The Cutests Slippers You Ever Did See...

I was around town yesterday and happened to stumble across these fluffy wonders in Kmart - it was meant to be. I am a total sucker for anything cute, soft, animal themed and I guess a little garish? Haha I literally could not resist these, and for $10 how could you, a total bargain! I have currently got them on and they are the softest little things EVER, like walking on clouds!

Oh the small pleasures in life, eh? ;)

Today I Fell In Love With // 'Our Moment'

Yes, this is really happening. Now, I am partial to a bit of One Direction here and there (*i love them....a lot, oh gosh, OH MY) and I'm not going to lie I thought that the perfume would be a little 'meh' if that's even a describing word. But I was sooo pleasantly surprised when I finally got to have a whiff of this wee beaut. It is exactly what I look for in a perfume. Sweet and more on the light side - fresh and not too heavy on the floral notes. If I could, I would spray everything in my room with this scent, it is that nice and pleasant, it makes me want to die. After gravitating towards it in multiple stores, and spraying (drowning) myself with it I've found that it really reminds me of my very first favourite perfume 'Viva La Juicy' by Juicy Couture, and also 'Wonderstruck' by Taylor Swift. For me it's like a combination of the two with a third part that brings it all all together. All I have to say to end this post is that there is some serious budgeting happening to bring this bad boy home so I can bathe in it daily.

Please tell me I am not alone in this....hahah :)

MAC 'Candy Yum Yum'

WHOA PINK!!! I bought this lipstick on a bit of a whim as I'm very much a light pink lip kinda guurl, but I often see other girls wearing bright shades, and sometimes I want to be 'that girl'. So what did I do? I bought one of the brightest MAC lipsticks there is...ya know, just easing myself into it.
'Candy Yum Yum' is a matte formulation, which I think makes it that little more dramatic. The wearing power is also amazing, like hours and hours without having to top up, being a matte helps with staying power also. I do find that it is a little bit drying on the lips, while wearing it as well as after wards, but to be honest I really don't care as the colour is the most amazing cool-tone Barbie pink, literally the word Barbie sums up this lipstick for me in one word.
What I love the most about it is how wearable it is. Yes it's super bright, and the matte formulation enhances this, but you can totally get away with this during the day, paired with a casual tee and some jeans (YES really), it adds a bit of edge to your look. Of course it is also perfect for a bold-lip night look with a simple cat eye and a pair of cute heels. Honestly, I have never come across such a versatile and wearable bright lipstick, and I know we are going to be very close companions this summer.

Anyone else having a small affair with 'Candy Yum Yum', or have any other bright lip suggestions? :)

Oh Goodness...

Lashes of London: Bellz Lace Shift Dress

Now, I know it's all a bit cray-cray to be posting again within minutes...BUT I have just fallen for this dress and couldn't help but share (so shot me). Just casually browsing Lashes of London due to a wave of boredom and this total beauty popped up and literally my eyes widened, it was an "OMG I have to have that" moment laddies! This is one of the cutest, yet stylish dresses I've seen in a while. I'm obsessed with Gossip Girl and this reminded me so much of Blair Waldorf, and I love-love-love her style, classic but still fun and a bit quirky. The details on this dress are so nice, with the beaded, pearly peter pan collar and the lace frill to sinch in the waist (cute AND flattering, oh-la-la). I can just see this with my Katz and some Marc Jacobs earrings from my previous post and M.A.C Snob on the lips...Clearly I have a problem, I just can't help envisioning this beaut in my life.

I hope other people have moments like this! Haha :)

Angel Lips

M.A.C Angel, an oldie but a goodie, eh? I must say I am only just fully letting myself get immersed in the goodness that is M.A.C Cosmetics. I do have a few bits from them, including my beloved Mineralize Skinfinish in 'Soft and Gentle', which I wear every day, and a couple of blushes and lipsticks. I may not have a vast collection (...yet), but I can definitely see why their lipsticks are so damn popular. They are super creamy, easy to swipe across your lips and there is definitely a shade for everyone. While at the counter, I was tossing up between this one, 'Angel', and 'Creme Cup'. In the end I chose this one as it was slightly more pink than 'Creme Cup' and I find that shades with more of a pink tone suit me better, and I am sooo happy with the choice I made. LOVE-LOVE-LOVE it! It really is my perfect everyday lip, a subtle hint of colour to warm up the face but still very much neutral. It is a Frost formula so it is more on the sheer side, but the colour pay-off is buildable, and has a really pretty pearly sheen to it. Adore it!

I think my M.A.C lipstick collecting has officially begun! ;)
