If you are a fan of Game of Thrones then you probably heard about the city of Dubrovnik, if not today is the perfect opportunity. Dubrovnik is an ancient city on the Adriatic Sea in southern Croatia. It is one of the most famous tourist destinations in the Mediterranean Sea. The rich history, clear Adriatic sea, and breathtaking views are only half of the reasons you need to put Dubrovnik on your travel bucket list.

When was the last time you went on a road trip?
With the work, family, and additional responsibilities squeezing in a road trip can be pretty difficult. Well, when the travel bug starts to make you only think about all the places you want to visit, a road trip might be the right option. Hopefully, you are in a place where you can travel as unfortunately a lot of people are still not able to.

Who loves Summer skincare?
Depending on the season, our skin needs different things. Skincare is something so personal and unique as we all have different skin types. What may work for someone doesn't mean that it will work for you. Finding those specific skincare products that your skin will love and benefit from is not that easy. In the sea of skincare products here are 6 of them you should try this Summer.
I asked some bloggers to share their must skincare products for the Summer months. There is a variety of amazing products. I'm sure you are going to find at least one of them that will work wonders for your skin.

Skincare is important, that's something we all probably realized by now. I'm sure that you are following bloggers and YouTubers who talk about skincare and beauty. When you see their skincare collection and when you see yours, you probably notice a big difference. I know that not a lot of people can afford a huge skincare collection. In fact, you don't even need to have tons of skincare products from the most luxurious brands. Sometimes it is even enough to have that one product that can do multiple jobs.

I honestly believe that music has such a big power. In some way music shapes us as a person. I don't think that there has been day in my life without music. I like to have it as a background when I'm doing things as it puts me in such a good mood.

Although I love sunny weather my regime changes as I show more skin and sometimes it need some help to look good. The hot weather and sun can damage it and make it not so great. I don't actually like to use chemicals and artificial products on my skin so I'm always trying to find natural replacement.

My Summer can finally begin. I can't even tell you how happy and excited I am right now. I feel so motivated and ready to do so much of the things I've been wanting to do for so long. I want this Summer to be very productive and exciting.

Whenever I’m not sure what I want to make for a lunch pasta is my go to option. I just love it so much. The variety of dishes that you can make with it is incredible. From mac and cheese (all time lover) to pasta bolognese. I realized that in the Summer I always choose zucchini carbonara. This is a dish that I discovered this Summer and made it so many times. Although it's originally based on eggs, bacon and black pepper this is my vegetable variation. My family and I absolutely love it.

Hello!
I love nail art but I'm not very good at it. Actually I suck at it. My problem is that I'm not really patience. Right after I painted my nails I would start to do something and ruin it. And if I ruin only one nail I'll remove nail polish from all of them...I know I'm a weirdo. Yesterday I was scrolling true (you guess it) Pinterest and I found simple and cute nail art so I decided to try it out. I went for this two color nail design. I mist say that I'm pretty pleased how it turn out cause as I said I'm not expert in this kind of think...or any kind of things to be honest.
I just painted my nails with Essence "146 that's what I mint!". You all know how much I love this color. I think it' so pretty. I used striping tape to tape off the tips and add 2 coats of the Essence " 149 hello marshmallow!". I think these colors go well together. When it dried on the top I put Essence "Quick dry top coat". I put it because I want it to last longer I wanted to protect my nail polish against chipping.
As I said I'm not good at this and I did it just for fun. I think that this look prettier than just one color nail. Next time I'm sure it would be much better.
What do you think of my nail art attempt?

Hello!!
These couple of months I had a little shopping spree. I needed to fresh up my wardrobe for summer days. I went in some of my favorite shops and bought few clothing items. I'm not one of the people that will go to shop and buy everything they see. If i see something I like I first stop and think do I really need that item and do I have to style it with something that I already have and of course if the price is worthy of its quality. . After I thought about all these stuff then I buy it. Sometimes I feel that I act like a old lady but I just don't want to buy something that will stand in my closet I that I'll trow away.
And yes I'm worst person for shopping. I need to see and touch everything..it annoys my mother :). I like to just walk trough shops and finding little cute hidden peaces. Thing that I don't like is trying out. I just don't like it at all. I'll rather not buy the item that I like than to try it out in small cabin in shop. I have feel that somebody will bump while I'm changing...no, no I would rather avoid that.
Ok now that I told you all that irrelevant things I think it's time that I show what I got!!
I bought this denim shirt few months ago and I love it so much. It have old- fashioned buttons that look really charming. On the shoulders and back it has these sewn details. I think that it look more interesting with these details and that it's not so boring. It look cute unbuttoned too. I like to wear T-shirt with straps underneath. I think that you can never go wrong with denim because it will always be in fashion. :)
The print on this shirt is so cute. I'm very into printed T-shirts. Material is so light and easy. It's a little bit baggy and I really like that. I don't like small and tight shirts. I'm very into blue and green colors. And this is such a beautiful blue. I think that there is not too much to say about it except that it's pretty.
I think that these item is my fave from all the others. I bought it recently and I think it's so lovely. It's loose long sleeves shirt. I absolutely love that "college" touch. It's nice gray color. It have little bat sleeves and I never had shirt like that. I think that I would wear it in chilly summer night. But I'll wore it much more in Fall days. Hope that I'll found more shirts like this one.
These item is something surely very out of my comfort zone. It's these really cute printed baggy pants. I never wore something like that. I'm more of jeans and leggings type of girl. They are really comfy and soft. I think that ,if I find the courage, I'll style it with white shirt and black sandals.
As I said I really like green color. This blouse is in the most beautiful shade of green. It's sheer and delicate. I like that the back side is longer that a front one. It look really pretty. I wore it tucked into my pants. It is great about this kind of blouses that you can live it out and it will look like different outfit.
And the last item is MAD T - shirt. I bought in in the same store that I bought long sleeve one. They were both on sale what is beyond doubt great thing. It is as well really good quality. I think that the sing is so funny and charismatic. It's baggy and simple. I wore it yesterday and it's sheer so it don't sticking to my skin. What is very good because it was so hot and I hate that sticky feeling.
That is all from my little haul. Hope you liked it. I think that I didn't do haul from last Summer. Honestly don't know why.
Write to you soon!! xo

Hello!!
Music is thing that I can't live without. It's just best thing ever. I always have headphones in my ears and I'm always on YouTube looking for new songs. These days I've been obsessed with Ed Sheeran's new album. It's just asdhfdigfgh. I listened it literally all day and night. Every song in that album is just amazing. First time that I heard it I got chills. To be honest some songs put tears on my eyes. My absolutely favorite song from this album is "I'm a mess" & "Nina". Oh they'r just so amazing. First thing that I search in YouTube is this album.
Except Ed's new album and some other songs I couldn't found songs that will win me. And then I went 8tracks Radio for the first time and run into "The Ultimate Summer Playlist". I'm in trans from the first song. It's like best dance, party, summer playlist. Best thing is that IT HAVE 67 SONGS. I can't realize why didn't I go to 8tracks Radio sooner. So for next 4 hours and 24 minutes I'm going to listen this playlist. hehe

In the hot Summer days I don't really wear a lot of makeup. Reason is that I'm too lazy and it'll just melt on my face. I usually put makeup when I'm going to a city or party. But even then if my skin is good I don't like to put much foundation or BB cream. I like natural and light makeup. Today I decided to show you what makeup product do I use.
Since I have oily skin I start of with using Pure Active Carbon Peeling. It really help me with acne's and redness. It smooths and hydrates my skin. After I wash and dry my skin I use Nivea Soft Cream. It hydrates skin with jojoba oil and moisturizes and protects natural structure of skin with vitamin E. It' s quickly absorbed, nourishes the skin and makes it soft and supple. I think that it's really important to put cream before foundation because it prevents drying of the skin, and makeup lasts longer. Especially in the summer times.
First makeup product that I'm using is Essence Stay Natural Concealer in "01 soft beige". I just dab it under my eyes. I do it before foundation because I have big under eye dark circles and redness around my nose. I blend it with my fingers because I think that it blend better that way. Sometimes I just use concealer if I have good skin day. I think that it's not always necessary to use a lot of foundation or BB cream.
For my foundation I'm using Maybelline New Affinitone foundation in "14 creamy beige". I just tap it on my face and then I bland it. I have really big eye circles so sometimes I put my concealer over again. Just to be completely sure that I cover them well.
Next up are eyebrows. Mine are really black and thick and they are really hard to get in shape. I'm using Essence Quattro Eyeshadow in "o7 over the taupe" this second chocolate brown color. And also I'm using angled brush. Next step is my eyes. I'm again using this Essence eyeshadow pallet. I'm applying this lightest shade. It's a really pretty champagne color with a little bit of shimmer. I think it's perfect color for natural every day look. I'm adding a darker shade in outer corners of my eye and blending it in to crease.
Now I'm taking both colors and putting them on the bottom lash line. I'm adding this dark color on the out part of my eye and putting the lighter color on the inside of my eye. For eyeliner I'm using a black pencil and this one is AVON ColorTrend in "Glitterati grey". Honestly I'm not the best in this. But I'm getting better and better. Then I ad a little bit of black pencil on my lower lash line.
Next up is mascara. I think that mascara give that finish touch. I'm using Eveline Cosmetic Big Volume Lash Professional Mascara. I'm not really a big fan of mascaras but I really like this one. It separate my lashes and give them volume.
After mascara I'm powdering my face. I'm using Catrice Cosmetics All Matt Plus Powder in " 010 Transparent". It's long lasting shine control powder. It gives matt pigment and have light- reflection. And the best thing about it is that it's oil free. Next step is blusher. I'm using Essence Silky Touch Blush in " 60 life is cherry". I love it so much. It's such a pretty pink color.
Now the last step is off course lipstick and I'm using Essence Lipstick in " 53 all about cupcake". But before lipstick I tend to use Labello Lip Butter in "Raspberry Rose". It makes my lips softer and it made lipstick last longer.

Hello!!
Hope you have nice sunny day.
One thing that I don't love during the summer is when my hair is on my face. I absolutely hate it. It's even worse because I have black hair and my hair is so hot that I can cook egg on it. Only rescue for me are hairstyles that are cute but holding my hair out of my face. I'll show you 3 hairstyles that I've been wearing the most. They are super easy so everyone can do it.
♥ French Braid With a Twist.
First thing you need to do is to take two small section of hair in the front and braid them normally. Secure it with elastic. Tuck the braid under the hair in back. Now secure them with bobby pins. Remove elastic and release the hair to cover bobby pins. Take tree peaces to start French braid. Make it loose and sure that your small braids are part of the hair you're picking up. When you braided it all way down secure it with elastic. If you want you can softly tug the braid for more volume. I wore this hairstyle yesterday and it is so cute.
♥ Messy Bun
This hairstyle is my all time fave. I think that this one I don't need to explain, cause it's something that every girl with long hair know how to do. I love to wear it when my hair is not to clean and I'm not really into braid move. That means when I'm to lazy. :)
♥ Pulled up Bangs
So this one is not to heavy to make too. First thing you need to do is to grab your bangs and put them up. Twist them and secure with bobby pin or with a bow. After that you can curl your hair with curling iron but as I don't have curling iron ( I know, how can I live without it) I make one big braid and leave it true the night. In the morning I have beautiful no heat curls.
As you can tell in the summer days I like to wear simple but cute hairstyles. Hairstyles that I can make in 5 minutes.
What kind of hairstyles do you like to wear in hot summer days?
