DIY: IPHONE CASE: Bling


Things Needed: Plain iPhone case of any color choice (got mine from H&M for 5 euros), a Pencil, Scissors (preferably sharper than these), and a large Flexible Diamond Sticker

First off, you want to flip over both the Flexible Diamond Sticker & The iPhone cover, placing the cover on the edge of the Sticker so that it's one side less to cut. 
Secondly, you want to trace the outline of the iPhone cover using the Pencil (this step met be very accurate and precise)!

You then need to cut it out and take off the sticker-protector (is that what it's called? haha i actually don't know).

Last but not least, stick the sticker on the case et voilá, you got yourself a super cute very affordable and easy-to-make blingy iPhone case!
yaaay, I really enjoyed making this. Once again, its quite inexpensive - I mean the case itself cost 5 euro and the flexible diamond sticker cost 7,25 euro so thats a total of 12,25! I still have a lot of the sticker left so I'm thinking of going out to buy some more plain cases at H&M as they are selling them in stores now. I'm gonna experiment with different styles and would love to maybe even sell them in the near future! Going a bit too far with the whole selling thing? haha. 

Anyways, hope you might try this & if you do, tell me how it turned out!

Summertime Sadness



Summer's coming to an end, buhu. I've had a lot of time to reflect on myself and hope that this school year, I'll live fuller than I did before in the sense that I'll truly appreciate what I have and won't miss out on any chances passing my way. I also hope to bring joy to those around me

ºMUNICHº

MUNICH, Germany! woohooo. So I managed to go to Munich today as I'm currently in a small village half an hour away from there! I went with my parents because there were various things we needed to buy. One of which was my belated 'Report Card present'. Since both of my sisters got the newest Nintendo, I was allowed to choose between either money or something of my choice. I've always watched my mom put makeup on and use products from a company called Origins. I've been borrowing her stuff from there and booyy let me tell ya their products are truly amazing.

Maxi dress




I personaly love wearing plain Maxi dresses. Usually i would accessorize them but I was in a rush so I just went wearing it like the 1º picture.

Later on, I somehow managed to wet the bottom of the dress and since I didn't want sand to get stuck to it, I turned it into a cute & shorter dress (as shown in the 2º picture).


I also love love love wearing them as maxi skirts with a bandeau. I think it adds some fun and flirty character to the outfit.




What are your thoughts on Maxi dresses & how would you style them?

I've been meaning to tie-dye for the past few months but never got around to it. Finally I decided to buy me some white shirts and just go for it. I actually wanted to get one of those tie-dye kits - the really easy ones where you have several colors and its just super practical. But since I had no clue where to get them in Luxembourg, I just decided to get a purple "Dylon" dye which seemed to work. Except for that, well... I was obviously supposed to wear gloves which I didn't so I ended up having hands covered 100% in black... so annoying. But overall it was really fun and I'm really happy with the outcome so i definitely recommend trying it out if you're into affordable DIY projects that may get a bit messy, heh.
