MONDAY SALE MADNESS

Monday crazy sales and I've got it all bundled up for you guys here including all discount codes to save some more!

NASTYGAL

NastyGal is on a mission: extra 40% off sale! I too had to make use of this opportunity as I have been dying to shop at Nastygal for a while, but I've never been so sure about import taxes and duties and shipping costs. They're not as bad as I thought and are calculated at checkout. Another stunner at checkout? The extra whopping 40% off right here or shop some of my favs below!

THE LBD EDIT


SHOES! SHOES! SHOES!


WHITE DRESSES


ACCESSORIES


MORE FROM NASTYGAL + 40% SALE



NEW LOOK

So I  bought something on New Look last night because I stumbled across the most perfect leather accordion skirt I've been looking for for weeks and I have to admit my shopping wasn't the greatest. It took me forever to check out because one of the items had sold out but the site wouldn't update and let me know which item to remove or remove itself. I finally got through, I just hope they've fixed their technical difficulties probably due to high maintenance during flash sales and sale season. Anyway stumbled upon coats for 50% off.. since winter is upon us, get coated! Ends 31st October.

TOPSHOP

No code needed. Start shopping :D

Now my favorite thing to shop besides shoes are designer pieces. As of last year, I pick one item that is timeless, that's been on my list for a while and has a great deal.

FORZIERI

Forzieri has been ever so generous with their new season, mid season and end of season sales and next to Net-a-Porter this is where I shop for designer as of late because you can always get some pretty good deals when the time is right. I'm really liking Forzieri so far.

The Outnet is one of the best designer online stores out there I know because it's a discount store. Unfortunately their extra 30% off ended two nights ago midnight. I could however snag 2 pieces I had stumbled across thanks to my insomnia keeping me awake. You should take a look at their site though because they sell designer at high discounts. Promise to share something like this earlier!

SUEDE AND LACED

Suede skirt Streetstyle  lisforlois
NEED
I cannot deal with Berlin's weather right now which is why I'm escaping to the last few of my summer looks that are still unpublished. This is one of the looks I wore to Bread&Butter. I mixed suede and tan with black lace up details and finished it of with gold jewelry. I've been loving my jewelry from Stella&Dot which I've been wearing to every outfit in different combinations, which is why it's all the more annoying that my favorite pieces are left to dust on his shelf right on top of his bed knowing I'll never see it again.. *eye roll*
Good thing material things can be replaced.. another emotional bruise from meeting him is so not worth it. If he were to man up, he'd send them to me instead of using them as a cheap excuse to force me or worse blackmail me into seeing him again.

Anyway, can we have summer back please?! Who even enjoys freezing winter..?

OSHUN BEAUTY EVENT

Lois Opoku oshun BEAUTY Event lisforlois Oshun Beauty event lisforlois A couple of week ago I attended the coolest beauty event I've ever been to! Not because it was specially done or anything - trust me in my 5 years of blogging I have been to a whole lotta events, and some have been the craziest things I've ever experienced - but it was because of the energy and the cause. It was special in a different sense.
Dedicated to celebrating the beauty of dark skin the team of OShun called all black girls to come out and celebrate with a special make up session. Yes this event was entirely dedicated to females of colour, but living and struggling in western society, sometimes we gotta do our own parties too!
Remember another woman's beauty is not the absence of your own.
Light skin girls, Dark Skin girls,
White girls, Black girls,
YOU are ALL B E AU T I F U L.

LITTLE GUCCI SOMETHING..

Gucci Soho Keychain lisforlois
Yet another Gucci purchase! And I haven't even shown you the first. But as I said in my wish list post I wanted to make myself a little gift and I got it: the Gucci SoHo key holder.
I was lucky enough to get the last one of Breuninger. How gorgeous is this little Gucci SoHo keychain? The leather is so soft and it feels very luxe. Not only can I fit in my keys, but it's actually big enough to fit a little credit card, some coins and mini sized lipsticks (like these ones from YSL I often carry with me but get lost in my handbag) without being to big or bulgy.
The zip really is a bonus! I have been thinking about getting a new key holder for a while now, because my old one from H&M has gotten super rusty over the years. I wanted to go for something

ALL I WANT FOR MY BIRTHDAY IS..



Can't believe another year has passed. Time is at such a speed right now, I feel like life is rushing me by. I'm turning 23 tomorrow so I decided to post a little wish list here and the blog. Oh and make sure to stop by tomorrow for a little giveaway!
The Gucci SoHo keychain will be a gift to myself, where as the DionysusPrincetown slippers and boots will be on my list of things I'm saving for this year and the Gucci belt probably my next purchase. I hate backpacks but I'm obsessed with this cute little bag from Zara, as it can be worn like my dream bag from MCM - the bebe boo.  The MAC wants are my beauty wishes that I stumbled across whilst out shopping with my friend Grace. The purple matte liquid lipstick is on my wish list since last week when I saw my friend Julie rocking it (you probably saw that on Snapchat!). As for chokers? I'm obsessed and I want all three packs I spotted at Zara plus very much the Acne choker copy that seems to be sold out everywhere already.. oh well

So yeah these are a list of material things I could come up with to wish for my birthday. But I'm not really the person to wish for things.. It doesn't really matter what it is you gift me and I mean it when I say "I don't mind at all.", after being asked what it is I want. Fact is I will most probably even forget what it is you gave me for my birthday (Sorry!). But what I don't forget is the feeling I had in that very moment realizing you thought of me, you took your time to get me something and that smile and excitement on your face being happy to gift me something..
As for non-material wishes.. My biggest wish is that I find my smile again I lost in the last couple of months. I wish to I find my way, place and purpose in this world. But above all I wish that all lost and broken souls find someone or something to mend their heart. I wish for peace and a little less pain in this world and to never have to see someone I care about be so self-destructive and break anything and anyone good they've got left in the process.

DIESEL LOVERDOSE TATTOO

Diesel loverdose Tattoo eau de Parfum lisforlois
This post is dedicated to my favorite scent of all times Diesel Loverdose Tattoo. It's my signature scent. I know for a fact that it smells particularly different on my skin. It wouldn't smell the same on you or on friend the way it smells on me. I don't know what it is but the fusion with my skin and probably own odor see for a perfect match.
It's very sexy and smells very pleasant without being too much. It's the right kind of subtle without being lost, the right kind of without being heavy. It's sensual.
I haven't been wearing it lately since I've run out of it, but it kept me for good three years. I still remember the event Nisi took me to during Fashion Week 2013 where the scent was presented for the first time and since then we have not parted ways.
