What you didn't know of me... you're about to find out

Hi there!

Recently, sweet Mimi of Mimi Manicures blog tagged me with 'The Beauty Blogger Tag Questionnaire'.
Nedavno me slatka Mimi s Mimi Manicures bloga tagirala s 'Beauty Blogger Upitnikom'.

So, today's post is all about me . 

I tako, današnji post je samo o meni.

1. Is your hair naturally curly or straight?

I would say something in between, it's wavy, but if there's moist in the air it will soon be curly.

1. Imaš li kovrčavu ili ravnu kosu:

Rekla bih nešto između, valovita, ali ako je višak vlage u zraku brzo će se pretvoriti u kovrčavu.

2. What is your natural hair colour?

I used to be blond, now it's boring brownish... with grey . 

2. Koja je tvoja prirodna boja kose?

Nekad je bila plava, sad je dosadna smećkasta... sa sijedima.

3. Do you dye it yourself or go to a salon?

Usually I do it myself, really rarely I go to the salon just for dyeing.

3. Bojaš li se sama ili u salonu?

Obićno to odradim sama, rijetko idem u salon samo zbog bojenja.

4. Do you wear the same style every day or do you change it?

I change it, depends on my mood... after all, I'm a woman . 

4. Isti stil svaki dan ili ga mijenjaš?

Mijenjam, zavisno od raspoloženja... pa ipak sam žena.

5. Do you do your own mani/pedi or go to a salon?

I sometimes go to the salon for a pedicure, but manicure is my pleasure and fun.

5. Pedikuru/manikuru radiš sama ili u salonu?

Koji put odem u salon na pedikuru, ali manikura mi je zadovoljstvo i zabava.

6. How often do you change your nail polish?

I would say... every second day, sometimes even more often. Now I'll shock you - my nails are naked from saturday... I feel such lack of inspiration .

6. Kako često mijenjaš lak za nokte?

Paaa... svaki drugi dan, iako se zna desit i češće. A sad šokantno priznanje - nokti su mi goli od subote, inspiracija mi je totalno izdušila.

7. Do you polish your toes in winter or just in the summer?

Of course I do!... polish my toes in winter too.

7. Lakirate li nokte na nožnim prstima i zimi ili samo ljeti?

Naravno!... da lakiram prstiće u čarapama i zimi.

8. How long does it take for you to put on your make-up?

If I'm in a hurry, I can do it for some 5 minutes, but if I have the time, I'll take it easy and enjoy myself for about some 20-30 minutes.

8. Koliko ti treba da se našminkaš?

Ako mi se žuri, sve mogu odraditi u 5 minuta, ali ako imam vremena onda to radim zbilja polako pa se otegne i do 20-30 minuta.

9. What do you do first, face or eyes?

Face first, guess old habits die hard. 

9. Što prvo mažeš, oči ili lice?

Prvo lice, stare navike teško umiru.

10. Do you collect make-up or just buy what you need when you need it?

I collect nail polishes. With rest of cosmetics I'm not so impulsive, usually I buy what I need... but sometimes can't resist something I see on shelves. 

10. Skupljaš li make-up ili kupiš samo ono što trebaš kad trebaš?

Skupljam lakove za nokte. S ostatkom kozmetike baš i nisam tako impulzivna, obićno kupim ono što mi treba... ali koji put mi se desi da ne uspijem odoljeti nečem s police.

11. How often do you wear false eyelashes?

Lol, I never wear them at all. But for some time I keep saying myself I have to get me some.

11. Koliko često nosiš umjetne trepavice?

Lol, nikad. Ali već neko vrijeme obećavam sebi da ću nabaciti koje.

12. Do you do a full face of make-up every day?

Not every day, but almost every day. I love to play with eyeshadows, change my mood with colors. And I wear bb creme every day!

12. Nosiš li kompletan make-up svaki dan?

Ne svaki, ali skoro svaki dan. Volim se igrati, naročito sa sjenilima i promijeniti si raspoloženje bojama. A bb kremicu nosim svaki dan!

13. Do you wear make-up when you are home alone or with family?
Usually yes.
13. Nosiš li make-up i kad si doma samo s obitelji?
Obićno da.

14. Will you leave the house without make-up?
Nope.
14. Izlaziš li iz topline doma svoga bez make-upa?
Ma jok!

15. How many high-end products do you have?
Now... none. Sleek palette is the most expensive thing in my collection.
15. Koliko skupljih odnosno high-end proizvoda imaš?
Sada... nijedan. Sleek paleta je mislim najskuplja stvar koju imam u kolekciji.

16. Do you plan your OOTD every night or decide when you're getting dressed?
No, I just wear what I feel like that day.
17. Planiraš li OOTD (obleku) navečer ili odlučuješ dok se oblačiš?
Ne, obućem ono što mi se taj dan svidi.

17. How often do you change your handbag?
I have a few of those... usually I change them with seasons.
18. Kako često mijenjaš torbu?
Imam ih par (i više pari)... obićno ih mijenjam s promjenama godišnjih doba.

18. What time do you get up and go to sleep?

I'm rarely in bed before midnight... but once in bed I love to read for at least half an hour, sometimes for whole night, I can't help it. If I don't need to go anywhere, I sleep till 9 or even 10. 
18. Kad ideš na spavanje i kad ustaješ?
Rijetko sam u krevetu prije ponoći... ali u krevetu obavezno čitam barem pola sata, koji put i čitavu noć, ne mogu si pomoći. Ako nigdje ne moram ići, spavam do 9 ili čak 10.

19. Do you work out? How often?
Nope... I used to, but for last few years I'm pretty lazy in that department.
19. Vježbaš li? Kako često?
Na žalost, ne... prije jesam, ali zadnjih par godina sam se stvarno ulijenila.

I really don't know to whom to give this award... I always feel like everyone deserves to have it and if I give it to some people, the rest of you will be deprived, so people, grab it for yourself, I'd love to. Please, take it! Pretty please!

Stvarno ne znam kome dati nagradu... uvijek mi se čini da ih svi zaslužuju i da ako ih dam samo nekim ljudima da će ostatak biti uskraćen, pa narode moj, uzmite ih sami, voljela bih. Molim vas, uzmite ih! Lijepo molim!
