Now for the instalment of Autumn Is Coming that I have been very excited for - LIPS! By far my favourite make-up item out there, I could spend £1 or even 1 million pounds on them - they are just amazing. There are a lot of colours that I love at this time of year, and ones that I am still finding when browsing instagram. But these four are the ones I have been going for these past few weeks making them more of my 'current favourites' rather than all time. 

1. (Bottom) Wet 'n' Wild in Cinnamon Spice £2.20 Amazon
This is the berriest shade of the four and it a lipstick that is to die for. I am so thankful for Mollie sending me this in the swap that we did because Wet 'n' Wild lipsticks that amazing, and worth the hyper that surronds them. They are only £2 and are creamy, long lasting and smell glorious. The lipstick glides on to the lips like butter and the semi-matte finish doesn't cake or flake away. I do find some bleeding after a few hours but this is due to no lip liner which is changing from today, as I am on the hunt for a berry lip liner for all these colours. 
I spoke about this wonderful lipstick just a few weeks ago in my 2 Seventeen Lip Products You Need To Try post. I love this lipstick because even though it is rich in colour and has a pinky undertone it's slightly glossy, making it easier to wear during the day. It is also very hydrating so perfect for those dry and cold lips. 
3. Revlon Lip-Butter in Red Velvet £7.99 Boots
I always thought that Revlon Lip butters were only for the summer time, this is due to the shades I had but infact after a trip to Boots last month I realised I was missing out. This lip butter not only has a name that makes me go hungry every time I use it but its a great colour. This is very red compared to the others, yet not a scary colour as the formula of butters are sheer. This means you can either wear it so that it doesn't really show, or build it up. Similar to the Seventeen lipstick the formula is moisturising and 'buttery' making you want to wear it as often as possible.
4. (Top) Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in Frambourjoise £8.99 Superdrug
Finally we have a lipstick that is a completely different colour to the other three, this is a true pink, Don't let pink scare you, or make you think that its only for summer nights because it most definitely isn't. If reds and berrys scare you then going pink is your next option and a formula like the velvet ones are perfect as it lasts all day and feels amazing on the lips. If you mix it with a red lip liner you deepen the colour and make it more autumnal.

Today I am talking all about the gorgeous Boutique Of Molly Dahlia Dress*. When autumn hits I am not really a dress and bare legs kind of girl but there is something about this dress that I love and will be wearing it as much as I can this Auutmn/Winter and in the summer as well.
The first thing that I love about it is the skater dress style, I don't own any skater dresses or skirts because my worry is of it looking unflattering however the shape of this one is amazing and I have fallen in love. It comes to just above my knees and the floaty-ness of the dress makes it comfortable to wear and move around in.
The colour is why I love it for the autumn, its navy blue and a very deep one as well. It goes nicely against my skin tone and can be worn numerous ways, such as with tights for a more informal look and with or with some nice heels. The main feature of the dress is the floral pattern that is running throughout, I tried my best to photograph the print as clear as can be because it is stunning. A mix of big and small flowers that are spread across the dress but not over powering it, and the pattern works all the way down to the bottom where there is a pink mesh insert.
The dress has cute little cami straps which calls for me to wear a shawl over it during the night but perfect for those summer days. The neckline in my opinion is 'sweetheart' but correct me if I am wrong. I usually go for scoop or turtle (my new obsession) but this one is just as flattering, it is slightly too big under my arms but nothing that a little bit of sewing can't fix!

I think this is either going to be my Diwali dress for one of the events or for Christmas!

You can buy your very own Dahlia Dress on their site! 
p.s if you order before 3pm your parcel is sent out the same day (Mon-Fri)



This dress was kindly sent to me, however all opinions expressed are my own. 

Brantano Autumn/Winter Wishlist


'Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world' what a great saying. I truly believe that the shoes you wear can make you feel like woman in power and that you are going to have a great day ahead just by putting on a pair of comfy shoes. Sandals no longer have a home in my heart but fluffly slippers and winter boots do! Brantano have recently bought out their Autumn/Winter range and I am just slightly in love. Here are my top 6 picks from the range...

Brantano Autumn/Winter Wishlist

Shoes in the winter have two be two things 1. Practice and 2.Stylish, that's where Wellies come in. They are great for a day out in the cold weather and if they look as nice as these tweedy ones why wouldn't you want to wear them. 
One thing that I love to do in the Autumn but don't do enough of is go for a stroll. The crisp autumn leaves underneath your feet and the fresh air that surrounds you. My university is all on campus which means that I really don't get out much, but maybe a pair of walking boots would encourage me to get out there and walk. Its good exercise and a chance for me to listen to all the music on my ipod that hasn't been listened to. I love that the detailing on these boots is purple my favourite colour. 
England isn't really known for the typical snowy winter weather but when it does come we do enjoy it to the fullest! I never seem to know what shoes to wear when it does snow, do i wear boots and risk slipping over? Or do I wear wellies and get them wet through? Brantano have a range of snow boots which are to die for. They look so warm and cosy that I want to buy some now and wear them just so my feet are kept warm. The Laverock ones don't look too bulky either so they won't be weighing you down. 
4.  Caravelle Leather Antique Knee High Boots - Was £90.00 Now £49.00
Now we get into the wishlist that consists of your more everyday footwear. First up is a gorgeous tan coloured pair of knee high boots. I seem to only ever buy black boots that go over the knee but these tan coloured ones look stunning and the heel is a perfect size for me. They seem to be slightly ashy as well which is unusual but paired with blue jeans and a white shirt would look amazing. 
Then we have my newest obsession of footwear - ankle boots. These are great if you love boots but don't like the whole knee high thing as they sit nicely on the bottom half of your leg and come in various different styles. My personal favourites are ones with a little heel on as the flat ones make me feet look huge. The black ones are your typical style with the quilted design at the back it is perfect for informal and formal days. But then there are the red ones which are just unbelievable. The snake like pattern gives them this edge and matches the majority of lipsticks and nail polishes I currently use - who doesn't love coordinating?

The whole Brantano A/W range is amazing and I could spend hours browsing the site to see all the different shoes if you fancy it then you can view the entire Autumn/Winter Range over on their site!

SEVENTEEN Falsifeye HD Mascara Review


Mascaras are so much fun to buy and use. They come in all different sizes and types it amazes me that each little thing can do something different. My latest mascara obsession is the Falsifeye HD Mascara from Seventeen, it is become holy grail status. 

The reason why I love it so much is because of the brush, it has two sides to it. one side has shorter bristles to hold the mascara bulk and then the longer bristles allow the brush to comb through your lashes. As it individual combs through each lash, my lashes become more defined, appear longer and super voluminous. You can also see in the images above that the tip of the wand is like a cone, and this great for those bottom lashes - mine are horrible. One coat gives you extra volume but putting two coats on gives it even more volume, that much that I have to push my glasses forward to see. 

I can't believe that a mascara that retails at £6.99 works as well as this. My lashes look amazing and wide awake great when I have a 9am lecture. 

Have you tired this amazing mascara?
