November Favourites

The festive favourites are slowly showing for November so keep an eye out for next month's where they will be all over the place!!
1. Marks & Spencer's Boots

The Big Day | Hair & Makeup

I think deciding on my hair & makeup had to be one of the hardest decisions I made. I wanted to look flawless & natural but also wanted to have a slightly smokey eye. When it came to my hair I had decided on a neat but boho hair look. So you can imagine the trouble I had...

October Favourites

October favourites time! I feel like by the time I've done the last favourites post it's time to do the next.
Champneys Cloud 9 Body Butter

Oh I do love the scent of this body butter. It feels great on your skin & has a real mousse like look & texture. It's definitely perfect for a pamper night during the winter months.

Scent Season

Recently, my taste in perfume has really changed. Gone are the sickly sweet fruity products & in are the more musky & natural scents.

Here are my current top 5 fragrances!

September Favourites

Seeing as I've recently moved into our very first home together, this months favourites have managed to become fairly homeware based. I mean, it was bound to happen at some point with all the wish lists & that!
1. The White Company Diffuser

As we've been doing our house up, it really smelt of plaster, paint, gloss etc etc. Whilst we were away for Stephen's birthday in Bath, we nipped into The White Company & just happened to leave with this divine fresh fig diffuser which I can't get enough of. I'm already dreading the day the scent dies out.

Soap & Glory Mother Pucker Lipgloss | Review

I've never tried the 'Mother Pucker' lip gloss before but as soon as I saw this gorgeous shade, I just had to buy it! They have also brought out another 6 shades which I can't wait to give a try.

Review | Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate

This is a product that I have had for over a year now but for some reason, haven't yet blogged about! I've posted a review on the eye cream which matches this beauty of a product which you'll find here but I felt was about time I reviewed the original.

A Birthday Giveaway

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me...

Birthday Wish List

It's ma birthday, it's ma birthday, I'm gonna party like it's ma birthday... well, it will be on Saturday!
My gosh I'm excited, I'm such a child when it comes to birthday's & Christmas but who isn't?! The other day, I found myself on Polyvore & happened to create a little wish list... Oops!

Ps. keep your eyes peeled for a birthday giveaway this Friday!
Love, xx

Review | Seventeen Eye Eye Shadow

Seventeen isn't a brand that I would usually pick up in the shops. I don't think I even used any of their products when I was younger. For some reason, I find that Seventeen is meant to be for younger girls who are first experiencing makeup but after finding this beauty, they're definitely trying to change this perception.

Review | St. Tropez In Shower Tan

I'm a bit rubbish when it comes to fake tan routines. When I was younger, I was obsessed & wouldn't wear a skirt or shorts without having some colour on my legs which is probably due to the fact that i'm a ginge & a pale one at that! I then realised that I looked like a complete idiot (& a full on carrot) so stopped using it altogether & embraced the pale...
That was until the St. Tropez In Shower Gradual Tan launched!

A Jo Malone Experience | Bridal

Last weekend, I headed to Jo Malone on a mission to find my wedding perfume. You may ask, "why do you need a perfume for your wedding day?" Well... I thought exactly the same until a friend told me about their wedding perfume & the experience they had at Jo Malone.

Review | Stila Undercover Conditioning Toner & Moisture Prep

I've seen plenty of Stila beauty products on the shelves but have only just come across the skincare range. Usually, I'm pretty picky with what I use but for some reason I couldn't resist trying this!
I opted for the 'Undercover Conditioning Toner & Moisture Prep' in case I didn't get on too well with it as it was one of the cheaper products (or should I say "less expensive?")

May Favourites

This month, I "May" have bought some new products & they've been a dream. Bring on June & more amazing products!!
1. Tangle Teaser

I have finally (after about 5 years of having wanted one) bought a tangle teaser & my gosh do I love it. As a girl with long hair, I'm suffer massively with knots & tangles to the point where I dread having a shower as I'll have to tackle the mane. Since buying this, it's made brushing my hair a dream. If only I'd bought it sooner.

Review | Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel

Another product that I've had for ages, love but have never thought of reviewing. So the time has come for me to introduce the Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel to you!

Fabulous Five | Blogger Style

Recently, I found myself looking through posts from last year when I first started my blog & I came across one I did about my top 10 favourite bloggers.
A year on, I thought it'd be interesting to do this post again...
(only this time with 5 extra special recommendations)
1. The Londoner I love everything about The Londoner's blog. She seems down to earth, offers expert advice & lives the high life! Oh what we all dream of! I can't say that there's a style of post I prefer as I love them all whether it be food, travel or style! Definitely worth a visit!!
2. Ivory Lane I absolutely love Emily's blog. Her style is classically perfect & makes me want to buy everything! If you're looking for some style envy or should I say style inspiration then this is the place to go.
3. Classy Girls Wear Pearls Another style icon of mine. Sarah's style is quite different to the two bloggers above but I love it just the same. Her adventures are also definitely something to admire & aspire to.
4. The Little Magpie This blog is a fairly new discovery of mine but I've quickly fallen in love with her style posts above all. Her instagram is also to die for! A classic styler with some edge.
5. Oh January Another new blog for me to read & another new favourite. I love how she covers such a wide variety of topics & keeps me thoroughly entertained.
Make sure you go over, give them some love & check out last year's favourites here!

Thanks xx

1. Body Shop Body Butter

Review | NARSissit Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow Palette

NARS has quickly become one of my favourite makeup brands. It feels premium yet not so expensive that you gasp at the price. I already own a variety of their products each of which haven't disappointed & this NARSissist Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow Palette is no exception.

May Wish List

I just can't stop looking online for clothes, makeup & home ware. I think it's becoming a little unhealthy! I need an intervention.

In the meantime, it means that you get to see lots of wish lists too. Although, that probably isn't helping your addiction either. 

Apologies.

Review | Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm

I discovered Emma Hardie's Moringa Cleansing Balm over a year ago now & I can honestly say, I've never not loved this product & can't imagine changing now! To be honest, I'm not too sure why it's taken me so long to review it. Must have just slipped into my routine & out of my mind.
