheaper (around 3€) and looks exactly like the Chanel one, I think!

Hope you´d liked this review and I wish you all a great start into the new week!

Love, Julia ♥
