Photographic memories with bestie

Last year, pretty much at this time I was in Los Angeles, and I hung out a lot with my best friend from EF Redondo Beach school. We also went to visit San Diego together, and he even tried to teach me how to take pictures of the stars at night… but it ended up being a total fail, and I honestly don’t remember any of his good advices now; still, we had fun 😀 I was thinking about our adventures, laughing to myself today, and wanted to share a couple shots he took of me & some I took of him… you know.

Views from the Getty Center

I’m so excited about these pictures that I recently found on the hard drive of my camcorder. I edited a couple of stills, and this is from the last time I was in Los Angeles with my sister Dakota & we went to the Getty Center to enjoy some incredible views on the city of angels.

She almost did not want to do this… had to convince her it’d be fun ! I took my cousin on a day trip to Belgrade, and we visited the Kalemegdan. When I saw this torture instrument exhibited, of course it was photoshoot time 😀 Teens nowadays are trying too hard to act like adults, they forget they’re still kids and should enjoy that while it last, because let’s be real : adulthood s*cks.

I love you !

I love my sister Dakota so much… she’s the most important person in my life. She’s always been there for me, like a hardcore rock. I’m the bigger sister, but she’s definitively always been the strongest one : she’s my little sun. She’s supported my crazy ideas and helped me whenever she could, no matter what I had in mind, trusting me even (especially) when no one else would. & There’s nobody in the whole world I trust more than her. She’s just my favorite person.

I’m grateful beyond compare to have her as a sister, but she’s more than that to me, she’s my best friend also. I want to say thank you to her, and let everyone know that she’s the greatest human being on this planet, and how in more ways than one she abled me to become who I am today. Through her support and care, I gained the wings I needed to fly away and accomplish the things I dreamed of, and couldn’t have done otherwise. Thank you immensely D., I love and adore you. I miss you so much… see you in 40 days !

All about my nails !

Get your nails matching your iPhone case 🙂

A lot of people think because I’m running a geek online magazine (geeklandmag.com), and like doing “boy-ish” stuff that it means I’m not girly… all the contrary ! My favorite color is pink, and I’m actually really into getting myself dolled up & doing my own glam.

My main has always probably been nail polish, because it’s easy & fun to do. In this particular post I’m wearing the Yves Saint Laurent 69 Love Pink, which is a limited edition and currently out of stock. It’s such a pretty color, it’s kinda pale but also very shiny. I absolutely fell in love with it, it’s just the perfect pink and it matches my iPhone case ! How cute is that.

Meet my nail polish glam squad

I don’t own that many nail polish colors, because I’m basic and when I crave something new, I just like taking a break at a nail bar and get my nails done there. They have all kinds of colors, and it’s literally super inexpensive to treat yourself to it, so it’s definitively a must do for me.

My two favorite nail polish brands are maybe high end, but from my experience if you want the bottle to last you, better get something luxurious because the quality is just better & unbeatable compared to non-luxury brands. Plus, if someone asks you what you’re wearing, isn’t it so cute to say “Chanel” or “Yves Saint Laurent” 😛

How to do your nails the right way

That’s extremely simple, it’s totally child’s play. The most important thing if you want the color to stay for at least a week, is to do two layers. & My personal advice is to wait the first layer to dry completely, before applying the second one, that way there’s no risk of messing both layers up with each other. You don’t want it to look cakey and gross.

When it comes to my nails, I like to keep them very short because I work a lot with my hands and I did try having longer nails for a while, but it was not practical. Even though I love long nails, it looks beautiful and feminine, having them like this for me was just annoying. And I don’t necessarily paint my feet’s, because I like a “clean look”.

That’s it for this beauty related post on The Blog ! Hope you enjoyed it, I’ll make those more often. I’ve never done this type of thing before, I mean so detailed, because I’m not especially into sharing glam tips & advices with people, it’s almost like private life stuff to me 🙂 But I thought some of you might be curious, and it’ll be kind of cool to open up more to my followers.

Last tip, while you wait for your first layer to dry you can browse stuff on you iPhone using finger tips ONLY. I usually get on one of the Kardashian-Jenner apps, they’re full of awesome girly content.
