A/W Beauty Wishlist.

11 Oct 2013


At the moment I'm definitely lacking in the funds department, sigh :(. So I thought I'd share with you the things I've been lusting over, rather than things I have sitting pretty in my room. Maybe if I wish hard enough they might magically appear in my room.....!? Or maybe not :(

Up first is the beautiful Nars At First Sight eye and cheek palette. Every time Nars release an eye and cheek palette I always lust over it and never manage to claim it before its off the shelves again. Why must they be Limited Edition!? This one is exceptionally lovely with Deep Throat blush, Laguna Bronzer and four eyeshadows: All About Eve, Nouveau Monde, Bellissima and Cordura. With a slightly more muted palette I think it'd be brilliant for Autumn, buttt I'm going to stop looking at it now before I get too sad that its not mine.

Second is Mac's Amplified Creme lipstick Girl About Town. With two MAC lipsticks now in my collection I am slowly becoming obsessed with blog reviews and want more and more. I love this shade, and being more of a berry red I think it looks perfect for autumn. Definitely next on my lipstick list!

Third is the Vichy Idealia Life Serum which I first heard about over on Couture Girl. The serum is designed for skin exposed to the stresses of everyday life and claims to transform and protect your skin making it appear radiant and fresh. In autumn I find that my skin can start to look a little dull, so this product sounds like a god send to me to help me through the chillier months!

Fourth is the much talked about Oribe Dry Texturising Spray. Being on the pricey side, this is a definitely a product that will be staying out of my reach for a while. Although it is essentially a high end bottle of dry shampoo, I can't help but want to try it out. The added texture that it provides also sounds amazing! Not to mention that it doesn't spray that horrible grey colour like most dry shampoos.

Finally is the super pretty Benefit Rockateur Blush. I've never owned any powder products from Benefit, so when I saw this come onto the market my interest was instantly piqued. I'm a big fan of rose gold shaded blushes, and the pretty packaging is definitely swaying me too. Its not the cheapest blush out there, but it is Benefit and I think that makes up for it. ;)

So that's what I'm lusting over for the A/W season. What's on your wishlist at the moment?

Wishing for Autumn.

17 Aug 2013

Whenever someone asks what my favourite season is, I will always shout SUMMER! But, I have to confess the past few days I've begun longing for a fresh chilly breeze, wrapping up in a big jumper and the chance to make more excuses for a Starbucks than I already do. So with that in mind I thought I'd share with you a little A/W wishlist to sate my autumnal needs for now. (I might add, that it probably won't help in sating my endless shopping needs however!)



Why are pretty things so expensive?! I have literally wanted a OnePiece onesie FOREVER. (That pattern in particular being my favourite!) They just look like the most comfiest things alive, and my Primark onesie just isn't cutting it anymore. Unless I win the lottery anytime soon, I think my dream of a OnePiece is just that. 

The Topshop shoes may very well be the cutest shoes everrr. I realise they're not particularly autumnal, considering the cut outs - but they would definitely look cute with a pair of tights and I think that's enough to include them in my list. Being only £35 however, I don't think they'll be staying on the wishlist too long....

When it gets to coat season, a statement bag is the one thing that completes your look and Michael Kors knows it. Most girls have that one designer bag that they lust after forever, knowing full well that it's probably out of their reach. Mine is the Selma Satchel. At £315, its not anyway near the expense of some designer bags - but its definitely still way out of my reach. Fingers crossed on that lottery guys!! 

Ted Baker always seem to make the most beautiful yet classy dresses. This in particular being one of them. I can literally see myself prancing around town in it! But alas, I think this may be a few too many pounds for my pocket :( 

Lastly, the Topman jumper. I realise this jumper is aimed at men - but don't you think guys get all the best jumpers?? I'm in love with the colours in the pattern and being made from Lambs wool I don't doubt that it must be ridiculously comfy! If this doesn't end up in my wardrobe, I may just have to buy it for my boyfriend instead!

So there we have it, my current A/W wishlist! What are you lusting over at the moment?
