I love date nights, I love the process of preparing for going out, deciding on the makeup I will wear or my outfit. The whole process is something I really enjoy doing. Also it is really an amazing opportunity to have some special time with my husband, to get out of the house, spend some quality time together, talk about our marriage and get some good food. We actually do that every month on the date we get married and so far it has been an amazing feeling to have one special night every month. My husband got that idea a few months ago and even though our marriage is still young, I think this is going to be a very important part of our marriage in the years to come. It is important to keep some romance, real conversation and of course initial dates every month if you want marriage to succeed. We all know that love is not enough for a great marriage, you need to work on your relationship, understanding and romance. So in this blog post I’ll share with you our last dinner date we had in Jensens Bøfhus, which is basically a popular Danish steakhouse.
I’m not someone who goes to steak houses often. I’m more a fan of light, easy meals, but as I don’t prepare steaks at home usually, it was a perfect opportunity to get some good quality steak and enjoy our time together. We didn’t go for a vine on this dinner, we both got cocktails. My husband went for Cuba Libre with spicy rum, while I got Rum tonic with white rum and lemon. We both decided to get steaks as we are in the steak house, so you know that steaks will be amazing. I decided to go for steak with garlic butter. My husband got steak with spicy sauce, I don’t remember what it was, but I tried the sauce and it was amazing. My steak was really good, I always go for ‘medium well’ temperature and it was perfectly cooked. I really enjoyed my steak. The potatoes on the side were also really great, soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. We really had a great dinner, food was amazing, my cocktail was great also and over all I really enjoyed Jensens Bøfhus restaurant. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, it is definitely great.
I will talk about my makeup and outfit details a bit. For the makeup I decided to do a soft smokey eye with black intense liner. Most colours that I went for were cool toned, as in autumn time I enjoy cooler shades. I decided to use a pink highlighter and mauve blush. For the eye shadows I went for cool purple tones and I think my makeup looked really nice. I also used cool toned lip gloss, which was a darker mauve colour. My hair was a straight sleek back hair style that I love doing. I straightened my hair, added a bit of glow serum to the ends of my hair and used a Lé Mosh Denmark head band with animal print. I wore my usual gold jewellery pieces that I always wear. My Caravelle NY watch with a teal face and I wore NA KD beautiful earrings. I love these earrings, they look beautiful when you wear hair out of your face. For the outfit I wore my Mango army green coat that looks beautiful in casual or dressy combinations. For the bag I went for a DKNY black shoulder bag and the boots are Gino Rossi. I wore black Max Mara dress and Joop printed pantyhose. I also wore my new elegant silk and velvet scarf that looks beautiful with more dressy outfits. For the perfume I decided to wear Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille.
After dinner we decided to walk around the city. The weather was really nice, there was no rain, the wind was not too intense, as it usually is haha. I love walking in Aarhus at night, it is so beautiful and always lively and full of people. We walked around for a long time, I also took a photo so I can show off my outfit in this blog post. As the sky was so starry and clear we decided to drive to the beach which is one of my favourite places in Aarhus. When we came to the beach, it was quite windy and cold. But we enjoyed looking at the stars and hearing the ocean. It was so romantic and beautiful, we really had a great time. We spent about 30 minutes on the beach and then decided to go home. When we got home, we decided to watch a movie and relax.
