"Backstage lights & homemade mascara"

So another exam has come and passed, along with the 2 hours of sleep and 3 pots of coffee before it and 13 hours of sleep after and I have one day before I have to start studying for the next (and LAST) one next friday.

And because I was so, so bored (this is what happens when you're stuck inside for too long) and since season one of Ugly Betty was downloading way too slow, of course I did what every girl does: played dress up! Except it was make up!






















Next time I jump my make-up case I am definitely taking my darling girl for the ride because she is amazing with a brush and a pot of make-up in her hands!

"Outfit; Sunny days bring the girls out""

I am so sorry for the lack of outfit posts lately but I don't think I've been out of the house for anything more than running in the morning. Life is a bit complicated right now & I have two more exams to go (physiology and biochemistry) until I am actually free on the 18th.

Anyways, today my best friend Minnie finally dragged me out into the real world (sun & crowds!) and we went to the mall and had our first real time together in what feels like ages. It felt so good seeing a friendly face again :)

She looked absolutely lovely (as usual)


& of course she had to show off the (amazing!) new pair of jeans she's brought. If I weren't such a good friend (and if the jeans weren't a size too small, ahem) I would have stolen them!





Her lovely ring.


My fuel.


I wore the dress again (it's the perfect summer dress really), except as an actual dress and not skirt this time.

"Bienvenue"

I did not think that my love for Gaspard Ulliel could get any bigger after this post by Miss at la Playa (and consequently after this clip from Paris Je T'aime) but was I wrong or what?

Longchamp campaign with Miss Kate Moss and the talented Gaspard. I can't wait for these to make print, I know what's going on my inspirational wall for sure now.

"Outfit; Another grey line on the calendar"

Anatomy exam number two is down and gone. My way of celebration was doing something that I haven't done in ages: watch a movie (Death at a Funeral), sleep and actually wake up after the sun rises. I am a girl of small pleasures, really ;)

Unfortunately, some more studying must ensue but the good thing is that it's not as urgent as the Anatomy ones (think of them like the mecca of all med school exams really). Who knows, I might even get enough sleep in the following weeks.

This is my exam look number two. Yup, still trying the whole serious student thing:




















Of course, no exam celebration could be held without the most important post-exam tradition: The Shopping (capital letters needed!):






dress (worn as skirt): Mango, vest: Mango, lace top: Mango, heels: Zara, necklace: Swarovski
