Charmed, I'm Sure

 I have always been a huge fan of bracelets, bangles and any other sort of jewellery that can go around my wrists as they just really tickle my pickle ha! I like to jazz up a plain outfit with something colourful, sparkly and different and I seem to have accumulated a vast amount wrist jewellery. 
My favourite bracelet has to be my LoveLinks charm bracelet. At first I thought that it was just an exact copy of the Pandora charm bracelets, without the extortionate price tag, and in some ways I was right, but the main difference is that there is a wider range of charms for LoveLinks bracelets than Pandora bracelets. This pleases me very much as I can make my bracelet look exactly the way I want it.







I absolutely adore the little frog charm as frogs are my favourite animal and I think it's super cute! You can find the LoveLinks website HERE.

Does anyone else own a LoveLinks Bracelet? Do you love it as much as I do?

Elizabeth Arden Favourites

I was introduced to Elizabeth Arden a while back by my lovely friend Amy, I had always been an Estee Lauder girl at heart and was, to be honest, a little dubious to try Elizabeth Arden Cosmetics as the name sounded grannyish to me and I had never really looked at any of their collections.
I absolutely adore the packaging, its chic and almost has a vintage look and the quality of the products are pretty much perfect. Somehow a vast amount of products have ended up in my make up collection and I don't how how haha!



 This Color Intrigue Quad is A.mazing, the shadows are sooo pigmented, easy to blend and are perfect for a natural eye. The packaging is sleek and compact with a decent sized mirror which is perfect to bring in your handbag



 This is my go to blush at the present. I'm a huge fan of mineral make up and this blush is just perfect for my skin tone and a small amount really brightens up my complexion. It's a nice warm shade and the packaging is what I would call granny chic which is perfect for me.
If you've been reading my blog for a little while you will have seen me mention this lipstick before. It is a peachy orange (I'm awful at describing colours) with iridescent glitter. It gives a subtle sheen to the lips which makes it perfect for day time and I have to say this is my favourite purchase from Elizabeth Arden.

Do you have any favourites from Elizabeth Arden? 

P.S Sorry for my lack of posts yet again I have been horrendously busy with work and everything else. Hope you all have a wonderous week

Estee Lauder Lipsticks


You may, or may not know (or care ha) that I LOVE lipsticks. Now as a student I tend to have very little money, but one of my guilty pleasures, and something I like to splash out on, are Estee Lauder Pure Colour Lipsticks!! They are very pricey at £18 a go, some may think this is an obscene amount of money to spend on one lipstick but I find that the product itself justifies spending that much money. Appearance wise, they come in solid, shiny golden tubes which makes them sleek,sturdy and sophisticated. They have a flat bottom, which makes them easy to store standing upright and the Estee Lauder logo is embossed on the top of the lid. The pigmentation of the lipsticks are A.mazing and the colour is longlasting (what more can you want from a lipstick?). They are non drying and don't leave your lips feeling like they have a lot of product on! The finish is either a shimmer or a creme finish which suits either a natural look or an evening look. I have 7 shades from the Pure Colour Long Lasting range and two of them (Fig and Candy) are in my favourite lipsticks post which you can find here.

Left to Right: Barely Nude, Candy Shimmer, Rose Tea, Exotic Orchid, Candy, Tiger Eye,  Fig



Barely Nude With Flash


Barely Nude is my newest edition to my collection, therefore I felt it needed an individual photo to show how beautiful it is!!I think Melon Shimmer and Vanilla truffle Creme will be making their way into my collection very soon!

 If you love lipsticks like me and want to splurge on a good quality, high-end lipstick, then I would highly  recommend any Estee Lauder Pure Colour Lipstick as they are pretty much perfect in every way! ♥.

P.S  
I would like to say a big thank you to Emma from Eyeshadow and Glitter for awarding me the Versatile Blogger Award. To be honest I wasn't too sure what it was but I'm really grateful for it and really appreciate that she took the time to award it to me 
♥.
