Aromatique fantastique

Aromatique fantastique

It’s taken me almost a year, but I’ve finally managed to work my way through a tube of Aesop’s Resurrection hand balm. Like any beauty product which finds itself tucked away in the folds of my handbag, it has been very well loved, if not occasionally forgotten – it can be a black hole in there occasionally. I gave up on goals of having skin as soft as the Aesop Sales Assistants a long time ago, although I think if I were more vigilant with the hand balm application, I’d be at least half way there. Not all of us…

Ellery venus flare shift dress, Celine trio in lavender, Charlotte Olympia panda flats, Kate Spade knot bracelet I’ve been sitting on these photos for a while now; and it’s really hard to say why I’ve waited so long to post them. But it’d be safe to say that they just got a little lost once the great engine of life kicked into gear this past month or so. This year – 2015 – has been a year of simplification in every sense.

I’m sure I’ve mentioned this on the odd occasion before, but part of the reason it took me such. a. long. time to get into make-up is because I’ve struggled with eczema and dermatitis for the last ten years or so. Over the last few months I’ve developed a bit of redness on my face – an issue I’d never struggled with previously –…

Always planning

Always planning

image source: one | two | three Luke and I have pretty much dived into wedding planning head first, and it’s not until you start planning your own that you begin to realise how much goes into it. Thankfully, we still have quite a lot of time ahead of us (no harm in getting a little head start!), but as I see it, there’s no time like the present. So while I’m busy deciding on things like venue, menu and table settings (amongst other things), at least there’s one thing I know I’m set on – aside from the dress,…
