Catrice - Karl Says Très Chic

It started raining today. After the spring days we now have some really rainy days ahead of us (at least that's what my iPhone forecast tells me). Therefore, I felt the need to step back from the bright spring colors and opted for Catrice's 'Karl Says Très Chic' from their Ultimate Nudes collection.

I applied:
1 coat Essie 'all in one base'
2 coats Catrice 'Karl Says Très Chic'
1 coat essence 'better than gel nails top sealer'

The polish was a little sticky but that could be related to his age (I have it for at least two years, probably even longer).

Weekly Review April 21, 2013

What a week that was. I spent a lot of time checking news pages regarding the tragic events in Boston.

TV
A couple of weeks ago, I watched my first "Tatort". It's a crime series in German TV, airing once a week on Sunday evening and it started in 1970. My mother is watching it and so far, I wasn't really interested. I have been watching several old episodes this week and I will now make "Tatort" my new Sunday evening ritual.

Shopping
It was time this week for some serious beauty shopping. I needed new facial products. My skin is not really causing problems but as I am aging, I thought it might be time to invest in some good products. After some beauty blog research and asking my best friend, I decided to go for Clinique and Origins. At Steen & Nordstrøm, I found all the products on my wishlist.

My cleaning routine is now so much more fun. I really enjoy using these high-end products and my skin also seems to be happy about this new routine.

Food
My food highlight this week was today's breakfast. Yesterday, I bought some strawberries and today, I included them into my breakfast. Banana, mango, strawberries, müsli and vanilla jogurt. It was delicious.

Books
I had no time to read in any of the books I am currently reading. The only thing I read was Elle magazine. Okay, that was not really reading, more looking at pictures.

Nails
As usual, my nails wore a variety of colors this week.

Essie - Miss Fancy Pants (and football)

Catrice - I sea you!

Essie - Turquoise & Caicos topped with Essence - glorious aquarius

Instagram
This is how my week looked through Instagram filters.

Bringing a little Switzerland to Oslo: Sechseläuten

Spending the night watching CNN (yes, the coverage was crappy)

This is heaven, right? W.B. Samson

Oslo, sunshine, over 10 degrees: I am wearing ballerinas. Without socks.

This is how my next weeks will be like. Studying at the library and spending an enormous amount of money on coffee.
