Makeup is something that makes me feel very happy. Since today is my day, the day I'm celebrating my birth, I had to wear something that would make me feel great. I'm not a fashion blogger and I feel the best in simple sports clothes, so makeup is my favourite accessories to wear. Will you believe me if I'll tell you that this is actually my second makeup attempt of the day? First, I started with a blue and yellow combination, which ended up being green, but I didn't feel good in this combination (which is something new for me), so I removed everything and made a different look.
I started with a light matte brown in the crease, and then I applied light matte yellow all over my lid. I added darker brown in outer V to deepen the look. On my lower lash line, I used shimmery orange shade and in the inner corner of the eye, I applied white metallic shade. Then I added a bit of golden glitter in the inner corner of the eye on the lower lash line. I finished the look with white pencil on the waterline, black eyeliner and mascara.

Now it's time to share a special news with you. Those who follow me on Snapchat know the news for some time already and I already announced it today on my personal Facebook - my boyfriend and I are expecting a little sunshine in the middle of August. I'm so happy that I'm going to be a mom. I still don't know the gender of my little baby because my gynaecologist doesn't want to tell me (not just me, he doesn't tell any of his patients), but at the end of the day that's not important, the only important thing is that our baby will be healthy.
You probably noticed that this year I didn't really blog much and that I mostly posted reviews on my blog. For the first three and a half months, I had huge nausea and I didn't really feel like blogging, but since I worked with some companies, I had to review those products. Everything started in the middle of December and my pregnancy is one of the reasons I never finished last year's Blogmas. It still bugs me because I had so many posts planned, but when you feel sick every day you just don't have enough energy for editing and writing.
When I was around 15 weeks pregnant I started to feel much better and I started to understand what means being a happy and satisfied pregnant lady. I really enjoy in my pregnancy, in my baby's kicks, even in the growth of my belly. Finally, I can eat a meal without worrying that my belly will look big because of the food, haha. :P
For the past month or so there's a lack of posts on my blog because we started to renovate few rooms in our house. My boyfriend and I bought a new bedroom which still won't be finished at least two weeks, but yeah, renovating few rooms mean a lot of work and during the day I usually don't have time to write something (or if I do I usually take a chance to photograph swatches and products for blog), while in the evening I'm usually so tired that I just watch a movie and go to sleep. I have a huge amount of ideas for my blog, although I have no idea when I'll manage to realise them all. But I'll try to keep the content of my blog as interesting as I can, even after the birth of my baby.
I probably won't talk much about my pregnancy and maternity on this blog. Since February, I'm writing a special blog about my pregnancy, but it's still private because I'm not happy with any name I can think of it. I really hoped I'll manage to think of a great name for it until today, so I could share a link with you, but that didn't happen. But when it will, I'll definitely announce it here on this blog. :)
I also want to take a chance and say thank you for reading my blog, for all of your support, comments, likes, messages - it really means a lot. You're the best. :*
