the brighton diaries



I went travelling again, didn't I? Brighton was the destination of choice this time and I had the best time. I fell in love with the city when I was there for a couple of days last october and fell in love even more now, when we stayed for an entire week and had all the time in the world to get completely lost in it. Brighton just has everything I love: individual colourful shops and little cafes, cute alleys and lanes, art, a huge lgbt community, creativity, and of course the beach.

Now, I planned on doing a haul-post much like the one I wrote about Toronto but I actually only bought a Mac eyeshadow refill in the mermaidy shade 'Steamy' to put in one of the palettes me and my girlfriend own together (I know, the benefits are endless...) and two wild eyeliners (NYX vivd brights in the shade Blossom)  and gold (Lush shade Fantasy). And even though  I've had a lot of fun walking around with dots of gold underneath my eyes there is only so much I can say about that. So instead I thought I could list my favourite spots/things we did. Most of it is going to be extremely touristy and I doubt anyone who has ever been will learn something new, but everything in that town i just so pretty and worth a mention so here we go.

What I did in Toronto: Sephora Haul



It's been almost two months since my last blogpost so let's just put an end to my good intentions right away. Apparently I really don't have it within me to keep a blog up to date. In all honesty though I also have been really busy (playing Pokemon Go) and I even travelled across the Atlantic. Which is what broad me here today because I happened to have been to the magical land of Sephora. Or, actually, one of the magical lands of Sephora. I went to Toronto, Canada to visit my friend Nikita for a week and during my stay I shamelessly dragged her into every Sephora around town exactly seven times. But since us Europeans are only rarely blessed with a sighting of a Sephora-store across the continent, I thought it might be interesting to do a little Sephora haul.
