Healthy No-Bake Chocolate Cookies

Hello people!

Today I cooked these healthy no-bake chocolate cookies! I know, the presentation is not that great but  I assure you they taste really good!

You will need:
- 1/2 cups of butter.
- 1 cup of brown sugar.
- Half a glass of milk: you can add more of it if you need!
- A little bar of dark chocolate.
- 3 cups of dry oats.

How to do it?
It's really simple!
Melt the butter and the chocolate into a little pan (not in the same of course!).
Take a big bowl and put inside the sugar, the oats, the milk, the melted chocolate and the melted butter and then mix it all together until obtaining a thick consistency.
Create small cookies, put them in the fridge and let cool until set.
Then.. Buon appetito!
If you try this recipe make sure to send me a pic on twitter!
Love,

Victoria

HAUL

Hello people!
In these days I went shopping around Milan and I bought few things! 

1) I got this Zara sweater yesterday and it was on sale so I paid it € 4,99 which is amazing!
I really like the light brown color with the darker patches. It's a very classic item of clothing and I think it's nice wearing it at school or work! Unfortunately I couldn't find it on the website because of the sales! 

2) This Bershka T-shirt is super cute and girly! It's really long and fluffy! I love the blue flowers, they remind me of spring! You can wear this with jeans, leggings, or like I did with shorts and tights! 

3) I love body sprays. This one is from Hollister and is the Spray Silver Strand Beach. It was on sale and I paid it € 6 instead of € 14! It's made with tangerines, mango and coconut! The smell is delicate and not too sweet! It reminds me of summer.

4) Finally I got a wristwatch! It's from American Apparel and it's a pretty basic black one. Really simple and minimal. I paid it € 25! 

5) The last thing I got recently is this H&M pullover in blue. I love this color, I think is perfect for this cold winter in the city. 

I will talk to you soon,
Love, 

Victoria

10 Ways to Turn Around a Bad Day!

Hello people!
We all have bad days, right?
But you know what? There are lots of ways to make your bad day a good one!
I will tell you 10 ways that I really love. 

1) Go outside! 
Walk barefoot in the grass, if you live near a beach go there and put your feet in the sand.
Without connecting to the energy of nature, your bad day will get even worse.

2) Sign out of Twitter, Instagram and any other social media.
People will post only the positive parts of their lives and you don't have to compare your bad day with their happy one!

3) Listen to your favorite songs, sing along, dance!
It will make you feel better!

4) Take some time just for you!
You deserve it! Have a bath, drink a cup of tea, read a book, draw.. anything you love to do, do it!

5) Hug!
There's nothing better than a hug in a bad day.
Hug or cuddle someone, cuddle a puppy, you will feel ok.

6) Write down something you are grateful for!
You will see that in your life there are lots of positive things and your bad day won't stay longer.
Start with the little things!

7) Watch something funny!
Watch a funny movie, a funny youtube video, a funny vine instead of listening to some depressing music and videos.

8) Workout!
Go swimming, jogging, ice skating.. the world is full of options! But move, distract your mind for a bit.

9) Hang out with a friend!
Go shopping, or just for a walk, talk about anything, have a good laugh.

10) Eat your favorite food!


I really hope this will help you in your bad days.
I know is not that simple, but we can try hard and be positive, right?

LUSH: Honey I Washed the Kids Review

Hello people! 
A dear friend of mine gave me the Lush Honey I Washed the Kids soap.
Is a caramel/honey scented soap and I'm in love with it!
I use it when I wash my hands. 
It's great because it soothes and softens your skin. Also, the smell is amazing, it's really sweet and it's hard not to eat it! 
This soap contains sweet wild orange, bergamot oils, aloe vera gel and of course honey!
It's perfect for all the skins type, even for the most sensitive ones!
So, if you like Lush as much as I do and you like sweet scented soaps, go and ask for this!
Have you already tried it? 
Let me now!

Goodbye 2014!

Hello people! 
This week I'm here again because tomorrow is the last day of 2014 as you know.
Honestly, I feel a bit sad... 2014 has been an amazing year to me, I met awesome people, one of my dream came true, I really enjoyed it! 
By the way, I can't stop the time and rewind, right?
I wanna do a list of things I would love to do in 2015, I wanna write down anything, even if they will need more than a year to happen!
I wanna free my mind for a moment, you should do this too!

- Be more positive.
- Eat healthy food.
- Workout more.
- Go back to London and Paris.
- Visit new places.
- Save money for Australia and South Africa.
- See One Direction live again... (I'm such a fangirl)
- Be happy with myself.
- Work more for school.
- Hang out more.
- Read more books.
- Meet my favorite youtubers and singers/band again or for the first time.

I think I will write only these 12 resolutions. 
Maybe they are a lot, maybe I could write more of them.
I will try to work hard and do my best because they are things that I want with all of my heart.
I'm such a negative person, but I wanna change this part of me.
And you? What are your new year resolutions? Let me know!
I wish you an amazing 2015, YOU DESERVE IT.
Love, 

Victoria

My Favorite Matte Lipsticks

Hello people!
Today I'm here to show you my 3 favorite matte lipsticks of 2014!
In the past months, I used them almost everyday!

1) Taupe by Mac it's gorgeous! 
The color is perfect for an everyday look and also it is moisturizing even after a couple of hours. I think it is very nice wearing it at work or at school!

2) Kiko Velvet Mat n. 612 it' a very pretty pink matte lipstick.

I got this most recently but I fell in love the first time I saw it! 

I like to wear it when I hang out with friends around the city, when I go shopping or in any other girly moment! 

3) Kiko Velvet Mat n. 610 is the darkest one!

It's a pinky/chocolate color but personally I love it! I wear this at parties, at conventions and sometimes even at school! 

It looks maybe a bit dark but once you have it on it's really beautiful!

I hope you enjoyed this post and I will talk to you very soon!

Love, 

Victoria

The Christmas Tag

Hello everybody!
Just because it's almost Christmas, I would like to do the Christmas Tag so you can know me a little bit better.
I really love Christmas, I like the vibe in the city, the lights, the treats.. Everything!
Let's get started!


1. What is your favorite Christmas film?

My favorite is probably "Love Actually", it's really funny and it makes me feel more the Christmas vibe! I also love "Blizzard", when I was a child I used to watch it almost everyday!

2. Have you ever had a White Christmas?

Actually I can't remember. I live in Milan and usually here the snow comes around January! But I would love to have a proper White Christmas!

3. Where do you usually spend your holiday?

I spend my holiday in Milan, at home with my family! For the New Year's Eve we usually go to Mantova with some friends! I really prefer staying at home instead of being away during Christmas!

4. What is your favorite Christmas song?

I have no doubts about this! My favorite Christmas song is "Cold December Night" by Michael Buble!

5. Do you open any presents on Christmas Eve?

I used to do this when I was little! Now I don't, I open everything on Christmas morning!

6. Can you name all of Santa’s reindeer?

No, I can't! I only know Rudolph!

7. What holiday traditions are you looking forward to most this year?

This will be the first year without Santa, milk and biscuits and elves because my little sisters don't believe in Santa anymore... Maybe I'll cook some cupcakes or red velvet. Is that a tradition?

8. Is your Christmas tree real or fake?

It's fake!

9. What is your all-time favorite holiday food/sweet treat?

Pandoro, an Italian treat.. is delicious!

10. Be honest: do you like giving gifts or receiving gifts better?

Honestly? I prefer receiving gifts just for one reason: I'm really bad at giving gifts! I always want to find the perfect present for others but I'm never satisfied with it! And I always feel so sorry!

11. What is the best Christmas gift you’ve ever received?

As a lion lover, I have to say that the best Christmas gift I've ever received ( If I really have to choose of course), Is my Simba puppet from The Lion King. I love it, I always sleep with it, I'm such a child!

12. What would be your dream place to visit for the holiday season?

I've been in London around this period and it was stunning! I'd come back there right now if I could!
But I would also love to visit New York in December!

13. Are you a pro-present wrapper, or do you fail miserably?

Most of the times I fail miserably even thought my dream job was help Santa and his elves!

14. Most memorable Holiday moment?

I think that the most memorable thing is not a specific moment, but the fact that I believed in Santa and in the magic. It made me really happy, and the fault is on this if I am big dreamer today.

15. What made you realize the truth about Santa?

My mum told me the truth. I was very sad and disappointed, I was such a believer thought.

16. Do you make New Years resolutions? Do you stick to them?

I do but I don't stick on them. But this year i will do my best, promise!

17. What makes the holidays special for you?

Being able to get away from all the stress and focus more on me and my family!


I wish you a very merry Christmas!
Lots of Love,

Victoria!
