Blogger To Blogger – Liebster Blog Award No.5

You know that theory when bad things start to happen that they keep on coming in bulk? I am certain that is true because that always happens to me but the great news are that the same, obviously, happens with good things as well! The beautiful Marijana, editor-in-chief of the very retro and cool blog named facelookmarijana (or just facelook) has nominated me for yet another Liebster Blog Award and this one came as No.5! That is a big deal for me, harvesting five great and honest awards really makes me feel good and I always reflect on how the time has passed so fast while blogging. Marijana is a great gal, she has gorgeous eyes and eyelashes and I must use this opportunity to urge her to make lots and lots of eye make-up tutorials because those would be a joy to watch and read. I just love the woman, I mean, she thanked everyone with a Robert Downey Jr. gif. What‘s not to love?

Znate onu teoriju da kada se lose stvari pocnu desavati, vise ih za redom uslijedi? Sasvim sam sigurna da je to istina jer se to meni stalno desava ali dobra vijest je i da isti princip ide i za dobre stvari! Prekrasna Marijana, odgovorna urednica jednog retro i kul bloga pod nazivom facelookmarijana (ili samo facelook) me nominovala za jos jednu Liebster blogonagradu a ova dolazi pod rednim brojem 5! Meni je ovo golema stvar, sakupivsi pet divnih i iskrenih nagrada me uvijek usreci te se nesvjesno svaki put zamislim i shvatim kako je vrijeme ispunjeno bloganjem jako brzo proslo. Marijana je super djevojka prelijepih ociju i trepuski pa cu iskoristiti priliku da apelujem da pocne objavljivati sto vise nekih make-up look-ova za oci posto bi  to bilo odlicno za gledati i citati. Ja volim tu zenu, mislim, zahvalila se svima sa gifom Robert Downey Jr.-a. Kako je ne voljeti?

Random things about me (these are inspired by some of Marijana‘s answers):

1) I will soon turn 26 in July

2) My daaarling man and I will soon mark 9 years of togetherness (is that even a word?) and be one foot closer to that important decade of us being us

3) My Zodiac sign makes me a Cancerian and my ascendant is Taurus and I love every single Pisces on this planet because, guess who is my closest buddy ever? I al harping about him all this time 🙂

4) I love TV and I sometimes feel bad when lots of people talk about that type of media in negative light because TV has served me with many things and I have learned lots of useful things from watching TV. You just need to have a good “filter” and to know how to separate good and useful from bas and useless

5) You want to hear about my first beauty experience ever? Apparently, that was the moment when I was caught watching my own reflection in the mirror while slapping my right ear with blue Nivea cream until it was full.

6) I will never be a early bird. I will get up early if I have to but I will never love it

7) I had a phase of deep astrology research, Zodiac, houses, cusps, planets and all that stuff. I even had a natal chart done. Than I got scared as a baby and ran away from it all. Now I am only keeping up strictly as an amateur

8) I was scared of dark when I was a kid

9) I am incapable of late night partying becaue when the clock strikes 11PM I start yawning and become a zombie

10) I tend to seek interpretation of dreams

11) I am too inquisitive sometimes and that gets me into trouble

Nasumicne stvari o meni (neke su inspirisane Marijaninim odgovorima):

1) Uskoro cu napuniti 26 godinica u julu

2) Dragi i ja cemo uskoro napuniri 9 godina zajedno pa ulazimo i u tu jubilarnu deceniju (stari se)

3) U horoskopu sam Racica a u podznaku Bikonja a volim sve Ribe na ovoj planeti jer pogodite ko je meni blizak od Riba? O kome drugom stalno “tupim”? 🙂

4) Volim gledati TV i nekada mi je krivo sto se o tom mediju tako lose govori jer ja sam ga iskoristila za toliko dobrih i korisnih stvari i toliko sam dobrih stvari naucila preko TV-a. Samo treba imati dobar filter i znati sta usvojiti a sta ne

5) Znate koje je moje prvo beauty iskustvo? Trenutak kada sam uocena kako gledam svoj odraz u ogledalu i filujem svoje desno uho Nivea kremom haha

6) Nikada necu voljeti rano ustajanje. Ako moram onda moram ali ne volim 

7) Jedno sam vrijeme pocela opasno da istrazujem astrologiju, Zodijak, astroloske kuce, planete i sve te stvari. Cak mi je izradjena i natalna karta. Onda sam se prepala bujice informacija i pobjegla glavom bez obzira. Sada to pratim samo amaterski

8) Kada sam bila mala imala sam golem strah od mraka

9) Ne umijem ostati do kasno vani, vec oko 23h sata pocinjem zijevati dok se svi “zagrijavaju” a kasnije sam zombi

10) Cesto istrazujem znacenje snova 

11) Previse preispitujem neke stvari sto me nerijetko uvali u nevolju 

And here are my answers to all the things Marijana wanted me to reveal:

1) What do you think about brow plucking?

– Usually a painful and unpleasant part of my beauty routine but quite necessary for the most of the time. It really can do wonders to any face if done properly. Never overpluck. Never.

2) What is the last book that you have read?

– The Madness of Kings by Vivian Green

3) Enlist three things you would bring to a deserted island with no civilisation in sight?

– Lots of toilet paper (lol), as much sweets as I can carry and my hubby because you need company if you don‘t find your own Friday on that island 🙂

4) What do you love to eat?

– I love to eat. I eat everything, absolutely everything.

5) What type of clothes do you prefer and what kind of make-up style do you prefer?

– I love casual clothes. Jeans, sloppy T-shirts and flat shoes (ballet flats and comfy loafers). Leather jackets must be one of my favourite things, I love trench coats, nice airy sweaters, great boots and great bags. Make-up is something I love to play with but I never ever look “cheap” or overdone. The philosophy of “don‘t let the dress wear you, you must wear the dress” applies to make-up as well. A natural, radiant look is my go-to but I love to spice it up with unexpected details e.g. a vivid eyeliner, bold lip, exciting nail polish.

6) Where are you from?

– Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

7) Which piece of make-up makes you feel most excited?

– Lately, I am very excited when I think or come near blushes, highlighters, nail polishes.

8) What is the most expensive and cheapest cosmetic product that you have bought/ received?

– Most expensive are a Chanel lipstick and Clarins eye palette. Both are really gorgeous. Cheapest must be  a Flormar nail polish. excellent as well. 

9) Favourite movie?

– I have watched a humongous amount of movies during my life. I am a real movie-junkie and I don‘t have one favourite movie. I love everything from horror movies (I recommend Musallat), to comedy (Naked Gun), sobby romantic movies (Love in the Afternoon), dramas (The Woman in the Fifth)…. But the recent movie I watched and loved was Flight with Denzel Washington. I love me some Denzel. Hubba, hubba.

10) Are you into any kind of sports, if yes, which one?

– Sports and me? Now that is something I would love to see 🙂 I am ferquently described as a “sporty” kind of girl but amusingly, I am not into sports. Unless if you count over-eating and sleeping as a sport, than I would be very good at that “couch potato” kind of sports 🙂

11) What is the color of your hair?

– My hair has gone through some interesting phases and I do refer to my natural hair color. I used to have a very deep and dark brown, almost black with dark blue/ indigo tones. Then my friends and I thought of a “brilliant” idea to lighten our hair with lemon juice. You can imagine that it went horribly wrong. Then my hair was a chestnut brown hue and stayed that way for numerous years until I, again, got a genious idea to change the color of my hair. I went from light brown to a honey shade which I only had for one month but it was that perfect honey hue. I had a reddish phase which turned to be too orange-y and then I went really dark brown. Too dark because it washed me out and then I stopped playing with it. So for more than three years my hair is my natural color which is a nice dark brown. Phew.

I ovo su moji odgovori na sve sto je Marijana zeljela da otkrijem:

1) Šta misliš o čupanju obrva?

– Nerijetko bolan i neprijatan dio moje beauty rutine ali ipak toliko neophodan. Stvarno moze uciniti cuda cjelokupnom izgledu lica ako se cini na pravi nacin. Nikada se ne bi smjelo pretjerati sa tim. Bas nikada.

2) Koja je poslednja knjiga koju si pročitala?

– Ludilo kraljeva od Vivian Green

3) Nabroj tri stvari koje bi ponela sa sobom da moraš na pusto ostrvo bez civilizacije?

– Velike kolicine toalet papira (lol), sto vise slatkisa mogu ponijeti i muza-puza jer ce mi trebati drustvo utoliko vise ako ne budem mogla pronaci vlastitog Petka na tom ostrvu 🙂

4) Šta najviše voliš da jedeš?

– Volim da jedem a jedem sve, bas sve

5) Kakav stil kod odeće, a kakav kod kozmetike preferiraš?

– Volim casual, opusteni stil. Farmerice, isfucane majice i ravnu obucu (baletanke i udobne mokasinke). Kozne jakne su medju stvarima koje najvise volim, baloneri/ mantili, fini lagani dzemperci, odlicne cizme i odlicne torbe. Sa sminkom se volim malo poigrati ali nikada sebi necu dopustiti da izgledam “jeftino” ili previse/ umjetno nasminkano. Ona filozofija “nemoj dopustiti da tebe nosi haljina, ti je moras nositi” je nesto sto primjenjujem i na sminku. Prirodan, osvijetljen izgled je moja opcija “na sigurno” ali volim ga zaciniti neocekivanim detaljom poput olovke za oci u zivoj boji, istaci usne nekim socnim karminom ili se posluziti upecatljivim lakom za nokte

6) Odakle si?

– Sarajevo, Bosna i Hercegovina

7) Koji kozmetički proizvod te najviše veseli?

– U zadnje vrijeme me najvise obraduje cak i kada se priblizim rumenilima, hajlajterima i lakovima za nokte

8) Koji je najskuplji kozmetički proizvod a koji najjeftiniji koji si kupila/dobila?

– Najskuplji su Chanel ruz za usne i Clarins paleta sjena za oci. Oba poklona su izvrsna. Najjeftiniji je Flormar lak za nokte koji je takodjer odlican.

9) Omiljeni film?

– Ja sam tokom svog zivota pregledala jedan strasno veliki broj filmova. Pravi sam filmofil i nemam samo jedan omiljeni film. Volim sve, od horor filmova (preporucujem Musallat), do komedija (Goli pistolj), romanticnih filmova uz koje se place (Ljubav u poslije podne), drama (Zena iz petog okruga)….Ali posljednji dobar film koji sam gledala je let sa Denzelom Washingtonom. Nikada dosta Denzela. Njam.

10) Baviš li se sportom, ako da, kojim?

– Ja i sport? E, to bi bio prizor 🙂 Cesto su me ljudi znali opisati kao sportski tip djevojke ali iznenadjujuce, uopste me sport ne zanima niti se bavim bilo kojim. Jedino ako bi ubrajali prejedanje ili izlezavanje u neku vrstu sporta, onda bi tu bila vrhunski sportista 🙂

11) Koju boju kose imaš?

– Moja kosa je prosla kroz par interesantnih faza. Kada sam bas bila dijete (osnovna skola) kosa mi je bila iznimno tamno smedje boje, skoro pa crna sa tamno-plavim odsjajem. Eh, onda smo prijateljice i ja imale “odlicnu” ideju da posvijetlimo kosu limunovim sokom. Mozete samo zamisliti kako je to grozno zavrsilo. Onda mi je kosa dugo godina bila kestenjasto smedja dok ponovo nisam dobila genijalnu ideju da je promijenim. Isla sam od svjetlije smedje do boje meda koju sam ustvari imala samo jedan mjesec ali to je bila ona prava, pravcata, toliko zeljena boja meda. Bila je tu i crvenkasta faza dok nije postala previse narandzasta a onda sam je ofarbala u bas tamno smedju. Ta tamna je bila previse tamna i ten mi je uz nju bas “isprano” izgledao i onda sam se prestala farbati pa od tada imam prirodnu boju kose vec vise od tri godine. Sada je bas lijepa, odgovarajuca tamno smedja. I to je to.

I have an idea this time regarding nominations and what I would like my nominees to do. I will nominee blogs I like for a relatively long time and I would like them to chose just one blog that they find to have a humongous potential. I want them to give a boost to those that promise a lot but just need a bit of blogger love:

Ovaj put imam ideju vezano za blogove koje cu nominovati i vezano za to sto bih zeljela da oni ucine. Nominovati cu blogove koje vec neko odredjeno vrijeme volim i bilo bi super ako bi svaka od njih odabrala jedan blog za koji smatraju da strasno puno obecava. Zeljela bih da date potrebnu podrsku onima za koje mislite da imaju potencijala a samo im je potrebno malo blogerske ljubavi. Naravno da to nije nesto sto se “mora” nego samo sugestija, ako zelite, slobodno odradite sve po ps-u:
