January Beauty Edit

Happy Monday everyone! I thought I’d kick off the week by sharing my January beauty edit. I last wrapped things up in November, so I’ve got quite a few products to talk through today – lots of skincare in particular, that I’ve been trialling over the last two months.

My Entire Wardrobe

My Entire Wardrobe

Happy Friday everyone! Today, I wanted to give you a real look at my entire wardrobe. 2019 is the year that I’m really trying to stay true to my personal style, and enjoy what I have, so I wanted to do this exercise to visually document my closet, and get a real eye for what I’m actually drawn to. There probably aren’t too many surprises to the contents (except that there’s probably more than you think…!), as I focus more on neutrals than colour, and I’ve really found myself going back to basics with my style. So, let’s dive into…
