Styling : Spring Ideas for your mood ,clothing , manicure, hair and make up !

Hallo everybody ! :)

Today's article is mostly a photo-presentation of some ideas i liked and tried on me in order to make up my mood after a long and busy winter ! :D 

 There is a variety on issues you can experiment with and express your creativity such as mix and match clothes and accessories , explore new tastes and hobbies , try more colourful make up , have a crazy manicute etc or even a different haircut/haircolour ! Refresh yourself ! You deserve it :D !

So here is a gallery of some changes i made in my life and appearance this Spring that helped me find my lost happy spirit and filled me with energy and possitive thoughts! 

New hobbies !

MARTIAL ART COURSE :

This spring i decided to start taking a martial art course ! It was super effective because after a stressful winter, full of responsibilities and exams all i needed was to express all this stress in an intense way that keeps me also healthy physically !

DIY ( Do It Yourself ) :

Even though i like shopping I got also super interested on expressing my creativity on making new things ! I made my own custom Valkyrie dress for a masquerade party and a preview drawing of how i imagined my Valkyrie face-paint . I also spent some time on custom clothes and jewellery :) ! I had really much fun with all these and i now have some unique pieces in my closet !

TRY A NEW MUSICAL INSTRUMENT :

As a true music lover i couldn't refuse learning how to play another musical instrument so after flute ( since 5 years old ) and keyboards ... i decided to play the guitar :D ! I am really honoured to have such a great teacher that his patience and talent combined with my desire to learn , made the whole process very pleasing and motivating ! Every musical instrument is a long journey and i can't wait to continue !

EXPLORE NEW PLACES :

A really effective way to get rid of the daily stress , is coming closer to nature :) You can change the aweful Mondays by going for a walk or fill your weekends with adventure through exploring a new place around or far away from your house ! You can also combine your walk with a second hobby (ex. photography )  ! If you set a plan for your walks you will have something to expect the whole week and once you let nature be a part of your life you will be amazed with its effects ! For those who have limited free time , parks and beaches are perfect places to relax ! It doesn't matter where you are , alone ,with company , if you are perfectly good at something or not . Just feel free to do whatever makes you happy ! :D

START READING A NEW BOOK :

This month i read a really interesting book , called ' In the name of three demons ' of Dieter Breuers and i got impressed ! I didn't read any book

( except of scientific and college books ) the last years and this book motivated me to read more ! The book is mostly historical and the case is about witches during Middle-Ages , so if you are interested in this issues , this book is totally recommended for you !

APPEARANCE CHANGES !

I am a change maniac so this is definitely my category ! There are also people who don't dare to get extreme changes and prefer something temporary and easy-removed. So even if you don't feel comfortable with more permanent changes such as getting tattoos (my sin!!) , hair-colouring ,hair-cutting etc there are also ways to refresh your look and as a consequence to boost your whole mood and self confidence ! ( At least i feel nice after a small or bigger change :P ) . 

You can try a different hairstyle comparing to the one you usually have , get a '' crazy '' happy manicure , try bolder/lighter make up and create your own unique style based on your own sense of matching so that you will feel comfortable in it ! 

Here are some ideas :) ( If you have low budget or just want your style to have your own signature you can make some DIY custom clothes or accessories ;) )

So here i present some of my personal choises on clothing , make up , hairstyles and further stuff. 

CLOTHING  

( It's preety normal if you don't like some of them , i am crazy :P )
