Last week in photos: 22-28 May 2017

Photo of the day: 13.2.2017 (day 44)

Last week was also box camera week, which I was able to participate in thanks to my friend Dan K, who has gifted me an Agfa Clack a while ago.
So I loaded that with a trusted roll of Ilford Delta 100 and went about taking photos.
Which are currently with HEMA's film lab, so that's why Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday are missing.
Admittedly, I also shot with my Agfa Paramat a lot last week, even though that's not a box camera. So yeah, check back later for analog :)

Day 144: Wednesday, May 24

It was Loa cat's 3rd birthday.
On which Loa did the exact same things as usual because the concept of birthday means nothing to him. He probably felt he got wet food and a new toy simply because he's a good cat haha :).

Dress: H&M (it has an all over key print)

Day 42/100 days of make-up in 2017 - Husband picks my make-up challenge

Day 42/100 days of make-up in 2017.
Bert had decided he wanted to do the "husband picks my make-up challenge". So he poured over everything in my box of make-up (which isn't that big so his choice was limited), complained about how I had so many neutral and brown eye shadows and lipsticks (well he also complained I had so many purple lipsticks) and eventually settled on this.
Under normal circumstances, I would have worn this look all day (in fact, all my other looks from 100 days of make-up were shot after having been on my face for several hours, often for most of a day) were it not for the fall-outy horror that is that NYX eye shadow.
I swear, the longer I have that brights palette the more it grates on my nerves.
I'm sure the only reason these ultimate shadows palettes are so popular is because they are cheap and the colours are pretty enough and a ton of people on insta do their make-up just to take a photo (nothing wrong with that, but it doesn't present a correct image of products I feel). But it takes FOREVER to blend them properly AND they don't properly stay (and yes, I use a base, by NYX so you'd think that it would at least be intercompatible within the brand). I didn't want to have aqua shadow all over my face in a matter of hours.

I honestly don't care that my giant floppy hat is ridiculous and doesn't match most of my outfits. When it's boiling hot and super bright, the hat comes out! :)
Oversized hat > headaches and sore eyes :)

    1. When talking about vintage Agfa, the Clack definitely is beautiful with it's faux crocodile skin print etc. BUT I personally find the Click much easier to work with. It's a point and shoot and it loads super easily :)

      That Dior outfit was to die for! Seriously if there was an affordable brown version of that cape, I would so buy it! Not that I wear capes mind, so I should probably invest in something nice I would wear instead haha :D

    2. Haha most vintage cameras I love just to look at, although when they're in working condition and are easy to load that's def a double bonus!

      Oh I would love that outfit just as is, all pink, it looks very 50s almost which I love, and it's Dior! Perfect all around, now they just need to make it easily available and in petite sizes or the skirt will be full length on me XD
