METALLIC FLASH TATTOOS

The newest trend in fashion world is one I'm dying over! I have always been a huge fan of body art like tattoos and henna, but have never taken the plunge myself because I keep on changing my mind of what I want. As long as I'm not 100% certain, I'm staying away from the tattoo shop (yes, I'm boring like that)...

This new fashion hype offers the perfect solution for my fear of commitment though!

So what am I talking about? The metallic flash tattoos are basically a mix of body art with jewellery, and are the new and improved henna! The tattoos add shimmer and sparkle to any outfit and will be the most on trend accessory of the moment.The tattoos stay on for 4 to 6 days depending on how well you take care of them. You will need to avoid soap, lotions and water from the tattoos to keep them intact. And the prices range from €15-€25/ $20-$30 depending of brand and size. 

Here are some examples I really like.

Arrows

Necklace and hand designs

Body chain 

Wing and bracelets

Also celebrities seem to dig this trend. Queen B herself was seen rocking the metallic look some weeks ago while vacationing in France. Paired with a bronzed skin and bikini, the tattoos can give you an instant princess feel.

And Beyonce didn't stop in the front, as she put them all over her back as well!

I wish I would've found out about this trend earlier, then I would've blinged it up a bit more! But now that summer is over I will probably opt for a visible hand design or neck tat to start with. 

Here are some links where you can purchase your own tats:

TENERIFE TRIP

Hi everyone! I'm back from a little internet break. Sometimes it's nice to diconnect from the online world, no social media or e-mails can be such a relief. I guess it can be hard for our generation to remember life before the internet, that's why it's nice to make you live it once in a while. 

It can be quite the reminder you're living your own life and own moments, that there's no one online who can feel what you're feeling or think what you're thinking in those moments. 

But now I'm back to reality and ready to share some of my vacation moments.   

I took a trip of nine days to Tenerife with my boyfriend, also my sister and her boyfriend were there some days. We needed a relaxing vacay very bad, as my boyfriend and I have been working hard for the last couple of months and there are some big projects ahead of us. We mainly focused on spending time together and wanted to include rest and action in our trip!

I've been to Tenerife a couple of times which makes it easier to find your way and the nice restaurants, but it can also make it a bit boring. That's why we tried to add some new elements to this trip, like our trip to Masca. Which is basically a hike of three hours in gorgeous surroundings! Sometimes the track gets a little tricky with steep edges and loose rocks but it was so much fun and rewarding when we reached the ocean. We had to take a boat to return to the nearest by village Los Gigantes. Which included a very nice surprise; doplhins. So nice to see these beautiful animals free in nature!  

Here are some pics...

Dophins!

Deserved a nice glass of wine after an exhausting day!

Delicious salad with tuna and mozzarella

And I guess the end of this post kind of symbolises the end of summer for me! I get pretty sad at every ending of summer, but I'll try to make the best of the cold this year. Afterall, every season has it charms (I'll keep telling myself that through rainy and snowy days..)
