Feather extensions...


I am a bit funny when it comes to hair…I have never coloured my hair and I haven’t changed it much since I left school…(pretty lame I know)..I wanted to update it for some time now and do something more then just a trim… I was surfing online and came across feather extensions… I found out that Top Shop sells them so next day I went there and had it done…there are so many different ones you can choose from in any colour you can imagine…really nice girl helped me to choose mine and she also explained how to look after it etc and then she fitted them in which took few seconds :) you can wash them, brush them, style them and love them xxx

I have seen a really cute punk girl on a tube using something that looked like a black ball which was a lip balm in fact. I thought to myself what a clever idea and googled it when i got home and found out that Boots sells them.. it is just so cute I couldn't resist.. they have variety of different flavours and colours, I think I'm going to get coconut one too ;)

Summer stories. From Sasha with Love.


I went to Monaco

I caught the train from Cannes.. it took me about an hour and a half travelling along the beautiful cote d'azur to arrive in Monaco
I absolutely loved it! It was a Sunday afternoon so as you can imagine the place was deserted apart from a few tourists wondering around while the whole population of 36 thousand must have been enjoying their Sunday lunch :)
I visited the exotic garden (Jardin Exotique) which is a must see! The views are amazing and the garden is a peaceful and cool place to be. Another attraction is a walk inside the mountain(never in million years would I think that I would come to Monaco and go inside the cave)

A bit of info about the  Principality of Monaco. Bordered by France on three sides, with one side bordering the Mediterranean Sea, its centre is about 16 km (9.9 mi) from Italy, and is only 13 km (8.1 mi) north east of Nice, France. It has an area of 1.98 km2 (and a population of 36,371) making Monaco the second smallest, and the most densely populated country in the world. The traditional national language is Monégasque, now spoken by only a minority of residents





For my lunch I went to Stars’n’Bars where I munched on fish and cheese chips and drank the most horrendous drink ever…coke + vanilla ice cream (which according to my bf is the best drink you can get) I could not help but laugh about the look of it…it looks like muddy water with floating brown foam….but heyy it is tasty! (if you close your eyes)..again according to my
bf it’s a famous American drink :) ..I reckon it will go down well with salty pop-corn  in the cinema xxx

Michael Kors







Finally...after few years of searching I have finally found
what I was looking for...
unisex, over sized watch :)
Believe it or not I found it extremely hard
to actually find something I would like
and this Michael Kors watch (product code: MK5410)
fits my criteria perfectly.
I wanted a classic watch that looks simple yet cool
without girly diamante and stuff..something,
I could wear for years rather than a season, so anything neon or see-through, jelly or plastic-fantastic, was out of the picture..
I think they are originally gents watch..
but heyy who cares right?
I found them online but was a bit worried that it might look too big on my wrist
(I have tiny wrists & my mum calls me baby chick cuz of that)
anywaaayyyy I didn't want to look like Ben 10,
so I went to the Michael Kors boutique and tried them on
and to my surprise it was perfect.
The nice lady from the shop removed half of the bracelet
to fit my wrist and heyyy there i was ''the happy bunny''.

So now I wear it every day...
sleep with it shower with it
and read it a  bed story...
well...I'm in love

Summer stories. From Sasha with Love.

Summer stories. From Sasha with Love.



Tanning time.

I am naturally very pale…vampire pale >:)
I have been through fazes when I was hitting sun bed every other day
I had a faze when I was using different fake tan products, such as
St. Tropez, FakeBake etc.
But I wasn’t satisfied with either …Fake tan stinks and sun bed is just as bad as smoking
I had a faze when I just accepted my paleness..
Who said that pale aristocratic look is not attractive?
I had a faze when I was scared of sun..literally..i felt like my skin cells are aging with every second..i mean I was never a fan of frying myself on the beach like Nandos chicken… but this time I took it to extreme applying spf 50 during winter…

I am sure everyone will agree that sun kissed skin makes us look healthier, skinnier, blemishes are fading away…and you can finally put on that skirt without worring that your legs will attract
Social services (cuz they are so blue one will think your BF hits you or you are a heroin addict)
I think what is important is to find the golden middle and enjoy sun safely.

This is what I do on my holiday(hope it helps)
First 3 days I use spf 50 body and face (do not forget the ears…yes they do burn too)
Don’t forget the hat!!! I always forget mine and I always regret it
Try and not to be on the beach for longer than 3 hours at the time…applying product with spf
Ever so often. Another thing that I have noticed..is that people start to apply their cream as soon as they come to the beach…cream takes about 15-20 min to work so it does make a difference
So try and apply it at home before you get out..plus the journey to the beach can be enough to burn you.  Pay extra attention to areas that are easier to burn: shoulders, nose, ears, chest and feet. Drink plenty of water! I go through about 2-3 litres per day and I noticed that I feel refreshed more energized and headache (which can be a symptom with dehydration) goes away.
After first 3 days(sometimes longer) hopefully my skin adapt to the sun and I can use lower spf…normally if I notice a little redness I will try and avoid the sun next day. Also it is crucial to use after sun which cools down your skin, calms down the irritation and prevents it from peeling. I like Eucerin after sun and also other creams with aloe vera….you can also help your body to produce melanin with either taking the Bio Carotene pill but I prefer to get naturally and get it with food. Say hello to super food that provide beta-carotene:  sweet potatoes, carrots, kale, spinach,turnip greens, winter squash, collard greens, cilantro, freshthyme, cantaloupe, romaine lettuce and broccoli.
Have fun in the sun and stay friends not enemies :))))))


P.S. I am wearing H&M bikini, Republic hoodie, Billabong flip flops )))) 

Summer stories. From Sasha with Love.


...Southern France, unplanned holiday
...completely random...once again
I reminded myself
that life is too short so I decided to
take the advantage of my current
freedom and fly away from Olympic mad London
it wasn’t long until I start typing in Google
 (cheap tickets to Nice),
packed my bag, painted my toes and there I was flying to Nice
with Brussels Airlines(which I am very pleased with..
unlike the known cheap airlines that I normally use)
The stewardesses addressed me nothing else but mademoiselle..
(how adorable does that sound?!)..

as soon as I landed my very first
thought was ''OMG I cant breathe..'' i felt like a sponge bob on
a visit to his squirrel friend Sandy from Texas :))))(YouTube it if you haven’t seen it..
its hilarious)...the air was so dry and hot and weirdly
felt really heavy...but then ohhhh that holiday smell..one can not
mistake it for anything else...but i can summarize it as a
mixture of sea, spices, sun bathing cream, fruits..
I was in paradise...
