Black, White & Grey

 Small Chain Strap Quilted Bag - Topshop Gift
Diamante Bar Through Choker - Topshop £3.50
Grey Sunny Knit Jumper - French Connection £32.50
White Grid Oversized Shirt - New Look £19.99
Fang Double Buckle Sandals - Topshop £25
Fernando Flatform Sandals - Topshop £15 

In all honesty, I have been very well behaved in regards to spending and shopping recently. Although above photographs would suggest otherwise. These are a few of the things I have accumulated over a couple of weeks. Im sooo very into Black and White at the moment, I think its the simplicity. Topshop had a mega sale on again so I snapped up some real bargains. Both pairs of sandals are super comfortable and when I look down at my feet and see them , they make me happy haha! I questioned whether I was silly for buying new sandals so far into summer, as it has rained pretty much everyday for the last 2/3 weeks...but who cares they're definitely perfect for summer to autumn transition, plus there are rumours of a few more warm sunny days on the way! I quite literally cannot wait to get back into wearing jumpers again, this Grey one from French Connection is soo soft and yummy, I actually bought the Lime Green version about a month ago and have stored it away safely in my winter stock drawer hehe!! Knowing how lovely it was, was what pushed me to purchase the Grey  too - you cant ever go wrong with a Grey slubby jumper. Are you ready for the onset of A/W? Have you been buying anything similar recently?

August Be Mine?

Mickey Jumper - £19.99 H&M // Huarache - £79.99 Nike // Decadent Earrings - £15 ASOS // White Jeggings - £20 DP // Black Duster Jacket - £29.99 New Look // Black Flap Bag - £110 DKNY

Im sooo into Black and White at the moment , both on their own and together. New white jeans are definitely on my list, and Dorothy Perkins Jeggings are such a comfortable fit - I'm considering getting those instead of normal jeans. Im not sure if there are many more sunny days to come , so I'm starting to look for Autumn/Winter investments! I loveee sweaters and jumpers so I'll definitely be purchasing lots of those!! I saw this DKNY  bag in Selfridges recently and its sooo nice and well made. Its nice that it doesn't have the logo stamped all over it, like so many of the other designs by DKNY - the price isn't really too horrendous either! Duster jackets are set to be massive during A/W and there are so many colours and patterns to choose from, although I think if I do get one , I'll be sticking with Black . My favourite. Is there anything similar on your August Wishlist?

Pétale Noir

Agent Provocateur Petale Noir EDP 30ml - £12 Boots

Pétale Noir, the exquisite new fragrance from Agent Provocateur, is a deep floral scent with a hint of oriental mystique. The launch of the new Pétale Noir fragrance personifies the modern and naturally confident woman, but be warned, she knows what she wants and knows how to get it.

 The fragrance is made with the finest of oils featuring dramatic florals for the heart and precious woods, enhanced by musk crystals and sweet spicy accords that ignite the senses. A rich, vintage rose pink juice, perfectly complements the delicately floral, and beautifully shaped sensual bottle. Yet beware, things are not how they seem as the soft petals make way for dangerous prickly thorns. This contrast in mood is further emphasised by a striking black chain around the neck, symbolising the stark suggestive passion that binds us together."

The other day I was getting ready, I looked at my perfume shelf and thought ahh I need to try something new. I'm the sort of person who finds a perfume they love, and then keeps repurchasing it. Thats not to say I don't have a huge perfume selection, because I really do - but I felt like I hadn't tried something totally new for a while. Later on that day I was in Boots and saw this for £12, I picked up the sample bottle and sprayed it and thought it smelt lovely. Its definitely different from my usual perfume type - I'm very much a Jean Paul Gauliter, Marc Jacobs & Jimmy Choo kinda girl. This perfume smells very...dare I say it!? Sexy.. Which I guess makes sense considering it belongs to a brand who make some of the sexiest beautiful underwear around! Petale Noir really is such a girly , romantic scent - perfect for date night! I couldnt believe it was on offer for £12 too originally priced at £36, a bargain and a great excuse to try something new. Have you tried any Agent Provocateur Fragrances?

Bronze Block

 Sleek MakeUP Bronze Block - £7.49

I have been a big fan of Sleek for a good few years now and I love it when they bring out new products. This is pretty new out so when I saw it I thought I had better try it. I always go for matte makeup as I sometimes suffer with oily skin,  but recently I've been wearing less and less - with the main focus on good brows, mascara'd lashes and a bit of contour. I think when you're going for barely there make up you can definitely afford a quick dusting of a light bronzer just to add a bit of dewiness and healthy glow. This bronze quad contains 4 different shades which you can use separately for highlight, contour and blush or you can swirl together for an all over glow. There are two shades available, Light & Dark - I chose light. I've been swirling them and applying lightly all over my face as I already have the Sleek Contour Kit that I use for contour - which if you haven't tried , you definitely need to. I just yesterday saw something very very similar to this quad on ASOS by Daniel Sandler which was £28 - so definitely a bit of a price difference there! Im really happy with this product so far, its subtle and I love the results it gives. Definitely one to try for those of you who like me, want to look bronzed but arent a big fan of the glitter and over the top shimmer!! Have you tried this or any other Sleek products?
