Peel Off Deep Sea Face Mask | BEAUTY


Hello!

"if you find you have an issue with large pores, with regular use ...you will see them become smaller"

I love a good face mask. You'd think that they're just for slumber parties and to make you feel like you're a bit of an alien - who knew they actually help the skin?! *shock, horror*

Chanel No 5 : POTW


Hello!


Perfumes are the total go-to gift, and no wonder this is one we receive the most. I knew it was coming but what I didn't expect was Chanel. The beautiful packaging, the significance of the iconic brand and the scent that is everlasting, as it works with all age groups, is what got me so excited about it! 


The thing with Chanel fragrances is that many people think it's for the older generation. I disagree, and I do acknowledge that people say I'm 'mature' for my age, but Chanel fragrance is just eternal.


Let's just take a moment to see the beauty of it. It's just so gorgeous (and photogenic, may I add ;) ). The fragrance is quite musky. Seeing as florals are seen to be for the younger generation, and this is not that, it may be the reason for why it's classed as for the elder generation. Either way, I love a bit of vanilla muskiness.


Though I don't see it as an everyday fragrance, unlike this one, it is one for special occasions, and one full of memories.

Tell me, what is your favourite 'high end' fragrance, saved for the special occasions?

LBD Dream Date Style Challenge ft. DailyLook : FASHION


Hello!

Beautysets - LBD Dream Date Style Challenge
"accessorising the dress with nude shoes, a nude bag and a nude blazer was something 'so me'."

I come to you with a fashion post today. I was inspired by DailyLook’s Little Black Dress ‘LBD’ Dream Date Style Challenge, where you create a style set on what you’d wear on your, well, ‘dream date’. I was able to look through all of their little black dresses here to choose my favourite.

DailyLook has some pretty dresses and this is the one that stood out to me. The elegant cut means it's not very revealing as it goes right to the top. The lace detail creates an elegant, girly vibe. I am a huge fan of nude, definitely my go-to shade. So, accessorising the dress with nude shoes, a nude bag and a nude blazer was something 'so me'.  Finally, I am a huge fan of gold, preferring it over silver (which explains my gold iPhone 6), so the dainty, simple gold necklace was what I chose.

Overall, a great outfit that's not too dressy but has nice details. Perfect for a more dressy cinema trip, an evening at a restaurant or even switching up the shoes for flats and you're even fit to go for a walk near the Thames.

So, tell me, do you have any go-to colour combinations for outfits?

The Cutest Wellies Ever: POTW


Hello! 

"they lack the cheesy quality that wellies often have"

With the rain pouring down, it's not fun wearing suede shoes (reference to this post, these shoes are ruined now :( ). So to keep it appropriate for the weather, it was time to go out and buy new shoes. A reason to shop? Yes, please!

" Perfect for this time of year, a colour that will go with everything and at £10, you can't go wrong! "

Already being a fan of wellies meant these were something I'd buy - but the ultimate reason why I went for them is because they lack the cheesy quality that wellies often have. At the same time, the bow adds a girly touch without making the shoe look tacky. Another positive about them, is that the short, ankle-bootie height means these are so easy to put on and take off - who really wants to spend 10 minutes putting shoes on?!

"keep it appropriate for the weather"

Overall, a great find from none other than Primark. I swear, I rarely go there but when I do, there is always something that catches my eye! Perfect for this time of year, a colour that will go with everything and at £10, you can't go wrong!

Are you a fan of wellies?

NOTD: Sparkles in the Dark

Hello!

Yet another NOTD is written on this blog, which is not long after my last one here. I had a (short) phase whereby I wasn't feeling very up for painting my nails but now I am more into it again! To be honest, I love wearing darker colours on my nails, and the winter means it is appropriate to do so, hereby bringing todays nail post!


I absolutely love the gold on black.


The gold Barry M topcoat looks amazing on many shades...


...and adds a bit of glamour!


What shade are you nailing at the moment?
