Sunday – Again and Again

|Seen| Shows, shows, shows (Suits, Pretty Little Liars and Vampire Diaries were my highlights this week), „Ich bin ein Star – Holt mich hier raus“ (for pure entertainment of course) |Heard| Bibi Blocksberg (various episode) to fall asleep, lots of radio, and I had shows running in the background while doing chores |Eaten| lunch at work, some toast, Thai pea soup made by my lovely nurse who took care of me, Miracoli spaghetti |Drank| lots of tea (Princess Lillifee, Pear and Apple-Vanilla tea), freshly pressed mandarin juice, coffee and „Bounty“ |Clicked| online beauty stores, Amazon for book inspiration, Facebook, Bloglovin and just general surfing around |Thought| Nooo, I do not wanna get sick. |Annoyed| That I ended up getting sick after all :/ |Liked| As much as I hate being sick – it was nice to be able to spend some time in bed, watching shows, drinking tea and just relaxing in order to get better. |Bought| I placed a rather big order with douglas.de, the big German online beauty store. I got three products from the new Dior Cherie Bow collection, one of the new colors from the Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfectors and a BB Cream from Smashbox. And bad me is tempted to order even more but I will try to constrain myself.

And here is your daily does of Instagram pictures (follow me under @OfficialSarah):

Monday started with a visit at the dentist. Thankfully he did not find anything and just told me to stop pushing my lower front teeth with my tongue, as there is a tiny gap between my teeth, which started to become bigger.

IMG_1199

Tuesday it was back to school. While in Germany I stocked up with tea and I was finally able to try out my new Princess Lillifee tea, which is strawberry and raspberry flavored. Yummi.

IMG_1201

On Wednesday I finally had time to get to the post office and pick up my Asos purchase. One of the things was this Carmex Lip Balm in Strawberry. Love the combination of Strawberry flavor and tingly mint on my lips.

IMG_1204

My new nail polish from Chanel, which I got while I was in Germany as well. I still did not have time to put it on my nails as by Thursday I was unfortunately sick and had to stay in bed but as soon as I am up and running again I will definitely add this as a touch of color. Such a lovely pink with a clearly visible hue of gold.

IMG_1207

Another nail polish I got a few days ago is this China Glaze one. It’s called Whirled Away and is from the Cirque du Soleil collection. I got this one and Get Carried Away on sale at beautybay.com.

IMG_1208

Sick me before I had to head of to the supermarket to stock up on a few survival things (and toilet paper, which I was out of, lol).

IMG_1218

My freshly pressed mandarin juice. I used 6 mandarines for one glass of juice. It was weird how even the pure juice started to divide up into two layers (as seen in the picture) within minutes. I still have to figure out what the juice was missing (that special something, thinking something sweet).

IMG_1219

I love love LOVE Pink Sands from Yankee and will definitely have to get more of those tartes. This is such a lovely sweet and girly smell. Christoffer would hate it but as I am alone most of the week(s) it is just fair enough that I have this burning :)

IMG_1221

My lovely nurse took care of me on Saturday evening and made a Thai soup with coconut milk and peas for me. So yummi and I will definitely make this again soon. Follow my dear friend on Instagram under @sophisticatedisabella!

IMG_1222

Re-watching suits in bed while eating Milk-Slice aka Milchschnitte (it IS a German product afte all so we bette call it by its real name) – pure perfection minus the fact that I look like Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer.

How did you guys spend your last week?

Sunday – Again and Again

|Seen| My shows started again after their winter break so I watched i.e. Bunheads, Pretty Little Liars and Grey’s Anatomy (and others) |Heard| “Legend” and “Prodigy” as audiobooks (Prodigy is not out as a proper book yet), “Marry Me” by Bruno Mars and “Augenbling” by Culcha Candela |Eaten| Lunch at work, melon and prosciutto (big craving since weeks), Currywurst, pizza at Tuscolo  |Drank| Vanilla Latte at Starbucks, self made apple-pear-lime juice which I made with my new juicer, “Bounty” = Nespresso Coconut capsule with milk and a spoon full of chocolate powder (created by the boyfriend) |Clicked| tracking my parcels online, blogs, some sale sites, and lots of Yahoo Finance and 4-traders.com for work |Thought| Is everyone I know getting pregnant? (I love love love that one of my best friends is having a baby – don’t get me wrong – just everyone seems to be pregnant at the moment, lol) |Annoyed| I can honestly say that nothing annoyed me too much this week that I should mention it here. |Liked| That I am finally getting back into a rhythm after weeks of exam cramming, even though getting up at 07:00 four days a week is hard. Coming home after 4 months of absence and seeing family and friends. Getting delayed Christmas present from my sister Ann (she knows me well and I got a Yankee candle and an Amazon gift certificate, which I can use for my new Kindle – *love*). |Bought| I ordered my new iPhone and got it within two days. As my old Mulberry cover unfortunately does not fit anymore *sniffsniff* I got a new pink one at the airport because the thought of scratching it was driving me insane. I also went on a little spending splurge at dm (drugstore) but bought just general stuff (nothing worth mentioning). I also stocked up on Yankee tartes and finally bought some of the ones in glass jars (hand luggage), which I will show you on here soon. Everything else I received this week has been ordered before, so that does not count as having been bought this week. ;)

And now some Instagram for the pictures:

My new Naked Basic palette from Urban Decay – amazing for travelling and I took it with me to Germany right away the day after I got it. Faint is such a lovely color!

IMG_1179

The presents I got from my sister: lovely cupcake holder, which will go into the bathroom, a Yankee candle with Christmas Cupcake smell (amazing!!!) and two matching tarts, an amazon gift voucher and a wooden spoon covered with chocolate to make hot chocolate (I made it the second I got it and it was so delicious).

IMG_1182

My new MSF in Stereo Rose and matching lipstick in Haute Altitude from the new Aprés Chic LE. Espescially the MSF is pure love! Wearing it non-stop since I got it.

IMG_1183

FINALLY at the hair dresser getting highlights and a hair cut!

IMG_1187

The result – could not be happier!

IMG_1188

New Instant Lip Perfecter from Clarins. I got hooked by friends talking about it and gave it a try and now I cannot wait until the new colors come out in the middle of this months (hoping to see them tomorrow at the airport duty free).

IMG_1190

New Yankee tartes – especially the Pink Sand smells AMAZING and I bought the big candle for the bed room as well :)

IMG_1194

Awesome pizza at Tuscolo, a local pizza place in Bonn (best pizza ever). My one came with pepperoni salami, spinach, mushrooms and spinach. Sooo good.
