November Favourites

The products I’m obsessed with this month are nothing short of amazing.

Can anyone else believe that it’s November? I feel like we’ve fast forwarded through 2016 and it’s almost time for Christmas gifting and hot chocolate. Since tis almost the season for gifting and shine, I have a feeling that my November favourites are about to become your November favourites. From the best highlighter I’ve ever used, to the prettiest scrunchies for your hair, scroll down for some early cheer and merriment! 

#1

Chantecaille Liquid Lumiére

I’m all about the natural beauty look – my daily routine is so simple and to the point but is always a no fail situation. I’ve recently started using this Chantecaille Liquid Lumiére highlighter and I have to say it is the best highlighter I’ve used by far. It’s got a strong shine so you don’t need too much of it but it also blends beautifully and looks incredibly natural.

By Terry
Liquid Blush

I’m a huge fan of liquid blush because I find that it appears more natural on the skin and is much easier to manage and manipulate. My current favourite is this gorgeous By Terry liquid blush. It comes in three different shades (I obviously went for the bright pink!) and has a slightly glossy finish on the skin. Perfect for rosy cheeks all winter long.

Monica Vinader Bangles

If you’ve been reading carefully you will know that I love beautiful jewellery. I always find that an outfit is incomplete without something and I usually always have something on my wrists. My most recent purchase were these two Monica Vinader bangles. I love the minimal shape and the way they look stacked on the wrists! They really are the perfect accessory for everyday! (Plus, pro tip, they make stunning Christmas presents… or even birthday presents.. or just a present to yourself)

Clarins Fix Make Up Spray

One of the biggest make up mistakes is when your makeup is too cakey and just isn’t set properly. If you’ve ever been guilty of doing that, and I know I have, I find that one of the best ways to make sure that A. your make up is set perfectly, B. it lasts all night looonngg, and C. it looks flawless and natural, is to use this Clarins spray. A couple of spritz’s after your make up routine is complete and you will wonder why you didn’t know about this spray before.

Mille Saisons Silk Hair Ties

One of the most luxurious fabrics in the world is silk (A little insight into where ‘The Silk Sneaker’ comes from!) and it’s also one of the best fabrics for your hair and skin. Silk helps battle frizz, keeps your hair cleaner and styled for longer, and is gentle on your skin. So we all know that everyone wants a silk pillowcase, but I also swear by using silk scrunchies in my hair! If it’s good for my hair, I’m on board. It’s just a perk that they come in the most gorgeous colours too.

So if you’re in the gifting mood already, or just ready for a little make up haul, give any of my November favourites a try and you’ll be happy all month long. What are your current favourites?

Colour of the Month: Bubblegum Pink

At one point or another, you thought this was your favourite colour. Let’s bring that back

We’ve seen it on the Gucci ‘it’ bag of the season, it’s all over our Pinterest boards and I”m sure you’ve all attempted to recreate the infamous tumblr photo, Girl with Giant Bubblegum Bubble. If you haven’t guessed yet, this month’s colour of the month is none other than the gorgeous, Bubblegum Pink. Although it seems like one of the most overwhelming shades of pink, bringing to mind Gretchen Weiner/Regina George’s whole wardrobe, I guarantee its one you can incorporate into your next look without looking like a Mean Girl.  So other than the obvious of Pink and White  & Pink and Black, why not try one of the se combinations below? If you’re feeling very daring,  Pink also featured in my firstColour of the Month with another bold colour! If not, scroll down!

Pink + Blue

A stellar combination that you really can’t go wrong with. I know it may seem strange, but these two colours, regardless of the shade of blue, go fabulously together!

It may seem daring but I’ve sported it myself! Check out my pink and red look!

Khaki is a neutral so of course pink would work!

Zermatt Travel Diary

Sometimes you just need to switch off, take a train up to a mountain town and relax. This is exactly what my little trip to Zermatt was about! Spending time with the people I love while mentally rejuvenating so that I could get back in touch with my balance and come back to producing some amazing content.

We took the most scenic train ride up to the mountains. I had my very own ‘Girl On the Train’ Moment, the fashion version of course. I was wearing a Helmut Lang Sweater, Topshop tights, Louis Vuitton Boots and a Valentino Scarf.

We got to explore the town a bit. I loved that the cute windows on the buildings matched my outfit!

I opted for mountain cozy for this look with an ASOS Sweater, Zara pants and my Louis Vuitton boots.

We also discovered the coolest sunglasses store, Mykita! All the sunglasses were limited edition and after much deliberation over which pair exactly, I got one!

Of course, everywhere you looked the view was beyond beautiful! We trekked up a bit to go to one of the best restaurants in Zermatt, Chez Vrony
