Fun with tats - temporary tattoos

It’s time to discuss a favourite topic of mine - tattoos! But it’s not simply about tats - it’s a special topic on temporary tattoos that are a really cool and fun way to enjoy a trendy tattoo design for a little while. I am a big tattoo fan, I follow all new trends and the work of famous tattoo artists and I even draw tattoo design from time to time. I have already even chosen some tattoo designs that I’d like to get done on my body but I have not yet made my final decision. So that’s why I’m now enjoying temporary tattoos.

Do you remember when we were kids and we were all covered in colorful temporary tats during the summer vacation? Well if that’s what occurs to you when you hear about “temporary tattoos” then you have definitely missed a lot.

The overall chronology of how temporary tattoos got back to being popular goes kinda like this:

1. golden and silver boho design tattoos - they gained popularity about 5-6 years ago - very suitable for festival and events where you can rock a bold wild look

2. later on new alternative ways for tattooing got started getting popular because the interest in various temporary tats was obviously rising

3. some alternative style shops abroad, usually with a rock or grunge aesthetic started offering for purchase single temporary tattoo designs or even whole bundle sets - and all these were looking really cool, waaay cooler than the old tats that you remember from your childhood

4. many foreign artists and popular people introduced their own designs and collections temporary tats in collaboration with different brands and the products are now permanently in their shops

5. and now temple tattoos are super trending, can be found in various shops both abroad and in Bulgaria and the designs available are many and really cool and complex

I like temporary tattoos because they are fun and gives a chance to try out a new designs each time I want. Yes, I have concodered getting permanent tats but as a person who draws a lot and keeps up with all tattoo design trends, I often find new trends I like and I often update my decision on what designs exactly I’d like to get done. Temporary tattoos gave me a chance to try out many different design all of which I like I lot.

For everyone who has not yet decided on what design he likes the most or anyone who can’t get a teal tattoo because of their high skin sensitivity or allergies - i’d say that temporary tats are a great option. They give you a chance to enjoy the experience anyway. :)

Колекция HM TV Moschino <3

Най-накрая тук и е още по-стахотна отколкото очаквахме! <3 Новата колекция на HM, разработена в колаборация с Moschino, е цветна, дръзка, щура, секси, рок (да, аз винаги намирам рок влиянието и асоциациите :D).

Колекцията беше официално обявена на популярния музикален фестивал Coachella, така че още от пролетта всички веднага луднахме, чакайки да я видим с нетърпение - е поне аз със сигурност. :D След прекрасните аутфити от подобния проект на HM с Balmain, сега бях много любопитна и не знаех какво да очаквам, защото знам, че HM винаги искат да надскочат себе си и да бъдат още по-оригинални.

Самото представяне на колекцията се проведе с бляскаво модно ревю в Ню Йорк и всички модели са в продажба от 8-ми ноември, можете да ги разгледате на официалния сайт на HM България :) Моделите представят микс от екстравагантна градска мода, еклектични смели бляскави материи, много кожа и трендове от 90-те. А това са общо взето моите любими неща <3

Честно казано, HM TV Moschino абсолютно успя да оправдае високите ми очаквания! Не само, че повечето артикули се разпродадоха още в първите часове – и онлайн, и офлайн, а и аз като по чудо толкова много да харесам почти всичко от една колекция, което не ми се случва често и бях супер впечатлена (последно ми се случи с колекцията на Dolce&Gabana от 2017 между другото)!

Наснимах някои интересни модели в магазина, но съвсем не успях хвана всичко, просто няма как, а и доста от нещата явно са се раззели направо като топъл хляб, а аз отидох в магазина привечер след работа. Но да, бях следила онлайн ъпдейтите цял ден хаха :D ;)

Надявам се статията да ви е харесала и нямам търпение да чуя и вашето мнение за новата колекция в коментарите! :)

Brand new HM x TV Moschino collection 2019

It’s finally here and it's better than we expected it to be! <3 The new HM collection, created in collaboration Moschino is colorful, bold, wild, sexy, rocknroll  (yes :D I know I always the one finding rocknroll inspo & aesthetics in everything :D).

The new collection was announced as a project this spring during the Coachella music festival and we've been waiting for it impatiently ever since - well at least I surely have been :D After having seen the amazing Hm and Balmain collab I was very curious and didn't really know what to expect since HM are always trying to be better and more original and to surprise their customers even more with each new project.

We finally show the collection in a special runway show taking place in New York on 8th of November and all the items became available for online and offlin epurchase the same day - you can check out the official HM Bulgarian website :) All the clothes are a mixture of urban extravaganza vibe, eclectic and bold sequines and  textures, lots of faux learher and 90s trends. Well basically almost all I love is here <3

To be honest, the HM TV Moschino did more than fulfill my expectations! Not only did almost everything sell out in the forst few hours - both online and offline in stores - but I personally happened to like very much almost all the items which rarely happens and makes me feel really impressed (last time this happened was when I fell in love with the 2017 Dolce and Gabanna collection btw)!

I took some photos in store but there was no chance I manage to show you every piece because things were selling out like crazy and I visited the store after work. But I had beeen following all the online updates and was pretty wrll informed I shall say. :D

I hope you enjoyed this blog post and I can't wait to hear your opinion about the HM TV Moschino vollection in the comments below! :)

I've been loving band tees long before it was cool and all over the internet. Now I walk around the street and there are so many teen girls casually wearing Nirvana or Arctic Monkeys tees and it's totally cool for everyone around. But let me tell you it was not that easy to pull off such a look like 10 years ago. After the 80s band craze and everybody rocking band tees all the time it gradually became less and less popular to wear them.

So there I was trying to come up with a cute band tee outfit idea in the 00s. The only people to wear band tees a lot were real metalheads, mostly men and teenboy squads, and it was not really common to see a girl wearing a band tee. Respect to all the few brave girls who proudly started this trend together with me! So yeah, it was a pretty hard task for me to rock a band tee without getting some surprised looks. Who cares tho. It was fun and I was often pairing the outfit with loud rock coming from my earplugs.

But now that it's popular and trendy to wear band tee outfits I gotta say I feel like a queen. AC/DC shirt and a leather skirt? Yes! Stones tee and high heels? Yes please! Every choice is a good choice and the braver the combo the better the outfit.

New hairstyle & hair color

Hello, happy October and happy autumn! As part of my preparation for the new season, the fall trends and all the projects and events coming up for me, I decided to make a style change. So I recently got a new haircolor and hairstyle. Up until now I've been rockin' a long blonde hairstyle with dark ombre roots in my natural brown color. My hair was super long and hippie style, I actually liked it a lot but I felt I wanted to try something new. 

I had a pretty clear idea what I wanted my hairstyle to be. I wanted a lighter color and textured hairstyle, shorter bangs and a pinch of 'wild thing' haha becasue I'm a rock chick of course. I did my best to find photos of a color and a hairstyle I liked and then headed for my hairstylist appointment.

And here comes the best part. It's because I've been going to the same hair salon for about two years and the results are just always stunning. My stylist Petia always listens to me when I'm explaining to her what I want for my hair and then she does her magic and Voila! I look exactly as I wanted to. Thank you very much, Petia! :) And this time it was no exception, I was so happy when I got home that I immediately started taking selfies of course haha. If you're following me on Instagram, I bet you saw them in my stories. :D And now I'm ready for autumn and trying out different dos which I have decided to start doing more often in the future so stay tuned for more hair related blog post and photos!

Thank you for reading guys! I'd love to hear about your fave hairstyles, latest haircolor and hairstyle changes and more so tell me in the comments below! :)

JULY FAVORITES

So now that July is over, it's time for taking a look at my fave things from last month. The weather was great and I got to spend lots of time strolling around town and shopping.

#1 Aaaand I finally found and bought a wrap choker and I have been in love with it eversince. I've seriously been looking for one in the past few months and I was very happy to find this cutie. It has two star pendants that are both classy and kinda playful so it actually fits my style very very well. So expect to see it a lot in my outfit Insta posts haha.

#2 The next fave of mine is my brand new set of makeup brushes! I just love them already and I've only had them for like two weeks. I found them absolutely accidentaly but they are really soft and high quality. My makeup surely looks like ten times better now. Happy! :D

#3 Another July favorite of mine surely is my new fragrance. It's a present from my mom and it's a Pur Blanca perfume by AVON. I have loved this scent for so long guys, I had one a couple of years ago, then got another one and soon it was my to-go perfume. It lasts really long and it's a floral fragrance great for summer.

#4 I also included here my new elastic telephone wire hand/hair band. I honestly don't know how exactly to call it so I used all the words I came up with. :D It's comfy, cute and easily goes as a bracelet. And if you suddenly decide that you want to put your hair up? Voila! you also have a hair tie.

#5 And last but not least, another one of my July favorites is a present form my bff. It's Treacle moon's Marshmallow Heaven hand cream. No need to say it smells like marshmallows :D. I haven't tried any other products from Treacle moon yet but I definitely will be in the future because they all just smell so so good. And I'll keep you updated of course.

Now it's your turn. Do you like these? And how about your July favorites? Can't wait to read about it in the comments below. :)
