Life lately│Birthday, vegan baking and so on

Good evening, everyone! Today is my 22nd birthday, it's weird, I don't really feel like 22 yet but who am I to complain, right? Today was a little too rushed for my liking but my Mom came back home from her knee surgery in hospital, so I was really glad. In the afternoon, I met up with my friends Barbara and John and we headed to a cupcake-business-related meeting with our logo/website creator, a crazy-talented guy! Afterwards, I managed to buy birthday presents (long live Lush!) for my friends Jules and Misha whom we're having a bday party with tomorrow. Also I popped at Marks&Spencer to buy some Halloween candy, can't wait for Halloween as I love it to death.

Some of my presents and a manicure I created with the Sephora kit, it was cool but I couldn't have stopped picking at the studs, what a little kid I am.

The first time I'd ever baked vegan stuff. It was pretty tricky, especially the frosting but the result was quite tasty. I still need to perfect it, though.

Photos from our show last Saturday. The first photo's our whole band, Emergency (Paul, me, John) and the second is me with Alex, my dear friend and ex-band mate from my former band.

Finally, I'd like to do a little self-promo! If you like cupcakes, muffins and stuff like that, feel free to check out our Instagram page or like Monster Cupcakes on facebook here. Sorry to be shameless like that except I'm not sorry.

I hope everyone's doing great, I'm now waiting for my boyfriend to arrive and we're gonna watch a movie together. Quite nice birthday!

They give free Lindt bears in our local grocery store when you shop there, I've had so many lately.

 

This is such a food post. I love donuts and haven't had any in so long. This was a banana one. Plus I love fruit and this was my pre-gig snack - dragonfruit, grapes and pomegranate (my favourite fruit ever).

One of the reasons I love going to hardcore shows is the atmosphere; like one big family. We went to see our friends Empty Hall of Fame and a band called Eat Me Fresh I hadn't seen before. I was really tired after running errands and our own band practising that day but I had a great time anyway. Also I managed to lose my ear plugs. I keep losing them like crazy.

I think the next post will be lipstick-themed because I bought total of 6 lip products last few weeks. Talk about obsession. Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend, I'm now enjoying my fruit salad and waiting for my bandmates to arrive, we're playing a gig in a couple hours. Tomorrow I'm planning on baking vegan cupcakes, wish me luck with that!

Life lately

As my birthday slowly approaches, I can’t help myself but feel a little sad. I’m like that, every year, don’t know why, though. Days are getting shorter and darker and Uni starts in less than a month.

So I treated myself a bunch of cute stuff. The pink cableknit sweater and the rose scarf are both from H&M, peach & almond body lotion is from Marks&Spencer, double earrings from Six and I found my little Cottonflower Sephora perfume I completely forgot I’d had (so it counts as new as well, haha). I also bought powder pink slippers at F&F for the colder months to arrive.

I couldn’t have resisted a box of Chai tea bags at M&S, either. So now I’m listening to The Grates whom I rediscovered today, painting my nails pale pink and going to have some Chai teda afterwards while watching Gigolos. Coziness for the win!

Hello everyone!
I've been trying to start a proper blog multiple times but never really succeeded. I've been taking so many photos and have gone through many changes lately, though, and the idea of really keeping a blog time just struck me as a fun thing to do.

So, who am I?
My name is Tess, I'm 21 (not for very long, though) and I live in Prague. I love listening to old school hardcore punk bands, watching British and American TV shows, cooking yummy vegetarian meals, baking sweet cupcakes, being surrounded with floral-print things, being with animals, shopping for nice clothes and cruelty-free cosmetics, singing with my band, reading classic horror books and playing computer games.

I hope you will find this blog a nice place. See you soon!

Tess.
