I have had my bedroom furniture for a few years now, and am getting the itch to replace it! I already have a black Malm bed from Ikea, and a black ottoman, which I don't really want to get rid of, so at first I thought of getting black furniture to match. However, our bedroom isn't the largest, and too much black can make a space seem a lot smaller, SO I have decided to embrace the monochrome theme by mixing some black and white furniture.
A/W fashion has been having some great moments in 2014/15 but I think my absolute favourite trend is the camel coat revival. A coat that is glamorous, elegant and yet warm and practical - the camel coat wheedled it's way into my heart and is here to stay.
After having the flu over the Christmas period (joyous), my skin was terrible. Whenever I am ill, my skin seems to reflect what's happening on the inside, and I tend to get blemishes everywhere, along with dull and tired looking skin. Because of this, whilst I am waiting for the blemishes to clear up, I tend to use a higher coverage foundation than I normally would. Usually I favour lighter coverage, perhaps with some concealer in places where I really need it, but when my face is not looking it's best, that just isn't going to cut it.
So I know this is probably jumping on the bandwagon, and as with all things in life, I am probably a little late, but...consider this a hop skip and a leap right onto that wagon! I have been a bit of a closet (or should that be Kloset?!) Kardashian fan for a little while now....they are my guilty pleasure. I know, but I just can't help it! And, as well as the original Kim, Kourtney and, my personal fave, Khloe (the SASS! <3), I have been loving the Kendall/Kylie Jenner duo of late...
As I have mentioned here before in my MUA Lip Lacquer post, I am a lip product junkie. I have a huge container on my dressing table which is overflowing with lip products. It's a problem. But still, a couple more can't hurt, right?! Right. So, every year, my group of friends and I do Secret Santa - as there are 8 of us, it's a good way of keeping the cost of Christmas down and still giving (and receiving!) a really nice gift. This year my lovely Secret Santa - you know who you are, you beaut! - hit the nail on the head, and I was super excited when I opened this lovely lip trio from Lipstick Queen. I had heard and seen a little of this brand before, but getting these prompted me to do a little research.
Hello everybody, and welcome to 2015! I hope you have had an absolutely cracking Christmas and New Year. I have had a few days away from the internet to spend time with my family and friends, but now I am back, and I wanted to post today because something exciting has been happening whilst I have been stuffing my face full of turkey, chocolate and amaretto over Christmas!
