Autumn is around the corner and the shades of wine and plum grow more tempting towards its arrival. Autumn always makes me long for dark purple shades. And oh how I love purple! It draws me to it in nature, flowers and fruit, in lipsticks and eye shadows and in hair, although I don't dye mine anymore.
If I would, I'd probably dye it purple.
My sister kindly took these outfit pics in the garden while we were visiting our childhood home.
Although I love all the apple trees and berry bushes my favourite thing in the garden must be this odd purple bush! Especially when the evening sun pierces its leaves or morning dew glistens on them like frost. If I ever get that garden of my dreams, it will most likely glow with the purple hues of these plants.
Nuo meikit on aivan ihanat! Pakko testata itekkin :)
ReplyDeleteKiitoksia! Kannattaa kokeilla. :)
DeleteUm, ajattelin vain kertoa, että olet tosi kaunis ja siitä lähtien kun löysin blogisi olen ajatellut että Eragon kirjasarjan Arya haltija näyttää sinulta. Tai sinä näytät Aryalta. En tiedä. Ok. Kiitos kun oot olemassa, elämä tuntuu vähän enemmän fantasia maailmalta. ❤
ReplyDeleteVoi apua miten ihana kommentti, kiitos hurjan paljon! <3
DeleteI love your makeup in this, those lashes are amazing <3
ReplyDeleteThank you! ^^
DeleteIf you don't mind me asking, what camera lens do you use? I'm completely in love with your blog and the photography on here! So gorgeous! :)
DeleteI love the blendinung of your eyeshadow and the intensity. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteSo damn pretty.
ReplyDeleteThank you <3
DeleteThe colours of the plant are amazing, and the glitter makes it look like it belongs in a fairytale.
ReplyDeleteAnd you look beautiful as always, very witchy! ♥
Aww, witchy is a great compliment, thank you! ^^ I added contrast in the photos so the colors pop up a little bit more in these pics than in real life. It was weird to see that glittery dew on the leaves in the morning, it looked like frost although the day was sizzling hot. Magical!
DeleteKasvi on joko hurmehappomarja tai japaninhappomarjan punertavalehtinen muunnos ;)
ReplyDeleteUi, kiitos paljon tiedosta! Ulkonäkönsä lisäksi myös kuulostaa mahtavalta. ^^
DeleteMillä luomiväreillä meikki on tehty? Näyttäisi aivan täydellisen sävyiseltä!<3
ReplyDeleteKulmaluulla on Sugarpillin valkoista Takoa ja musta on saman puljun Bulletproof, tuo violetinpunainen sävy puolestaan on Grimasin 681-sävy. Muistaakseni blendasin joukkoon vielä hitusen Sugarpillin Poison Plumia, mutta sävyt tulee kuitenkin enimmäkseen tuosta Grimasin napista, se sävy on mielettömän ihana. :)
DeleteOih ♥ tykkään myös violetista ja lilasta ♥
ReplyDeleteTosin omaan ihon sävyyn sopivat paremmin lämpöisemmät sävyt enemmän.
Kauniita kuvia! ^__^
Huulipunattomuus tai haalea huulipuna tekee ihanaa vaihtelua ja luo vähän hempeämpää fiilistä..hih ♥
~ Frillycakes ♥ ~
Voi kiitos! ^^ Nykyisin tulee oltua aika paljon ilman huulipunaa, lähes koko kesä tullut panostettua silmiin. Varmaan kesäherkkujen takia, huulipuna on vaan jatkuvan napostelun tiellä. ;)
DeleteHih..tulis syötyä vaan huulipunaa :P
DeleteItellä jääny huulipunien käyttö, kun haluan pusutella mun pikkuneitiä ja ei oo kiva jos äitin huulipunat on pitkin poskia ja vaatteita! x)
Aww pikkuneiti! ^.^ Mun herraskaisella on sama reaktio, ei joskus meinaa tulla lähelle jos on huulipunaa kun pelkää sen takertuvan kaikkialle, hehe.
DeleteThe garden looks amazing and the photos of you are beautiful! I love that purple bush - do you know what it's called? :o)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think it's called Berberis, at least that's what another commentor said and Google proved her right. :) I don't know what variation this bush is.
DeleteVioletti on hyvä väri, miun ikisuosikki <3 Jumalaisen kaunis mekko sinulla!
ReplyDeleteKiitoksia! ^^ Violetti on niin ihana väri, mun ikisuosikki myös. Sen sävyissä on jotain mystistä!
DeleteOot nätti! Mikä sun oikea hiusväri on?
ReplyDeleteKiitoksia! Mun oikea hiusväri on näissäkin kuvissa, toki se vähän muuttuu aina kuvan sävytysten ja kontrastien mukaan mutta sellanen mustaan taittuva tummanruskea missä näkyy valossa punaista sävyä. :D Eli vähän outo väri siis. En ole yli vuoteen sävyttänyt tukkaa millään tavalla ja ennenkin käytin vaan kevytsävytteitä, joten blogikuvissa näkyy runsaasti tuota omaa väriä.
DeleteI love the pics.
ReplyDeleteYou are so pretty and your tattoos are great.
I love the combonation of purple and black :)
Thanks so much! ^^
DeleteSuch beautiful plants they seem to have glitter.
ReplyDeleteI love how your make up matches all the purple hues. ♥
Gorgeous!
Oh thank you! <3 The morning dew does look like glitter, it was beautiful.
DeleteBeautiful pictures! I'm curious about the plant's name. It's such a beauty, just like you ;) Gorgeous as always! <3
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! <3 The plant's genus is called Berberis, but I'm not sure about this exact plant's variation.
DeleteI love the pictures. You look stunning :) The bush is a Berberis or am I wrong? There are so many beautiful dark purple flowers to grow. I am dreaming of a garden too. For now I will have to settle with my balcony. My love and I almost bought a house with a big garden this spring but it all went up in smoke when the bank didn`t lend us the full amount :`(
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! I googled Berberis and you're right, it seems to be the same plant!
DeleteI'm so sorry to hear that your plans went to ruin, I'm sure it feels awful. I truly hope you will get that house with a garden soon! :) I also dream of a big garden and long to plant flowers and trees in the ground, but there's not even a balcony in this apartment, let alone a garden. Boo!
Henkeäsalpaavan kaunista.
ReplyDeleteHui, kiitoksia. <3
DeleteI love your blog and wow you are beautiful. Your eye makeup here is stunning :)
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much! ^^
DeleteWOW! You look so beautiful, my Dear!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! <3
DeleteEverything about you is perfect. :3 But wait, is this your natural hair colour? :O No way!
ReplyDeleteYou're making me blush hon, but no one's perfect. Still, thank you! <3
DeleteIt is my natural colour, I wouldn't lie about it. It just appears darker in these photos because of the contrast and the colours, and the sun wasn't shining. You can see it more naturally in the previous posts. :)
It almost looks as if there were sugar on those plants, do you know what they are called? I'm happy to see you posting again.
ReplyDeleteThe genus appears to be Berberis. You're right, the morning dew does look like sugar and glitter, it looked wonderful. And thank you, I'm happy to be back! ^^
DeleteMahtavia kuvia :)
ReplyDeleteKiitos :)
DeleteYou must have chosen your eyeshadow to match the Berberis bushes! The little pierce of garden from your child hood home that we see on the picture looks so adorable, with the hanging petunia's and pink geraniums. It looks so romantic!
ReplyDeleteActually I picked the Berberis as a background because my new eyeshadow was the same shade. :D Anyway, it felt like a good combo and I've wanted to take pictures of that bush for a long time, but always forgot to do it.
DeleteMaybe I should take more pics about the garden, there's also a looot of lilies and roses and other flowers in there!
O yes! Please do take more pictures of that cute garden! I am curious about it. :) <3 flowers
DeleteWhat a stunning look, I'm a huge fan of purple. It's probably my favorite eyeshadow shade. The apartment I'll be moving into later this month doesn't have a balcony - I'll have to stick to indoor plants. I'd love to have my own garden someday. I enjoy all the shades of autumn, but I think my favorite would have to be that beautiful coppery red that many leaves turn. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a really pretty colour too, like all the shades of autumn. I can't wait for the heart of autumn to arrive, it's by far my favourite season. <3
DeleteTosi ihanat meikit :) silmäsi näyttää entistäkin kauniimmilta
ReplyDeleteVoi kiitos! Huomasin itsekin että vihreiden silmien sävy vahvistuu voimakkaasti noista sävyistä. :)
DeleteThese are absolutely gorgeous photos! What a stunning color that flora has; the dew looks just like shimmers of glitter-- spectacular =)
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! :)
DeleteI can't wait atumn, its so peacefull for me ! The photos are stunning!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I can't wait for autumn either, I love every bit of it.
DeleteIf you dare, take a leaf and taste it, it tastes sour a bit acid. When I was a kid I used to pick those leaves and chew.
ReplyDeleteAren't they poisonous? Not that it would matter much, to my mom's horror I used to chew on poisonous plants when I was a kid. No wonder I turned out like this. ;)
DeleteBeautiful pictures. Here it's now summer and autumn is so far away unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteI love it to.
Can I ask, what products do you use for your eyebrows?
ReplyDeleteSure! Just dark eyeshadow applied with a brush. :)
