July Wish List.

Although I am writing this post on a very rainy day in England I thought I would have a browse and so what new things I am wishing someone will magically add to my wardrobe this month.

 

 

 -  Shirt Dress -  Snake Print Gladiator Sandals -  Pinafore Overlay Summer Dress -  MAC Sweet & Sour Lipstick - Yellow Rain Mac -  Midnight Leather Boots -  Spike Front to Back Earrings   -  Drape Front Blouse -  Disc Bracelet - MAC Only in Florida Nail Varnish -  Khaki Sleeveless Jacket -  Duffel Bag -  Blue Ripped Jeans -

 

 Although it is 'summer' in the UK most of the shops have now started to display their A/W collections as you can tell with these colours. But I think these pieces tie in well with summer also. Plus who doesn't love a purchase which they can wear in any season and get their moneys worth. Another point which I must highlight after linking all of these items is how much I have been currently loving Top Shop the majority of  this wish list is made up from here.

 

My major faves from this wish list are the yellow mac from TS which I think is going to be my next purchase - its perfect for those rainy summer days and will be a perfect investment for Autumn, also the sweet & sour lipstick from MAC, which is a gorgeous orange colour for summer evenings. My last fave is the shirt dress from River Island as its a light material so good for when the sun does decide to arrive plus it can be dressed up or dressed down so I think it is a versatile summer piece.

 

P.S. What are you adding to your wardrobe for this month?

My June Faves.

I can't quite believe how quick June went by. Time just goes so fast without you realising.

 

 

 This is my first 'Faves' post and I think at the end of each month along with talking about some products that I have enjoyed in the past month I will also talk about a book that I have been enjoying and/or a film/TV programme also.
 

 

An old fave of mine to start of with is the Bare Minerals Foundation powder - I absolutely love and unfortunately have also ran out of this pure gold dust. It is a more expensive foundation, but it is not to heavy on the skin and gives a more natural look than liquid foundations and a pot lasts for ages. It is an effortless quick fix foundation and I shall definitely be purchasing a new pot of this!

 

Pricey BUT worth it! Yankee Candles. I love love love them. Every single one smells like heaven in a bottle and at the moment I am burning through the strawberry buttercream one. It smells delicious and is a perfect summer smell to fill a room. Do you have any recommendations on what scent to buy next?

 

The body shop Coconut Body Butter is another June fave. It does wonders for your skin, is not to shiny and isn't sticky and it leaves your skin smelling wonderful. Also perfect for summer as it leaves your skin feeling smooth and ready for whatever a summer day brings.

 

Another make-up purchase which I am currently loving is the new L'Oreal Miss Manga Punky eye mascara. It is a bold look eye-wise and is not for everyone, but I love how it makes your eye lashes stand out and makes your eyes 'pop'. It possibly isn't an everyday mascara, But definitely is a good purchase for a weekend statement and for something with a bit of a difference.

 

 

Lastly on the make-up front the Barry M Brow Kit is a massive one for me I have purchased and re-purchased this and I absolutely love it! It is a make-up must have for me. I just like the idea of a wax to shape your brows and then the power to define them and you use as little or as much as you want and I also comes in a little compact case which is handy to just pop in your bag. 

 

On the book front I have started a book from my summer reading list called 'Not that Kind of Girl' and so far so good. It is an empowering book for girls and I feel it takes a soft but truthful approach to feminism and being a young female adult in this ever changing world. But I have only just began to read so the judgement is still out until it is completely finished. But I shall let you know how it goes.

 

 

And lastly on the TV/Film front. Pretty Little Liars is a massive June fave. I am to the point where I am almost fed up of guessing who 'A' is, paranoia and questionability about everyone on the show as reached an all time high and at this point I don't even have a suspect in mind for who 'A' is. Am I 'A'? Are you 'A'? But I shall see if through and hopefully eventually all will be revealed. Who do you think 'A' is (if you watch PLL of course)?

P.S. What have been your June faves?

J'adore Paris.

Paris in one word. Gorgeous.

 

I have had the best four days away ever! But to save this post from being a very long one (has it is hard to fit the whole of what I did in this gorgeous city into one post), I will keep it short and snappy.

 

1. Firstly the weather was amazing. Like 40 degrees amazing with brilliantly blue skies. 
2. The Eiffel Tower is just WOW. It is a lot bigger than I expected it to be. And waiting till the sunsets behind it on the grass at night with 100's of other people whilst waiting for it to sparkle is a memory I will never forget. It was magical.
3.  Disney Land. A place were it is very hard to not be happy. Meeting princesses. Seeing Olaf. Sleeping beauty's castle. Peter Pan. Having a Frozen sing along. Meeting Tiger. Amazing. 
4.  The gorgeous buildings around Paris. Around every corner you can find a building that is old and grand. Even more prettier at night when the street are lit up. 
5. Soaking in the spectacular Cathedrals. Notre Dame and it's very long history. The Sacre Coeur and it's peacefulness, and it's view which is simply overwhelming. 
6. The Arche De Triumph. Although it is almost impossible to actually get under it due to the 100's of cars, it is a place that oozes history. Also the massively long street leading up to it with its variety of Shops from H & M to Louis Vuitton.
7.  
     Lastly, just everything about Paris, the atmosphere, the metro/RER trips that were took daily, the tea time rush, the tourists, the sun, the attractions, the beauty of the place, Paris at night, Everything.

 

I have put this post into a list of things because I could probably sit here all night and write about how spectacular Paris was, I am even running out of words to describe it at this point. It was everything and more and I have created memories that will last a lifetime and I am so glad I got to do this with one of my best friends.

 

The only downside was that we didn't spend long enough time there and we would visit one place spend a short time there and move on to the next place. But we did visit all the main bits of Paris and saw everything we wanted to.

 

A final note on this from me is I highly recommend visiting Paris. It is a Magical place. And I am glad I can tick it off my bucket list.

P.S. Where else in Europe would you recommend visiting? Paris has inspired me to plan a possible inter-railing trip in the future, I think I have caught the 'need to travel' bug. Also I am sorry for the late post due to obvious reasons.
