DIY: Strawberry cocktail (alcohol free)

Summer is on its way, or at least I hope so! The things I love about summer include the sun, the beach and the pretty people:). However, the food and beverages in summer differ from the ones in winter. I always start eating lighter food, including more fruit! And strawberries, they are simply delicious. Another glorious aspect of this fruit, is that it is cheaper during summertime!

DIY: Easy but cute updo

Medium or long hair; so many opportunities! Last week a friend of mine joined her boyfriend (whose birthday it is today! Happy birthday Pip!) to the prom. Of course she stressed out about her hair, make-up and dress, and asked me to do her hair and make-up. We searched for hours. She did not want her hair to be up, but she did not want it loose... She did not want a braid, but she did not want her hair straightened as well. Luckily, we found this movie on youtube and decided to do her hair like that!

DIY: Chain (necklace) shirt

We saw them at the catwalk, and they appear in stores more often and often: chain shirts. I kinda love them, but if you know me then you also know that I'm a budget freak! And since chain shirts are often pretty expensive, I decided to find out how to make it yourself! Do you like them too? Let me show you how to make a chain shirt yourself!

DIY: Protect yourself well

In the Netherlands, and probably also in other countries, we assume too quickly that the sun is not so harmful. You are wrong! Now it is June, the sun arrived (well, for a week, now it changed its place again for the well-known rain), and you are not supposed to leave your house without a cream that contains an SPF (Sun Protection Factor). Yeah...  I know this, is what you are probably thinking now. But believe me, I still know way too many people that do not protect themselves properly!

I'm back!

Hi guys,
I know that I have not been posting since the beginning of January and actually I feel bad about it! I've talked it over with some people and decided to continue my blog. I enjoy writing and it is a way to relieve stress. I stopped because it confiscated more time than I thought it would, but from this weekend onward you can expect new DIY's!

Love,
Anouk!
