Autumn outfit ideas

Good afternoon! 

I chose few sets from my polyvore (irensmile.polyvore.com) to show you my autumn style ideas. 

This autumn I like simple boyfriend's or oversized coats. It looks very fashionable and it's so easy to combine - it will go well with sky high heels, comfy sneakers or stylish biker boots.

I like to combine leather and jeans. Add classical coat and your favorite accessories - and you are ready for dinner out. 

Classical office look isn't so boring if you do it all in blue colors plus add metallic studs on shirt. 

Parka is my favorite comfy outerwear for autumn! 

Timberlands, sweater - you are ready to go for a long walk in beautiful autumn parks. 

Again something very simple and stylish at same time - bright coat or ankle boots and neutral details. 

Cape is also wonderful for autumn. Don't forget to wear your loafers! 

I love this color combinations - reminds me autumn leaves! 

Love this boots - comfy, stylish, elegant. 

I really love combination of gentle pink and grey color. 

Nice idea for evening out - small bag, rude biker boots and light chiffon dress. And of course a warm coat! 

This is look for early autumn parties - sequin skirt, leather jacket and warm sweater. 

Something comfy for early autumn. 

Very light and gentle look. 

What is your favorite autumn look? 

Dress up warm and don't catch cold like me!

Perfume

Hello reader! It's me again. Today I wanna tell you about my favorite perfumes. 

Around year ago I bought Escada "Desire me" perfume. 

The fragrance aims at modern young woman who enjoys being in center of attention, is aware of her qualities and knows she is an object of many men's affection. Her dashiness, charisma, charm and fragrance leave an unforgettable impression. 

Composition of perfume is bitter-sweet citruses and accentuates juiciness of mandarin, peony and fresh green leaves. A base is characterized by gourmand elements: tiramisu, coffee, cookies, special aromas of cheese-cake, as well as opulent nuances of dark chocolate, which contribute to warmth and sensuality on the skin for a long time.

In the beginning of spring 2014 i found a tester of Givenchy "Eaudemoiselle" perfume which was given to me once in cosmetic shop. I didn't think I will like it, just wanted to try something new. I wore it for all day and liked it so much. So in a few days I went to shop and bought full size bottle. 

Eaudemoiselle de givenchy is described as a floral edition interpreted in couture spirit with emblematic aristocratic values of the house of givenchy. It is placed between the traditional and the modern, and it is ideal for young, contemporary women. The minimalistic flacon with discrete curves is crowned with a cylindrical golden metal stopper. It captures a composition created of tangerine, italian winter lemon, shiso (japanese basil), rose, ylang ylang, musk, ambrette seed and tonka. The fragrance was created by francois demachy, who described it as ‘an imaginary rose in dewy morning’.

There is only one thing I didn't like about this perfume - its name sounds too hard to pronounce :D :D

When Givenchy and Escada perfumes were over, I was looking for a new one. It was so hard to choose! I tried hundreds of perfumes. All sounded same and it was not something I was looking for. I needed something special, something that not everyone uses, not a popular fragrance. And then I remembered my childhood friend was using Jo Malone perfume. 

Jo Malone is a British lifestyle brand known for its unique fragrance portfolio and luxury products for the bath, body and home.

I chose Blackberry and bay cologne. 

I really loved the way they wrap it! So beautiful!

Childhood memories of blackberry picking...A burst of deep, tart blackberry juice, blending with the freshness of just-gathered bay and brambly woods. Vibrant and verdant. Top note: blackberry, heart note: bay leaves, base note: cedarwood.

The only disadvantage - it's expensive a bit... 100 ml costs 120$, 30 ml - 60$. 

For travelling I use these small atomizers, both are from Sephora. 

But last time it was epic fail with it - I didn't clean it after Givenchy and Escada perfumes just after use, so I was trying hard to rinse it with alcohol and water, but it didn't help. Of course I didn't have enough time to buy a new atomizer and my Jo Malone is so big to carry in luggage so I decided to buy a miniatures in duty free shop in airport. 

I chose Dior J'adore. There are 4 miniatures - eau l'absolu, eau de perfume, eau de toilette and voile de perfume. They are packed into compact white box. Really useful for travelling! 

Now I'm going to watch movie and have a hot tea for my sick throat. Enjoy your Sunday! Thanks for reading :*

Hair essentials

Hello everyone! Unfortunately I cought a cold at Friday evening (how this can be? I had such a great plans for this weekend!) so at Saturday I stayed at home and had lots of free time. And I thought it can be nice to shoot my cosmetics for blog. So here is the first post - hair essentials.

I have a thin blond hair with split ends. 

My hairdresser recommended me to use matrix products for my blond thin hair. I tried different lines and I can't name my favorite - all are nice. Here is repair shampoo, repair mask and silk wonder smoothing oil. 

About shampoo - be careful if you tint your hair - it washes away the tint very quickly. 

Mask - I apply it twice per week instead of conditioner on half of head from ends to middle. You can see the result after the first use, hair is very soft and smooth.

Smoothing oil - I apply it few times per week (when I don't forget about it haha) on wet hair ends. This oil makes your hair smooth, soft and helps you to brush it. 

My last matrix conditioner is over so it's necessary to buy a new one. I think it will be same choice - color care. Unfortunately I don't have a photo of it, but I attached at picture from their website. 

It makes your hair smooth, easy to brush, plus it smells so nice! 

I tried to use usual mass market shampoos and conditioners for a month, it was a great problem to brush my hair after it! And I needed around month to repair my hair. So no more experiments, I will be faith to matrix ;)

My favorite hair brush Tangle Teezer. It's light, fits your hand perfectly and gently brushes your hair. But when people see me brushing my hair they wonder if it's a soap dish? :D :D 

Have a great Saturday everyone! 

New cosmetics post in my blog is coming up tomorrow. 

My favourite bridge

It's hard to say what is my favourite place in my home town, but if i have to name one, i'd definitely say it's Bolsheohtinsky bridge. It was open in 1911, and was reconstructed only in 1971! Such a high quiality.

Those towers remind me Tower bridge in London. If you are standing at right side of river, you can see beautiful cathedral between towers.

 Selfie near bridge :)

 Last sunny days in St.Petersburg
