lips – stila colourbalm lipstick in olivia

lips – ysl rouge pur 19

the two tkmaxx finds were genuinely found in my local tkmaxx store. i was so happy to find these for less than £20! it’s just pot luck i guess when it comes to tkmaxx but they do have some really good things if you look hard. bimba & lola is a boutique that’s quite new to london which comes from spain. they do some really unique prints especially on scarfs.

icy cool polishes by nails inc.

icy cool finger tips are so elegant this season. we all love the rich, dark shades for a/w but nails inc. have got it on point with these cool tones of nail polishes.
these dusty pale tones are quite opaque, with two coats it gives a solid colour.
i’ve teamed them up with some classic feminine perfumes which just never go out of style in my opinion…

nail polishes – nails inc. – gel effect polish in pink, south bank, sheraton street, george street.
perfume – atkinsons fashion decrees,
argent provocateur, chanel no.19, jean paul gaultier classic.

time for a hairstyle change…

my inspiration…… carine roitfeld

percy & reed – texturising spray and finishing polish

babyliss pro tongs
http://www.babylisspro.co.uk

i’ve been inspired by the ever so cool carine roitfeld, the editor of french vogue. i recently watched the documentary “mademoiselle c” which was where my inspiration came from, in other words, i wanna look like her!
At 59 years old, she oozes sexiness in such a classy way, nothing is garish and she is the epitome of french chic.
so, i got on the phone to my good friend natsue who happens to be an amazing hairdresser as well as an amazing person and booked myself in for a hair cut. my last inspiration for a hairstyle change was carrie bradshaw (satc) when she cropped her hair shorter in a messy bob. she’s another style icon who i think has natural sex appeal, gosh i sound like a pervert…:s
i’ve used percy & reed’s texturising spray which is fantastic to create a bed head look! it’s a bit too good so i advise to use it sparingly on damp hair and then blast dry your hair, styling with the finishing polish to separate the ends! quick and simple!

a must watch film – mademoiselle c
