Where did 2014 go?

Surely I'm not the only person who feels as though they have I've slept for to long and ended up at New Years Eve? I mean, i still feel excited for Christmas..

My family and i went away on a surprise holiday over the Christmas period and only just got home today. Again, i cant believe after all the anticipation, its already over. We did a 2 short nights of touristy attractions in Sydney before jumping onto a cruise. It was lovely to sit back and relax with no mobile reception, no call, texts or internet meant some quality family time.

So, my lovelies, here's to the year that was and the year that is to come. May it bring you the peace, love and happiness you deserve and that you spend tonight with those that mean most to you.

Thank you for your support and cant wait to tell you all about my celebrations tonight!

Midweek Lunch Date

Today was a lunch date with my gal pal Maddie. My outfit was altered a million times because Melbourne couldn't decide if it wanted to be summer or winter.

I went with a Cotton On scallop tank in cash blue and Uniqlo legging jeans, seriously the best jeans I have ever owned! They are so tight and fitted and even after washes they have not faded. My Bardot waterfall jacket with leather trim and zip details was also a must, it has been a go to jacket for a while now.

What jacket do you love when winter makes an appearance? xx

Hair care loving

Recently I got my year old ombre revamed and I am now devited to giving it some TLC.

My creamy blonde ends can get thirsty so i use a purple shampoo and condition from an Australian company Marc Daniels to not only tone it to maintain the perfect colour but hydrate it with the blue cypress with which it is infused with. 

Now depending on how my week has been (have i straightened it/used product or has my natural hair cooperated?) it determines what treatment i use. 

Hair & Me is actually produced by my lovely hairdresser which is COMPLETELY natural, which i absolutely love! This treatment is used before the shower and sits in a top knot for 40 minutes. The only downside to this product is that with it being oil based i never know if i have used too much or not enough! 

On the other hand, the Dove Heat Defence is an after conditioning treatment and brushing my long hair is a breeze afterwards and my ends are beautiful. 

Let me know what products you are loving at the moment darlings xx 

Im back!!

Hello my lovelies, 

Im so sorry for the disappearing act! Like i have previously mentioned my life has been a crazy rollercoster the last few months but it is finally settling down and im finding my happiness again. 

I feel like informing you about something personal but i think it does need more attention. During my time away i was diagnosed with Scoliosis. Scoli-what? 

The photo above shows a 30 degree  curvature in my spine! What?! Crazy right?! Im lucky enough that unless you concentrate on my walk/hips you cant notice that i am any different, which means i can go back to enjoying fashion and beauty without any issues.

So the main thing is, IM BACK! And cant wait to share the things i am loving with you :)

Lipsticks Of The Week

Hello everybody!

Again, i'd just like to apologise for my lack of posting but i am slowly getting back on track.

So, today's post is my lipsticks of the week! And yes, week. I have literally been rotating through each lipstick for the last couple of weeks and i can not get enough of them.

As you can see, they are mainly drugstore/Priceline bought, except for the Lipstick Queen which was a little more pricey.

Moving left to right:
L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche 374 Intense Plum 
I absolutely love this colour and texture. As the cover suggests it is best suited to Brunettes and it does bring out my darker features. With the plum base i do have to be a bit selective with what outfit i match it with.

Maybelline New York ColourSensation 602 Beige Rose 
This is such a natural and shiny addition to the natural colour of my lips. I generally pop it on when my outfit is casual and it has been a major pick me up when my hair isn't cooperating, which does happen oftern.

Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate 07 
The best nude colour in my collection. Period. It is so beautiful, last's all day with only a few touch ups and it complements my olive skin tone perfectly. The colour is a lot more intense then the Maybelline nude and has more of a pink undertone.

Lipstick Queen by Poppy Wine Sinner 
My favourite colour for the evening! It is more of a matte shade but it doesn't dry out my lips which is exactly what you want and because it is more of a red base it tends to match with a lot of my outfits.
