OotD: New Shirt from H&M

This is a Outfit of the Day that I wore to class on Thursday in the past week.

The shirt is a quarter-sleeve for this seasons H&M collection. The jeans are by Only from ages ago. The key necklace is from Claire's, from this spring I believe.

And a close up of the top.

I really love it. It has this beautiful off-white color and soft fabric.

I wore olive green toned pumps from Deichmann with the outfit, but I forgot to put them back on for the picture *ooops*

Powder against greasy hair

Just a quick tip I got from I can't remember where:

Any powder, from setting powder to blush or bronzer, will absorb the greasiness from your hair.

I have used this as a quick fix in the morning when I stayed over at a friends house or when I was busy all day and then wanted to go out after. And I found myself looking in the mirror wishing I always had dry shampoo with me.

Just brush some powder to your hairline, it will instantly absorb the excess oil and brush it out. It doesn't quite give the freshness of dry shampoo but is very helpful for a instant fix if you just have some essentials in your handbag...

The Perfect Butt

I just watched a tv show and they told how to figure out if your butt is perfect in proportion.

Apparently the key to the secret is a simple maths formula:

Your waist measurement

           -------------------------------- = 0.7

Your hip measurement

e.g. for me it's 73cm / 102 cm = 0.71 wooohooo!

And the closer you are to 0.7 the more perfect your butt is ;)

Personally I'm not so sure if it's really all just simple maths, but well I thought it was a fun thing to post.
And if your butt proportions are not mathematically perfect then all you need is the right pair of jeans...

Nail Art: Owl

That's what I painted my nails a couple of weeks ago for a family get together.

The nail polish is #02 Style me holo from the Essence Nails in Style Limited Edition. It's a very nice peacock feather inspired color. Perfect for this falls jewel tone trend.

The cute owl design was painted after a youtube tutorial by IHaveACupcake.
I just changes to colors up and painted it on one nail only, because I thought I would bring more attention to the design.

I seemed to work too since I got a couple of compliments on it :)
