OOTD: Sporty

Image
My this week's first outfit will be very different from the ones you've seen so far. Last weekend I attended 43th run around lake Ülemiste and so my sporty outfit is of course from that race. Finished! Even though my hip started to hurt quite bad after 9 kilometers, I still managed to finish this 14km run with time 1:34:48, which is faster than my time from 2013 :P What I was wearing ElleSport top from MandMdirect.com USA Pro leggings from Sportsdirect.com Nike running shoes from Nike outlet store ( similar here ) Puma cap from Sportsdirect.com ( similar here ) and of course my Fitbit HR activity wristband (buy here ) I’m linking up with these lovely ladies –> see list here LINK UP Rules: Link up your favorite outfit post of the week.

#bbcchallenge: Mermaid nails

Image
Happy Monday! My Instagram followers yesterday saw a photo of three nail polishes and I also mentioned that I'm working on my next nail art post. Well today you can see with what I came up with. The theme for my manicure was mermaids and so here are my mermaid nails for the The Beauty Blog Coalition Mermaid Challenge :) I started my mermaid themed nails with Révérence de Bastien base coat that I received in my Birchbox UK November box . Next I added a layer of gorgeous turqoise blue Illamasqua nail polish in Noble . Next I used a piece of sponge to create blue ombre nails. I applied some Noble and some Avon Gel Finish polish in Royal Vendetta on a sponge and then dabbed my nails with the sponge until I was happy with the result. Next I added a layer of Butter London Stardust to add a little bit of glitter to my nails. Next I free-handed fish scales using nail art brush from Born Pretty Store and Butter London Victoriana. On my ring finger I added golden seashell nail art s...

Glittery purple ombre nails & tutorial

Image
Happy Saturday y'all! Today I want to show my glittery purple ombre nails. I created this manicure actually in July, but so far I haven't had a chance to show it to you. This manicure is again very simple. I started my glittery purple ombre manicure with OPI Nail Envy base coat and then I added two coats of Models Own Fruit Pastels nails polish in Grape Juice . Next I used a piece of sponge to achieve the ombre look. For that I applied some Models Own Grape Juice and W.I.C by Herome Kontiki Beach on the sponge and then dabbed my nails with the sponge until I was happy with the result. Next I applied a layer of Nails Inc Trafalgar Crescent to my nails and I finished my manicure with Nails Inc 45 second Top Coat with Kensington Caviar.

FOTD: Ball makeup

Image
Back in July I attended a ball ( see my ball outfit here ) and I just realised that I actually never showed you my ball makeup :D So  here it is - close up of my makeup look for the ball. I kept my ball makeup simple and did a brown smoky eye - something I wear pretty often.

OOTD: White SheIn mini dress

Image
Seems that this week is white week here on Beauty by Miss L,  because the outfit I'm showing you today is again WHITE :P, but quite different from the one I showed you on Monday. This white mini dress is from SheIn . When I was choosing items from them a couple of weeks ago then there was something about this dress that just caught my eye. At first it just looks like a simple white mini dress, but thanks to split sleeves and bow detail at the back it looks much more interesting. This dress looked pretty on SheIn website, but as you know you can never be sure with these cheap clothes, if they really live up to the expectations. For my pleasant surprise the dress looks exactly like on SheIn site. The material is okay for the price. It would be nice if the sleeves were bit longer, but that's not a big problem. What I'm wearing white SheIn mini dress white flats from ItalDesign white crossbody/clutch bag from Aliexpress Billie & Blossom statemen...

Essence How To Make Bright Eyes Make-Up Box swatches & review

Image
On Sunday we went to Selver to do some quick grocery shopping and as always I also checked out what's new (or discounted :D ) in their cosmetics section. This time I stumbled on Essence make-up boxes. There was 4 different ones available: 2 for eyes, one for brows and one for face and home with me came two eye shadow palettes. And today I'm going to show you Essence How To Make Bright Eyes Make-Up Box swatches & review. Pühapäeval käisime kiirelt meie kohalikus Selveris paari asja ostmas ning nagu alati kiikasin ka kosmeetika riiulitele. Seekord jäid mulle seal silma Essence paletid: 2 lauvärvi paletti, ja 1 palett kulmudele ja 1 näole.  Tõenäoliselt on need seal meie Selveris pikemat aega juba olnud müügil, ent kuna nad olid paigutatud väga kummaliselt kõigist teistest Essence toodetest eemale, siis ei olnud ma neid varem lihtsalt märganud. Seekord maandus siis minu ostukorvis 2 Essence lauvärvi paletti ja neist esimest How To Make Bright Eyes  teile täna näitangi. Ho...

Butter London Stardust

Image
A couple of months ago I went to TK Maxx and stumbled on some Butter London and OPI polishes. One of the polishes that caught my attention was Butter London Stardust that looked absolutely stunning in the bottle and so today I have its swatches to show you :) You can see on my Butter London Stardust swatches Stardust applied over a coat of OPI Nail Envy. I applied 1 coat of Stardust on my ring finger, 2 coats of polish to my middle finger and 3 coats of polish to my index finger and pinky. Mõned kuud tagasi sattusin TK Maxx'i ning sattusin seal Butter Londoni ja OPI küünelakkidele. Üks lakkidest, mis poeriiulil mu tähelepanu püüdis oli Butter Londoni küünelakk Stardust, mis nägi pudelis välja ÜLIilus. Allpool  oleval pildil näete Butter London lakki Stardust minu küüntel. Aluslakina kasutasin OPI Nail Envy't. Minu nimeta sõrmel (ehk siis sõrmuse sõrmel) näete ühte kihti Stardusti, keskmisel sõrmel kahte kihti ning nimetissõrmel ja väikesel sõrmel kolme kihti. Butter Lon...

OOTD + LINK UP: White

Image
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had an amazing weekend! This weekend we went to Pärnu. Pärnu is the summer capital of Estonia. During the summer period Pärnu is very popular because of its beautiful sunny beaches and so there are many holidaymakers from Estonia, Finland, Russia, Latvia and other countries. [caption id="attachment_11089" align="aligncenter" width="650"] Pärnu beach is crowded at the weekends, but if you are familiar with the place then you know the spots that are probably less crowded and so this time we ended up in the less crowded part of the beach :)[/caption] The outfit I'm showing you isn't from the beach, but its the outfit I wore on my way to the beach. When I'm heading to the beach then I always keep my outfits as simple as possible and so this look is no exception. What I wore my hat on the first collage pic is from House white skirt Takko ( similar here , here , here white tube top Takko ( simi...

Comfy Blackspade nightwear for chilly autumn/winter nights

Image
It's August and soon it will be autumn. The weather and nights get chilly and so instead of tiny nightwear it is time to start wearing something longer and warmer. Maybe you remember my post of David Bikini set from Patricia Eve Ltd, back in June. With that bikini set I also received white Blackspade nightwear that is just perfect for those chilly nights. This Blackspade white pyjama set has very simple, classic design and it is something that suits for different body types and ages. It feels nice and soft and I just can't wait to start wearing it more often once the nights get colder. My pyjama set is in size M and it fits really well. The trousers have just the right length and sleeves are long!!! :D Blackspade is a well know brand from Turkey, that is owned by parent company Narkonteks. From Blackspade collection you can find underwear, thermal products, home- and beachwear for women, men, teens, kids and babies. What I like about Blackspade products is that their sty...

Autumn outfit idea

Image
I really should be browsing curtains, sofas and this kind of things at the moment, but last night I ended up browsing some online stores that and so here's one outfit idea for this autum. This look started with this red Lauren Ralph Lauren sleeveless sweater dress. It just looks so pretty and flowy and looks like a perfect piece for transition into autumn. I have love-hate relationship with fringe trend, but these Vince Camuto Harlin Leather Fringe Booties look like a perfect addition to my boots collection. Jackets, jackets, jackets ..... Calvin Klein black asymmetrical wool coat looks cool and will keep me warm on those chilly autumn days. So far almost all my handbags are in solid color and I think this Cynthia Rowley Hayden Colorblocked Tote would be a great accessory to add a touch of color to my darker winter outfits. No outfit is complete without jewellery and there is just something in these Juliet & Company bracelet and necklace that caught my eye.

Prada the Italian Fashion House Brand

  Italy is well known for its contributions to luxury fashion, as several of the most popular luxury brands were born in that country, including Prada. The Prada brand is loved in its native country, as well as attracting fans in countries throughout the world. If your budget won’t allow you to splurge on luxury purses and accessories, you can either forego the designs you want or consider a replica. Shopping on a Budget Some women go deep into credit card debt to purchase the latest trendy bag from their favorite designers. Others are simply not willing, or able, to spend that much on a bag, purse, or accessories. Many purchase Prada replica handbags from HighReplicas.com to satisfy their desire for the trendy designs they see in the fashion magazines or carried by movie stars. Origin of the Fashion House The Prada brand was founded in Milan in 1913 by Mario and Martino Prada. Originally, they opened a leather goods shop and sold leather goods, handbags, and imported Englis...

The Body Shop Pomegranate products

Image
About 1.5 months ago I was contacted by The Body Shop and they offered me to try Pomegranate Softening Cream Cleanser and Firming & Refreshing Eye Roll-On. I have tried some The Body Shop products before and so an opportunity to try their new Pomegranate products sounded like a good idea.

Regardless of whether you’re in a relationship or not, every woman should own lingerie. It’s versatile, and can be tailored to your shape, mood, personality and lifestyle, all of which bring out your inner sexiness. But the most important thing to remember about lingerie is to wear what’s comfortable and not to wear those delicates as a way to impress others. Your comfort is crucial in building confidence when it comes to your body. Like any other types clothing, there are certain styles that suit different body types. For those buying intimate wear for the first time or looking to find more items to accentuate their figure, here are a few pointers.
