Apricot Souffle %

Whilst browsing the shops in the city a few weeks back, I found out that they have a small Sephora shop based in one of NL's department chain stores. I absolutely LOVE Sephora in the States because it's just like a little heaven for a cosmetics addict like me ;) Anyways the Sephora department here in The Hague is pretty small but still sells their own brand Sephora, Benefit & Too Faced which is fabulous. 
Of course I couldn't resist a little purchase so I got the Sephora Super Shimmer Lipgloss in "Apricot Soufflé".

I have been wearing this gloss most days on my holiday and just love it! 
It's a perfect natural, slightly peachy pink lip gloss with multi-holographic shimmers & a yummy apricot taste. 

Think I might  have to check out what other colours they have in this lip gloss. Any recommendations?

Guess who's back, back again?

Roz is back, tell a friend :) !!! I have safely returned 'home' (to The Hague) after a very relaxing 4 week holiday around Europe. We ended up visiting Titisee & the Black Forest (in south Germany), Lake Lugano (in south Switzerland), Verona, Vicenza, Padova, Venice, Ravenna, Bologna & Lago Maggiore (in Italy), Koper, Piran & Izola (in Slovenia), Rovinje, Porec, Pula & Zagreb (in Croatia), Ljubljana, Dovje & Kranjska Gora in the Slovenian Alps and finally Interlaken & the Swiss Alps. Sooo as so you can I covered a lot of ground in 4 weeks. However it was still very relaxing and fun. I visited many cities, did hiking in the mountains, read about 7 books, worked on my tan and of course also managed to get a bit of shopping done :p 


I have to admit though that it is lovely to be back in the world of communication again; oh how I missed my MAC book and the internet! I'm very happy that I can now catch up on all my favourite blogs & of course start blogging again myself! For today to kick off my return to the world of Dutchessroz I will just post a quick FOTD & OOTD :)

We're all going on a Summer Holiday#

We're all going on a summer holiday.
No more working for a week or two.
Fun and laughter on a summer holiday.
No more worries for me and you.
For a week or two.

We're going where the sun shines brightly.
We're going where the sea is blue.
We've seen it in the movies.
Now let's see if it's true.

Everybody has a summer holiday
Doing things they always wanted to.
So we're going on a summer holiday
To make our dreams come true
For me and you.

You have to love that Cliff Richard song, it always makes me smile
Anyways, I'm not sure about you guys but I am going on MY Summer Holiday tomorrow, woohoo :) 

I am going with my parents driving & camping through Europe - from the Netherlands with as end destination Croatia. We will probably make some stops along the way in Switserland & Northern Italy. I can't wait to use my new camera to hopefully get some beautiful photo's. 

I will be on holidays for 4 1/2 weeks!

This does mean however that I will be missing in action from my blog for all this time! I will really miss it :(

I really hope you all have an AMAZING summer (or winter, wherever you are in this world) & see you in about 5 weeks! 

Mwah xoxo Lots of Love, Roz
