I said it once and I'll say it again: to me winter = Christmas. I mean, actually my birthday falls during wintertime as well, but I can't help just think about fairy lights and gingerbread and deers when I hear that word. It's the most beautiful time of the year and I'm down to enjoying every single festive bit of it. Want to jump on the sleigh with me?
I'm not proud of that, but I'm the biggest fashion victim in the world. I can say I hate something to death until fashion says it's cool and so I need it more than air. But, what can I do? Fashion molds me in what it wants and there's nothing I can do about it. So here we go, three trends I 've never thought I would embrace and that now I'm dying over. Oh, superficiality.

Flashback three years ago, I would have slapped you if you had handed me a leopard something. To me, animalier was synonym of boor and tacky and Jersey Shore. But guess what? Now it's hipster and I love it. Don't get me wrong, I would never leave the house like Katy Perry at 2013 VMAs but God knows how much I would like a pair of leopard Vans, just to add a little something to a whole black outfit and, you know, be a bit more roar-tastic. (What? Who said that?)

Time to change the number under my profile pic! I'm 18! I decided to break my birthday tales down to three posts. Here's what I wore on my birthday dinner!
TIP OF THE WEEK WITH FLEUR DE FORCE & LILY MELROSE!
Dupes are one of my favorite things. I know it's a bit lame to say that, but seriously, how amazing is to get the expensive high-end look for a fraction of the price? It's just my cup of tea and I got really excited when I saw that bot Fleur and Lily had posted videos about dupes this week!
Fleur is obviously all about beauty and she shows us - together with the lovely Amelia Liana - a couple of cheaper options for high hyped products like the Oribe Dry Texturising Spray and Mac lipsticks. I think beauty dupes are just the best, because, as Fleur says herself, sometimes they're actually the same product as the high end version, but with a different name and a different packaging. This happens because some make up brands (i.e. L'Orèal and Giorgio Armani) are held by the same company and most of the times you pay more for the designer name than for the product itself.
Anyway, here's what I bought:
