Since March is coming I decided to make a list of my favourites from the winter of 2016/2017. There are some movies, beauty products and some clothes. I’m gonna add the links of these items at the end of this post.

So let‘s start with the clothes. The first is from H&M and I bought in Stockholm where I spent the Christmas time with my godmother who I really love. The top which I bought is not so surprisingly burgundy. It has a very playful neckline which is very deep too, but since it fits me well, I don’t mind. I can wear it for parties with jeans or with a simple skirt.

The second one is this coat which you could probably see on Instagram. This is from H&M, too and it was a huge bargain. It ends at the half of my calves and I really love how it looks on me, especially since I lost some weight.

The third one is this bralette which is from H&M too. What a surprise. I own seven of it and in various colors: black, white, nude and this burgundy one which is the most awesome one. These bralettes are so comfortable and so soft…

The second group is for cosmetics. The first one is a hand cream which I got from my friend and it’s from Inecto. I’ve been using this since October and it still lasts. It has this awesome coconut smell, it dries so fast and it hydrates so perfectly. And the Inecto products are vegan friendly.

The second one is a hand cream, too. I got this for Christmas and it’s from Essence’s The Little XMas Factory. I don’t know what to call what its smell, but it’s quite good. Of course, it dries fast, too, but it was much less than the other from Inecto. I don’t know if it’s vegan or not.

The third one is from Essence’s The Little XMas Factory, too. It’s an eyeshadow palette which has the most beautiful colors for my eyes. It has green, gold, silver, brown and a beautiful highlighting color.

The fourth one is a contouring/highlighting palette from Essence’s The Little XMas Factory, which is well pigmented and is perfect for my skin tone. And it has this really cute bow on it.

The next group stands for jewelleries. To be specific, for two chokers. The first one I got from a friend for my birthday and I wore it when I changed my hairstyle. These two reasons makes it mean so much to me. It has those beautiful white beads and some strasses. And if I’m right, it isfrom Claire’s.

The second one is from Claire’s too. I really love the small circle on the front and the small beads on both sides.

The next group is for songs which mean so much to me. The first song is a Nirvana cover from Think up Anger for Smells Like Teen Spirit. To be honest the original song is so emotional for me and the cover makes these emotions much stronger.

The next song is another cover for The Animals’ House of the Rising Sun from Lauren O’Connell. I think this cover is somewhat stronger in an emotional way than the original one and it connects with my favourite series American Horror Story.

The third one is from Christina Auguilera and the title is Fighter. In January my grandfather died and I really loved him and his death caused me too much pain and this song helped me to get better.

The fourth song is from Twenty One Pilots and it’s Stressed Out. I like because since I’m eighteen, I’m starting to feel that I’m growing up and it’s hard. To be honest.

The fifth and last one is from Red Hot Chilli Peppers and it’s Dani California. This song stands for me. I mean exactly for me. I feel like I am Dani from the song.

The next group is for books and movies. Well, to be specific, it contains only one book and its title is Percy Jackson written by Rick Riordan. Since I’m a huge fan of the Greek mythology, this book meant the whole world to me in the last month.

The next one is a movie, it’s surprisingly Odyssey starring Armand Assante. The day after the night my grandfather died, I watched this to cheer up myself. Well, of course it wasn’t enough, but made me slightly happier.

The second movie is from Disney and it’s Hercules. This was the movie which I watched laughing but with tears in my eyes, because I totally could understand everyone in this.

There is a Facebook page I think I should mention. It’s called No one saves you. The funny thing is that they actually saved me.

And the last group is for things from Stockholm. The first thing is this strange thing which has various flavors every year: Julmust.

The second thing I want to mention is the showcase of the supermarket NK. It changes in every year’s Christmas and in 2016 it was so beautiful. Just look at these pictures.
