Hello everyone! Today's blog post is an Instagram one, where I share six photos of my previous seven days. Firstly, we have a pile of dirty dishes that I washed. I know, very interesting! Next to that there's a small haul. A new wooden and flat palette, a small paint brush and contact lenses. Last image of the first row is the brown handbag I bought for my best friend's birthday. It was from Bershka and on sale for 20 Euro. The green one is from the birthday party on Saturday. Next to that, we have a photo of the beach in my town. Last but not least, it's the picture of my beautiful niece sleeping, taken today when I was babysitting.

Hello everyone! How has your week been so far? Mine has been fine, with a mixture of art and beauty. First photo is from when I painted my nails with Essie's In The Cab-Ana beautiful nail polish. Next to that there's a finished painting that I had been working on lately. Last picture of the first row is what was left of my delicious Caesar Salad I had on Monday with my best friend before watching Despicable Me 2 at the cinema. First photo of the second row is of the items I used to apply my makeup for yesterday's post. Next to that there's my niece playing with a pen and a notebook (more like destroying a notebook). Last but not least, there is my unfinished attempt to draw Matt Smith's eye. Eyes fascinate me and I love to draw them.

Hello everyone! How has July been for you so far? Personally, I think it's going to be a very fun month, with a couple of parties and friend gatherings. I've just come home from a beach party, to be exact. But enough with that, let's have a look at this week's Instagram post. First photo is of my brand new Sleek Candy Collection Blush By 3 and next to that is my old swimsuit that I wore on Friday, when I went to the sea with my mum. Then we have two clothing items bought from Stradivarius, the white vest being the birthday gift for today's beach party. After that, you can see my Romwe order and then the nail varnishes I used to paint my toe nails. Last photo of the first row is from the very late meal I had on Saturday, or should I say Sunday? You can also see some of my notes for my last post, a Sigma brushes review and then a photo of my coloured pencils before starting to draw. Last but not least we have a photo of what I decided to draw with my coloured pencils.

Hello everyone. I hope your week has been great so far. Mine, however, has been very strange and quite dangerous, I dare say. On Monday, my one year old little niece started choking when I was feeding her lunch and she wasn't able to breathe for about a minute. I was petrified that she was actually going to die, right in front of me. Thank God, my father was able to get her to throw up and get that thing out of her throat. Other odd things happened, like something burned my mum's eye, my dad burning his arm and my brother breaking his nose. There's something seriously wrong going on in my house!
Anyway, enough with the family drama. We're all safe and sound now. As it is Wednesday today, we have an Instagram blog post. The first photo shows the outfit pieces I wore for last Thursday's fashion post. Next to that there's a delicious snack my lovely dad prepared for me. The last photo of the first row is of an old ankle boot that I've removed the studs of before recycling it. First photo of the second row is of the nose pore strips from M&S I used during the weekend. Next to that is the unfinished and failed attempt to draw Matt Smith from a still in The Bells of Saint John. Lastly we have the outfit pieces for tomorrow's fashion post.

Hello everyone! This week I am testing a new blogging schedule and that's why I am posting this today. Basically, I would like to have a beauty post on Tuesday, an Instagram post on Wednesday, a fashion post on Thursday and youtube video on Friday. Let's hope it works, because I want to blog more often, but I can find the time to prepare for a good post. So today's blog post is an Instagram one, in which I show you six recent pictures that I have posted on my profile. The first one was taken just after painting my nails with a beautiful coral/red, the Erre Due 47. Next to that there was a sneak preview of Friday's blog post, The Body Shop's Tea Tree Cool & Creamy Wash. Last picture of the first row is one of my recently washed makeup brushes. Moving on to the second row we have a lame picture of my computer's screen when I was watching Doctor Who series six. Have I mentioned that I am obsessed with this show lately? Next to that there is a bowl of cereal. Very exciting, I know! Lastly, there's an unfinished drawing of mine that I started in January and I have been working on these past few days.

Hello everyone. Since my previous Instagram blog post was so successful, I thought I would do another one today and share my week with you. Again, I wasn't planning of posting this today, but I needed to catch up with The Vampire Diaries and watched the final three episodes. And Oh My God it was awesome! (I especially loved the Damon & Elena, Klaus & Caroline and Matt/Rebekah moments.) That left me without much daylight to take photos for what I wanted to blog about. Also, I still haven't finished editing the I Heart Spring Tag video. I feel like I have a million things to do, but my uni exams are my priority. I had my third one today, Art History. Three more to go and I will be done next Friday. Oh, I can't wait for that moment of freedom! As you can see, I'm in a very weird mood tonight!
So, this week has been about the weird weather we've had in Cyprus. This month started feeling like July and a couple of days ago, it felt like February. Also, uni assignments have being appearing on my Instagram profile. In addition, I have been doing a lot of unexpected shopping this past week. Carrefour, The Body Shop and M&S. Actually, I went to M&S with my mum today, and I have to admit spending 100 euro was not my plan. As you can see from the picture above, I have an unhealthy obsession with muffins. Should I do a collective haul video? By the way, are you going to watch the Eurovision Song Contest tomorrow night? I am and I'm going to be on twitter talking about everything.

Hello everyone! Today, I thought I would share some of my recent photos on Instagram.
I filmed the I Heart Spring Tag today and I was hoping to have that as my blog post, but I wasn't able to edit the video in time. Let's not forget that I am studying for my final uni exams.
So, I thought I would give you 6 photos that describe my life at the moment. Basically, spring and exams!
The first one shows some flowers my dad put in the living room, the second one shows the new pair of sandals that I bought and the third one is the view from my backyard. Moving on to the second row. There we have my freshly painted nails with China Glaze's Re-Fresh Mint and a little design with the Gosh Splish Splash. Next to that you can admire my skills as a graphic designer for one of my presentations/exams. Last photo was taken while I was studying for my Art History exam.
Thank you for spending some of your time on my blog and don't forget to check out my instagram profile!

Hello everyone! Why does it feel like I haven't posted anything in ages? Maybe it's because I've had an incredibly busy week. From starting my second semester at university to passing my learner driver examination, my 10 months old niece getting incredibly ill and buying a new phone, this week had it all!
Let's focus on the last good thing that happened to me this week and that is my new phone. I was so glad when I got home on Thursday to see my Sony Xperia U, which I had ordered from Amazon, waiting for me. Yes, I don't own an iPhone and probably never will. I have nothing against Apple, I'm simply not their biggest fan.
The point of this blog post is to introduce to you my Instagram account, that I created yesterday. Obviously, I haven't posted many photos, but I'm so obsessed with it at the moment. I love photography, I've always had. I am learning proper photography at uni this semester too. I'm so excited to start using a DSLR camera! You know what that means, don't you? Better quality of photos and videos is coming soon.
Okay, have I been rambling or what? Sorry for my more than normal nonsense! Haha :)
Thank you for reading and if you followed me on Instagram it would make me very happy! Plus I follow back.
