Every camping trip to the countryside demands a sleeping bag. The weather, the place, your own

body temperature, are the factors you must consider even before the material and the temperature

rating of your sleeping bag itself. Sleeping bags are also crucial to maintain as any wear and tear

can send you on a trip to the store to buy a new one.

If you’re tired of your old sleeping bag or buying one for the first time, here are five tips you’ll need to

find the most comfortable one for your next camping trip.

1.    Temperature Ratings

Most bags have European temperature ratings on them which are labeled as T-Comfort and T-limit.

The T-comfort is the value of the lowest temperature you should be using your bag as if you’re an

average woman. The T-limit is the value of the lowest temperature you should be using your bag in if

you’re an average man. Therefore, look for gender-specific bags that match the values of 32

degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degree Celsius.

2.    The Shape of The Bag

The shape of the bag determines the amount of warmth you’ll be packing in while sleeping in your

bag. The two common shapes of the sleeping bags are mummy and rectangular. The mummy cut

packs more warmth during a camping trip whereas rectangular one can be used for warmer

seasons. Always look for a bag with a zipper on the side so that you can cover your feet well. A

comfy sleeping bag works best here.

3.    Sleeping Pad

The sleeping pad of your bag has an R-value that determines when you can use your bag. If you like

to camp all year round, it’s crucial to choose a bag with an R-value of 3. You must look for a bag

that provides you a good warmth, has memory foam and is also light in weight.

4.    Synthetic or Down

Your sleeping bag could either offer down insulation or a synthetic one. The down insulation is

provided with the help of bird’s plumage that lies under its feathers. Thus, this amounts to the fill

power which is the number of cubic inches displaced by one ounce of down.

The highest quality of the insulation comes from a goose down. However, when buying your first

sleeping bag, go for a synthetic one as it’s more durable, lighter, less expensive, and isn’t affected

by changes in weather. The only problem with a synthetic sleeping bag is that you’ll have to change

it every few years as it loses its warmth over a period.

5.    Testing and Storage

Always try sleeping in the bag before you buy it as you’re able to check its sleeping pad and if your

feet push on its foot box. If the sleeping pad under your bag slips every time you open the zipper,

then it’s of no use. Make sure that your feet don’t push on the foot box of the bag. Otherwise, you’ll

be very cold. If you’re confused about the size of the bag, go for a bigger one.

Giving gifts has existed for centuries. It is the perfect way to show appreciation for that special

someone in your life.

But deciding what gift to give can also be a daunting task, especially if the person you are giving the

gift to is someone you are close to. Your husband, for example. Some spouses think it's actually

harder to buy gifts for their husbands because men tend to disregard the sentiments when it comes

to giving and receiving gifts.

If you're having a hard time looking for a gift for your husband, check out the tips below so that you

don't need to get stressed the next time you have to buy a gift for him.

1. Set a budget - first and foremost, decide how much you are willing to spend. If the occasion is his

birthday, you may have more budget to spend as you will only be buying a gift for him. But think

about the other things you will be spending on for that occasion. Maybe you also want to prepare a

special dinner or even a trip out of town. You have to factor all those when you set a budget for your

gift.

2. Consider his lifestyle - this factors in how much you know about your husband. Aside from

considering his work, you also need to consider his hobbies and his personality. Is your husband the

tech-savvy type or is he more of an outdoorsman? It's easy to pick a necktie for example, but even

if you buy designer ones, if he does not wear neckties to work then it might be useless.

3. Try to recall past hints he may have given - everyone wants to receive gifts that they truly want,

so try to see if your husband has talked about some things more than once in the past. Maybe he's

been eyeing a certain gadget, or footwear; recall instances when you were together and he talked

about a certain merchandise that he seems to be keen on owning. If you purchase that, then there

is no doubt that he will truly appreciate your gift.

4. Give a gift that has high-quality - some men are not too keen on spending too much. A way for

you to show how much you value them is to give them a gift that is made of quality material. You

can choose to buy something that is not too expensive but still feel luxurious.

5. Choose something that is useful- unlike women, men are more prone to appreciate gifts that

are practical. So you need to make sure that you purchase a gift that can be used regularly. How

about a luxurious grooming kit? Or, if your husband is someone who likes to relax while reading a

book or watching TV, maybe you can get him a bed rest lounger. Not only is it something practical,

but they are made so that he can be comfortable and relaxed. You can get more info about the top

bed loungers on this website.

Whenever I get a strong urge to change my hair I tend to save my nerves, natural hair and money by getting myself a crazy color wig I fall in love instantly. This month that wig is purple ombre wig from Gearbest that I am in love with. 

Soon as winter has surprised us with snow and below zero temperature last week even tho spring has begun, outfit post will have to wait until next week. But don't worry, it's coming right up. In the mean time, enjoy more of these cosplay wigs.

I am wearing:

Wig: Gearbest

Jacket: Zaful

Shirt: Calliope

Let me know what you think about cosplay wigs dolls!

Zdravo dragi moji u dobrodošli u novi beauty post! Ovom prilikom ćemo pričati o novim Golden Rose proizvodima koji vas čekaju na policama drogerija i Golden Rose shop-ova ovog proleća. Pričaćemo o Golden Rose Foundation & Concealer 2 in 1 puderu i korektoru, Golden Rose Metallic sjajevima za usne, Golden Rose Metallic olovkama za oči, Golden Rose Metals mono senkama i Golden Rose Lip Butter proizvodima za negu usana. Pripremite se, polećemo!

Počećemo sa proizvodom kojim sam se najviše oduševila - Golden Rose Foundation & Concealer 2 in 1 - Golden Rose 2u1 puder i korektor dolazi u providnoj bočici sa pumpicom u kojoj se nalazi 30 ml proizvoda. U pitanju je nova formula koja se može koristiti i kao korektor i kao tečni puder, te je stoga tekstura gušća nego kod većine tečnih pudera. Prekrivna moć je odlična (full coverage) i za moje lice je potrebna jedna i po pumpica za potpunu prekrivenost. Proizvod se malo teže razmazuje, ali ono što je sjajno jeste da beauty blender upija mnogo manje proizvoda nego kod drugih pudera, upravo zato što je gust. Nijansa koju imam je 05 Cool Sand i savšreno odgovara mom bledom tenu. Proizvod sadrži vitamin E i SPF 15, bez ulja i dodatih parabena. Na mojoj suvoj koži se pokazao sjajno i stoji ceo dan bez problema. 

Zatim tu je Golden Rose Metals Metallic Shine Lipgloss - Golden Rose metalik sjaj za usne koji dolazi u elegantnoj providnoj bočici u kojoj se nalazi 4.5 ml sjaja. Aplikator je isti kao i kod Golden Rose tečnih mat ruževa, vrlo jednostavan za aplikaciju, uglavnom nije potrebno više od jednog sloja. Možete ga koristiti preko bilo kog ruža ili samog, s obzirom da je pigmentacija fantastična. Daje moderan metalik odsjaj vašim usnama. Skida se tokom jela, pa ga je neophodno korigovati po potrebi. Nijansa koju vam pokazujem danas je 07 Wine Red, a u prodaji možete naći još interesantnih nijansi ovih metalik sjajeva za usne.

Sledeći proizvod je Golden Rose Metals Metallic Eye Pencil - Golden Rose metalik olovka za oči koju možete naći u nekoliko svetlucavih nijansi, a nijansa koju ću vam pokazati danas je 04. U olovci se nalazi 1.6 gr proizvoda što znači standardna količina. Sama tekstura je srednje kremasta i izuzetno pigmentovana. Lepo izgleda i na kapku umesto ajlajnera, ali i na u waterline-u. Metalik odsjaj je primetan, ali suptilan u isto vreme.





Sledeći proizvod je takođe jedan od mojih favorita. U pitanju je Golden Rose Metals Metallic Eyeshadow - Golden Rose metalik mono senka za oči. Senka koju ću vam pokazati danas je predivne nijanse 03 rosette. Senke dolaze u kartonskom pakovanju u kome se nalazi plastično pakovanje sa 4.5 gr senke što je poprilično izdašno. Pigmentacija ove senke je prosto fantastična. Senku možete koristiti preko celog kapka samo nju ili u kombinaciji sa drugim senkama, najbolje na sredini kapka. Sa vlažnom četkicom efekat je još bolji, kao glitter.





I poslednji novitet za danas je Golden Rose Lip Butter - Golden Rose buter za usne u novom popularnom pakovanju u obliku jajeta. Ovaj simpatični buter za usne ima istu funkciju kao labelo, tu je da pruži hidrataciju vašim usnama, kao i zaštitu sa svojim SPF 15 faktorom za zaštitu od sunca. U samom pakovanju se nalazi čak 8 gr proizvoda i možete ga naći u nekoliko verzija poput cookies i green apple koji možete videti na slici.

To bi bilo sve za ovaj post dragi moji! Da li ste probali neke od ovih proizvoda? Kakva su vaša iskustva sa Golden Rose Metals kolekcijom? Recenziju prethodnih Golden Rose Metals proizvoda možete pogledati ovde i ovde.

Do sledećeg posta,

Hello my darlings! Are you having a lovely day? I hope you are taking your time to get some and of course, read a bit of blog posts! What we will be talking about here on the blog today is not the usual topic related to fashionable clothing, shoes and accessories. We will be checking out some new topics that I'm sure you guys will like a lot!

Today I'd like to discuss where you can get yourself all sort of hair products such as wigs and hair extensions in any color, size or texture, with affordable price. I'd like to present you with an online store I recently discovered that is called UniWigs. As a leading online hair extensions seller, UniWigs is supplying full line of hair extensions products with the most professional team who have been working in this field for years. Every single of their products in the store goes through testing and quality control procedure, that will ensure that each and every item purchased meets global quality standards. They offer their customers Brazilian hair, hair weave, hair extensions, wigs, hair tools and many other products! For all of you regular simple color hair extensions lovers there are products like these synthetic wigs that fit perfectly and look so natural on you.

I am lately in love with ombre styled hair extensions. Ombre is a difficult style to pull off on your own hair without getting some of it damaged, so why not just get yourself something like that in a form of wigs or hair extensions that you can just put on and be fabulous straight away? 

There are also some balayage hair extensions moments that you can check out in three pretty colors that I find very cute. For you who like to experiment even more with colors, there are pink wigs and more crazy colors you can choose from.

What do you think about hair extensions, wigs and similar products dolls? Do you have any shopping experiences in this field? Please share your thoughts my lovelies, I'd love to hear that!
