This is my third such post, though the first one concentrated only on eBay deals, but I have since almost completely switched to AliExpress simply because they have better prices and I prefer the organisation of the website. You can organise the products by number of orders and they have actual reviews of buyers, some also include pictures, so you have a better idea what you're buying. I have to say I haven't had a massive miss yet and I found some great products, in fact I'm loving it more and more. You can find the other two posts here and here. 

Octopus Flexible Tripod for Smartphones and Small Cameras (under 500 g)

This is so ridiculously cheap I had a hard time believing it's any good, but most reviews said it's very decent and they were right. I got the version with two attachments, one is a smartphone holder and one a go camera adapter, the latter I don't need, but the smartphone holder works well and holds it in place tight. The original attachment is a simple plastic screw with a base that swivels and you lock it in place with grip, which again can hold tight. The legs are very flexible and have rubberised tips, the flexibility is so great I can wrap it around a window door handle, while the ad pictures showed it being wrapped around branches and poles. Pretty clever if you ask me. It holds the smartphone with no problems and is very stable, but with a heavier camera (mine has 357 g) I need to be more careful how I position the legs, otherwise it can tip over. Good buy.

Vintage Cover Orient/Medieval/Fairytale inspired Notebook

So you know how I'm cheap right, but I happen to like pretty things? Well, I really love how PaperBlanks look, I'm just not they type of person to pay 20-30 € for a notebook, so I thought of AliExpress and lo and behold, there was a good looking dupe. Ideally it would be blue, but they only have purple, red, green and yellow amber. It is so good, seriously, it looks so expensive. I love the pattern, it's of course not a relief, though when you touch it has some small dots that make it feel a bit textured. The pages are good quality, made for thick paper and the pattern is better than in PaperBlanks. I bought the first one for 5 €, but it never arrived (it was refunded), so I had to shell out 11 € at the other seller, but it arrived in 10 days from China in Christmas time (impressive) and it was really well packed.

Mini Notebooks

I was in a serious need for stationery and AliExpress has a ton of really cheap notebooks that are also super cute. The Superman, galaxy and bunny notebooks are thin booklets with not many pages, but they are great for slipping into pockets and purses. They have several versions for all, the superheros both from Marvel and DC, I chose Superman myself because it's my favourite, while the night sky and bunny ones were random picks. The memo pad was also chosen at random and was so hoping for a moustache one, but just my luck that I get the one without. But I actually really like the notepad because it's very handy and small. These exist in a lot of patterns, not just men style versions.

Sticky Notes

These turned out even cuter than I thought and the glue is actually better than on cheap sticky notes we have in Tedi here, but like most notes it doesn't hold terribly long. The drop ones are available in four versions, while the other ones exist in Moongs (sheep) and Panda version. The latter are slightly bigger than the drop ones, but equally good, though the glue is less sticky. I ordered more of drop ones.

10 Pcs Colour Gel Pens with Pastels and Patterns 

I wanted these for at least a couple of years and I now feel stupid for not just buying them before because they are so cheap and good. Obviously these aren't Pilot or some other fancy brand, so it's not the most amazing quality, but they are still great. You get 10 different colours, each is stated on the cap, so you know what you're grabbing, though it's a very obvious system - green is green, pink is pink /though one is violet), the one with the red hearts is red and so on. When they are new they need to be held at almost 90° angle otherwise the ink doesn't run smoothly, but the more you use them the more the tip get saturated with ink. These only fail at very fast writing occasionally, but otherwise they are lovely and I use them all the time. These come in different versions including a galaxy print.

Foil Pineapple Printing Washi Tape 

I saw this first on someone's Instagram, but I had no idea it was from AliExpress because frankly it looked way too good. This looks expensive in person and yes, I know it's a roll of sticky tape, but such tapes run for 5 € here in Slovenia which there's no way I'm paying. Like a majority of washis it doesn't hold amazingly well, these are more meant for decoration, but interestingly my washis from eBay and AliExpress are better quality than those I bought in local shops (I mean DM). On the first picture I saw this, the base colour looked navy blue (one of my faves) and I was a bit bummed it's actually almost black in real life, but it still looks so good. 

Big Oval Makeup Brush 

Omg I adore this brush! I've become a big fan of oval brushes and I wanted to share my discovery with my friends, so I ordered a few cheap ones for Christmas, but I ended up keeping one for myself. These are so incredibly soft, but also not too dense, so they feel absolutely amazing to the touch and they blend foundation so fast and so seamlessly - I'm in love. The rose gold handles don't look perfect and I don't suppose they'll stay intact for long, but at least the rubber grip is super handy. I really recommend these, they're only 3 bucks, but man they are so good. The only complaint I heard is that it's hard to reach the inner corners of the eyes well, so some may need something else to blend for that area, but I have no problems like that. 

Small Shoulder Bag with a Chain

I think no one would believe me if I said it cost 11 € (actually no one did when I showed it in person) because this bag looks seriously well-made and actually these are sold for much more, it depends on the seller, so be vary of that because prices go up to 80$. It's a hard bag that's why I bought it and it completely survived its travel from China (you get a balloon inside). Though it's small, it easily fits a phone, actually several phones that can lie on the floor of the bag (it's Samsung S5 on the picture), but bigger wallets won't fit through the opening. I use the bag for storing my mirrorless camera Olympus and it's a perfect fit, You see, Olympus sells a very pretty bag for storing their mirrorless cameras, but I just started laughing when I saw their ridiculous 80 € price tag - like I'm stupid enough to spend that much on a bag. So I bought a similar one online and to protect the camera more, added the foam that comes in Colourpop packages. Works just fine and anyway, it's not like I travel a lot. It's got a bit of that classic new cheap hand bag smell for a day, but nothing terrible. The chain looks great as well, but none of these chains are comfortable. I needed some tries to figure out the opening mechanism (the right knob slips to the right), but it holds great. It also has a good zipper for extra security. I'm 1.6 m and it sits at my hip when worn across the shoulder, on my taller cousin it already looked a bit strange and strange to wear across the shoulders. Really recommend this if you're looking for an expensive looking bag on the budget and it comes in many colours.

Chiffon Off Shoulder Maxi Dress with a Side Slit

I just love Ancient Greek/Rome style dresses and I had this one pinned in many versions, one from Asos for 70 € I think, so once I decided to check if AliExpress has something similar and I found the exact same dress. It's just like in the pictures, only the material isn't quite as flowy. It's one of those that crinkles a lot, but that's what I expected. It's got two layers, a sheer and an opaque one, so it's not at all see through and the colour is spot on too, a nice muted navy. It's not stretchy, but it has a zipper and it also it padded on the top. The description and reviewers said to go two sizes up, but S is a bit loose on my XXS/EU32/UK2-4/US0-2 frame, however, length is perfect for my petite size.  I'd say it's an EU34/XS and fits heights 155-165cm. Apart from the shoddy lining on the bottom, which isn't even that visible on a dark material, it's a beautiful dress that maybe could pass for special occasions if you're not surrounded by snotty people, but the cleavage is very revealing and the material can look very wrinkled. It looks to me like it needs to be washed by hand. I have pictures of me wearing it, but the cleavage is too big for me to post it here.

Violet Sheer Scarf

I realised I have absolutely nothing in this colour and actually it's almost impossible to get in shops at the moment unless you're five and it's not like I love this colour, but why not have some variety in the wardrobe, right? I bought scarfs before on eBay and they tend to be very good, so this is no exception. It's soft, there was no strange scent and it looks well made. The colour is accurate based on the pictures. 

Perfume Bottle Pendant and Necklace

I was concerned this will look terrible because all the picture reviews on AliExpress were bad quality, but it looks cute and it has a vintage feel to it. It's quite heavy and the back has a hollow hearts design, which is like a separate pendant, meaning you get two necklaces in one. I can so see this being sold for 9.99 € in Europe by sellers who love ripping people off.

Gold Bar Dainty Necklace

This is the type of necklace I'd love to have the real deal of, but for now this dollar one will have to suffice. It's completely my style and the type I wear all the time. It's a dainty necklace with a long, tube type of pendant which moves on the chain. The closing mechanism works fine and you get enough for additional length to customise where it falls around your neck. I expect this to turn dark soon, but I can't complain for the price. 

 Have a great day!

This is my current blush of choice that I wear pretty much every day because it's another in my collection of very easy to wear colours, but unlike my other such blushes, this one also has a glow that my currently dry skin needs. I saw this blush on Petra's blog and fell in love with it immediately, even before she posted swatches and I was determined I need it. My predictions that I will love it were correct. 

Texture: It's one of those harder blushes and there is zero of any flaky powderiness when you swirl your brush in it, but the pigmentation is good and it's has a very silky texture - it really is such great quality for a blush on a budget. I've tried a lot more expensive blushes that didn't apply as nicely as this one. It has such a lovely satin glow on the cheeks that isn't too much (don't expect a highlighter glow), it just perks up the skin and doesn't look obviously shimmery. This is what I was expecting from Catrice's illuminating blushes, but none of the shades I have delivered. 

Colour: 050 is exactly my type of shade. It's one of those natural muted pink shades that's in the same colour family as I'm Nut's About you and Romantic Rose by Milani (which are dupes for each other, btw). While it is similar, it's not a dupe for either of the two since Trend it up 050 is pinker, more mauve and it also has a golden sheen. Rose Royce is a lot more warm pink and most bright of the four shades I compared. 

Staying Power: This doesn't last as long as I would hope on the cheeks. I get a few hours like with most blushes and in this respect Catrice's and Milani's blushes are better, but today I applied it maybe three-four hours ago and it's holding strong.

Packaging: This actually has a really good packaging for the price, in fact it feels like something that costs a lot more. It's still plastic, but it just feels well-made and is sturdy. 

Price and availability: These are sold in DMs for 3.49 €.

I'm really happy with it. I adore the colour because it's so easy to wear and works with any makeup plus the glow is nice. My only slight complaint is that the staying power could be better, but in general a majority of blushes don't last well on my cheek, notable exceptions are Catrice's, Milani's and theBalm's blushes. If you're looking for something on a budget in this colour family, this one is lovely. I just grab it in the morning and brings some life to my face without turning me into a porcelain doll, plus it goes with anything.

Have a great day!

BeYu is one of the latest brands to re-enter Slovene market and I got one of their foundations to try. It's one of those medium coverage foundations with a satin finish similar to for example Catrice's Nude Illusion. While I was initially really liking the formula because it reminded me a lot of Milani's Conceal + Perfect, after a lot more testing, which wasn't easy since both shades I have are much too dark for me, I'm not as impressed with the formula as before, but it's still really good. When I got it my skin was normal-combination, while right now it's dry-combination and I feel it looked better before. It doesn't state for which type of skin it is, but it claims to be moisturising (not sure I agree), luminous and long-lasting with an 8 h claim.

Texture: It's one of those thicker foundations that need either a makeup sponger or a dense brush to apply nicely, I like to use an oval brush just because it's so quick. Fingers work too, but it's just easier with a tool, though such application gives you more coverage. It applies beautifully on the skin, looks great over pores from the start, it doesn't look bad over lines and looks very fresh, even though you still have coverage. However, now that my skin is much drier, in time I notice my pores are quite visible (the driest skin right now is around the pores by the nose) and just in general the uneven texture of the skin can be emphasised. It's a type of formula that sets completely, meaning the skin feels dry to the touch and foundation doesn't transfer.

Coverage and finish: this gives about a medium coverage, my freckles are still visible, but it does at least 2/3 of the job of hiding my circles. To be fair it's really difficult for me to say how much exactly it covers because the darkness of the shades also contribute to a level of covering. It has a beautiful satin finish on the skin that doesn't scream I'm wearing a ton of makeup and looks quite fresh without being dewy (in Catrice Nude Illusion review I called the finish luminous matte and this is similar), however, it doesn't hold back oiliness, so I notice some shine on my forehead in a couple of hours, but it's a foundation that I never powder. 

Staying power: When my skin was normal-combination, it wore so beautifully. It lasted the promised 8h hours on me and there was none of the usually weirdness around the pores or patchiness, it just looked so good. It wasn't perfect around the pores, but it looked better than 90% of foundations in my stash (because I need to buy only light shades, most of my foundations are crap). Now that my skin is drier, I get the same type of longevity and it doesn't emphasise patches, but as I said the uneven skin texture is more pronounced.

Shade: I have two shades 15 and 20, both oxidise like crazy almost the second you squeeze them out of the bottle. I can seriously see them changing in front of my eyes. However, applied on the skin I don't notice it oxidising, so that's completely weird (it's probably because the layer is a lot thinner). Shade 15 is yellow toned and it's maybe comparable to NC25, while 20 oxidised even darker and has a cool undertone, so it might be comparable to NW30. Maybeline Fit me in Porcelain (currently my perfect match) is 3-4 shades lighter than 15, Milani's Perfect + Conceal in 01 Creamy Vanilla is very similar in lightness, but incredibly yellow next to these two, Catrice HD Liquid Coverage in 010 is one or two shades lighter, I don't have Nude Illusion anymore to compare.

There is a lighter shade called 10, which I tried in the shop and if it fit me, I'd most likely buy it because I like this foundation, but it didn't look that pale, maybe NC20 or a touch lighter, but it was too yellow, so it's likely it would look off on me as well.

Scent: These are very strongly scented and have a to me pleasant clean sheets-floral scent (you know I like scented things), but if you're sensitive to fragrance, it could be a problem.

Packaging: The bottle is very similar to Catrice's Nude Illusion. It's a matt heavy glass bottle with a pump, but the pump is so - I don't have a better way of saying but - trigger happy. You either get nothing or it basically ejects it and it did land on the floor once to me. I learned to control it and it's much better now.

Price and availability: BeYu is sold in DMs here, but I believe in Germany it's in Douglas shops. It costs 13.99 € in Slovenia.

If you like foundations like Nude Illusion and Milani Conceal + Perfect, but can't find a shade that suits you, this is a good alternative. You get a very similar level of coverage and finish. Through my testing I found that it's more a foundation for normal or combination skin, while on very oily it will need powdering and for dry skin it would need to be a bit more moisturising. The claim of 8h wear is not exaggerated at all, so if you need something that will last you though work day and won't wear all funny or transfer, this is a good choice. If only they have a very light shade for me.

Have a great day!

Not that I'm one who keeps it only on a positive note here, just stroll through my New in and Empties posts and you'll see I'm not so forgiving to products, but I very rarely gather them in one post. I've done Best Buys for 2016, but I was watching some YouTube videos and I felt inspired to do disappointments as well - it's only the best way to start a new year, right? I went through my New ins just from 2016 and counted a record amount of misses just in one year. I don't know if I'm just that hard to impress (my family is probably screaming "Yes, you are" right now) or it was something else . 

I won't write which one I bought and which one was given to me because it doesn't matter, but please read all these disappointments posts critically. You're smart enough to recognise this is just one opinion. When I criticise a product, I emphasise it didn't work for me and most products are not bad, they could still work for a different type of either skin/hair or personal preference. There are over 40 products on the list (I told you, it's crazy), I included a few I got before 2016 because I use/look at them a lot.

BASE AND CHEEK PRODUCTS

MAYBELLINE Fit Me foundation normal/dry skin - This is just so greasy, it never sets on the skin, which in turn means it also doesn't last long and my biggest pet peeve - it makes my smile lines visible from space. I don't like how it looks on the skin, even now when my skin is completely dry (literally feels like sandpaper), but damn it, the colour is beyond perfect for me. | Positive review (video)

RIMMEL Lasting Finish Nude foundation - a.k.a. foundation from hell. I despise it, it makes my skin look horrible because it slips into every pore, emphasises smiles lines and almost always looks patchy on my nose. I actually had comments on how bad it looks on me. I hate it - I still use it on most days because, you know, the shade (us Snow Whites have so little choice), but I hate it. I use it for mixing with darker, better foundations. | Positive review 

ESSENCE get picture ready! brightening concealer - I expected something like Maybelline's the Eraser and what I got was a horrible applicator and a product with little coverage. This should be repackaged and sold as a BB cream/light foundation formula. 

L.O.V. EffectFul Concealer Pen - another product I hoped was similar to Maybelline's, but it has such a light coverage, needs a lot of time to set, the sponge is hard and I notice no brightening effect. I'll of course use it up because the shade is great and it was expensive.

WET'N WILD Cover All Concealer Palette - this is not that bad and the colour correcting bit works, however, the formulation of the three correcting shades is too thick for my taste (highlighter is great though). I don't like these paste-like products that need to be warmed up before use. | Positive review. 

ESSENCE Stay All Day Fixing Powder - looks white on my skin and can wear strange with some foundations. | Positive review. 

BEYU Strobe & Define Palette (not on the picture) - actually not a bad product and I love it has everything you need for contouring, however, both BeYu powder products I've tried are so loose. I prefer more pressed, silkier formulations. | Positive review. 

L'OREAL Blush Sculpt Trio Contouring Blush - again not a bad blusher at all, however, they call it a contouring blush and you just can't create a 3D effect with these, also because of the unfortunate packaging. Plus it has chunky shimmer and this shade on the picture, 102, is more like a bronze eyeshadow.

BEYU Beauty Blender - the worst makeup sponge I've tried so far and I've used both cheap ones and the most popular one. It doesn't expand at all when wet, feels stiff/hard and bouncing it on the face is almost painful.

EYES

MAYBELLINE The Falsies Push Up Drama Mascara - basically worst mascara in history. Sorry, not sorry, just check my original review where it's on my lashes. Formula is too thick. Most Maybelline mascaras are great so what happened here? | Positive review. 

BEYU Liquid Fine Liner - I liked this a lot from the start because it's super precise, but I got it only a couple of months ago and it's already too dry to use.

CATRICE Glam & Doll Super Black Liner - I couldn't do a smooth line with this, nor a flick. The formula isn't black enough either. 

STILA Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner - I'm just not loving this eyeliner. The tip on mine wasn't smooth, it was too flexible and I couldn't do a precise line. It also dried way faster than I expected. | Positive review. 

LAVERA Eye Shadow Base - doesn't do anything, neither intensify the colour or make the eyeshadows last longer. | Positive review. 

BEAUTY UK Eyeshadow Collection No.7 Naked- First row is just a bunch or poorly pigmented shades that look the same on the lids and in the bottom row, the last two shades also look the same. Only three shades are useful in the palette. 

BEYU Eyebrow Stencil Set - All are designed only for a very specific brow shape which I don't have, so I can't use any.

L'OREAL Brow Artist Sculpt - I know I'm not really one to judge because I don't use brow products, but I just don't get the applicator. Shades are also strange and the formula is odd too. | Positive review. 

LIPS

BEYU Cashmere Lip Color Matt - Though it's nicely pigmented and a comfortable product, it's not matte like it says, which I wouldn't mind that much, but staying power is too poor for me. | Positive review. 

ESSENCE Mat Mat Mat! Lipstick - I know everyone loves these, but it has such a poor staying power and the packaging isn't good. | Positive review. 

ESSENCE Velvet Stick 02 Peony Star - again a typical Essence product with no staying power and it's not matte or velvet, but I also don't like the colour of this one. BeYu's and Golden Rose's versions are perfect if you're looking for a matte chubby pencil. | Positive review. 

BEYU Scandalous Lips 81 Instant Feeling - this should be called a sheer stain because that's what it is. It has only a hint of colour on the lips and because of the shade, it doesn't look that even. The formula is very old school and I just prefer more modern, cream gloss formulas.

L'OREAL Baume Caresse 706 Coral me Back - I don't think this is sold anymore, I guess L'Oreal recognised it's not the best formula, but it's just a clear lip balm. They could add a touch more pigment, even if it's a lip balm.

NAILS

ESSENCE Studio Nails All in One Complete Care - Definitely not all in one and as a top coat it takes a million years to dry, while as a base coat it feels almost a bit rubbery. I still use it every time as a base because I have nothing else. 

BARRY M Speedy Quickly Dry Nail Paint Road Rage - Gorgeous colour, but horrible formula that's impossible to apply evenly. | Positive review. 

ESSIE Fiji - if you ever wondered what formula from hell is, this is it. I still use it on my toes because it's a nice colour and it doesn't matter how horrible the application looks.

SKINCARE

SOAP & GLORY The Ultimelt Deep Purifying Hot Cloth Cleanser - I don't know why I expected this to be more like a balm, but it's just a simple creamy cleanser, which is fine too, I guess. But my main problem with it is that it doesn't remove makeup well and my skin doesn't like it much. | Positive review. 

SOAP & GLORY The Greatest Scrub of All - my skin doesn't feel smoother with this. The scrubby bits feel very fine and it's pleasant to use, but I don't see a difference. | Positive review. 

BALEA Reinigungs Öl - I know so many adore this, but I just don't get it. It's so light, I need to use a ton of it and it doesn't even remove mascara well. It's just not comparable to more expensive products IMHO. By the way, I see it's still sold on DM website. I thought it was discontinued? | Positive review. 

GLAMGLOW Supermud Mask - I'm not saying it's bad, actually it's really good and I'm really happy Nadja gave me a sample, it's just not magical and it's majorly overhyped for what it is - a clay mask with scrubby bits (unlike most I feel no tingling). I find it insulting they charge so much for a damn face mask. I get the same effect with L'Oreal's Exfo mask, but they are not dupes. | Positive review.

BODY CARE

DVOREC TREBNIK Tropical Cocktail shower gel - it's just too thin for my liking and barely foams. But it does smells nice.

AFRODITA 100% Spa Sugar Scrub - I expected something along the lines of Soap & Glory scrubs, but this is sooo oily, you can't wash it off and it leaves this heavy layer behind. Flake Away also leaves a bit of an oily filter, but at Afrodita's it's just too much. At least it scrubs well. | Positive review. 

BALEA Golden Glamour Verwöhnpeeling - this is actually a decent scrub, though more on the gentle side for me, but the texture is so odd, like a jelly and it just slips from your hand in the shower, so the pot doesn't last you long. | Positive review. 

AVON Bubble Bath - for years I read reviews of mountains of bubbles with this and I got barely a 5 cm cover of foam no matter how much I used. Eurospin's/Hoffer/Lidl baths are better. | Positive review.

SAUBÄR Bubble Bath Honey and Almond - again the same deal as at Avon, there are just not enough bubbles. The formula is so thin too.

SILISS Créme Dépilatoire - I basically just realised I hate all depilatory creams, powders and other chemical preparations. They remove maybe 30 % of hair on me and it's not even smooth. This one just doesn't work on strong hair.

SILISS Stripless Wax - as satisfying this is too use and painless, it again manages to remove less than a half of hair. And I mean a half a cm long, strong hair. On a 1-2 mm long hair, you get no effect.

AFRODITA Hand Cream Olive 2 in 1 - This is just too old school for me and it takes way too long to sink in. I prefer Balea Pflegecremes and L'Occitane hand creams.

GARNIER Neo Deodorants Intensive Antiperspirant - I kind of made a couple people angry at me because I promised this is an anti-perspirant (it says on the bottle!) and I got complaints it doesn't work at all. They smell nice and look cool, but don't stop sweating. | Positive review. 

VISETT Haar Stop - this deserves a special place in hell! I paid 8 € for this and of course I didn't expect some amazing results, I'm not stupid, but I at least hoped it'll help me shave less often because I get maybe a half a day of smooth legs (seriously FML!), but this does absolutely nothing. It doesn't even work as a moisturiser. I just wanted one bloody extra day. I hate it with intense passion and I want my money back. | Positive review. 

HAIR CARE

L'OREAL Elseve Extraordinary Oil Conditioner, Mask and Oil - I adore the shampoo from this line, it's the best ever for really dry hair, but the rest of the line is disappointing. Even though the mask and conditioner have a thick formula, they do nothing on my dry hair and the oil is light as water. Try if you have normal/quickly oily hair with moderately dry ends. | Positive review. 

BALEA Oil Repair Haaroil Spray - I wanted a got2b Oil-licious dupe, but this does absolutely nothing. 

AFRODITA Serum 10 in 1 Protection - I don't know what this is. It's not a regular, nourishing oil and it's not a silicone, shine-giving styling oil. It just does nothing and doesn't even smell nice. As you can see, it's being used, but it's useless to me. | Positive review. 

JOHN FRIEDA Frizz Ease Secret Agent Perfecting Creme - so many good reviews, but it doesn't make my hair any less frizzy and neither more smooth. Dove is my choice here. | Positive review. 

SCHWARZKOPF Styliste Ultime Satin Frizz Control Anti-Frizz Lotion - I got this because I hoped it's similar to Dove, but it's thick, slightly sticky and it just coats the hair, yet has no effect. No frizz control on my hair. | Positive review. 

BUMBLE & BUMBLE Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Primer - so much hype for this? It does nothing, neither nourish the hair, neither make it more silky, smooth or frizz free. At least it's a heat protectant. | Positive review. 

PALMER'S Coconut Oil Formula Strong Roots - this should help with the itching of the scalp, but I saw no effect. | Positive review. 

Have a great day!

At the end of the year I like to make a general overview of the blogging year. You know the classics: most read posts, my favourite posts I wrote and my favourite bloggers/posts from others.


2016 marks my 6th year of blogging, I really hope you're not growing tired of me, I try not to be very annoying with stupid click bait tittles and preachy content. Biggest change this year is that I finally got a proper camera, Olympus Pen E-PL 7, so I'm not using just my smartphone anymore. In the next year I would love to upgrade it with a 45 mm lens if I decide to afford it (why does it have to be so expensive? Is it even worth it?) and my photography set up needs a spruce up as well. 

Let's start with six most read posts in this year. Images are links to the posts. By the way, if you're interested in last year's version it's here.

MOST READ POSTS IN 2016

MY FAVOURITE POSTS

POSTS I ENJOYED IN 2016

Again I'm sharing other people's work that I admired. When I like a post, I either pin it, save it on Bloglovin' or just remember it and at the end of the year I pick those that were my absolute favourites. They are mostly wishlist inducing - don't say I didn't warn you.
