Vintage style cosmetics!

Once again my daily expedition through the World Wide Web led me to an amazing discovery!

Today I found vinatge style cosmetics sold on a DaWanda shop (for those who may know the Etsy-site, DaWanda is the same in Germany). Those are mainly soaps, lipbalms, bath oils and bodybutter, so nothing I'd essentially need... But the design is so very cute that it's really hard to resist!

Here is the shop 

and these are some of my favourites:

cute lipbalm and lip scrub

Discovery of the day #2 or how I keep wasting my time instead of learning

This is one of my new obsessions/favourite period series!

Bomb Girls is a six-part Canadian series about women at work in a munitions factory during World War II... and it's really addictive! ;)


I especially love the gorgeous costumes they're wearing! This really makes me want to dress up in 40ies-style as well! hehe

Now to my new discovery:
Today I discovered this very entertaining side-scroll website with lots of background informations about the period and series!! 
I cannot stop spending my time on there instead of leraning for exams...! :S

Click here to start the Bomb Girls side-scrolling adventure! :)

Discovery of the day #1

My dearest friend Emily found a new Scottish folk singer!!

I love this song so much and really can't wait to discover more Emily Smith songs!

♥♥♥

Add note: 

After having made background researches on the song history, my friend discovered that it actually has a rather dark background... It dates back to the 1600s and tells the story of an elf that asks the girl to perform impossible tasks, and if she can't he'll get her. So she asks him to perform certain impossibly tasks for her first, in order to evade rape! :S 

Though this one has a rather dark story, I love this kind of background information! My freind is absolutely awsome for making this researches! ♥ AND for teaching me Scottish vocabulary through folk songs! :) 

I'll make Scottish become my 6th foreign language one day! hehe
