Beauty Samples I’ve Tried and Liked

Beauty Samples I’ve Tried and Liked

I’ve talked quite a lot about beauty products I love, but today, I wanted to try something a little different.. I wanted to give a little love to the samples that I’ve tried, and liked – but just haven’t had the budget to buy the full size yet! I like to mix up my routine, and even with sensitive skin, I’m always up for trying out something new, whether it’s a foundation, a cleanser, or a blacker than black liquid eyeliner. It’s so easy to get caught up in the hype of the latest beauty launches, so I find that…

Paloma

Paloma

Acne Studios paloma silk dress (sleeveless version), J Crew fuzzy sweater, Valentino rockstud heels, Karen Walker x Benah sloane satchel I have a little confession to make… Not every single piece in my autumn capsule wardrobe has turned out to be quite as versatile as I’d anticipated. The bright orange-red floral dress which adds a pop of colour to an otherwise very neutral capsule? I haven’t even pulled it off the rack.

I’ve been using it the last couple of weeks and I’ve been really impressed with the quality.…

Everlane u-neck t-shirt, Dr Denim skinny jeans, Acne Studios leather jacket By far my favourite of the lot – when it comes to essentials, that is – is a well worn in leather jacket. It’s one of those quintessential pieces that I feel no woman should be without, whether you opt for a high quality faux leather, or the real deal. My love affair with the leather jacket started pretty early, at age 14, when I somehow managed to convince my mum to spend an arm and a leg on a beautiful cream leather jacket that was a good two…

Cost-Per-Wear: Fashion Math & Investing in your wardrobe

Cost-Per-Wear: Fashion Math & Investing in your wardrobe

Building on from my last post, I wanted to really hone in on, and place a focus on Cost Per Wear or CPW for short. If you’re the type that likes to place quality over quantity, or a looking to make that shift in your approach to your wardrobe, it’s likely that you’ve already stumbled across this concept. Splurging on a little luxury, whether it’s an accessory, a great handbag, a killer pair of shoes or a classic coat, can be enough to make even some of the most seasoned shoppers balk. It’s a serious investment, and when you’re dropping…
