I have been buying a lot recently, more than I should but I blame going on holiday for my unecessary impulse purchases. There's a handful of things I have reached for constantly during the end of July and first half of August. Keep reading to see what I have been obsessed with recently.


+ Kiko hydra-gloss '21' 
I have wanted a coloured gloss for the longest time, but one that actually lasts. Kiko have a wide range of lip stuff and I have used and loved a lot of their products and was not surprised when this one made the cut too. It's super glossy and pigmented too but I still apply a base colour first and then use this over the top.


+ Lightwash straight-legged jeans 'H&M' 
I love my straight-legged, 'mom' and oversized fit jeans, probably more than skinny jeans. They are extremely comfy and the light-wash, borderline acid wash, jeans are a little different. Ideal for the summer but can be worn during the colder months too.

+ Crystal gold bracelet 'Naina Barcelona' 
This is one of the nicest bracelets I have ever bought from being abroad, the upside it was only 7 euros but the downside is it will probably discolour in time. I love layering it with my watch and other bracelets.


+ Blending brushes 'Qivange' 
I needed some new eye brushes for the wedding and so naturally I used Amazon prime and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and the quantity considering the price. They are really fluffy and wash incredibly well.


+ Contrast stitch over-shirt 'H&M' 
I like this so much I bought it in Khaki too, both of these can be styled in so many ways. I've worn it as a shirt, a dress and a jacket too. They're great for layering and go perfectly with the rest of my wardrobe.

This Spring/Summer 19 season has been all about accessorising and quite frankly I am here for it! The whole pearl bags, mini bags, over the top beaded hair pins, tortoise-shell everything and cool shades. I have been accumulating a few bits myself and will share the pieces I have been wearing with my outfits.

From going on holiday to Italy to being stuck at home stressfully revising for my second year law exams. Although this year I feel a little more content with exam season because making notes throughout the semester really saved my ass. Yet here I am finishing series and starting new ones on Netflix, will I ever learn? Regardless, here's a handful of favourites I have been loving towards the end of March and the start of April.



+ Gold shell necklaces

I have seen this trend creeping into this S/S with last years with gold shell choker trend. There is something so effortlessly beautiful about shell jewellery, especially with gold accents. There is a whole range of shell necklaces, bracelets and earrings on the highstreet. I love layering these with my gold coin necklaces from Germany. A trend that is definitely going to be loved this summer!


+ Crystal stacking bracelets

I picked these up from a little shop in Venice and they were super cheap but look really good paired with a few other bracelets and a watch. The neon yellow has to be my favourite. They look incredible with a tan and are not leaving my wrists anytime soon.


+ Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow kit 'sundipped' 

Liquid highlighters are my go-to for warmer weather but for when I want a little extra glow I have been reaching for this again. Usually I just swirl a little Laura Geller 'gilded honey' on my cheekbones but I have rediscovered my love for this glow kit!


+ The Ordinary 'aha' mask

My skin has been really bad recently because of bad eating habits, that time of the month and well exam stress. I love using this when I need my skin to restore itself and get rid of any dead skin as it is a chemical exfoliant/ peel mask. As instructed on the bottle this is a super quick mask, any longer than 10 minutes and it will start to tingle.
