46. Current obsessions



Hi everyone!
Long time, no post! We missed blogging and you all! First of all, we wanted to wish you all our fellow bloggers A HAPPY NEW YEAR FILLED WITH LOTS OF HAPPINESS, LOVE AND HEALTH! Now the new year's started we're gonna get back to blogging! We're still busy with exams but we'll get back to blogging routine soon!
How's the festivities been? Hope you all had a lovely time!
I'm gonna tell you what I'm obsessed with at the moment:

1. Music
We've been obsessed with so many songs lately but these are our favourite ones:
-Vance Joy- Riptide
-Taylor Swift- Wonderland
-Sam Hunt- Leave the night on
-Hozier- Take me to church

2. Dr. Lipp nipple balm
This is literally the BESTEST lipbalm ever!!!!! I still use EOS lipbalms on a daily basis but I'm now using this lipbalm and it's so hydrating I don't even need to reapply once! Oh, and it isn't sticky!

3. "Before I go to sleep" by S. J. Watson
I read this book like two years ago and I loved it! I've been thinking about it lots lately and I just think it's amazing and a must read if you like thrillers! I was so hooked up!

4. Fluffy everything
I love everything fluffy! From clutches to hair scrunchies and jumpers! 

5. The Originals
I used to watch The Vampire Diaries and then The Originals but the first one got boring in my opinion so I stopped watching it... And did the same with the latter for some reason! I've restarted watching it during the holidays and I'm SO HOOKED!!!!! I mean Joseph Morgan!!!!!!! Daniel Sharman!!!!!! Their accents!!!!!!!!

6. Daniel Sharman
Of course there had to be a man in this list! I was obsessed with him because of Teen Wolf but his british accent and sassiness in The Originals has just made me love him even more!



7. Candles
I've always loved candles but winter makes me wanna lit candles 24/7! I love vanilla, cinnamon and sweet-scented ones!

8. Demi wispies by Ardell false lashes
I love looooong lashes (don't we all!?) and these are my all time favourite ones! They look natural as the band is transparent and they're a bit longer on the ends which looks very femenine on!

9. Magnitone Lucid by Pixie Lott
My skin has just improved a whole lot since I started using it! I had a skin care routine before but this is just one minute and I barely get spots!

10. Lush Snowfairy shower gel
What can I say? That is my favourite shower gel EVERRRRRRR! I'm just so sad it's a Christmas limited edition so I try to stock up every year!

So this is about it! Sorry for the lack of pictures, this is just a quick post to keep this active!
So what are you obsessed with at the moment?! What are your favourite candles?

34. Current obsessions



Hello yall lovely critters!

Yeat again we're with another post about our current obsessions... We're gonna try it do it monthly! We wanted to do it by the start of the month but just didn't get round to it! Hahaha Anyway, on to the beef, at the moment we're loving:

1. One Direction's "Ready to Run"
We love a bit of One Direction and this song is just insane! It sounds like "Happily" and "Strong" (which casually are our faves from their previous album) had a baby. It's got that feel-good, christmassy, indie vibe that we love with a bit of acoustic guitar and it just puts us in a great mood. To add up the lyrics are so damn beautiful!

2. Taylor Swift's "1989"
We've always loved Taylor and we weren't too keen on this musical change and on her going all 80's pop but we're actually loving it! "Blank space", "Style", "I wish you would"... We just can't pick a favourite! Such an amazing album with relatable lyrics and catchy melodies to dance to! Girl power!


3. Rimmel's Lasting Finish Foundation
We're both using it at the moment and we love it! It gives you a medium coverage and stage in place all day (we do use powder though) and leaves our skin looking flawless! We'll be repurchasing!


4. Pomegranate
It is such a drag having to peel it off, but oh boy, does it pay off! We love having it with yogurt for breakfast, or alone/with other fruits as an afternoon snack or putting it on our salads! It is delicious and antioxidant!

5. Dirty Burger
This UK burger restaurants' chain is just so good! If you love a good burger then just go for it!

6. Superdrug's 3x2 deal
Isn't it amazing walking into Superdrug with 22 pounds and coming out with 6 products?! We think it's the perfect opportunity to cross things out of our wish lists! Unfortunately, it's ending this month, so hurry up and grab some bits and bobs, don't miss out!

7, Jeffrey Campbell's SIGLING booties
These are very similar to the Doc Marten's but with a very chunky sole and Caro needs to get her hands on them... NOW! They're so rock'n'roll and cool!

8. Channel-like backpacks
We both own one of these backpacks... They're perfect for someone who's always carrying lots of stuff around like us but still wanna look classy!



9.Polaroids
Now again we both have instant cameras and we love them little polaroids!

10. Frank from How To Get Away With Murder
If you watch the show you'll probs agree with us... Thanks Frank for providing us eye candy on every single episode! We just recently found out he was on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, but he looks so different with the beard! HOTNESS! 




11. Vita Coco
Caro doesn't like coconut but I (Mire) absolutely love it and find this the bestest way to stay hydrated! It's so yummy and I love the pineapple one... Unreal!

12. Ribena
We're both obsessed! We like every. single. flavour and try to stock up everytime we're in the UK! And now the temperatures keep dropping we like it hot!

13. Jerome Jarre
He's gotta be our favourite international viner! That strong french accent and smile just make our heart warm! We just can't not laugh at his crazy vines, he's just so outgoing, funny and positive and loves to see people smiling!



She's our favourite youtuber and blogger ever! She's so inspirational and funny and we just absolutely love her! And her style is so so on point! Ahhh!

15. Oxblood
This is our favourite colour apart from black and the fact that it goes with the season is just amazing! We love burgundy lips, boots, clothes, accesories... Just everything! And if it's also velvetty it's a win-win!


What are you obsessed with at the moment?

18. Current obsessions



Hi everyone!
We've decided we'll be posting about things we're obsessed about every once in a while. Whether it's music, beauty, fashion or food, we'll be talking about our 10 favourite things at the moment. So today we're showing you what we've been obsessing over for the last couple of weeks.

1. I'm not the only one- Sam Smith
Well we're obsessed with Sam Smith and his album in general but this song is on repeat all day errrrday. Soooooo good!

2. "Thinking out loud" video by Ed Sheeran
We know it's been a week since it was release but damn... We'd be watching it all day if we could, it's so sweet and emotional and Ed Sheeran is a beautiful human being and that song...

3. "How to get away with murder"
It's a new TV show and it only has 3 eps yet but we're totally obsessed! It's just too good and gets you on the edge for the whole episode. Murders, lawyers and Dean Thomas from Harry Potter? We're in! To add up we are crushing on hot teacher and lawyer Frank!

4. "Freak Show" the new American Horror Story season
Talking about TV shows of course we're obsessed with the new AHS season! It's so creepy but it's gonna be a good one! We love Jimmy Darling already I mean we'd stab people if he told us to! Not to mention classy diva Jessica Lange!


5. Chia seeds
These are considered a superfood as they're rich on most nutrients and we like to add them on literally everything from yogurts to salads to muffins! 

6. Rimmel London 128 Starry Red lipstick
Now it's not a secret we love a bit of oxblood and burgundy but now autumn's here all we want are vampy lips! It's Caro's new favourite lipstick!

7. Knee high boots
Mire had been obsessing over knee high and thigh high boots for awhile and had to get her hands on some so she couldn't resist her H&M pair! Not taking them off even if it's not that cold! 

8. Emma Watson's He for She speech
We're still obsessed with it! So inspiring and powerful! Awesome to see a famous, beautiful and young woman standing up for women.

9. Starbucks' "Pumpkin Spice Latte"
We finally god this god-tasting drink in Spain! It was about time! It tastes spicy and sweet so it's perfect for this time! Loving it!

10. Ben Affleck
Everyone loves Ben Affleck (okay, maybe not as Batman) but after watching Gone Girl we're even more in love (seriously go watch it, it's such a good, plot-twisting movie!).




We hope you enjoyed the post! What are you obsessing over at this very moment?
