Weekly Favourites: I Want to Live in Paris


 When all the rush and worries about maturita (final exams here in the Czech Republic) is gone, there is nothing left, nothing to do. Accept entrance exams for college and many other things going on in my live.  It is weird not to go to school. I feel like I am missing something. However, without school, it means I have more time for you! I have not talked to all of you for ages and I missed it so much, you cannot even imagine.

 This week started in Prague. I was there for two days. I feel now more confident in this city. I stopped by in Lush, bookshop and my favourite patisserie called "Boulangerie de Paris". If you find yourself in Prague, definitely go there and tag me in your instagram photo, because the food from there tastes just like heaven! I kinda like this city full of life and people....mainly tourists (in the city center).

 While I was in the bookshop, I went straight to the section with books in English. I wanted to see what treasures it hides. I was looking through the shelves, when I saw THE one and only book I longed for. How to Be Parisian Wherever You Are. Okay...that is not the truth...I want to own too many books...When it comes to books, my heart starts racing. My arm just quicky grabed the center of my universe (of that moment) and I held it in my arms just like mother holds her child, pressing maybe too much on my chest, until I got to the cashier. I thought they do not sell it in our country. I looked on the internet earlier and could not find it anywhere and now I have it. Insane. I am more than half way through now and I can tell you, it is funny and it makes you move to Paris and eat baguettes or croissants every morning.

 Maybelline Color Sensational 527 Lady Red. I mentioned this beautiful red lipstick many times. It lasts on your lips (about half a day and you can eat, drink whatever you want), never smudges. I got compliments on in many times. It does not dry out your lips, which is very pleasant. I love the full colour of this product.

 As I said earlier, in Prague I also went to Lush. I bought bubble bath called 'Ultraviolet'. It smells like jasmin and violet. You know how much I love my flowers. I actually haven't tried it yet, but I think this Sunday evening is the right time to give it a go.

 The black bikini top in the photo above I bought from F&F. It was super cheap. I think it looks very chick and underlines woman's figure. Especially the ruffles. The midi rings in the picture above are from 'I am' and glasses from GATE.


Share with me your favourites for this week, I always want to hear it!


Love,
Lucy

Graffiti & Sneakers


 Where is the time, when I was in Prague? You can find on every corner something new, something that can surprise you. Well, I was pretty delighted when I bumped into these graffiti that day. Simple art on the street, really photogenic, hiding deeper meaning. Yeah, maybe I am overthinking everything.

Monday Talk


 Let me just say, last week was the busiest week in past few months. I had to do a loads of work to school, because it was the last week we could improve our grades. That is why there was no new articles. Basically, from now my summer holidays are at its beginning. I have to admit, all I want to do is just watch Hart of Dixie and read The Fault in Our Stars with a cup of tea in my hand. I need to relax before my last year of high school starts. However there is some work I want to do during the summer holidays. For example read the books for final exams or the summer musical school I enrolled. After all I love being busy. It gives me the feeling I am not usless. (ha-ha)

 Also I wanted to say that because of the more time on my hands, you can expect more articles and adventures. This Wednesday and Thursday I am going to Prague. I am thinking about a little "Follow me around" type of vlog. What do you think about it? Will see....I am planning on a little bit of shopping while I am there and meeting my friend from summer camp. (Which I am pretty excited about, because I haven't seen her for a year.) 

 Can we also talk about how perfect is the new Ed Sheeran's music album? I love it so much! I cannot stop listening to it. His songs are my best friends right now. It is contagious. They got under my skin and don't want to get out.

What are your plans for the summer holidays?

Love life,
Lucy

What I Got: Maybelline


 Some of you may know that I was a finalist in the competition with Maybelline. The finale was held in four stare hotel NH Prague. I have to say, I am not used to luxurious things/hotels. I felt so special that day. I even haven't lost myself in Prague. Really suprising. Thank you Google maps! Because on my way to the hotel, I bumbed into (not literally...haha) shopping center, it was the first place I went to (right after metro of course). I didn't bought anything, because I thought that I will have time later that day (So wrong Lucy!). But I was in heaven when I saw MAC and Bobbi Brown stores (it was like villager came to the city). In my eyes were lights flickering. Yeah...I am crazy, I know... 
 I was there only for 15 minutes, than I had to go get myself to the hotel. I was really overwhelmed when they told me to go to the upper hotel by cableway. I actually thought thay are kidding. But nope...it was all true. I had to overcome my fear of hights, but the calming music and other people in the cableway distracted me from looking down on the space between ground and me.
