February Favourites!

I've only ever done one favourites post and that waaaay back last year, so I thought I'd give it another go.

Here are all the things I've been loving in Feb!

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
This product is an absolute god send. I had ran out of this concealer so went back to using a couple of old ones (which were probably out of date) and they never quite worked as well as the collection one, so I re purchased it and fell in love all over again. On a good spot free day, I can just wear this concealer with a bit of moisturiser and it will give me all the coverage I need, giving my skin a break from foundation.

Pro;Voke Touch Of Silver Shampoo
This is another product I have picked back up after not using it for a while. I had forgotten how good it is at taking away the brassy undertones in my hair, using this every other wash has made my hair so much more shiny and blonde!

MAC Lipstick - Please Me
I have been wearing this shade a lot recently, along with a berry lip liner. I feel like I'm late to the party on the whole Kylie Jenner lip, but I'm loving it! This shade is so versatile and easy to wear, for a casual daytime look I wear it by itself, then for a more exaggerated lip look I wear it with the berry lip liner.

Topshop Ripped Skinny Jeans
I love love love my ripped skinny jeans, if I could live in them then I would. They are the perfect fit for a start, which is my main issue when trying to find the perfect jeans. I like how I can just stick these on with a plain tee and they still look interesting with the ripped knees adding a grungy feel. I made mine myself by just cutting the knees out of an old pair I already had.

Taylor Swift's Elie Saab Dress
The Grammys were held at the beginning of Feb, with a whole host of other red carpet events such as the Oscars and The Brits following behind, and of course I was checking out 'who wore what'.
Taylor Swift definitely won the 'best dressed' award in my opinion, her Elie Saab dress in teal/turquoise was unreal! I loved everything about it, the ombre colour, the cut, the back and the fuchsia heels it was styled with. I'm all for anything Saab!

Missguided Wishlist


Missguided has always been a firm favourite of mine when it comes to online shopping, I love the styling of the website and the blog section, which is always great for styling inspo!

With winter almost gone, it's time to step into Spring with a new wardrobe full of Missguided goodness. Here are a few things that I will getting my hands on this season:

Tolipa Sleeveless Longline Blazer Camel
This camel coloured sleeveless blazer can be dressed up or down, being neutral allows it to be worn with any colour scheme! Most of my jackets/coats are black, so this light colour will be welcomed into my wardrobe to give it that Spring vibe.

Jessica Super High Waisted Skinny Jeans Blush
I am in desperate need of some new high waisted jeans, and again the ones I already own are black so a pair in this blush colour would be perfect! I would wear them with a nice strappy crop top and heels for a night out or with some trainers and a slouchy top for a more casual look.

Ashlie Knitted  Jumper Dress Cream
A jumper dress is something I've been after for a while, in fact I've bought a jumper a couple of sizes larger and made that do as a 'jumper dress' so it will be great to have one slightly more fitted! Keeping the colour light means it will transition nicely into Spring, and could even be worn throughout Summer on an evening.

Slogan Yves Aint Laurent White
I need a lot more everyday tshirts in my life and what is better than a slogan tee with a reference to YSL?!

Rose Garland Pink
For the past couple of years I have wanted to don the 'flower crown' look, but always bottled it as I think they look too big on me. However, this is the perfect way of incorporating the flower trend in a subtle way - something which I will definitely try out this Spring/Summer.

Hope this has inspired you to get your Spring 2015 wardrobe ready!
