Pregnancy outfit ideas for colder weather: Grey Sweaterdress
Finally, an outfit of the day post where you can clearly see that I'm pregnant! Up until my third trimester, I wasn't really showing, and, in some outfits, even though I was wearing maternity clothes, I didn't even look pregnant! But now, my bump has definitely grown, especially as I'm heading towards my due date!
I'd love to shoot some more pregnancy outfit ideas, for this last trimester of pregnancy (I did film a pregnancy fashion haul that will be up on my youtube channel soon!), but lately I've been feeling quite tired, outside it's very cold, and it's just more difficult right now for me to get things done.
Sometimes I feel frustrated about this, because I have so many ideas and projects in my head, but I have to remind myself that I'm supposed to deliver my baby in less than 15 days, so I guess I'm excused when it comes to "not being able to get all things done" regarding my blog and youtube channel.
I love this grey sweaterdress by H&M! This is going to be a great item to wear even after my pregnancy. It's very versatile and it's like a basic piece you need to have in your wardrobe. You can create so many different stylings around it, and that's why I love it so much.
Konacno, outfit post u kojem je jasno i primjetno da sam trudna! Sve do treceg tromjesecja, skoro da se nije ni primjecivalo, iako sam nosila udobniju odjecu dizajniranu za trudnice, nisam bas izgledala trudno! Sada, trbuscic je postao prava velika lubenica i nema vise sumnje, a termin mi se opasno priblizava!
Voljela bih jos moci snimiti par outfita - ideja za trece tromjesecje, (snimila sam trudnicki fashion haul koji ce uskoro biti na mojem youtube kanalu!), ali iskreno, ne znam hocu li biti u mogucnosti: U zadnje vrijeme sam umornija, vani je jako hladno i jednostavno mi je teze obavljati neke poslove.
Ponekad me to zna dobro isfrustrirati, jer imam toliko ideja, projekata i planova, ali, moram si racionalizirati i prihvatiti cinjenicu da do termina fali jos manje od 15 dana i da je sasvim normalno ne uspjeti obaviti bas sve sto sam si zacrtala u vezi bloga i youtube kanala.
Evo, ovu sivu haljinu iz H&M-a volim jer mi je bila odlicna u trudnoci, a super ce izgledati i nakon poroda. Mozete ju nositi na puno razlicitih nacina i ukombinirati u razlicite stylinge pa se ona moze smatrati gotovo kao "basic" u ormaru (neophodan odjevni predmet, rekli bismo!).

COCONUT OIL PULLING FOR WHITE TEETH & HEALTHY GUMS (NUTRIENT WISE)
Hello beauties! Have you ever heard of coconut oil pulling? I just recently found out about it, even though, it's apparently an ancient tradition that has been used for centuries to whiten teeth and clean the bacteria and toxins from mouth, promoting healthy teeth and gums!
I'm a huge fan of natural oils and I'm using them religiously in my beauty routine (my favourite oils are line seed, argan, coconut, burdock, sapote, castor, jojoba, almond and rose oil), and I use them for my hair care, skin care and body care, so it wasn't difficult for me to addopt another way of using natural oils: as a part of my oral hygiene!
I always give a lot of importance to oral hygiene, I believe taking care of your teeth is so important.
Having that perfect smile and a set of white and healthy teeth makes you feel so much more confident, and makes you look so much more beautiful!
Especially during pregnancy it is advised to take extra care of your oral hygiene, because your gums can become weaker and teeth more prone to developing cavities and other dental problems.
Many products out there on the market contain harsh ingredients, but this coconut oil pulling is such a great, effective and natural method of protecting your teeth and gums.
I was delighted!
The brand which products I'm currently using for the Coconut oil pulling is Nutrient Wise and the coconut oil comes in little sachets that each contain 10 ml and are enough for one usage.
This product is designed particularly for the oil pulling as together with organic virgin coconut oil, contains peppermint oil, which leaves that pleasant fresh taste in your mouth.
Those are the only two ingredients this product contains, so as you can see, it's an all natural product!
Oil pulling- how it's done?
Oil pulling is actually very easy to do and it's something that can replace your mouth wash:
After brushing your teeth, cut sachet along dotted line and squeeze oil into mouth.
Then swirl it in your mouth for 5-15 minutes. Spit out immediately, rinse your mouth with warm water and smile! :-)
Coconut oil is the most indicated oil for pulling, as some other natural oils may actually stain your teeth, after a longer period of time.
You can use your regular coconut oil to do the pulling (the same you'd use for cooking), but I'm particularly fond of these little sachets as they also contain peppermint oil which gives you that fresh feeling, and also, they're handy to bring in your beauty case even on your trips!)
In my video I talk more about my experience with coconut oil pulling and I demonstrate you how it's done! You can take a look by clicking on the play button bellow:
Nutrient Wise is a brand oriented towards the nature and promotes healthy living habits. In their offer, besides coconut oil for pulling, they also have chewable multivitamins and organic detox tea.
Let me know, have you ever heard of coconut oil pulling and if you tried it out, how was your experience?

PREGNANCY OOTD: RIPPED SKINNG JEANS H&M MAMA & CASHMERE JACKET
Hello loves and hello 2017.!
I hope you all had fantastic holidays :-) I was relaxing at my home in Italy with my hubby, cooking delicious meals and watching movies...what else can you do when 37 weeks pregnant?
I started this New year quite busy running final tests before the big day...my due date is getting closer and closer, time is flying by super fast, and with this, my anxiety rises...I'm really trying hard to stay strong and brave, but the thought of ending up in a hospital makes me super desperate! Even though I keep repeating to myself that I'm going to the hospital not because I'm ill, but because of a joyful reason...sometimes it's hard to beat my phobia!
Anyway, that's why I'm blogging! I want to stay positive, creative and constructive :-) Here is my recent OOTD, and I have a short video for you as well!
My bump is so much bigger now, it definitely "exploded" when I entered 31.-32. week! On my instagram account you can follow my weekly bump updates!
Pozdrav ljepotice i pozdrav Novoj 2017.!
Nadam se da ste proveli fantasticne blagdane :-) Ja sam bila doma u Italiji u vrlo opustenoj atmosferi sa muzicem, kuhali smo puno fine hrane i gledali filmove...sto se drugo i moze raditi kada ste vec u 37. tjednu trudnoce i datum poroda sve je blizi?
Zapocela sam Novu obavljajuci zadnje preglede prije poroda i moram priznati da me to cini vrlo anksioznom, vrijeme nevjerojatno brzo leti, a moj strah raste...jako se trudim biti hrabra i jaka, ali najveci strah me je odlaska u bolnicu...kada razmisljam da cu morati tamo zavrsiti, hvata me panika i ocaj! Iako se trudim razmisljati da hvala Bogu, ne idem u bolnicu zbog bolesti vec zbog radosnog dogadaja, ponekad je tesko boriti se sa vlastitim fobijama i strahovima koje imam, a valjda od kad znam za sebe!
U svakom slucaju, uhvatila sam se bloganja kako bih ostala pozitivna, kreativna i konstruktivna!
Pripremila sam za pocetak ove Nove, jedan outfit post, a mozete pogledati i kratki video na mojem youtube kanalu!
Sada je moj "trbuscic" puno primjetniji, oko 31.-32. tjedna nekako je "eksplodirao", a updatee mozete pratiti i na mom instagramu!
