Winter Wishlist!

1.   Jeffrey Campbell Lita
I think these would be perfect for going out down town in the winter as they’d definitely keep feet warm, and would look cute paired with a pair of lace socks (number 3.). Although £120 seems quite expensive, I think you definitely get your money’s worth as they seem quite hardwearing. The raised platform also means the shoes aren’t as uncomfortable as they look, as the feet won’t be at such a harsh angle.

2.   Topshop Faux Fur Collar
I’ve noticed these in stores everywhere and will definitely be purchasing one soon! They add lovely detail to any jacket/coat, especially leather. This specific one from Topshop is £35, but they can be purchased anywhere from H&M to Matalan from just £6, but make sure you get a soft faux fur as some can be very harsh and irritate your neck.

3.   Wine Organza Trim Ankle Socks
These laced top socks are perfect for going out down town in winter as they look cute whilst still keeping you warm! These are included in Topshop’s 3 for 2 offer so you could pick up 3 for just £7.

4. Liz Earle Botanical Essence No.15
Ever since I ordered the Cleanse and Polish and received a sample of this perfume, I have loved it! Each time I wear it I get people asking what the smell is. I’m really bad at describing perfumes but on the website they claim it has a “fresh, spicy and oriental scent”. I would normally consider £45 for a 50ml perfume rather expensive, but for me, this is definitely worth it and (I think!) I’ll be getting it as a present for Christmas this year. Apparently it is just like Viktor and Rolf’s Spicebomb, but they are both the same price for the same size so I suppose either would do!

5. Neom Candle in the scent Vanilla & Sandalwood
After my Yankee Candle is used up, I think I am going to invest in an Luxury Organic Neom candle, and I like the sound of the vanilla and sandalwood scent! They have a few Christmas candles out but I’m not so keen on Christmas notes, such as cinnamon. The Neom candles do not leave soot and are organic so they release no pollutants after they’ve been put out. This candle costs £39.50 but burns for up to 50 hours, so I think it is definitely worth it.

6. Mulberry Alexa
I have wanted a Mulberry bag forever and I especially adore this over the shoulder bag! The Alexa comes in a few sizes, and I think this one is ideal for an everyday bag and it is made using top quality materials, so is hardwearing and would definitely last a very long time, this size would set you back a pricey £895.

Skincare Routine

Image
Starting with the morning, as I tend to not wear foundation in the daytime, but need other products such as my concealer to blend onto my skin nicely, I make sure I always use a moisturiser with an SPF of at least 30, regardless of the time of year. This is important when using the Alpha H Liquid Gold, as the active ingredients make skin much more sensitive to any rays and more likely to contract sunburn. The moisturiser I opt for is Elizabeth Arden's Flawless Future Moisture Cream which I find very lightweight and soothing on the skin. Throughout the day if my lips feel dry I apply the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant to them, as learnt from Gabbie Lindley from VelvetGh0st, which makes lips feel moisturised and have a nice sheen to them. If I'm heading out in the evening and want to wear a drying, matte lipstick I will feel like they are primed and smooth enough to do so. I sometimes pop this on my brows too to keep them in place as my friend Georgi...

REVIEW! Mane N Tail The Original Shampoo and Conditioner

Image
  As I tend to rave to everyone and their dog about this line of haircare I thought I would compile my thoughts in a blog post (after two years of no posting – oops!).  I first heard about Mane N Tail from Cosmetics Charlotte on YouTube (Now called CharlottesChance). I immediately ordered the “original” shampoo and conditioner from Amazon to see the results for myself.   From the first wash I was hooked; my hair has never felt so soft and manageable; my unruly curly hair became much easier to style, whether I left it to dry naturally or used a hairdryer. I try to make sure that I don’t use them more than once a week as I am worried that my hair will get used to them and I often take breaks between repurchasing them as I know once I use it in my hair again, I will feel the effects more intensely. The added benefit is definitely the hair growth – if you’re in the market for a product to do this them make sure you purchase a set as I have tried many products cl...

Christmas Wishlist!

Dear Santa… Pixi Glow Tonic 250ml £18 http://www.marksandspencer.com/glow-tonic-250ml/p/p22424632?&pdpredirect Who doesn’t need an extra glow in this awful weather? I have heard raving reviews about this cult product but for some reason I’ve never picked a bottle up, although they handily stock the Pixi range in Marks and Spencer in the UK. They also sell a cute giftable 100ml for £10 in their Christmas range. (If you’re quick and spend over £35 you may also be eligible to get their advent calendar for £35 too! So total spend is £70 to pick one up, and they are worth over £200) Kate Spade One in a Million “J” Necklace £50 http://www.selfridges.com/GB/en/cat/kate-spade-new-york-one-in-a-million-j-12ct-gold-plated-pendant_133-3003424-WBRU7652/ I love this dainty necklace from Kate Spade and its personal touch of having an initial in the middle as this will look lovely with lower cut necklines on tops and dresses, and if you want to go all High School Musical ...
