Hi ladies,

Just a quick message to show you my very very very beautiful plant: an orchid!

I am in love with plants and flowers, and since now I have my own place (with a terrace) I am filling it with them! I got this orchid at Ikea (yes, at Ikea!) and it's the only plants I have inside the house right now. I hope it will survive to my newbie gardener skills though!

Anneri, you are so beautiful!!! I love your avatar! It's always so nice to have faces with names!! I know you will make the right decision regarding your future - hang tough!

Almus, your orchid is just lovely!! Your terrace sounds like a wonderful little haven!

 

[Bonitinha]

Almus -- love your orchid! That color is beautiful. Sounds like you are having fun decorating your place!

Almus.. you have exquisite taste in plants.. Orchids and Gardenias are my faves too.

you should see the orchids where I am, they are just hanging in bunches and absolutely beautiful!

enjoy!

Thanks for all the compliments, ladies! *blushes*

My bf took the pic about three weeks ago at a wedding we were invited to. I caught the bridal bouquet that night... (does that mean the same in other parts of the world?)
Speaking of weddings -
Bonitinha, I so admired the hairdo you did for your little girls! I'm at another wedding in two weeks - you can't come over, can you? I'm such a klutz when it comes to do my own hair - fortunately I'm one of the witnesses and will wear a hat!

Almus, beautiful orchid! I always buy them, and then they die on me, poor things!

 

[Bonitinha]

^^Anneri -- Yes, if you caught the boquet, that means your next! You look so happy in that pic!

I am not great at doing my own hair, but I can do it on my girls (they have thicker long hair and mine is baby fine). Really, you just pull your hair into a ponytail (in back or to the side). The last time you are looping the holder around the ponytail, you don't pull the hair all the way through (just the ends are tucked into the holder). So it will look like you have a loop of hair. You then just grab sections and randomly bobby pin on top, to the sides, and bottom of ponytail so you get a messy bun. I did a "headband braid" in front before I pulled it into a pony. But it took me about an hour to do all 3 of my girls hair -- I like your hat idea

Anneri - *goodluck*

. Btw love your picture too, you look so beautiful and radiant .

Almus - that's such a pretty orchid! I'm no good in raising plants and I admire people who do

. I remember on my wedding reception, we put lots of white orchids as decoration. It was so pretty! The best part is, the orchids were still alive (they were not cut, but still on the pots) so my mom still have several of them. She's so great in tending plants!

Btw, I got my NARS lipgloss in Wonder and MUFE eyeliner #7 and #14 (forgot the numbers, but it was the deep purple and black with sparkles). I looooove NARS Wonder on me. Such a pretty orange lipgloss

Anneri, all the best for your interview! Munich a great city. Just do what your heart/gut feeling tells you. At first it's just an internship and Ffm is not so far away :winkiss: Astrid, the mascara is a nice deal, especially since I would say that the makeup remover is a good one. Hi Almus, how is your new appartment going?

 

[Shypo]

Hi Bis!!!

I miss having a balcony for a garden. Your orchid is lovely!

Anneri- Love your profile pic! It's always nice to see the faces behind the names.

I went on a shopping binge at NARS today... Picked up a couple of shadow duos and Strawberry Fields gloss, which I was really surprised to find.

[Anneri]

Bis, Astrid - thanks for the wellwishes for Monday!!!

Katred - I can't imagine living without a balcony or a garden, so I can imagine you missing it! I love everything to do with plants - even weeding! It's so relaxing!

This, btw, is my vanity

, so to speak, in the summertime (because I don't have natural lighting in my bathroom) :

[bis]

Anneri, that is a really great vanity! And I love your tomatoes there, I am envious

 

[Bonitinha]

I agree Anneri -- that is a great set up for your vanity. Very cool!

 

[Almus]

Hi bis!! It's going great, thanks! I am still excited and I've been living in it for two months now!

Anneri, that's a great vanity area!! My bathroom does have some natural life but when I do my make up in the morning is still very early. I always take a little mirror with me to the terrace when my make up is done so I can check everything is where it is supposed to be

Cheryl, is that piggie in your avatar? Pooh's friend? =D

 

[cutemiauw]

Anneri, love your vanity space! I could see you're totally great with plants .
