winter wonderland ❄

Já!
Fátt er betra en að vakna við dásamlega snjókomu.
Snjórinn er kominn og ég vona að hann verði áfram. Ekki láta rigninguna skemma þennan dýrindis snjó.
Ég fór út í garð og tók nokkrar myndir. Ó hvað maður fer í mikið jólaskap við þessa dúnmjúku fönn.
Jæja, hér eru myndirnar sem ég tók.







Einungis 38 dagar í jólin! Fannst þetta eiga við hehe.

kveðja,
ein sem er að drepast úr spenningi

asos kápa

Ég pantaði mér fyrir u.þ.b. viku kápu á Asos. Mér finnst þægilegt að versla hjá Asos því það sendir frítt heim! Kápan kom send í pósti á föstudaginn var og er ég alsæl með hana. Hún er ekki eins og þykk og ég vonaðist til en ég verð bara í hlýrri peysu undir ;)

Kápan er dökkblá "skater" kápa. Mér finnst hún mjög falleg og ég hlakka til að nota hana í vetur.

bubble ponytail

Fyrirgefiði mér! Ég hef verið rosalega upptekin. Ég veit, lélegasta afsökunin í bókinni. Eins og þið sjáið þá er ég að skrifa á íslensku. Ég held að það sé bara betra þar sem það eru ekki margir útlendingar að lesa bloggið mitt.

Í dag ætla ég að sýna ykkur mjög fljóta en flotta hárgreiðslu sem ég er oft að sjá og dást að.
Þetta er svokallað kúlutagl eða "bubble ponytail" og tekur ekki nema 1-2 mínútur í mesta lagi.


#1 skref:


Þegar þú ert búin að greiða allar flækjur úr hárinu settu þá hárið í venjulegt tagl.

#2 skref:


Taktu litla gúmmíteygju og myndaðu litla kúlu nokkrum sentímetrum fyrir neðan taglið.

#3 skref:


Haltu áfram að gera nokkrar kúlur í viðbót. Að því loknu geturu tosað hárið til þar til þú ert ánægð með útkomuna.


Voila!

Mér finnst þetta mjög kúl hárgreiðsla! Kommentið endilega einhverjar hugmyndir sem ég get gert.
Ég ætla að reyna að vera aðeins virkari hérna en eins og ég sagði hér fyrir ofan þá hefur verið rosalega mikið að gera upp á síðkastið í sambandi við skólann og tónlistina.

Hey my foreign readers! If you are trying to read these weird words and don't understand anything at all, that's because this is in Icelandic. Yes you heard me. (or read me). I think I'm going to change to Icelandic instead of writing in English if nobody from another country except Iceland is reading my blog. Please comment down below if you want me to still write in English!

How To Style: Maxi Skirts

Hey pretty people!


This is just going to be a short post about how to style maxi skirts!
I created this set on Polyvore, I am still just a beginner on this site.
Anyway, this is basically my creation of how I would style maxi skirts. I was going to do a How to Style Maxi Skirts in 3 ways and take pictures of my own outfits but that didn't go as planned.


How To Style: Maxi Skirts


Topshop petite top
topshop.com


Slit skirt
brandymelvilleusa.com


Leather footwear
$135 - windsorsmith.com.au


Half frame sunglasses
shopzerouv.com


Rimmel lipstick
target.com



I have the same maxi skirt from Brandy Melville except mine is just plain black. I found these adorable leather shoes that fit perfectly for this outfit. And of course you gotta have a crop top!
I got bold and added a rich red lipstick along with these retro circle sunglasses.
I would describe this as a retro-chic kind of look and I am in love with it!

Tell me guys what YOU think in the comment section below!
And also! I have created a email address so you can now email me if there is anything on your mind, some questions or something!
Follow me on Polyvore to see more of these sets!

First Week of School Outfits

Hey pretty people!

PLEASE NOTE: I HAVE CHANGED THE NAME FROM TRENDY-BASTARD TO THETRENDYBASTARD!

I know I'm a little late in this "back to school" posts since almost everybody has already started school.
Anyway, today I am going to show you what I'll be wearing my first week of school.
I started school today but I'm just gonna begin with Monday then Tuesday, etc.


Monday: Cute n' Classy




Shirt (the collar): Forever 21
Oversized T-shirt: Topshop
Leggings: Topshop
Shoes: Converse

This outfit is perfect for those days (everyday) when you are lazy but still wanna look cute.
The pink peter pan collar adds spiciness and makes the whole look pop.


Tuesday: Sweet but Edgy



Crop Top: Brandy Melville
Denim Shorts: Forever 21
Shoes: Converse

I just love the caption on this top 'Stressed Depressed But Well Dressed' from Brandy Melville.
I recently got my first ever clothes from Brandy and I got to say I'm very impressed! The material is super soft and so comfy to wear.


Wednesday: Casual and Girly




 Crop Top: H&M
High-Waisted Jeans: Topshop
Cardigan: Forever 21
Flower Headband: DIY
Shoes: Toms

High-waisted jeans are definitely my favorite fitted jeans now. They look so good with a crop top!
The flower headband gives the outfit a touch of girliness.


Thursday: Laidback



Flannel: Vintage
Tank Top: Forever 21
Pants: Cotton On
Shoes: H&M

I have a heavy schedule on Thursdays so I just wanna be very comfortable and laid back.
I think this outfit is very cozy with this BIG flannel that my dad owns and it is very very old!


Friday: Boho Chic



Dress: H&M
Sweater: H&M
Necklace: Christmas gift
Shoes: Toms (forgot to show)

I love this look! I just put a sweater over a dress to make the dress look like a skirt.
 The sweater gives this look bit of a bohemian vibe.


My backpack is from Target and my watch is from DKNY if you were wondering :)
I hope you liked this post and gave you some inspirations for your outfits to school!
I am thinking of making a hair tutorial next. Like if you want a hair tutorial!

Wall Decal

Hey pretty people!




While back when I was in Florida I bought a wall decal or wall stickers as some of you may call it.
The wall decal is from Target and it basically has a bunch of caring and beautiful words.



To be honest I had no idea how it would turn up to be like so I was very surprised!
This is the same exact one that I purchased.


The biggest and the main word is family. This wall decal help me to remind myself of smiling, laughing, etc.
My favorite ones are laughter, hope and unique but I can relate to most of the words.



Please comment down below some ideas for back to school posts!
Also go ahead and like this from Facebook!
Maybe there's also a style steal coming up....

Summer Trend: Overalls

Hey pretty people!

This summer overalls have been really trendy.
I personally adore them and I think they are so hip and cool.
They bring me back when I was little and I like it!
Overalls are so on my wishlist for summer, although summer is almost over.

Untitled #3




What do you think? Are you into this overall trend?
I was also thinking. I want to do some kind of "back to school" posts.
Please comment down below any ideas :)

Easy DIY Flower Headbands!

Hey pretty people!

Wow, almost two weeks since last time, I missed you!
Last weekend I went to Siglufjörður to play in a music festival with a symphony orchestra which I am a member of.
It was super fun, we played for example the Nutcracker.
While I was there I was planning on blogging but there was simply no time at all!


Yay! DIY! I am going to do flower crown/headbands. These headbands have been very trendy now for the summer!
 I have seen lots and lots of girls wearing these kinds of headbands and I think they are so beautiful.
But here's the thing, I can't seem to find headbands like these!
So I thought it would just be easier to make one myself instead of looking and looking without any success. 


The Flower Crown


What you need


Glue. I think a glue gun works the best for me. 


Elastic band.


Fake flowers. I got mine from Ikea.


Scissors.




Measure the elastic around your head.


Cut off the end.


Take the flowers off the stem.


Cut the extra stem part of the flower (if needed).


Place the flowers where you would like them to be.


Then glue the flowers on the elastic.


Press it for a few seconds or until the glue dries.


When your all done with the flowers go ahead and glue the elastic band together to make a crown.



Now you're done! Super quick, super easy!
You don't need to put flowers all the way around the band. You can just put it 'half the way', so to speak and then you have sort of headband.


The Flower Headband


What you need


For this you need a thin headband like this and also the things shown above.

Sorry about the lighting on the next pictures.


These flowers were a bit tricky because of the plastic thing in the middle.


I took it off so I had two layers of flower buds.




I found out that the best way to do this with these weird flowers was to put one flower bud beneath and the other one over the band.


Then glue one bud on top of the other. If you have flowers that are easier to glue on then you don't need to do this two layer 'procedure'.  Honestly it seems a bit complicated but it is very easy!
Continue to put several flowers along the band (I put five rather large ones).



I really really like this one!


I hope you liked this DIY. I worked really hard on it!
Please comment down below who's your favorite one or if you just have any questions!
Send me pictures on Twitter of your creation :)
