Bobbi Brown Nectar & Nude

Are you feeling a little dull at the moment? Need a pick me up that the quick flashes of springtime sun aren't able to provide? Try these... 




They're part of the SS14 Nectar & Nude collection of products from Bobbi Brown that are perfect for giving your complexion a little lift. 

The key product here is the cream blush. On light and medium skin tones it'll give you a dewy flush that'll give the impression of spending an afternoon on the beach - you know that sort of orangey/pinky colour you go before the tan actually develops? Try putting a teeny bit around your hairline so it looks like the sun has caught you there too. 

On darker skin it'll pinch your cheeks and make you look all warm and healthy. You can use it on your lips as a tinted balm too.

Wang Replacement

I don't really remember a time when I wasn't lusting after something from Alexander Wang. Last year it was a £900 pair of boots (couldn't afford them obvs) and this year it's been these shorts...



£150 isn't too ridiculous is it?!? In fact I was planning on getting them this weekend but then I went to Topman last night and stumbled upon these...



£26. 

Suffice to say the Topman pair are now hanging in my wardrobe and the Wang ones have been swiftly removed from my Mr Porter wish list. Sorry Wang.

simple/sexy

With hardly any make up and a mannish shirt and shoes Scarlett Johansson still looks completely sexy in the latest issue of The Wall Street Journal... 



Just stunning.

Feeling Springy?

I was home alone and bored last night so I ended up shopping for girls stuff online and Warehouse was my website of choice on this occasion. I found two really different but equally lovely dresses and merchandised them up a bit for your perusal...


First off I took this really cute panelled shirt dress, added a pair of nude nubuck trainers from Common Projects and luxuriated the outfit with a pair of diamond studs from Tiffany. I'd go to watch my banker boyfriend play tennis in this ensemble myself. 

The next dress was more of an occasion frock...


I'd put a fierce pair of block heeled mules from Zara with this dress to de-prettify it a bit and finish the look off with a pile of yellow gold Cartier Love bangles - three would be ideal. Wear this to a Spring wedding or maybe a christening... Y'know, something religious. Definitely not a date outfit - too try hard.

Anyway, that was my Thursday night.




I ❤️ J Law

Yeah, I know you probably love her too but I'm kind of in the midst of a mild obsession here so let me have my moment please.

Up until a few weeks ago I liked her face, respected the way she recovers after tripping over a hem and had accepted the fact she was the current best dressed actress on the red carpet - helped by the fact she's got Raf on speed dial for all the Dior she could ever want...



(Look at her tho)

But then I actually watched her in a film. I started with The Hunger Games followed swiftly by Silver Linings Playbook and then last night I downloaded Catching Fire on Sky and was blown away.

Like I say... Obsessed.

Lindsay revisited

OMG a few more names from Lindsay's shag list have been revealed and it turns out she's also had a go on Ryan Phillippe!


All I need now is a Hemsworth to rear his head and I'm officially going ginger and developing a habit of some kind.

I wish I was Lindsay Lohan

It's been a week since Lindsay Lohan's list of celebrity conquests was revealed and I've finally decided on the one I'm most jealous about...


It has to be Jamie Dornan. 

Bitch did good.



If I were a girl

I wish the people that design shoes like this would stop trying to turn me into a cross dresser...

Then again I can't exactly blame them for this Wizard of Oz inspired outfit I wore back when I was a little'un...
