What I Read | January

Something that I have really got back into over the last few years is reading. I used to always have my head stuck in a book when I was younger but I seemed to lose interest when I hit secondary school however I slowly but surely got back into it. I have decided to do a monthly 'What I Read' post...

Wishlist | London Edition

So tomorrow I'll be jetting off to London for a few days to spend with Lizzy and her family and I'm so excited. As we are going to London, it would be rude not to shop, right? Over the last few weeks I have been compiling a list of things that I have my eye on to buy. I don't plan on going over...

Ikea Haul

Ah Ikea, whether I go for something specific or just for a browse, I never seem to come out empty handed (with a car boot full of unnecessary items). But lets be honest, when it comes to the products they are cheap, cheerful and (most of the time) very cute. During the week, despite the fact that...

Essie - Bahama Mama

Ok ok I admit it, I'm not crazy about nail varnish. It's never something I think of buying on my trips to Boots but when I get one I like, I don't take it off! Lizzy kindly gave me this one for Christmas (as she has seen my fail of a nail varnish collection) and I haven't taken it off since....

High End Makeup Products That I Just Can't Live Without..

Even though I spend way more money in Boots, I just love splurging every once in a while on more high end makeup products. I don't know what it is, I think it's the process.. The endless researching, then saving, the swatching and then the eventual purchase (please tell me I'm not crazy for overthinking...

MAC Boldly Bear Lipliner Review

I have always struggled to find the perfect nude lip shade for me. They always seem to wash me out or just look really weird on me, even MAC's Creme Cup which is meant to suit everyone. However I think I have finally found a winner.. MAC's lipliner in Boldly Bear! The lipliner of the moment...

'The Goldfinch' by Donna Tarte | Book Review

You just can't beat a good book, becoming absorbed into a fictional world that I feel the TV just can't provide. During 2014 I really got back into reading so one day I picked up 'The Goldfinch' by Donna Tarte in the promotional section of Easons. I had heard nothing about this book before I bought...

Olivia's First Outing | OOTD

Ooh how exciting, my first outfit post with my new camera (which I called Olivia, that's normal right?!). On this chilly afternoon, Lizzy and I decided to take it on a little outing to the park. I seem to be the last person to (finally) get a skort. I have always admired them from a far but...

First Impression | Charlotte Tilbury - Glastonberry Lipstick

As I have previously mentioned, there is nothing more that I love than a good bold lip. It's no secret that the lipstick of A/W 2014 has been the Charlotte Tilbury Revolutionary Matte Lipstick in Glastonberry so I knew I had to get my hands on it ASAP.  As I want to end on a high...

The Roll Neck Jumper

During these cold Winter months there is nothing more that I love doing than wrapping myself up in a duvet and watching movies because the Winter weather isn't my friend! As a result on the days that I have to venture outside I tend to gravitate towards jumpers to keep me nice and warm. This season...

NARS Sheer Glow Foundation Review

It's true, I have way too many foundations. Did I need any more? Probably not but that didn't stop me from putting the NARS Sheer Glow foundation on my Christmas wish list after hearing non stop about how amazing it is. Despite all of my foundations, I found myself in a foundation rut. None...
