Thing that bothers me the most about online shopping is that it is really hard to know if the clothes will be my size and not too big or too small. I have found some great internet clothes shops and want to share them with you. But i have no experience on buying clothes online. So i would really appreciate if you girls could share your experience :)

Some of online clothes shops which cached my eye:

1.ASOS.com (they ship international)

2.Debenhams.com (they also ship international)

3.Boohoo.com (they ship to Europe)

4.Hotmiamistyles.com (they ship international)

So please check these sites they are really great! And please tell me your experience on shopping for clothes online :)

Have a nice day,
Sugar <3

2010-01-27T17:20:00.010+02:00

Hi, girls!

I know that finding gifts for your boyfriend/husband sometimes can be 'mission impossible'. You cannot afford to buy things from your boyfriend's wishlist( as it always consists of such things as game consoles, cellphones, etc.) but you also don't want to buy him cheap valentine's day stuff. So, what is the best gifts for HIM on a Valentine's day that is affordable and also would surprise him?

1. A box full of his favorite candy bars

2. His favorite music CD or movie DVD

3. Funny T-shirt

4. Broken heart necklace

5. Valentine's day boxers

6. Framed picture of you and your boyfriend

That's all for now :)

What is your gift ideas for you boyfriend/husband?

Lots of love,
Sugar <3

Hi, girls!:)

You all know that Valentine's day is right at the corner and every girl wants to look their best on that day. Hope you all girls have a person to share your love with and won't be alone on this special day!

On Valentine's day I prefer pink or red shades of nail polish and it depends on you what style or details you will add to create your own lovely manicure. I've found some nail art ideas on the Internet and want to share them with you, maybe you'll find an inspiration for your Valentine's manicure.

Have a wonderful day,

Christmas time is coming

2009-12-06T17:56:00.004+02:00

Hello my lovely readers! :)

As you may have seen I have a new icon on the right side of my blog counting the days left till Christmas. I don't know why, but this year I can't wait for Christmas to come faster! I am all sooo into that festive spirit and can't wait to decorate my home :)

photo via drueandrebecca.com

I love christmas not only because everyone gets something from their beloved ones but also because it is actually the only time a year when all family gets to be in one place and to share all the joy with each other. Christmas is not only about presents but more about sharing beautiful moments with your family members and friends. I love to spend time in the kitchen helping my grandmother, aunt and mum to prepare Christmas dishes! :)

However, sometimes Christmas time can be very stressful for most of us because we can't find presents that we need, we have not enough money and so on. But don't let those things get your festive spirit down and better think of the positive things.

What about you girls? Are you in the Christmas spirit?

Have a wonderful week,

Contest entry: Supervillain's Character contest

2009-11-30T02:34:00.009+02:00

Hi, girls!

I made this look some time ago but haven't enough time to upload the pictures to my blog.

As the rules of this contest say, you have to create a photo story. So enjoy my Vampire girl story below:)

Legend of vampire girl

Legend tells that hundred years ago in dark castle lived a mysterious girl. People say that she spent all days sleeping and woke up only at night. Everyone was scared because more and more people were found dead with a bite mark on their neck.

One day, Vampire girl was sleeping as usually but suddenly she woke up as she heard the human voices in her castle.

She was very angry because someone dared to enter her castle without invitation and what is more, they waken her up of her sleep!

Vampire girl was so furious that she even started screaming!

-Who dare to enter my castle without my permission???

Vampire was so livid that she transformed into bat and flew to find intruders. The last sight was released from the mouths of two dying men.

Vampire girl transformed from the bat. Now she was happy.

The sweet taste of blood was in her mouth and now she was satisfied.

Do you want to enter my castle?

Review: bareMinerals Rocker Eye Tutorial kit

2009-11-27T01:49:00.009+02:00

Hello, girls! :)

As you all know, my blog is beauty related so i decided to start writing reviews on beauty and makeup products. So for my first review I chose bareMinerals Rocker Eye Tutorial kit. I have never used any of bareMinerals products before because we do not have this brand in Lithuania and when I got this kit, I was very excited to try it. Rocker Eye tutorial kit is one of 6 other tutorial kits and you can buy it for $38 from www.bareescentuals.com

It comes in a little cute box as you can see above. On the side of the box you can see the picture of all things which are inside.

This kit includes:

bareMinerals 1980s eyeshadow 0.28g
bareMinerals Rock Star eyecolor 0.28g
bareMinerals Black Leather liner shadow 0.28g

and also a double-ended rock'n'roll brush

Above is the rock'n'roll brush. The smudge end on the left sweeps and pats eyeshadow on the eyelid as base and crease contour shades while the pointed end on the right can be used wet or dry to sweep eyeshadow on the upper, lower and the inner lash lines for a dramatic frame.

This brush works very well with all types of eyeshadow and makes application very easy and smooth.

In this kit you will also find eyeshadow in 3 different colors. I was surprised with the quality of eyeshadow as they are very pigmented and it is really easy to apply them on your eyelid. Although, one eyeshadow piece are only 0.28g and it is extra small in size, it is so pigmented that you only need a small amount of product and it will definitely last for a long time. Colors of eyeshadow are in gradient shades from chrome to blackest black. These colors are great to create a smoky or dark rock princess look.

Above you can see swatches from lightest to the darkest eyeshadow. As you can see, all eyeshadow are very intense in color and also has glitters in it. Thing I don't like about these eyeshadow, is that all colors are very similar and it doesn't contrast when applied on the eyelid.

One more positive thing about this kit is that box is very smart made and has an upper section which includes instructions and shows some different looks and also describes some application techniques step by step.

All in all, I liked this kit. I think it is great for those who love dark and dramatic eyelooks and also for those who want to achieve smoky or rocker look. Eyeshadows are not only very pigmented but also are 100% natural. And double-ended brush is must have if you want to get professional look.

My rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ (4/5)

Hope this review will be helpful. If you have any questions about this kit, feel free to ask in the comment box below.

I will also make a look using this kit, so keep checking back:)

Have a nice day,

Hair: how to make your look different using sash

2009-11-24T00:30:00.000+02:00

Hi, girls!:)

I missed blogging sooo much but I was very busy with my school and I am so sorry for not commenting and answering to comments. Finally, I have some days off as my school is closed because of flu epidemic. I am happy that I have a mini holiday but also I have to take a special care of my health in order not to get sick:( So hello to lemon tea and garlic and other remedies to protect me from flu :D Hope you girls are not ill and if you are, then best wishes to you and get well soon!

Image via img.wonkette.com

*******

This is the post that was published some time ago in My Passport to style blog so if you haven't checked my post there, here is the opportunity to take a look at some ideas how to make your hair look different adding just a little detail.

I am sure, that every woman has a piece of fabric left after a sewing project. And if not, you can just grab a ribbon or hair sash.

It is better to use a piece of fabric in bright color for it not to fade in your hair. I used one in white as shown in the picture below.

You can really make a difference in your every day look by just adding this accessory to your hair.

And there are hundreds of ways how to use it and you can be as creative as you like.

I used the sash in 5 different ways and It only takes just a couple of minutes to do this, so don't be afraid to experiment!

First look is inspired by the 70's hippie style. This look is very trendy nowadays and you can see some celebrities as Nicole Richie wearing it like that. All you need to do is just grab your sash and incorporate it in a simple plait using a section of your side hair.

Another look is very similar to the first one. However, this one is not that hippie and makes you look like you are wearing a head band. You need to make a plait using the piece of fabric using a section of hair that are close to your ear. Then, using a couple of bobby pins clip the plait around your head to look like a headband.

Third look is one of the easiest to make and creates a look popular in 50's. You just tie it around your head.

Another look is very simple to make. You just have to wrap the sash around your hair. It looks very modern and can be worn to work or to school just to add some fun to your daily look.

The last look is the most funky but also very stylish nowadays. Just make a bow band of your sash.

These pictures are just an example of how you can style your hair and add some fun to your daily look.

Hope this tutorial will be helpful:)

And don't be afraid to try something new and creative!

Have a wonderful day,

Sugar <3

Hair: Doughnut bun shaper

2009-10-23T21:05:00.000+03:00

Hi, girls!:)

I've got a very long hair and love braiding, plaiting and making fun out of them so I decided to share some tips how to make one or another cute hairdo. This is my very first post in this category, so if you have any ideas or requests what should i do next, feel free to comment :)

Have you ever wondered how to get that sophisticated hair bun like celebrities have?

I have always thought that this hairdo is really hard to do and only could be done by the professionals in the hair salons. But trust me, I have found a simple way to get a very similar look and it is that easy that everyone could do that.

The most important thing you need is the doughnut bun shaper which looks like this:

They are in different shapes and colors so you could choose one similar to your hair color. I am sure that you can find it in every hair accessories shop or just buy it from eBay! It costs about $4. It is not that expensive but if you want to save some money and time, you can just spend 10 minutes and make one yourself.

Things you need:

1. A long warm sports sock.

2. One tight stocking.

3. Scissors.

Firstly, cut the front parts of the both socks so it would look something like this:

Now follow and do everything as shown in pictures below (you can use socks in your favorite colors):

And finally, you should get something like this and now the bun shaper is ready to use!

How to get a beautiful bun using the bun shaper:

(1)Now brush your hair and simply pull your hair into a ponytail and secure it with a scrunchy or an elastic band.

(2)Pull your hair through the center of your doughnut bun shaper.

(3) Spread your hair and wrap a bun shaper with them and then pull another scrunchy to firm your bun.

(4)Coil and tuck the remaining hair in circular fashion around the doughnut, pinning diagonally

with hairpins or long bobbypins.

You can be as creative as you like and add more hair accessories, flowers or anything you like. You can also make some plaits integrated into your bun.

Hope that it will be a helpful tutorial:)

Have a nice day,

Sugar<3

Dear ladies ,

This post is not beauty related but it should be very important for every woman. Two bloggers Lauren and Sharon is having a project to help support cervical cancer. That is a very serious problem and a lot of women are afraid to check their health condition and when they finally do a cervical smear test, it can be too late to cure the cancer. For more information please check these links: http://www.mypassporttostyle.blogspot.com/ and http://laurensloves.blogspot.com/

If you have noticed, there is a new icon in the right side of my blog. You can also grab it and upload it into your blog to increase the awareness about cervical cancer to your readers.

What is more, these ladies are having a competition for this worthwhile cause called "heels that heal". all you need to do is send a picture of you wearing your favorite heels. I've made a picture of my favorite heels and edited it to look like a wallpaper.

So remember, health is the most important thing and never wait till the last minute!

Love,

Sugar

NOTD: black+pink=violet

2009-09-27T23:34:00.005+03:00

Hi, pretty ladies!:)

Today's NOTD is kinda different, because I made an experiment and want to share it with you.

So, some time ago i've got my nails polished in black and I was bored and pink nail polish was staring at me :D LOL. Well, i've just applied a thin layer of that pink polish and OMG!!! I was soooo amazed by the result. I've got an extremely beautiful and different color! So here is the tutorial if you don't have a violet nail polish or just want to experiment.

Things you need : 1. black nail polish

2. pink shimmering nail polish

you can use something like this:

Firstly, apply two coats of black nail polish and let it dry. Your nails should look something like this:

Then, apply only one coat of pink nail polish and also let it dry.

And the result should look like this:

Isn't that color beautiful? It has a twist of dark and I love it.

What do you girls think?

Have a good start of the new week,

And now take the darker one and apply one or two coats of it all over your nails.

Here is how your nails should look:

Let them dry for about 10 minutes.

#2. Now take a medical bandage and cut a little piece of it.

Then fold that piece of bandage to look like this:

SO here is the picture, LOL! Isn't that funny? Guess wich one of girls am I? If you think that I am that weirdo with giant eyes and long long hair, you are RIGHT! haha! In this picture you see me, my sister (that sitting princess), and my cousins. It was my grandma's birthday and I am about 9-10 years old in the pic. This picture doesn't have a special story to tell, but there is one funy thing i can tell you :) When i was little and when somebody wanted to take a picture of me I always tried to pop my eyes as much as possible :D I think it was my way to avoid getting pictures of me with closed eyes...And believe me, I have a nice picture collection of that poping eyes :D So that's the story.

Another tag was given to me from two very nice ladies Elsa of Everyday is a blessing and Poppy of poppy'sbeauty . Thanks a lot, sweeties! :)

6 THINGS THAT MAKES ME HAPPY TAG:

#1. My amazing BOYFRIEND. He is the best person in the world! Only he can stand my terrible temper. I don't know what happens with me sometimes, but I can become a real bitch (from yelling to the non-stop crying). And only he finds a way to calm me down. I love him sooo much <3

#2. Bauty related things (make-up,nail art, hair and body care, clothes and shoes). I think that these things can make every girl/woman really really happy and special.

#3. Singing/playing piano. I haven't mentioned it earlier but I have finished a music school and since kindergarten I was very close with music and when all my friends were playing outside I was practising for my piano lessons every day. There were some hard moments and I even wanted to give up and have a normal kid's life. But now I love music so much and I am very glad i've finished the school. Playing piano makes me very relaxed and one of the ways I can express myself is singing.

#4. Travelling. Yes, travelling is my passion, it is so exciting to visit different countries and to find more about other cultures. I hope I will have enough money in the future to travel a lot with my boyfriend. I've visited these countries: Europe--Germany, Poland, Latvia, Hungary, Croatia, Crete island, Asia--Russia(Moscow), USA--Miami, NewYork, San Diego, Los Angeles and Caribean islands (Grand Cayman, Belize, Honduras, Cozumel).

#5. Friends and family. I really love my family but sometimes they are so annoying. And about friends.. i spend the biggest part of my freetime with the BOYF but i am really happy to spend some time with my girls and to talk about things that boys will never understand:D

#6. Blogging. Yes, thanks for all the girls for the cutest comments and your love. It really means a lot!

I know that the tag is for 6 things that makes me happy, BUT...I need to add one thing that always makes me soooo happy as a little child. so that is...

#7. West highland white terrier. OMG, these puppies are soooo adorable. Every time I see this baby, I become such a kid and start begging my boyfriend to have one :D I am really in love with them and want one for myself but we will probably have one only after moving to our own place ...boo :(

Hi, girls!

Amazing and very beautiful blogger Holly from yummy mummy's beauty blog is having a very funny contest. You have to recreate any british celebrity look. For my entry i chose Amy Winehouse because of her different,extravagant style. I really liked her music, but poor Amy got addicted to the drugs and her career has been forgotten. But i hope she will comeback to the normal life with the help of her parents. SO back to the look. This is my inspirational picture:

And here is what I came up with:

So, that's it :) hope you like this look !

Have a nice day,

Sugar <3

It was so cute what I didn't want to look what was inside:D And then I finally opened that cute box it was not a little present inside but it was a box full of goodies! THANKS TALI soooooo much!!! You are such a kind person and you made me feel like a little girl unwrapping the prettiest Cristmas present!!! So please make sure to check the blog of the pretty Tali!

Contest entry: Luxury Lust

2009-07-31T23:03:00.008+03:00

Hi, everyone!

Pretty blogger Robyn from http://www.fashionista514.com is hosting a Luxury lust-designer ispiration contest. So here is my entry.

I decided to make a look inspired by Chanel. For me Chanel is always connected with two crossed golden or black letters C. Chanel is also creates the most luxuriuos designs, in my opinion. I also adore how expensive every collection of them looks. They also always make the best makeup for their models and I love how they make models' hair for campaigns.

I tried to create an expensive, golden and black look. For my inspirational photo I actually combined 3 pictures of different details which mostly inspired me for my look. So this is chanel logo, bag and a model from the 2008 fall collection.

And here is what i came up with:

In first picture I did my look to create the campaign of Chanel glasses! hehe, I would be the luckiest girl to participate in Chanel photoshoot:D

And other pictures are for the make-up:

Hope you guys like it,

Till the next time! <3

Beach time

2009-07-30T00:22:00.014+03:00

Hi, pretty followers!

I am back home from our trip to the beach:) We've been there just for 3 days because my baby is working hard and couldn't have more that 3 days off of his work. But we really had the most fantastic time together! The sun was shining all the time, the weather was amazing and the waves were soooo huge!!! I even got myself some tan!! yey ^_^

The view from our apartament was also spectacular. We had very long evening walks by the seashore and enjoyed talking to each other:) I love my boyfriend so much and he is the most wonderful and understanding person in the world!!!

My Boyf took tons of pictures of me! hehe! yes, I am that person which loves camera :D

So here are the pictures from our trip. First day after our 4 hours trip with the train I was really tired that I got asleep at the beach :D It is so funny because I covered all my body with everything that was near. You can see me sleeping in the picture below.

As I said the waves were huge and it was so much fun jumping over them.

That's me in the picture below trying to get used to the cold water :D

And of course our initials in the sand <3

Here is the view from our apartament and a beautiful rainbow.

Me posing in front of the ancient ship.

The last day of our trip we had an opportunity to visit the sea museum and see some underwater plants and animals and a fantastic exibition of the anchors from the ancient times to today. So check the pictures from there below:)

Hope you guys like it:)

Have a great evening,

Sugar<3

Contest entry: Grimm's fairytale character

2009-07-22T23:42:00.008+03:00

Hi, girls!

Pretty blogger from http://theglossgoss.blogspot.com is having a Grimm's fairytale character contest. I decided to enter that contest! My favorite Grimm's fairytale is The Snowhite. And the contest rules require to add a twist of dark so i chose not the snowhite but her evil mother. The evil mother is really interesting character for me and I really tried to achieve her angry look when her mirror told her that she isn't the most beautiful looking person in the world. So this is my look:

What products I used:

Contest entry: Favorite book character

2009-07-20T02:11:00.014+03:00

Hi, my lovely readers!

A lot of contests are going on right now and I really love to take all the challenges of making something interesting:)

Pretty blogger kawaiikao is hosting a favorite book character contest and here is my entry.

I am a big fan of books since my childhood.

One of my favorite books was The Little Mermaid because all the story is really pretty and the Mermaid is really beautiful character. Also since my hair are very long a lot of people started to call me "mermaid". I had a lot of fun while making this look! I also made a pair of blue artificial eyelashes to brighten all that look:)

So here is the result:

With artificial eyelashes

Some pictures with pretty shells

In picture below you cannot see my makeup,

but you can see my necklace from Mexico also made of shell

Without false eyelashes

Have a wonderful day,

Hi, girls :)x

I am sooo sorry for not blogging for such a long time. I've been very busy with my final projects at school. But school is over and I hope to blogg more at summer time. I have so much to tell you!

Look what i've got from my Love at our 2 years anniversary!

It is 188 eyeshadow palette I've wanted for ages from eBay. Thank you sooo much, Honey ! I love these eyeshadows because all colors are very vibrant and rich and it is really easy to apply it on the eyelid. What are your thoughts about this palette?

Last week me and my boyfriend attended Be2gether Festival which is the largest annual music and arts festival in Baltic countries. We stayed there for two days and spent nights inside the tent. First day was terrible because of the rain. We came to the festival at 10 p.m. and while we were trying to build our tent all of our stuff got wet, including my shoes (luckily Boyf got his wellies on). But whatever the weather was we had a great time listening to the music, dancing, doing crafts and just having fun. Here are some pics from there. Enjoy!

As i mentioned earlier i got to do my final projects at school and this year it was in Cinema Art.

We got to film, edit our own movies and even record a soundtrack for them. The hardest part of all that was editing it. I spent 48 hours without sleeping! So after the presentation i was really tired and sick. But here's the final project. It is a wordless movie and in English title would be : "Mr Bluepants and his tragical life". It is a very short movie, about 2 minutes, so enjoy watching :)

I am going to make a contest entry, so a new post will be able soon,

Have a nice day,

Smokey metallic look and other ramblings

2009-05-30T01:28:00.016+03:00

Hello sweeties :)

Here's a new smokey metallic eye look I did. I used grey and golden eyeshadows, black eyeliner and 3 coats of mascara.

I made this look some time ago and wanted to show it earlier but I've been very busy lately. The school is almost over and I can't wait till summer begins (even though it doesn't feel as summer at all!). It is raining all the time and it's cold outside. I feel sleepy and tired and i'm always in a bad mood (poor baby Boyf:D).

We are going to attend my Grandma's 65th birthday this weekend and she lives very close to the sea. yaay! We are very glad to have a seacoast in Lithuania and it is only 3 hours away from the capital city. I hope the weather will get better and we'll be able to sunbath a little, walk by the beach and just enjoy our time there. I promise to show you some pictures from there:P

This weekend is also very special to me because it is Our 2 years anniversary ♥. I love my Boyfriend so much and he is the only man I want to spend my life with.♥♥♥

Have a fantastic weekend,

Sugar

HOTs and NOTs

2009-05-28T16:21:00.012+03:00

Hello, my lovely readers! :)

Today I decided to make a list of things I find hot and things I find not so hot.

HOTs:

1. Blackhead/whitehead remover. I think this should work and I want one for me and for my BOYF:) Has anybody tried it?

2. Maxi dress in dark blue.

3. Hello Kitty necklace from ebay. Sooo cute.

4. Whatever eyeshadow palette.

5. Escada Moon Sparkle perfume. Love this smell and can't get enough of wearing it.

NOTs:

1. Music players in some blogs. It happened countless times when I was reading new blogs and suddenly loud music started to play. It is not funny to scare your readers!

2. Rain. It pisses me of when it rains more than five times a day.

3. My sister using my make-up.

What are your HOTs and NOTs of this week?

Love,

Sugar

The weather is getting better here and today is sooo sunny and warm. It is around 25°C. So I thought it would be a good idea to share my simple look of the day.

I only used a small amount of mineral foundation, a little bit of blush on my cheeks, lined my upper eyelid with a liquid eyeliner and finished with two coats of mascara on my lashes.

Here is how my eyes looked:

What products I used?

1. L'Oreal true match minerals foundation in golden beige.

2. Bourjois blush in ambre d'or.

3. Artdeco liquid eyeliner in black.

4.L'Oreal telescopic mascara in carbon black.

I did my nails in rich red colour and decorated with the silver glitter dots. So here is what i came up with:

Enjoy reading,

Nails of the day

2009-05-26T22:46:00.011+03:00

Some days ago I had too much free time so I experimented with my nails. It is not a usual look, but it is fancy and colourful summer look. So here's a result of my art:)

I used pink and neon green nail polishes then I applied some silver glitters in the centre of the green flower and finished with a top coat.

You can also try similar look with different colours and I'm sure it must look great too. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment and ask.

Have a good and creative day!

Love,

Sugar
