Pretty ballerinas Ursanina ;)

Do you travel a lot? Are you a teacher? Do you walk a lot at work? Does your feet want and need to breathe?


I do love my feet to feel comfortable and I always struggle to find that good pair of shoes that I can wear all day without complaining how my feet hurt and take them everywhere I go just in case I need to put something cosy on my feet. At the Christmas fair, which I love to explore every year and see new things from local craftsmen, I noticed beautiful, colourful felt slippers and decided to check out the Ursanina webpage (← click the link and start exploring).


What drew my attention were ballerina flats 😍 in wide variety option of colours and a clip on flowers! Which means, you can change it anytime, use it as hair decoration as well, or clip it on cardigan, on purse,... you name it ;)


Ballerinas are made of colorful fabric, with a 100% woolen sole inside which is an outstanding insulator! That means it will give a nice cooling effect in summer days and nice warming feeling in colder days!

If you are worried, how to clean them, it's easy. You can wash them in washing machine, but make sure you use wool programme (cold water) and gentle wool detergent, something like Perwool. I use it for all my woolen clothes, slippers and shoes. Just make sure you don't wear them in rainy days. ;)

I hope you will enjoy them wearing as much as I do 😍 and please feel welcome to comment how you like to wear them, or if you haven't got them yet, just ask, I will gladly help you out and answer.

The hunt for quality and easy to use hairproducts



I get a lot of questions about my hair, that's why I decided to write a blog about products I use. Yes, it's all mine and natural colour. I don't use any hair dyes and I cut them every month around 2cm and once or twice, sometimes 3 times per year around 20cm.

My hair is about 1m long and went through hormone imbalance, pregnancy hair loss, dandruff, stress, unsufficient care because of lack of time and now it needs a lot of love and attention 😉


I tried with all kinds of shampoos and currently I'm extremely satisfied with three of them! First is Naturavit anti-dandruff creamshampoo ( Click here and check it out), which is available in all DM stores across Slovenija or you can order it online. 


Then there's Rausch shampoo ( Check out the link), which is available in all Müller stores in Europe, and L'Angelica (← Check out their home page) Almond and royal yelly shampoo which is available in all Müller stores and also in all DM stores in Europe. If you don't have any Müller shops nearby, you can order from Müller online shop (← Check out their website)! 


When I shampoo and rinse my hair, I love to apply the Christali Argan oil in spray or oil. I personally prefer oil, because hair gets much smoother, they are so much easyer to comb (long hair get soooooo tangled!!!) and that smell and glow just makes me fell happy 😍


Besides the argan oil, I also use coconut, buriti oil on daily basis and apply it on dry hair in the morning when I leave the house in a hurry. It's so much easyer to comb long hair, it will will give you wonderful glow and your hair will smell like summer and coconuts 😉 Oil is available in all DM stores in Europe. By the way, it's labeled vegan. Try it! You won't regret, I promise! And a hint... Basket of all those products I mentioned could also be a really nice gift to someone with longer hair! 


I alreaddy blogged about L'Angelica products and you can read all about it here (click the link).
Do you have any questions? Want to tell me how you use it? Feel free to leave a comment below! 😉

The refreshing scent of Acqua Colonia

I get many compliments on the scent I am wearing, thank you! So I've decided to write a short post about the one I wear in warmer weather and summer days. I often memorize scents I come across on daily basis and whenever I sense it, it brings back vivid memories of places or people I came across in past. Somehow like Marcel Proust describes involuntary memory in his novel »In search of lost time«.

Through years I've also been doing experiments and researches on aromatherapy, trying to find a nonagressive, pleasent scent that would keep me focused on my goals and make me feel relaxed and comfortable. Since I love the taste of lime, which is really refreshing, especially in summer, I decided to test the lime fragarance of Acqua Colonia few years ago and I like it so much, I still use it now! It's gender neutral fragrance, so it's suitable for either man or a woman! 

At first I was in doubt, since many fragarances fade, but this one I assure you, will stay all day. Spray it on clothes and it will last even longer or spray it on curtains if you want that pleasant smell in your house! All the collection of Acqua Colonia (← click the link) was carefully mixed and it does work on your senses!

In summer I like to have refreshing aroma tissues in my purse and Acqua Colonia also offers those in different scents. I chose the lime & nutmeg and pink pepper & grapefruit.

If you are interested in visiting the 4711 House of Fragrances (← click the link) or even create your own cologne, check out the link and visit them in Köln, Germany.


If you have decided to try it out, leave a comment and do let me know what you think about it. I'm almost sure you'll find the one for you in the collection. In Europe, they are available in all Müller stores (check the link for your nearest store), or order it on Amazon or eBay.


Cute pillow cases for your little ones!
