I'm lovin' it A/W13



Bababababaaaaaaaah I'm lovin' it...

Yes! I thought it was high time I had a little round-up of what I've been loving so far this season!



Kitsch jewellery.
Just before I had Bear, my husband bought me a selection of jewellery from Designosaur, including this perspex Allasaurus necklace which re-kindled my love of over-sized, statement necklaces which I like to wet with the boring, basic tops I have to wear for breast feeding.





Matte make-up.
I know it's been around for years but I do love matte-effect. I've always been partial to a matt eye shadow but it's only recently I've started to like it in lipstick and nails and with them now on the high street, it doesn't break the bank to get on board and bring a bit more 'grown-up' style to my collection. After all, I am hurtling towards 30...


Bargain boots.
A couple of weeks ago I picked up a super-cute and on-trend pair of black ankle boots from Primark for £15. Now, they won't last forever but they're warm, water-proof and look great with jeans or tights. Bargain!


Festive scents.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...and Yankee are known for doing great Christmas smells! I want to fill my house with them...which I'm sure my husband will be totes on board with...



Hot chocolate.
If you don't love hot chocolate, I'm afraid we cannot be friends. As much as I dislike Starbucks for multiple reasons, they do do a great seasonal novelty drink! The current favourite; salted caramel hot chocolate.



Navy nails.
Navy is the new red! It's a great way to wear dark nails for those not wanting to wear black. I find it a more sophisticated edge than flat onyx.



All things magical and fairy tale.
My step-mum has me totally hooked on 'Once Upon a Time' as well as a little trip we have coming up to France to see Disney at Christmas next month, I am WELL in the mood for a bit of pixie dust...

Saturday Savings - Barry M

So I have a bit of a fun Saturday Savings for you today. Something for the mummies that deserve a little treat.

Barry M have released two limited edition summer shades for 2013, a bright coral pink and an equally bright lime green, perfect shades for holiday toes (or fingers, or any nails really) now that the sun has finally made an appearance! They're distinguished over their regular 'nail paints' from the Aztec and Zebra patterned lids.

Currently in Superdrug if you spend £6 or more on ANY Barry M make-up, you receive one of the limited edition shades for free! That's a saving of £3.99 per bottle. This offer is only available in store, I can't find it online.

If you've not tried Barry M before, they're such a good brand, their nail polish formulas are legendary and they're well-known for introducing new effects to the high street.

Here are my goodies...


Nail art pen in white £4.99
Glitter polish in Bubblegum £3.99
Nail paint in clear £2.99
Lipstick in 311
