This is another super late haul! I bought these products in the last weeks of the sales period, so you can imagine how delay I’m on sharing my posts…
I usually just buy new products from The Body Shop during the sales because I guess they’re a little bit expensive although worth the investment but during these days we can find some really great deals! Actually, I just started to buy TBS
products some time ago, during the sales period too.
This time I bought a “Born Lippy” Strawberry lip balm . It wasn’t actually on sale, but I was a little bit curious about this one and the smell is so amazing! I guess it was about 3€ and there was also in other flavors and colors but I just preferred this one.
I also took advantage of the sale on this body butter. It was with 50% off, who can resist this kind of deals? Its scent is vanilla and I just love it! It is a Duo Body Butter , because half is for normal skin and the other half is for very dry skin. I guess I will keep this one for summer time, when the skin needs more moisture. I guess the regular price is 16€ so I just paid 8€ for it.
The attendant was kind enough to offer me some freebies (yay! Who doesn’t love freebies?). She gave me 2 Vitamin E Moisture Cream and one Tea Tree Oil sample.
Do you like shopping on TBS? What are your favorite products?

About two weeks ago my mom bought me these yummy snacks! Of course they didn’t last more than two or three days with me! Yes I’m really greedy especially with chocolate and when I have to study (and that was the case) I love to eat some sweet snacks.
It was the first time that I tried them both and I loved them!
So the first is a bar of Milka chocolate with Oreo. Dark chocolate is my
favorite but I also can’t say no to a Milka one and this one, is actually the perfect combo since I also love Oreos! It is so good; it has a lot of the Oreo cream (which is my favorite part of the cookie, lol) and some pieces of the “real cookie”.
The other one has cornflakes and raisins covered with Milka chocolate. This snack is also pretty good; I loved the crispy feeling with the chocolate. Definitely another yummy snack!
Have you ever tried these snacks? Which one do you/would you prefer?

These days I guess I’ve been pretty lazy to make some “better” outfits. I’m so tired of winter and rain! This winter it rained a lot and I end up, now, just wearing the same old clothes and outfits… but here it is one different…
I usually prefer wearing jeans, but this time I opted for my black leggings to combine with this camel knitted long sweater or maybe dress (I really
didn’t know if it is a dress or just a long sweater) and brown high knee boots. To add some “color” I chose my burgundy scarf (you already know I much I love this color) and as accessory I just have my clock necklace.
This look is pretty simple and was also so comfy and warm for another grey and cold day of winter!
What do you think about it? Let me know! :)

Hi everyone! I’ve been so absent from Luuux! I really miss it but college this semester has been pretty tough and I don’t have that much time to write as I wish, so now, that I just started two weeks of vacation (vacation? Nope, time to study!) I hope to have some free minutes to post about these things that I have been keeping for this long!
This is actually the oldest post that I wanted
to share with you, I just bought these two little things right when I started classes but since then, I never had time to post about them!
So this was what I bought:
-Invisible gel strips: Actually this was the second time that I bought a pair of these stripes, they’re great when you have a pair of shoes that really hurts you on the back of your heel and you want or need to wear them anyways. They were about 5€ and totally worth the money!
- Hair doughnut: I bought this one at H&M and was 2.95€. I read about these little things in a fashion blog and I was pretty interested in of these because I really like buns but never understood how those girls could make them look so perfect. But now I know: hair doughnuts! They make a huge difference!
And that’s all! Well, I hope to post these days with some regularity and comment all the posts of you guys that I’ve been missing. Wish me luck with my goals, ahahah!

Another rainy day, another opportunity to wear my Hunter rain boots! I know probably I’m starting to be annoying with all the talking about them but I’m so happy with this buy, I really look like a child with a new toy, lol. And talking about annoying, talking about burgundy, is it already annoying for you? Ok, maybe it’s about time to give it a break, but first let me share this look with
you :)
So this was another darker look, perfect for winter, as I love. I really like to see burgundy and black; looks pretty good and makes a sober look a little bit “funnier” and not so boring.
What do you think about this look? Let me know your thoughts! :)

Last week, me and my friend decided to go to the mall to see what was still in sales and also the new collection in stores. We are still in break between the semesters so we have some free time to spend doing the things that we love.
So for me, the sales are pretty much over, I can’t find things that I really like or need or neither in my size so I checked the new arrivals and bought some
things!
In Zara , I found these super cute faux leather shorts . They were 22.95€ and in the front they have this quilted effect that I really liked. Actually, I saw them first in their site and didn’t like them but in person, I felt in love! I already had a pair of faux leather shorts but they were one of those “stupid buys” because I bought them some years ago, during the sales, without try them on and when I arrived home, I tried them and they’re larger than I thought! I bought the size that I usually wear but they were huge and just looking to them I didn’t notice that. :( Anyways, these ones fit me fine!
Also browsing the H&M site I found some colored high waisted jeans for just 20€ so I really had to pass by this store to bring a pair of military green jeans with me. This color was on the spotlight during fall/winter and I’m glad it still is for the spring; it’s not a neutral color but I guess in some cases it can “work” as if it was! So this was another great buy for me :)
What do you think about my purchases? Would you buy any of these pieces?
What do you think about the new S/S collections?

Time to another OOTD post! I know, I write these posts a lot, but these are the ones that I love the most and I hope you enjoy them as well :)
This time I bring you a simple winter look, which actually you can find similar here . This time once it wasn’t raining I put my Hunter rain boots aside and picked my beloved combat boots. It was also colder so I chose this grey knitted jumper. Once
again, the red jacket grabbed all the attention from this casual look.
Overall, I really like this color combo. Usually I prefer darker looks for winter, and this is probably half “dark” and half “colorful/vibrant” but I just love it anyways, this red coat was definitely a great buy!
I just notice that everything that I’m wearing is from Zara except the jumper that is from Bershka. Yes, Zara, as you may know is my favorite store to buy clothes :p
What do you think about this look?

Burgundy is pretty much everywhere in my OOTD posts don’t you think? Maybe I’m starting to be repetitive but I really like this color and I’m wearing it a lot during this season. This time I just picked a really, really casual look with some jeans.
Once it’s been pretty cold, I don’t have other solution otherwise layering, so under the knitted jumper I have my denim shirt and I also
picked my burgundy scarf to warm up in the neck area. I really love scarfs: knitted for fall/winter and those with lighter fabrics for a fresher day of spring! Talking about spring; please come fast! I can’t wait to wear lighter clothes and feel the sun heat in my face!
Usually I pick boots/shoes and coat in the same color but this time I decided to wear these beige boots (that are actually great for spring!) and my black coat and bag. Overall I guess it doesn’t look bad and it’s always good to change a bit. What do you think about it?

If you already read some of my posts, you already know that I love all black looks and that burgundy is one of my favorite colors for this season (or maybe just THE favorite one).
So this was what I wore some days ago: black skinny jeans, black military boots, a kind of a striped b/w jumper with black studs on the shoulders and my super cute and warm burgundy scarf. Ok, this may not be a
total black look, but it’s pretty dark and almost “fits” in that category of outfits.
I really like this kind of looks for winter once I prefer darker outfits during this season (but that doesn’t mean that I don’t wear lighter ones). What do you think about it?

Remember this and this haul posts? Well, finally here it is a look with those pieces that I bought during the sales time!
I took advantage of some rainy days to wear for the first time my Hunter rain boots and I have to say that I’m totally in love with them! They’re so comfy and look so good with my red coat lol, don’t you think?
I guess this is one of my favorite looks that I
wore during this winter (and without something burgundy!). This coat was definitely a great buy, I really love this vibrant red, makes some really classy looks and the Hunter, although being rain boots, they’re also pretty classy and look great in a “cosmopolitan look”. I just added my black infinity scarf to look more “sober” and once there was many red in this look with the coat and the plaid shirt.
Sorry for the bad pictures, the lights wasn’t that great :s
