The Best Carrot Cupcakes!
I made my first EVER carrot cupcakes with cream cheese frosting - and they were AMAZING. I know they don't exactly look like you'd pay 10 dollars for them, but they taste amazing and I think they have their charm. I found the recipe on Eurowoman, and I really loved it, so I can definitely recommend that - you can find it right here. Now I have a weeks vacation from school and if you do too you could try your luck with these cakes - that's always nice in the snowy weather.

Pictures of Scones and Winter Goals
I read something on ChriChri the other day about Christianes goals for November. I wrote down some as well and hung them on my closet door but I'm thinking I'm gonna expand that to the whole winter because they're so nice to just have as little rules and goals for yourself so you can be happy.
My list is much longer but here are some of my goals:
I hope that my goals and my food pictures can inspire someone, because I really think it's a great way to keep yourself happy through these dark times. x
My list is much longer but here are some of my goals:
- Start yoga again
- Go to bed earlier
- Try to eat more vegetarian food
- Run and walk more outside of the gym
- Bake and cook more often (hence the scones, that turned out perfect btw)
I hope that my goals and my food pictures can inspire someone, because I really think it's a great way to keep yourself happy through these dark times. x

Classic Yet Bold
This is what I wanna be wearing today, with nice bleached 50's vintage curls and dark red lipstick. Not a lot of black but still a lot of attitude. As always you can find the clothes right heeeere. Have a great day! x

Good Morning, Here's a Video
I don't know if I hope you can see this but if you can, I'm just gonna explain myself a little here. Yesterday morning I had a couple of hours to myself before school so I decided that I wanted to do a "wake up with me" kinda video. Now my camera isn't normally used for filming (which is why I've been experimenting with it a little in the past week) so some of the clips got cut a little short but I'm working on it so I can film some more! Please tell me what you think and have a great day! x

Wants From & other stories
So on this lovely Friday afternoon it's snowing outside, my hair is in desperate need of a bit of shampoo and my bankaccount is as empty as my fridge. Even though I don't have the money, I always love netshopping and I really love &otherstories' webshop, everything is just so cute and classy and I just couldn't help but fall in love with everything. These are my top 6 picks and I hope I get the money to get some of them soon, sigh! Especially a big fat knitted shirt would do wonders in this weather, especially since I think I'm getting sick. I hope you guys have a more interesting Friday night than me! x

Happy Birthday Kate!
Kate Moss is a huge style icon, and an inspiration to millions of girls around the world, personally the pictures of her I love the most are the ones of her in baggy clothes, with thick natural hair and minimal makeup. She just looked so innocent and I just love that about her. In honour of this amazingly beautiful female turning 40 years old today, I figured I would post a picture of her in her honour and for your inspiration, happy birthday Kate! x

Outfit of Yesterday
Dress - & other stories // Knit - ONLY // Shoes - TopShop
Sorry for the iphonepictures but I had a very busy day so bare with me! This dress is another one of my Christmas presents and I haven't really worn it a lot cause for some reasons I didn't really feel like the right oppertunity had presented itself but yesterday I wore it to school and since it was cold and maybe a little fancy to just be wearing a dress I threw this knit (that I absolutely love) over it. It was actually super practical especially since the dress has pockets, unlike some of my pants.. x

I'm a Happy Girl
This is a little bit personal I guess but I just wanted to share with you guys how happy I am because I've had a great day yesterday! I only had 2 lessons, so my school day was like 10-2, which is pretty survivable. Then when I got home it started snowing for the first time this winter! I'm not a huge fan of snow but it looks so gorgeous in my yard and its just nice when you're inside. The final and probably most important thing that happened yesterday was that Sine and I got our ears pierced! I got my second hole on my left ear and I'm so happy (needless to say my parents didn't quite share my enthusiasm), I really love it and I'm so happy I got it done, I'll try to show you guys soon as well! x

My Mom Hates It
For some reason my mom strongly believes that this lovely earring makes me look like I do drugs and ride motorcycles. I have to say I disagree. I got this for Christmas and well, I rarely wear huge earrings despite the fact that I have a whole bunch of them, but I really like this one, I love the simplicity of it and how light it feels in my ear, and its an easy way to look fancy when your hair is thrown up in a messy bun. The earring is from Moss Copenhagen but I sadly can't find it on their webshop anymore so I can't link you :( x

Random Obsessions of Mine
I have some weird obsessions (it comes with being a weird person with a weird personality) and after making this "collage" I'm pretty sure I can say that if I had an apartment, these things would be all I needed to fill it, these things and well my computer (and a bed and a fridge and other practical things) cause lets face it, I can't live without that. I don't know why I love kitchenmachines and plants and fish but thats who I am. Just thought I'd share it with you. As always you can find the links for everything by clicking here.

Chocolate
Again, I haven't really shown off my Christmas presents around here but here, but I felt like I wanted to show you another thing I got so here! These bad boys are so great. The colour is chocolate, the material is leather and the brand is TopShop. I really really like them and even though they need to be worn a little more to become a little less "perfect" I really really like them a lot. Just the name of the colour - chocolate - I mean how could you say no to that. x

Healthy Lunch
Over Christmas I'm sure a lot of us ate a little more than we should. Personally I don't mind a little bit of overeating once in a while but after a while I could feel that my body needed some real nutients and not just more cookies. I don't always wanna spend a long time in the kitchen so this is a perfect dish for me. It's basically ryebread, avocado and cottage cheese. It tastes so good, has a lot of natural healthy fat and still makes you feel really full because of the bread. I'm in no way trying to lose weight, but I thought it would be nice to share some of the healthy meals that I enjoy to maybe inspire other people to get into eating easy, healthy food. x

Inspirational Look of The Week
Lately my style obsession is with Kate Moss. Most people will probably understand completely. Lately I've been obsessed with the both the natural look and the contrast packed look (both looks that Kate masters to perfection). I don't know if I'll ever be bold enough to wear nothing but black lipsick makeup wise but I'm definitely doing my part to try and play more with contrast and with focusing on the natural look regarding eyes and skin. Therefore this picture serves perfectly as my source of inspiration lately and I will probably post more of Kate in the nearest future just cause well.. look at her. x

Improving Your Natural Look
I gotta be honest over the Holidays I haven't been wearing a lot of makeup or nice clothes or anything at all. I mean for Christmas and New Years I got dressed up and did my best to look nice but all the other days I basically just wore my gym clothes and my hair up, even if I was going to the gym or whatever. I think too many products can only lead to allergies or greasy skin so I only use the bare minimum of products to look presentable without makeup or beautytools. I'm not gonna give you a long detailed explanation about every single of these things I'm just gonna say that I think little things like these can really help improve your finished natural look so you dont look like you just rolled out of bed (even though that might exacly be the case). x

Baby It's Cold Outside
I haven't really shown off my Christmas presents around here, despite the fact that I actually loved every single one of them. I guess I've just been really busy doing and thinking about other things BUT this thing I just had to show off. I've wanted a fur coat for a long time. I just think they can make you look instantly badass. Fur coats are very expensive and this one is not real fur, but it still has that instant badass effect. AND it's thick enough to keep me warm all winter. x

My Personal 2013
I'm not grown up, I'm not a genius and I can't say I know everything there is to know about life yet, but what I can tell you is that I've grown tremendeously this year. I still really like skinny jeans, and I still drink coffee every morning but through this year I've changed a lot. 2013 was the year I got my braces off, the year I went to Roskilde Festival with my friend Louise and came home at 7am the next morning. This was the year I went to Rome and the year I celebrated my 17th birthday on a pub in Dublin with some of my amazing friends and classmates. This year I got fired, and this year I cried more than once, I'll admit that. But I'm ok. I'm great actually, cause this was the year where I leared to love myself for who I am. I learned that if you love something you shouldn't feel embaressed about it, you should embrace it, and I learned that just because you care about someone, doesn't mean they're healthy for you to be around. In 2013 I learned that I can walk into any store in running tights, a fur coat and leather boots, with no makeup on and my greasy hair in a bun and not care what other people might think. In 2012 I was me, but I didn't know exactly who "me" was. I'm not saying I know now, but I think I'm beginning to get a better idea.
After all this sentimeltal ego centered stuff I just wanted to remember to tell you happy newyears! I'm so happy for every one that ever looks at my blog, even if its just once or twice, I think its nice to know that people somehow maybe like what I do on here so thank you so much, I'm sending you all the love i have! x

Merry Christmas - Over and Out
Today has been a long day. A long and wonderful day. Right now its about 1.40 AM on Wednesday the 25th of December and I am on my way to bed. I just ate some of the left overs from dinner and since I felt really pretty today (for the first time in a while), I figured I would play around with some camera effects. YES I am a dork, I'll admit it, and yes I love to take fucked up pictures of myself, cause that's just how I roll. But anyways, I just wanted to say MERRY CHRISTMAS! And I'll tell you all about my lovely celebration of Christmas Eve, and what I got when I wake up tomorrow. Until then, goodnight and sweet dreams x

Rebuilding
Being a teenager is confusing and annoying and frustrating as fuck. That being said it's rare that I break down completely. This weekend I broke down completely. Monday morning was probably the hardest morning this year so far, and the first time where I didn't feel like going to school. Monday started off horrible, and I went home from school because I couldn't keep myself together or focused on anything. So yea I went home and after feeling bad for myself for an hour or two I started to build myself up again. I realised that my happiness has to depend on me. No one else, just me. And I realised that it's not selfish of me to do things that are right for me, or want what's best for me, and if it is selfish then call me selfish I couldn't care less. After some improvised yoga on my livingroom floor with some Nirvana playing loud in the bacground, I actually started feeling like a great person again (don't ask how that helped it just did). For once I spend the entire evening watching sex & the city and talking to Maria, not caring about anything but my own happiness. Something I hadn't done in a long time, and it felt great! The past two mornings, I haven't started school until 10, so I've used my mornings to really be nice to myself. Tuesday I put on a cute pyjamas, made a big cup of coffee, and cut up some fruit, lid a couple of candles in my room, turned on some nice music and ate breakfast in bed. Today I forced myself to get up early and go out for a run/ walk in the woods where I live. The weather was lovely and it wasn't too cold, and even though I felt dead when I got home, my whole day has seemed better. Today was the best day in a long time. School was great, I worked out and I got a high mark on my english paper, and most important, I felt great about myself the whole day. If anyone actually reads this I hope you remember to do something great for yourself every day, you should be the most important person in your life, no matter what. Lots of love and goodnight x

Outfit: All Black Everything
Knit - Only // Bodycon Dress - Primark // Shoes - Filippa K // Rings - H&M
Today seemed like a great day for black. I'm not sad or anything (well I was a little bit depressed when I found out one of my favourite shirts had shrunken into what looked like something my 8 year old cousin would have trouble fitting into, but besides that), I just wanted to wear something that wasnt jeans. I love my bodycon dress, I love how it's casual and fancy at the same time and how it hugs my body. Well this is what I wore today anyways x

Motivated
Last night I watched the most inspiring documentary called "Beyond Expectations" about this australian mom who right after giving birth to her second child, started a new lifestyle in order to 9 months later participate in a sportsmodeling contest. This woman is an amazing human being, inspiring and positive, and her results were amazing. Just watching the documentary made me wanna be a better person and be more positive and active and even though I have no intention of becoming a sportsmodel, I think it's nice to think that a little efford makes a difference in the long hall. So today when my school didn't start until 2 pm, I decided to do something nice for myself, so I put on my big coat, and made myself a nice cup of coffee, put my shape-ups on and went for a nice walk in the woods where I live. When I got home I watched some random tv and lifted some weights (not like hardcore, just a little bit) and went to school for my p.e. class. Even though I've been keeping myself active all day, I feel more energetic than I have in weeks. I know that I won't be able to do this every day, but taking a break from sitting still inside is definitely going to help me get through the winter. Oh, that and the fact that its december soon! x
