Price & Size

AU$82 for 35ml

Pros

♥ Looks good in photos
♥ Long lasting

Cons

♥ It's expensive
♥ It looks cakey
♥ It settled into fine lines
♥ It accentuates pores

Would I buy it again?

No I hate it. I wish I loved it as soooo many people rave about it but it just didn't do my skin any favours. It accentuated my pores and wrinkles and made my skin look super cakey (even if I applied the smallest amount).

If I were you I’d buy one of these foundations instead..

♥ Chanel Aqua Vitalumiere Foundation (AU$56)
♥ Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation (AU$32)

All Stars

One of my fave collections to come out of NY fashion week, was Rebecca Minkoff's -













I think that white dress is to-die-for and can't get enough of the snakeskin biker jacket.

Which collection did you like most?

This = Love

Wrangler denim shirt, About a girl skirt, Betts wedges, Mulberry bag,
Nicole by OPI in Prized Possession Purple



So ecstatic, I picked up this mulberry bag while op shopping yesterday for.. drum roll please.. $25! Can you believe it? Talk about a bargain. I absolutely love it! It looks and feels real but who knows it's probably a fake.. even a fake is worth a few hundred though so I'm still cheering!

I'm completely addicted to the hunger games at the moment and have been enjoying reading it in the sun over the weekend. I'm almost finished and will definitely be buying the second book of the series. I would highly recommend reading it if you haven't already.

Tomorrow's my first day in my new job (eep!). I'm super nervous but excited at the same time. Wish me luck!

PS. I'm now on twitter, chictopia & lookbook so come find me (I'm feeling a little lonely out there haha)

Lust have it box #2

Wooah sample box overload! I got my second lust have it box yesterday..









It came with samples of..

Lancome hypnose doll eyes mascara
Pure Fiji coconut milk shower gel
Kerastase elixir Ultime hair serum
Urban Rituelle flourish organics hand cream
Nicole by OPI ultimate trend setter's lacquer

I'm super excited to try all these products!

My favourite product from the last lust have it box was surprisingly the Burts Bees lemon butter cuticle cream.



I've never used a cuticle cream before but wow this stuff made my nails look and feel so much better. It smells delish too, which is a bonus!

Hmm I wonder which product I'll like most from this box..

Beauty box #1

I got my first beauty box today!









It came with samples of..

Yves Saint Laurent beauty sleep
Marc Jacobs oh! lola!
Sally Hansen everyday strength medium nail file
Playboy play is spicy body spray
Shu Uemura high performance balancing cleansing oil

I'm most excited to try Yves Saint Laurent's beauty sleep but I'll let you know next month what my favourite product was :)

In a few months, I'll also be comparing the "beauty box" with the "lust have it" subscription. So stay tuned to find out which subscription I think is the better choice and why..

Mousetrap Heart

I am DYING to go shoe shopping!

I'm hanging out for payday so I can buy a new pair or two and eyeing off these puppies in the meantime..

Featuring Tony Bianco Kortina, Tony Bianco Precious, SE Boutique Ake Wedge Bootie, Miu Miu Crisscross Platform, Steve Madden Bellahh Heels

Which pair do you like most?

Never be the same without you..

Dress from Felt, Thrifted cardi, Parliament necklace, Betts shoes, OPI Scull & Glossbones



This was the outfit I wore to high-tea on saturday, not an overly exciting outfit just something simple and girly. I also curled my hair with a GHD for the first time after many failed attempts in the past, so I was quite proud of myself haha.

I'm actually feeling a bit blah today, my skin's had a reaction to something and I'm breaking out like crazy :( I'm getting frustrated as well cause I can't work out which product it is. Hopefully I'll figure it out soon so my skin can go back to normal and I can start feeling less self-conscious.

I've convinced rob to do a box circuit class with me tomorrow (in my attempt to lose some weight before the wedding). The class starts at 6am which means an early night for me tonight! Yep I'm heading to bed and it's only 8.30pm haha.

Goodnight and sweet dreams all

High Tea

I had so much fun yesterday at my friend Karlie's birthday high tea. Everyone brought delicious food to share and we all ate and drank tea in the beautiful sunshine. Mmmm it was so nice.

I'm so going to steal this idea and do it for my birthday next year! :)
