May favorites in monochrome

I forgot to make an April favorites post so I thought I'd make this one a little different from the rest of them. Don't get your hopes up though, it's just going to be in black and white. These items are all over the place and don't really connect or fit together but that's just more fun, right? I bought a few of these items in my recent trip to Latvia and some I've had for a while but have just recently started appreciating. Well, enough babble... Enjoy my May favorites!

Nr. 1 - Garnier BB cream

 
I bought this BB creme in a supermarket in Latvia because my friends had been talking about it nonstop. It did not disappoint. It's the only thing I put on my face in the morning and I feel fresh the whole day through. I wasn't sure if I should buy it or not since I have sensitive skin when it comes to foundations and BB creams but I've got nothing to complain about, no zits and no oily skin! 

Nr. 2 - Real Techniques Starter Set (Eye definition)

 

I've been planning on buying this for a long time and I finally picked it up at the airport on our way to Riga. It is as flawless as everyone says and I can't imagine how I survived so long without these brushes. 

Nr. 3 - Hat from H&M

 

A hat has been on my wishlist for over a year now and I had kind of given up hope when I found this one in H&M. My head is huge and no hats fit me so when I tried that one on I didn't think it would actually fit. But it did and I almost cried from happiness. It will probably not leave my head this summer.

Nr. 4 - Vanilla incense sticks

 

I bought these a few weeks ago and whenever I've been feeling down lately I light one. They smell so good and the air in the room instantly becomes ten times better. 

Nr. 5 - Eurythmics Greatest Hits

 

This CD has been buried underneath a whole bunch of books and other CD's for a while now and just yesterday I found it again. I had completely forgotten how good this album really is and I especially love "Sweet dreams (Are Made Of This)" and "Here Comes The Rain Again".

Nr. 6 - Purse from H&M

 

I picked this purse up for only 9.99 euros and it's the perfect purse for me. The zipper is gold (you can't see because I decided these photos should be in black and white... great decision Maria...) and the purse is such a great size. You can easily fit a phone, keys, lipstick and sunglasses inside it and due to the fact that it's still too small for lot of crap to build up at the bottom you can't lose anything in it.

Nr. 7 - Belgian truflfes

 

These were a gift from the Latvian girl I stayed with. They are so delicious, crispy on the outside and pure dreamy on the inside. I have no other words for these truffles except for perfect. (Yes there are only two left, they taste like heaven no judging...)

Nr. 8 - Cute picture of me and my friends

 

 

There is a super cute story behind this photo. This was the day we vistied the Baltic sea and it was super hot outside so my friend bought herself an icecream. As soon as we walked out the shop I regretted not buying one myself. The kids from our group were hanging at the beach but we wanted to stay where the wind didn't get us. I remember this moment so clearly because I noticed that the cute boy from the group was staring at us. Then he picked up his camera and took this photo, of me tasting my friend's ice cream. It means a lot to me, because me and my friends are all going our seperate ways after this year and I'll never see that cute boy again. I have this picture sitting on my bedside table and it will be there for a long time.

 

Punk hugs,

Maria
