Inspire yourself #3

Ove godine sam zapocela i nekoliko novih serija postova poput Inspire yourself, u kojoj dijelim neke inspirativne slike s Tumblra s vama, 4th of July posts, u kojima sam napravila nekoliko manikura, make up look i nekoliko outfit ideja, te sam ovu jesen zapocela sa 31 day nail challengem koji je jos uvijek u tijeku (zahvaljujuci skoli i mojoj iznimnoj ljenosti...).
Ovdje ću stati, idem se spremati za večeras :)
This year I've started a few new series such as Inspire yourself, where I share inspirative Tumblr pics with you guys, 4th of July posts, where I did a couple of manicures, a make up look and some outfit ideas, and I also started with the 31 day nail challenge this Fall and I' m still doing it (thanks to school and my extreme lazyness...).
I'll stop writing now, I have to get ready for tonight :)



A sada, još ću vam samo poželjeti divan i siguran doček i sve najljepše u novoj 2015.!!
And now, I just want to wish you all a wonderful and safe New years eve and all the best in new 2015.!!
Irena <3

Merry Christmas and a big apology!

Hey blog!
Kao prvo, želim svima sretan Božić i sve najbolje za blagdane! Provedite ih u miru, s voljenima, nauživajte se i najedite :)
Firstly, I wish you all a merry Christmas and all the best for the holidays! You may spend them in peace, with your loved ones, enjoying and eating :)

                                                                                 *

Kao drugo, objašnjenje za moj dugi nestanak..
Ovo je bila jedna duga i neočekivana pauza..
Trenutačno prolazim kroz svašta i u svemu tome blog je ostao zapostavljen. Jako mi je žao, najgore mi je kada se ovako nešto dogodi ali nisam htjela napisati tek tako, neki kratki bezvezni post samo da popunim blog, nego sam htjela pričekati malo i napisati neki kvalitetni i inspirativni post. Ovaj blog sam počela pisati sa 12 godina i nisam ni u ludilu razmišljala da ću 3 godine kasnije i dalje biti sva u tome a kamoli da ću imati osobe koje svraćaju ovdje i čitaju moje smotane postiće. Kroz ovih par godina bloganje je postalo velik dio moga života i želim se nastaviti time baviti. Nemogu obećati svakodnevne postove, nemogu obećati ni one svaki drugi dan ali mogu obećati da ću dati sve od sebe da proguram još ovih par zadataka iz challenga i da onda počinjem sa uobičajenim postovima, o nekoliko tema koje me zanimaju a nadam se i vas! Zato, još jednom, ispričavam se zbog ne redovitog postanja i hvala vam svima koji ste još uvijek tu uz mene <3
Secondly, an explanation for my long disappearance..
This was a long and unexpected break..
Right now I'm going through a lot and in all that mess I left my blog behind. I'm so sorry, it's the worst when something like this happens but I didn't wanted to write a little, stupid post just to fill the blog, I wanted to wait a little and write a quality and inspiring post. I started writing this blog when I was 12 and never, in my craziest thoughts, I have ever thought that 3 years later I will still be all crazy about it, let alone that somebody will actually visit my blog and read my silly posts. Through these few years blogging became a big part of my life and I want to continue doing it. I can't promise that I'll post everyday, I can't promise I'll post every other day but I can promise that I'll try my best to finish this challenge and then I'm starting with my usual posts, about a couple of things that I'm interested in, hopefully, you are too! So, once again, I'm sorry for non regular posting and thank you all that are still here with me <3

                                                                                   *

A sada ću vam samo još pokazati moju Božićnu manikuru, inspiriranu lampicama za bor!
And now I'll just show you my Christmas mani, inspired by Christmas lights!

Koristila sam / I used:
O.P.I Dulce de leche
China Glaze Liquid leather
thin brush
e-bay rhinestones

Evo, to bi bilo to za večeras!
Laku noć, Irena :)
Well, that would be all for tonight!
Good night, Irena :)

I don't really know what to say except, here's a new mani and I hope you'll like it!

Koristila sam / I used:
China Glaze Liquid leather
Essence Choose me
Max Factor Fantasy fire
Maybelline Urban lemon
Essence Lily Bloom
dotting tool and thin brush
kitchen sponge

31 day challenge: Day 18 - Half moon

Hey!
Večeras ću biti kratka jer sam jako umorna. Ovaj tjedan je bio prilično stresan i jedva sam dočekala vikend da se mogu više posvetiti noktima i blogu :) Još ću samo napomenuti da su mi svi nokti oslabili i morala sam  se vratiti kockastom obliku... a bili su tako dugi i lijepi kme kmee :/
Today I'll be short bc I'm sooo tired. This week was a really stressful one and I couldn't wait for weekend to come so I can do my nails and write more posts :) Also, I have to say that all of my nails got week and I had to go back to square shape... and they werw so pretty and long boo hooo :/

Koristila sam / I used:
Kiko 310
Essence Cotton candy
New age no name brown polish
China Glaze Liquid leather

Nakon što se narančasti lak osušio, napravila sam polumjesece sa bijelim i dodala sitni leopard uzorak. Zapravo je teže nego izgleda ali mi se sviđa kako je ispalo. Na drugoj ruci sam bila prelijena napraviti isto pa sam samo na accent nokat napravila leopard uzorak. Inače, ovaj Kiko lak mi je poklonila frendica (<3) i trebaju mu 2 sloja za divan sjaj te se brzo suši. To mi je prvi Kiko lak ali nadam se ne i posljednji :D
After the orange polish dried, I made half moons with white and added tiny leopard print. It's actually harder then it looks but I like how it turned out. On the other hand I just did leopard print on accent nail bc lazy. Also, this Kiko polish was a gift from my friend (<3) and it requires 2 coats for perfect glossy finish and it dries really fast. This is my first but certainly not last Kiko :D

31 day challenge: Day 17 - Glitter

Hey!
Današnji zadatak mi je bio težak, nisam znala koji lak odabrati :D Na kraju sam se odlučila za prekrasne jesenske duochrome šljokice.
Today's task was a hard one for me, I didn't know what polish to choose :D In the end I went for gorgeous Fall duochrome glitters.


Koristila sam / I used:
China Glaze Liquid leather
Max Factor Fantasy fire

Stavila sam jedan sloj šljokica. Slike su malo mutne ali nadam se da vidite svu ljepotu ovog laka! Već kad smo kod slika, uskoro ću kupiti novi fotić i onda će napokon slike ličiti na nešto :)

I put one coat of glitters. Pics are a little bit blurry but I hope you can still see the gorgeousness of this polish! Speaking of pics, I'm going to buy a new camera soon and then, finally, my pictures will look better :)

Hvala na čitanju i laku noć! / Thanks for reading and good night!

31 day challenge: Day 16 - Tribal

Hey!
Vrijeme je za novu manikuru i novi oblik noktiju! :)
It's time for a new mani and nail shape! :)

Koristila sam / I used:
Maybelline mini colorama Urban lemon
Rimmel Sky high
Essence Tribal summer tip painters
Vollare flash 105G
China Glaze Liquid leather
thin striping brush

Malo drugačiji tribal od svih mojih dosadašnjih ali mi se jako sviđa! Ispalo je neuredno na nekim mjestima jer sam imala problema s crnim lakom ali dobro, ne želim se žaliti :D
This is a bit different tribal then all of the others I did but I like it a lot! It turned out messy on a couple of places because I had problems with my black polish but, ok, I don't wanna complain :D



Hvala na čitanju! / Thnaks for reading!

31 day challenge: Day 15 - Delicate print

Hey!
Ljudi, pa mi smo (napokon) na pola challenga! :D Potrudit ću se ovih preostalih 16 dana postove objaviti čim prije da mi ostane vremena i za Halloween tematiku :)
Peeps, we're (finally) in the middle of this challenge! :D I will really try my best to post these 16 days asap so I have enough time for some Halloween stuff :)


Koristila sam / I used:
Essie Lapiz of luxury
Catrice Sand Francisco
thin nail art brush

Odlučila sam se za wowen basket print. Već dugo ga imam na to do listi i činio mi se baš dobrim izborom. I kombinacija boja mi se jako sviđa :)
Ok, to je sve za danas od mene, trebam se ići odmoriti za sutra :D
I've dicided to go for wowen basket print. I have it on my to do list for a while and it seemed a really good choice. And I really dig color combo :)
Ok, that's all from me for today, gotta get fresh for tomorrow :D


Hvala na čitanju i laku noć! / Thanks for reading and good night!

31 day challenge: Day 14 - Flower nails

Heyyy!
Današnjom manikurom nisam u potpunosti zadovoljna, sve je to u glavi stoput bolje izgledalo ali nakon nekoliko kompimenata od frendica ipak sam ih odlučila objaviti. Inače nevolim baš cvijetiće na noktima osim ružica tako da je ovo bio izazov za mene a moje inače skromne vještine u nail artu su ovaj put zakazale :D
I'm not really satisfied with today's mani, it all looked better in my head but after a few compliments from my friends I decided to post it anyways. I don't like flowers on nails except from roses so this was a challenge for me and my modest nail art skills failed this time :D

Koristila sam / I used:
SGGM 52
Essence
black permanent marker

                                                                *             *            *

Žao mi je što sam ovako kratka danas ali sam jako umorna pa ću vas ovdje pozdraviti. Hvala na čitanju!
I'm sorry for being this short today but I'm really tired so I'll say goodbye here. Thanks for reading!

31 day challenge: Day 13 - Animal print

Hey!
Nakon tjedan dana ne postanja, odlučila sam ne biti lijena i redovito objavljivati postove jer osim challenga imam još puno zanimljivih postova za vas :) Pa, pred vama su moji životinjski nokti i nadam se da će vam se svidjeti!
After a week of no posting I decided to stop being a lazy ass and start posting regularly bc beside the challenge I have many more interesting posts for you guys :) Well, in front of you are my animal nails and I hope you will like them!


Koristila sam / I used:
OPI Pure lacquer nail apps

Naljepnice su vrlo jednostavne za staviti: odlijepiš ih sa folije, pažljivo staviš na nokat i prstom zagladiš te odrežeš višak, eventualno izrašpaš ako su neravni rubovi. Naljepnice sam dobila od moje drage frendice Lucy, hvala Ti <3
Naljepnice traju jako dugo uz minimalna oštećenja, ja sam ih imala 10 dana :D
Stickers are really easy to use: you peel them off of a foil, carefully place them on a nail and using your finger you smooth them so there are no bubbles and you cut or file the excess in case of uneven edges. I got them from my friend Lucy, thank You <3
Stickers last really long with minimal chips, I had them for 10 days :D



Hvala vam na čitanju! / Thank you for reading!

31 day challenge: Day 12 - Stripes

Hey!
TGIF, jelda? :) Pa, evo jednog laganog postića dok gledam Teoriju velikog praska.
Prvom verzijom manikure nisam nikako bila zadovoljna pa sam ju nedavno napravila opet i zato imam drugačiji oblik noktiju. Pokazat ću vam je ali samo jednu sliku jer je stvarno grozno ispala :$
TGIF, right? :) Well, here's a simple post while I'm watching The big bang theory.
I wasn't satisfied at all with the first version of this mani so I did it again so that's why I have a different nail shape. I'll show you only one pic bc it really turned out bad :$

Ok, sada kad ste vidjeli i taj užas, krenimo na pravu manikuru :D
Ok, now, when you saw that disaster, we can move onto a real mani :D

Koristila sam / I used:
China Glaze Liquid leather
striping tape small dotting tool
Catrice Captain Sparrow's boat (samo za malene točkice / only for those little dots)

Dosta jednostavna ideja, našla sam ju na Tumblru ali nemam pojma čija je. Vidljiv je tip wear a manikuru sam slikala jutro nakon što sam je napravila.. tako je to sa crnim lakom haha. Doduše ovaj oblik noktiju je dosta zeznut jer ti nakon dva dana više ne izgledaju onako špicasti pa ih moraš opet izrašpati. Koje su to komplikacije kod nas lakoholičarki :D
Really a simple idea, I got it of Tumblr but I don't know the source. You can see the tip wear and I took this pic a morning after I did it.. perks of black nail polish haha. Actually, this nail shape is pretty messed up bc after 2 days your nails don't look that pointy anymore so you have to file them again. What a complication for us polish addicts :D

31 day challenge: Day 11 - Polka dots

Hey!
Na kraju još jednog vikenda, evo mene s novim postom i novom manikurom! Trenutačno vani kiša pljušti i baš me nekako uhvatila volja za pisanjem :D
Današnji zadatak su točkice a s njima započinjemo drugu trećinu ovog challengea!
At the end of another weekend, here I am with a new post and a new mani! At this moment, rain is pouring outside and I really got in the writing mood :D
Today's task are polka dots and with them we're starting another third of this challenge!

Koristila sam / I used:
Essence Naughty and pink
Essie Fiji
dotting tool
Essence nail decoration set Fantastic metallics

Iskreno, nemam pojma šta je to na accent noktu, samo sam znala da želim koristiti te velike šljokice haha. Ova manikura mi je totalno Minnie Mouse i jako mi se sviđalo malo za promjenu nositi ženskaste, pinki nokte :D
Honestly, I have no idea what's goin' on on my accent nail, I just knew I wanted to use big glitters haha This mani is totally Minnie Mouse and I really liked wearing girly, pinky nails for a change :D

31 day challenge: Day 10 - Gradient

Hola!
Danas sam kratka jer sam jako umorna, obećajem, u sljedećem postu ću napisati više od dvije rečenice, obećajem! :D
Today I'm short bc I'm really tired but I promise, in the next post I'll write more then 2 sentences, I promise! :D

Koristila sam / I used:
SGGM 52
SGGM 159
Essie Fiji
Essie Lilacism
permanent marker

Ova je manikura u čast ovim divnim sunčanim danima koji završavaju takvim zalascima da je to nevjerojatno! Dobro, a i vidjela sam sličnu manikuru pa sam ju htjela jednom napravit :D
Opet sam malo razmazala marker sa nadlakom ali to je ta moja glupost koja nikako da shvati da markeru treba vremena da se osuši i da trebam oprezno stavljat nadlak..
Oh, raspričala se ja... danas je jedan od onih hiperaktivnih dana kad je sve smiješno i blesavo tako da ću sad prestat bezveze blebetat haha
This mani is in honor of these few sunny days that are ending with beautiful sunsets, you can't even imagine! Ok, and I saw a similar idea for a mani so I wanted to try it once :D
Again I smudged my drawing a bit with top coat but that's just me being silly and not realizing that marker is drying slowly and I should be careful with top coat..
Oh, I started to babble.. today it's one of those hysterical days when everything is funny and silly so I'm just gonna stop talking now haha




Hvala vam puno na čitanju! / Thank you so much for reading!

31 day challenge: Day 9 - Rainbow nails

Hey!
Vani je napokon divan i sunčan dan a mene je uhvatila prehlada... Osjećam se kao ljenivac jer sve radim tako usporeno haha
Today finally is a beautiful, sunny day and I caught a cold... I feel like a sloth because I'm doing everything so slow haha

                               

Ok, šalu na stranu, danas ću vam pokazati devetu manikuru u ovom challengu! Nadam se da vas ne smeta što postam svaki drugi dan ali zaista nemam vremena ni snage svaki dan pisati post, lakše mi je jedan dan urediti slike i započeti post a drugi dan ga urediti do kraja :)
Opet sam skrenula s teme, najbolje da vam odmah pokažem manikuru :D
Ok, enough joking, today I'll show you my ninth mani in this challenge! I hope you don't mind me posting every other day but I really don't have enough time or strength to write a post every day, it's easier for me to edit pics and start a post one day and then the other to wrap it up :)
Again, I've gone off the subject, it would be the best if I just showed you my mani :D

Koristila sam / I used:
Essie Fiji
striping tape from eBay

Ovu ideju sa striping tapeom imam već dugo ali mi se sad čini da sam ipak mogla nešto više šareno smisliti. Oh, well, i dalje mi se sviđa :)
A  sada me ispričajte, idem pripremati kekse i čaj jer se baš osjećam nekako produktivno! Iako, nisam niti prišla knjigama za školu tako da možda i nisam baš toliko vrijedna  haha :D
I've had this striping tape idea for a while in my head but now it seems to me that I could make something more colorful for today. Oh, well, I still like it though :)
And now, excuse me, I'm going to make some cookies and tea bc I fell really productive right now! Ironically, I hadn't even looked at my school books so maybe I'm not that hardworking haha :D

31 day challenge: Day 8 - Metallic nails

Hey!
Danas ću biti kratka jer uređujem još nekoliko postića a već je dosta kasno :D
Today I'll be short bc I'm editing a few more posts and it's pretty late already :D

Koristila sam / I used:
Golden Rose matte 15
essence tip painter grape metallic rocks
Look by Bipa nail liner blue pearl
Golden Rose nail liner 138

Odlučila sam se na kombinaciju mat i sjajnih noktiju s obzirom na to da metallic lakovi su jako sjajni sami po sebi. Ovo je moj prvi Golden Rose matte lak i ugodno sam se iznenadila kad sam vidjela koliko je divan! Boja se sjaji gotovo holografski kada stavim nadlak i suši se jako brzo a trebaju mu 2 sloja. Ostali lakovi koje sam kosristila su tip painteri i to je učinilo ovu manikuru kratkom ali slatkom jer sam ju smislila i napravila u 15 minuta :D
I've decided to try out a combo of mat and shiny nails considering that metallic polishes are really shiny itself. This is my first Golden Rose matte polish and I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered how gorgeous it is! The color is almost holographic when you put on a top coat and it dries really fast requiring 2 coats. Other polishes I used are tip painters that made this mani short and sweet bc I imagined and made it in 15 minutes :D



Hvala na čitanju i vidimo se sutra! / Thanks for reading and I'll see you tomorrow!
Irena.
