These are a few of my favourite things...

Is it just me or is this year zooming past so fast?? I am already laying out a few of my favourite things of the month once again!

MAKEUP



This Mac paintpot in Groundwork (a matte taupe-y brown shade) is the perfect lazy girls alternative to putting on eye shadow in the morning! No need to fuss around with powders & brushes, just smudge this onto your lid and blend out with your finger, add mascara and BOOM ready to face the day!


NAILS


After eyeing up the different nail polishes on offer in boots I came across these Maybelline super stay polishes (which I ended buying in a nice selection of colours!). This Rosy nude colour is the perfect 'Autumnal pink'.. not too barbie but still pretty. The formula of the polishes is really lovely and thick plus it stays on a long time before chipping compared to similar ones from other brands.

FRAGRANCE



Oookay, this actually smells so good. I can't explain scents very well at all but it is the perfect fresh but still autumn/winter-y smell! It really does remind me of the British country air.. mmm... just go smell it ok? Ok.

WEAR


I recently received these stunning boots from Chatham, they are the best Chelsea boots I have ever owned! More to come on these in a later post so that's all I shall say for now!

Is it Already Goodbye?

Ok.. so bear with me here but..I'm kind of ready to say goodbye summer, hello autumn!... I'm kind of ready to pack my sandals away and dust of the ol' winter coat! There's a slight chill entering the air in London lately and I am actually pleasantly excited by it.. Sure I love summer and all the sea salt flavoured air, floaty sundresses and sandy socks that come with it.. but, as I feel a cooler breeze it makes me look forward to slipping on cosy jumpers and wooly socks!

With this in mind I thought I would do a post to show my Autumn wardrobe inspiration. I did one of these for Spring/Summer '14 and it went down a treat, so, without further ado...















It would appear that I like tartan, chunky knitwear, mini skirts, peter pan collars and pumps for Autumn 2014...  what a dream! I am already welcome crispy autumn leave, bonfire smells and conkers...

XXXXXX

LOVEEEEE

✿ ❀ ❁ Vintage Inspired ✿ ❀ ❁


Hey guys, just a quick 'personal style' post for you! :) 



This is what I wore the other day for a trip out shopping in the late Summer/ early Autumn sunshine! I thought the outfit was a little bit vintage looking hence my crafty cameo style photoshopping haha. The top is a little cropped t shirt style jumper from Topshop - it was a little bit pricey for what it is but I bought it with a gift card so I felt ok buying it because it is so pretty!! I think this thin knit in a t shirt cut looks so cute and 1950's style, I can't wait to wear it with a midi length a-line skirt now that its a bit chilly! I thought the crochet detail would really compliment this adorable lacy skirt I got for my birthday from my boyfriend's sister (thankyouuu!) I think it also has a nice vintage-y style to it and it reminds me of delicate petticoats *swoon* I added a pair of pearl earrings (again a gift, I'm such a lucky girl) to really top off the 50's look and trotted on my merry way :) 





Top - topshop
Skirt - h&m (gift)
Shoes - Primark
Earrings - unknown (gift)

Now that the cold winds are really starting to blow in London I think this is definitely the last of my pasty white pins you shall have to suffer until next year (cheers from all!) 

I am pretty excited to be piling on the layers and wearing Primark super cosy tights (have you tried these yet??!! SO COSY.. the packaging DOES NOT lie) and of course my (almost) favourite time of the year is approaching, Halloweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!!! What are you going to be for Halloween? I was thinking of doing some costume idea posts, what do you think?

LOVEEEEEEEEEEEE
