Polyvore- Autumn/fall outfit!

Welcome to my latest obsession Polyvore, its the worlds largest online styling community ranging from fashion, beauty and home. Its such a great platform you can put together looks (known as sets), shop or just gather inspiration. Its so easy to use and operate both on a PC and via the mobile app, I have challenged myself to create as many 'sets' as possible based on Autumn pieces I already have in my wardrobe.

  Below is one of my Autumn inspired looks, I put this look together based on the fact that I have tan over the knee boots, which I'm dying to wear but its still quite warm in London.
How gorgeous are those boots, I'm ever so slightly obsessed with them. And a girl can dream about that Celine bag right. That's what I love about Polyvore it mixes high street and designer with ease.

The Lip Product Addict Tag

Hi there,

Today's post is all about the makeup we use on our lips. Looking through my makeup collection I realised I am lip product addict, as most of my makeup collection consists of lipsticks, lipgloss, lip stains and other lip products.

                     

There are eight questions in this tag, so let's get started:

1. Favourite balm/treatment:

    Elf conditioning lip balm is amazing it relieves and soothes dry lips whilst providing a hint of colour. I love this product especially in the autumn winter months as your lips tend to need a bit more tender loving care.

2. Best eye catching red: 

     It has to be the classic and iconic MAC Ruby Woo. This is the first lipstick I purchased from MAC, it's matte and suits all skin tones. I just love the feeling it gives you, I put it on and immediately feel amazing.

3. Best luxury & drugstore: 

    The Yves Saint Laurent Volupte shine lipsticks are amazing, they are long lasting, moisturising and conditioning and leave you with soft kissable lips.The packaging is luxurious and sooo pretty, if you ever want to treat yourself, buy one of these babies.

The Sleek lipstick in Succumb is my absolute favourite lipstick, I love nudes and thats pretty much what I have on my lips 80% of the time. For me this is the perfect my lips but better lip colour, its a sheen finish, moisturising and long lasting.

4. Best MAC lipstick: Bad Girl Riri is a limited edition, matte, browny pink shade. I have been wearing this lipstick all summer long. 

5. The most disappointing: Sleek Matte Me, these are so drying and flaky, even with two and three layers of application you don't have great colour payoff, I have really tried to love these, but they are horrendous.

6. Liner- yes or no:  

    Yes, I am a big fan of liner, I thinks it's an absolute necessity when wearing pinks, nudes and reds.

7. Best gloss:  Elf Glossy Gloss are amazing long lasting, shiny moisturising glosses- my favourite shades are Muted Mauve, Funky Fuschsia and Sparkling Wine.

8. Something extra: Having soft, smooth lips before applying lip products is a must, so I use Lush's Bubblegum lip scrub to gently exfoliate my lips, oh and its edible and tastes of bubble gum what more can a girl ask for.


I really enjoyed doing this tag, what are some of your favourite lip products ? You could comment below or leave a link to your blog if you have already done this tag.

Thanks for reading.

Always Black and White

Hi guys, I'm back.....sorry for the little break, I now have a better camera which means that my picture quality on the blog will be improve. I have so many great things planned, I cant wait to share them.

The day after I recieved the camera I got dressed up to take a few pictures, when I say few, I really mean alot, because we (myself and my photographer, my bf) got carried away. It was so much fun taking these pictures, I have lost a couple of pounds recently so I felt a bit more comfortable in front of the camera.

The weather in London has been a bit strange, just when we thought Autumn was just around the corner it seems like Summer is not ready to leave us yet. The weather is still quite warm, I'm not complaining because I love Summer but I'm really looking forward to Autumn fashion, but hey that's another post.
