There is no surprise that I wouldn't forget to add some Glossier products. I came home to the Solution Skin Protector that I ordered a few weeks ago and I am loving it. A full review will be coming very soon if you are interested. Another from Glossier is there Wowder Setting Powder that has been added in my make-up routine. I'm so impressed with it's staying power and it's ability to not making my skin look dull and flat.
For beauty, the Too Faced Hangover Primer has been a huge life saver over the cold frosty weather we have been having. This particularly hydrates my skin and stops my make-up from clinging to my dry patches on my skin. The Maybelline Gigi West Lash Sensational Mascara has been giving my eyes great definition and length to my lashes.
Lastly, I placed a cheeky Antropologie sale order and in the box contained this very cute coaster with a fawn on. This looks dreamy on my bookcase alongside my books.

Starting with beauty - it's all about getting the metallic's, berry and red colours out. On my nails I will be wearing the Model's Own in One Night Stand that I got in a goodie bag from Clothes Show Live last year. It is a very risky colour to go for, but for Halloween it is perfect. On my lips I have three absolute favourites and they are - NYX Matte Lip Cream in 'Transylvania' and 'Amserdam'. A long favourite of mine is this one from Topshop called 'Beguiled' which is a gorgeous berry colour. All of these work perfectly with the nail polish.
Onto fashion and this is honestly my favourite part about Autumn and Winter. I love a pinafore dress and I have had this one from New Look for a while now and I still wear it. I love to style it with a turtle neck top underneath. For scarves, I am still obsessed with this super soft blush pink one from ASOS I got last year. I'd pair this with a plain beanie or a bobble hat. I love a denim skirt and I got this one recently from New Look, and as it's a dusty black it goes with everything. Lastly, I wear my New Look denim Gilmore Girls style jacket. I was so happy when I got this for Christmas last year from my boyfriend.
For home decor, I am obsessed with my pumpkin garland that I got from Etsy. I have this along my bedroom wall along with my wire rack picture holder that I found from New Look. I need to get myself some cute quotes on postcards that I can always hang from it. In my bedroom I also have my Autumnal candle burning from Homesense and it smells amazing.
Today I am bringing you something a little bit different to what I would normally blog about. I am really interested in accessories at the moment and one type of accessory I have frankly never owned is a watch. A reason for that is that I have never found the right one for me as I can be very picky. Now, when the lovely people over at JORD got in touch with me and asked if I would be interested in trying out one of their watches*, I was so excited as I loved the look of the collection they had on their website. If you carry on reading you can see how you could win a $100 code to use on a new JORD watch for yourself.
I was spoiled for choice which watch to pick but I decided to go for this gorgeous one from their Reece series in the Golden Camphor and Khaki*. The look and finish of this watch is just delightful. I can never tell it is there on my wrist because it feels so light and is so comfortable to wear all day long. You can tell how much work has gone into making these watches as it is beautifully hand crafted and looks natural. It is the perfect fashion accessory, imagine all the compliments I get on it asking where they can get one themselves and just how great it looks. The wooden box it arrives in took my breath away. Inside along with the watch you get a cloth to keep your watch in tact which is great. Along with a spray. You could say it's just the perfect watch! You can take a look at their watch collection here.
Myself and JORD are hosting a little giveaway where you can win a $100 code to use to get a wooden watch of your own. All you have to do is click here and enter your name and e-mail address. You will then be entered into a prize draw! And just by entering you get a $25 code off a wooden watch (excluding the winner). The giveaway is live now and will end on Tuesday 28/02/2017. Good luck to you if you enter! I would like to say a massive thank you to Bill over at JORD for getting in touch with me and sending me this lovely watch. I feel so spoiled!
What do you think of JORD Watches?
I am so happy that A/W styles have now popped into the stores, so of course I went a bit crazy. But I am very happy with what I have got. Primark and New Look have so many lovely pieces in right now and it was very hard to leave some behind in the store but I will most likely go back again to purchase them. For now these are some of the bits that I have got.
Primark had SO much a/w stuff that I just couldn't control myself. I decided to pick up a cute burgundy pinafore/dungaree dress because I have been wanting one for so long! For £12 I couldn't resist and it goes with everything. I am already wanting to wear it out but it is far too warm to yet. Next to that I saw a cute black/grey denim jacket for £12 also. Denim jackets were never my 'thing' fashion wise, I always thought they were uncomfortable to wear and just never found the right one. This one from Primark is perfect, it's short and the sleeves roll up perfectly.
As I was looking around I came across two pretty blouses. £10 each I couldn't resist especially because of how pretty they both looked. They have these cute ruffles at the front which adds a little bit of detailing to give it that sort of vintage look which I like.
New Look had a lovely range of autumn items but I just couldn't bring myself to spend so much money in there, so I just went for one thing and it was this lovely leopard print funnel neck top. I was debating whether to get the top or the skirt, but I just loved the top more. It has a cut out at the back which shows a bit of skin.
Lastly I picked up a soon to be favourite of mine which is the cup o' coffee face and body mask. I have been wanting to give this a try for so long and now I finally have it. One of the girls in Lush said that this a perfect wake me up for the mornings especially for your skin. All you do is smooth it over your face and body, leave it for 10 - 15 minutes and then rinse it all off in the shower. The smell is just strong and dark, I love it already.
Have you stocked up for Autumn/Winter yet?

Two outfit posts in a row, whattt! But I thought I would share with you an outfit I have been loving so much. Also a few people asked me what I was wearing and where my bomber jacket was from. I got it from Ebay for £5! Sadly I cannot find it online anymore, but it's worth looking for if you're a lover of Ebay like myself. It has sheer sleeves which looks pretty if you're just wearing a vest top underneath to show your arms. I took inspiration from one of Kate's outfits on Instagram. If you are interested in what I am wearing you can find the links below.

Hello from Devon. Today I thought I would bring you an outfit post, one that I have been loving. I was recently in New Look browsing their summer sale which had up to 60% off and I came across so many lovely items, but only came out with a couple. Some that I am planning on taking to Barcelona with me in October. So just a little heads up that this outfit does contain a lot of New Look.

Is it not scaring anybody else how fast this year is going? I've never known a year to go so quick. So here I am today to tell you what I have been loving all of May...
Primark Heart Pizza Tee (Similar Here) - Primark are killing it this Summer especially with these t-shirts. I picked up this gem for £5 (I think it was) which has a heart with the word "pizza" inside it. I bloomin' love pizza so this tee was perfect for me. I also picked up a taco one which is currently my most worn t-shirt. If you're ever in Primark, I suggest you pick up a few of these before they disappear.
Revlon Dramatic Definition Mascara - A mascara I have added in my make-up routine is this mascara from Revlon that I got in one of my recent Glossy Boxes. This mascara is great for length, you also get zero clumps which is a bonus for me as I have had mascara's in the past that have done that to me. I will probably repurchase this!
Essie Nail Polish In "Sunshine State Of Mind" - Onto a nail polish that I did include in recent post about my recent buys is this one from Essie. I haven't stopped coating this on my nails, it is my Summer nail colour. I would recommend you pick this one up if you're ever in Boots.
Lush Eau Roma Toner Water - I was looking in my 'beauty drawer' one day and I came across my bottle of the Eau Roma Toner Water from Lush, so I started using it again and now I am in love with it again. This has made my skin happier again and luckily It was still a full bottle so I still have a lot more use out of it.
MAC Matte Lipstick In "Please Me" - I made a little MAC purchase and one of them included this matte lipstick in 'please me' which is a rosy tinted pink colour. For those looking for a great everyday pink that's not too bright and attention-seeking but still vibrant and face-brightening, please me is a winner.

I am getting so so excited for Summer. I don't even have a holiday planned until October, but I can't help myself by looking on ASOS constantly at all the pretty items. But it doesn't stop me buying some of these dreamy pieces of clothing and accessories.
For example this dress is just so pretty! I love ruffles and the vintage floral print is my favourite. Here's a round up of my current picks for Summer!
Do you have your eye on any of these items?
