Happy Thursday guys, It's almost the weekend! It's been a chilly one hasn't it, not that I'm complaining I'm absolutely loving wrapping up in faux fur and over the knee boots. Gimme all those Khakis, Burgundy's and Camels shades NOW. I have been rather busy as of late, even managing to pop over to Paris to play with Minnie and Micky. Disneyland was everything I had hoped and dreamt, I loved all the intricate building and meeting some of the characters, such a big kid!
As we are coming into the new season I have been enjoying buying my new autumn/winter wardrobe, mostly online but a few little trips to the shops have also served me well... here's what I have been loving at the moment, enjoy!
Fashion Faves
Tassel Detailing
I love that tassel's are coming straight through from Summer, they had so much statement to any look.
I have my eye of lots more styles so watch this space!
Cardigan - Primark £12
The sleeveless Mac
I got this one from River Island and it was a little pricey but the quality is soooo good it's worth every penny as it will be warm for Winter. It isn't like the thinner material waist coat styles that are popular ATM it's thick and sturdy and looks expensive!
Sleeveless Mac - River Island £75
Thigh High Boots
Love, love, love these so much, they actually stay up and are more comfortable then they should be, and were such a bargain too! Instant chic!
Boots - Very - £40
Faux Fur
If I had a pound for every time someone asked where this was from overtime I wear it I was be a very rich lady buy Christmas, I haven't taken it off, the quality is great and the colours are beautiful! I add this to any pain jumper or coat and it gives me glamour on the go!
Faux Fur - Newlook via ASOS - £25
The perfect Zara combo
Every girl should have a basic pair of black boots and bag in their wardrobe ready for the colder months and ok I did already... but I needed an update for this year and Zara was my go to of course! They never fail me, the bag, the boots, together or apart are just perfection!
Bag - Zara - £29.99
Boots - Zara - £29.99
Hats, Hats, Hats!
If know me and my style by now, you may know are partial to a hat! Any kind really, I just love them! I always feel really sorry for people that say "ahh hats don't suit me" because genuinely I couldn't live without mine. Not only do they cover up my thick crazy hair to cover up on bad hair days they make me feel 'done' even if I'm wearing the plainest of outfits!
Topshop - £14
BCBGmaxazria - £40
TKmaxx - £16.99
Let's talk about Tan
Even though its Winter I still love to have a healthy glow and you haven't tried this tan you don't know what your missing. Vita Liberata leaves my skin soft, dark and smelling delightful, even this mitt is the best I have ever used! The quality for the price is amazing and I love using the instant wash off tan for tanning emergencies. The tinted self tanning lotion really does last for 7 days and is very easy to exfoliate, very girls dream! I can't wait for the Christmas packs to come out, I can't imagine using anything else now!
Vita Liberata - Strictly come dancing gift set - £20.00
Beauty bits
The Balm Cosmetics
Ok guys, I think I have found my new favourite make up brand, the names and the packaging are great! The pigment and quality in both of these products are insane! The eyeshadow pallet is just beautiful with the perfect neutral shade to create any kind of smokey eye. Don't me started on the highlighter, it's ridiculous - the cheek bones pop when I wear it. I even have my friends hooked, I want the whole range!
'Nude Tude' Pallet - £29.99
Mary - Lou Manizer - £17.49
Getting the Glow
Yes I know I'm a little late to the party but my god I love this so much, I finally caved in and brought it and I have been missing out for years. Weightless, great coverage and makes your skin look so glowy... I can't get enough. Yes its a little bit more expensive then usual, but I only need a little bit so I can see this lasting for months, try it out girls!
Nars Sheer Glow - £32
Best Brushes
These Real Techniques limited edition brushes are perfect for contouring, there is the short long dense brush for sculpting out cheekbones, fan brush for highlighter and a small fluffy blush brush perfect for applying product to the apples of your cheek, and at £20.99 I think they are reasonably priced as well as being super pretty!
Real Techniques Sculpting Set - £20.99
Let's not forget food
Coffee addict!
It's red cup season! I love this time of year when all the spiced coffee tastes come out, I have only really just got into coffee in the last few years but don't worry I'm definitely making up for lost time now. My fave is Gingerbread Latte, or an Iced Caramel Frappachino MMMMMMM.
Back to baking!
I have recently rediscovered my love of baking again, for me I do think it's more of an Autumn/Winter thing. I'm too busy sipping on cocktails and eating bikini friendly salad in the Summer! I made this very cute Victoria Sponge last weekend swell as these very fun but equally as tasty Ghostly Cupcakes for Halloween, I have a feeling a 'Bake with me' post will be coming to your screens very soon!
Avocado EVERYDAY!
I.JUST.LOVE.IT.SO.MUCH, healthy or unhealthy addiction whatever way you look at it I just can't stop and I'm not even sorry. I love it on toast, in salads or seasoned on it's own. Just make sure you catch them at the perfect ripeness! YUM.
Well I hope you enjoyed finding out my faves of the moment, I have a few don't I!
I've been thinking about starting a youtube channel so I can express my love of makeup, fashion, travel and everything I'm obsessed with in person to you all... it's bit daunting but I'm always up for a challenge!
So keep your eye's peeled... before I go here's a little quote I've been loving ATM
I'll keep you posted :)
