Randomness

 Seeing all my cute Hello Kitty stuff just makes me feel like I HAVE to take pictures of it ^_^
 Our apartment at night seen from the outside, I just think it looked really cozy, like I kinda fell sad that I wasn't in there :p
 I eat weird stuff, like avocado with some root beets as a side dish ^_^ I was just so happy to find Swedish, Felix root beets at a store here. You who have been reading my blog for a while knows that I'm completely nuts about these!
 We bought a pint Bounty ice cream one night, why don't we have this in Sweden? It's delicious! I love coconut ^_^
 Cauliflower, chicken, peppers and sweet chili sauce. That chili sauce totally sucked though, plus it looks like ketchup :(
 I'm putting all my faith in these two bad boys to get me good and skinny, no exercise needed, promise!
Can you believe it? I can't believe it!

Coord + Chinese Food

Sunday the 10th was our first day at work (we work Sunday-Thursday down here).


 This was what I wore the first day at work (why do I necessarily have to have NO waist?! >.<). Since I used very dull colours for my outfit, I tried to make it more fun with some colorful accessories. 

Rundown
Top: H&M
Skirt: H&M Kids
Bag: Topshop
Jewelry: Topshop, Jet Set, BikBok, Sanrio
Sandals: DinSko
 When we got home from work to get me a jacket, I also added a colourful scarf as a belt, and I really like how it turned out, it's fun to see that adding such a small detail really can lift an outfit! I'm going to have to use these kind of tricks (like using scarfs as belts ;)) when I'm here, as my wardrobe is very much incomplete.
After work we went to a really fancy Chinese restaurants, the interior were all white and very modern, I'm sorry that I didn't take any pictures, because it was a really beautiful place. I don't want to disturb people while they're eating, I guess. The food was delicious as well, probably the best Chinese food I've ever had, I felt like it was because the quality of the food was just better than most places. 
What I really liked was that this restaurant was not expensive at all, I think we payed like 30€ for both our meals!

Random pics + Dinner out

My healthy breakfast, caramel dessert and M&Ms

 Some nails I did the first week, I used the yellow graffiti nail polish from Isadora, but I used it on a light green base so the effect didn't show of so well. I like the black lines though, it's fun when you make every nail unique!
 I took this picture right before we sat down and had our first home cooked meal, I really like this "portal" that leads out to the pool from our outdoor space, the flowers are really pretty!
 For our first meal we had the chicken with creamy mushroom sauce that I wrote about earlier, yum!
 This is what I love about this country, pink toilet paper and panda tops!



 CAMWHOOOORE!
Hihi ^_^ This is how I looked when me and Seb went out to a restaurant one night, I really liked my hair, it's hard to find ways to do good hair without a curler. 
 I liked my outfit as well, that dress is so beautiful! I got it from my mum for graduation, I think it's pretty rare to have a maxi dress as graduation dress, isn't it?

Rundown
Necklace: Accessorize
Dress: Topshop
Bag: Topshop
Sandals: DinSko

 I had fish with a creamy sauce that had both mushrooms and shrimps in it, yummy! It was so funny when we went to this restaurant, because we wanted to sit outside and the waitresses thought we were insane! They were coming out to our table all the time, asking if we didn't want to come inside, they thought it was really cold I guess. We were a like "Naah, we're Swedish, this is a really nice summer night for us!" ^_^


 We didn't have any wine with dinner, but we drank Irish coffees for dessert, I haven't had a good Irish coffee since I went to this restaurant last year!
 Seb's charming me with his sexy eyes ;)

Party Night


 We went up to old town during the day to open up Cypriotic bank accounts, I really liked this view!


 We were going out later that night and I was wearing my pretty ice cream-dress en light yellow ballerina flats
 When we arrived at bar street we met up with some friends in a club called "Tropical", they had ordered in a very large beer keg in the shape of boobies ^___^
I wanted to get a picture of my drink, and of course Christoffer from my work had to lean in and ruin it ^__^
 My baby sings Tenacious D and makes the entire bar happy!
  I took a picture with the bartender at the karaoke bar we usually go to, called "Boogie's", she remembered Seb from last year which I think was pretty cool!
 I sang karaoke, Journey - Don't Stop Believing, it was really awesome because I got really cheered on and the entire bar sang along :)
And Seb sang again as well, but I can't remember the song.

Our First Day

 Happy Happy Boyfriend! 
 I was also happy ^_^
 My beloved Starbucks ♥
 OMG I was so pale, haha! We went down to the harbor to eat at KFC and we were waiting for our work buddies.
 Looking good, eh? ^_~
 Yummy yummy <3 But it's so hard to eat, I'm gonna start order home delivery, or bring my own cutleries. I tried out their mashed potatoes and gravy for the first time, and both of them were just awful! I prefer my homemade mashes potatoes with barbecue sauce ;)
 While we waited for our colleagues earlier we went to The Body Shop and I bought a new hairbrush and a satsuma flavoured body butter
And at night we went to Fat Mama's for dinner, I had some kind of sea bass which was just lovely, but what's the deal with the double carbs? Both rice and jacket potato, silly

Air Port Shopping

 I splurged out on Arland airport, I had been running out on make-up right before the trip in order to have "a fresh start" ^_^
 Make-Up Remover from Chanel, blush from Chanel, eyebrow pencil from Smashbox, under-eye light up thingy from Smashbox, eyeliner from Dior and perfume from Dior. The perfume I actually got from Seb when he got home from Cyprus last year, but I just ran out of my old bottle, so I could start using this one with the nice, old school spray-on thingy. 
The under-eye light up product from Smashbox is actually not a concealer, as it is for the under-eyes only, but it works wonders! I think this is the closest we will ever get to real-life photoshopping ;)

The blusher from Chanel is my favourite! I love how the mix looks, it has different shades of pink with some gold in it. It's really nice because you can choose how strong you want it to come off. This shade is called "Tweed Pink", and I can really recommend it, it's the best blusher I've ever used!
