December favourites 2015

I know I’m late with writing this post. I had planned this post a week ago, however I couldn’t make myself do much somehow. Perhaps it was the icy weather that caused icefree, people were ice skating on the roads, having fun. It felt as if everybody around me wasn’t working either.

But perhaps that wasn’t the only reason. After December has a rhythm, a schedule that didn’t quite suit me, I tried to find one that does. However, I’m still finding out what my perfect schedule or weekly rhythm is, especially since I want to approach this year differently, having other priorities. I decided to go for a different approach, because every start of the year my mind makes huge planes, creates massive unrealistic dreams that I can’t really make happen. I set the bar so high every year and most of the times this lead to me being disappointed at the end of the year or freaked out when there was a setback, because that wasn’t the plan. That’s why this year I will discover day by day, deal with things when they are here. And not worry about it in advance, thinking about all the possible things that might go wrong before it even happened.
I’v learned in the past year that sometimes it’s better to take small steps and actually move forward than take a big step but ending worse than I started. Only small goals over a small period of time.
You can’t plan too far ahead and it has no point of worry about things that might or might not happen in the future, because there is no way to know what lies ahead. Sometimes unexpected things happen.

I’m curious about what 2016 has to bring, but I guess I have to wait and see. And enjoy the small thing along the way.

Red lipstick: For a while it was stored in a bag without being used, but lately I’ve been grabbing the lipstick and loving it. Either to lightly dap it and using it like a lip stain or just full on red.


Socks, Primark: They're the best socks I have in my draws. They're cozy, comfortable, they don’t slip down or suffocate my legs. Perfect for the cold icy weather we had last week.

Fluffy slippers, H&M: I have been wearing them nonstop when I’m inside.

Pyjama pants, H&M: I know last month they have been in my favourites too, but I couldn’t help myself loving them just as much as last time.
