Thank you so much for coming back to my blog for another whole year, finding inspiration in my posts
and leaving such a wonderful feedback! I am more than happy to make a closure to 2015, welcome
the new year, and wish you all the joy, happiness and success in the months to come!
Jeans And Roses Blog takes some time off to recap, recharge and re-inspire.
Jeans And Roses Blog has always been more than just fashion trends and personal outfits, or make up purchases and beauty reviews! That is why the fourth post from the "Best of 2015" series takes a look back at some of my favorite lifestyle posts - check out the topics by clicking on the link to the original post under the each photo! What are the topics you would like to see and read more on the blog in the future?
Whether exciting or scary (or probably both), but we are now officially ten days away from the new year! And if you have not been already, then I am sure now you will be busy creating plans for 2016 or at least figuring out what to kick start January with.
For me, organizing and planning is just the most natural thing in the world (hello, Virgo) and all the calendars, planners and worksheets are my BFFs. I know many of you rely on the phone apps, but still there is something about having a tangible piece of paper and a pen that can help you map out the entire year, set your goals and add an important date or an event. So today I am sharing with you links to some of my favorite 2015 calendars I have found on the web - not only they are so nicely designed, but they are free for you to download and print at your home!
1. Make up brand to use // Urban Decay. To me, primers and setting sprays are one of the most important items to have in a make up stash,
and Urban Decay has got them absolutely on point; plus their concealers are
amazing and so are the Naked Flushed (blush & bronzer) palettes. And how
can I forget the eyeshadow palettes this brand is probably most popular for –
from equally coveted Naked 1,2 and 3; to perfect everyday Naked Basics.
2. Mascara to wear//Benefit They're Real Mascara, one of the most raved mascaras - for
all the justified reasons. It lengthens, curls, volumizes, lifts and separate lashes with the
long-wearing, glossy formula; and gives illusion that you are
wearing the fake eyelashes.
3. Skincare item to use // I am choosing facial sprays/mists, the products I got absolutely hooked on over the last year. From refreshing, toning, hydrating, soothing, pore-reducing and what not ... I love using different ones depending on the time of the year and the condition of my skin.
4. Highstreet store to shop from //This was a long weigh in between Zara and
H&M…You all probably know Zara is
my favorite store, but if I was forced to choose just to shop in for the rest of
my life I had to opt for the Swedish brand. Why? It has a perfect selection of
both basic and trendy clothing and accessories and, unlike with Zara, I never have to worry about the sizes or the pants/dress length (tall girl problems).
6. Lipstick to wear every day// MAC Peach Blossom. Described by MAC as frosted cool nude, it is a lovely peachy pink color
that is sheer but buildable with multiple applications. The formula is
"creemesheen", meaning it hits the perfect spot between moisture and pigment.
7. Eyeshadow palette // Urban Decay Naked Basic. Just the right
every day palette consisting of five neutral matte colors and one shimmering one; all of which can help me
create of everything from no make up look to a smokey eyes look.
8. Hair brand to buy from // John Frieda. Such a great
selection of products coming in different ranges depending on your hair type
and need; and every single one of which I have tried so far (Frizz Ease,
Luxurious Volume, Sheer Blonde) I truly loved.
