Colourful collective Monki haul

Posted on January 25, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

It’s time for another Monki haul. This is a mix of sale and non sale items, however I don’t remember exactly which items were on sale and which items weren’t, because it’s been a while since I purchased these things. Let’s begin with tops.

First off, jumpers. I love a good colourful jumper, and I think both of these are so fun.

I love a fitted roll neck top, and both of these are great additions to my wardrobe. They’re perfect for retro inspired outfits.

If there’s something Monki does well, it’s funky patterns and fun colour combos. These short sleeve shirts are perfect examples of just that.

The first T-shirt I already own in purple, brown, and two different shades of green, and it’s just a great basic. I know for sure that I purchased the ramen T-shirt on sale, and I just thought it was cute.

I already own this dress in a lime green and white patterned version, and I love that dress, so I had to have it in my favourite colour as well.

I just love a patterned trouser these days, and I love both of these pairs. The first pair matches the second short sleeve shirt above and paired together they make a great outfit. The blue and cream trousers are great for colour blocking.

I own a dress in this pattern, which I love, so I decided to get the skirt version as well, and it’s so cute.

I wasn’t sure that I would be into stirrup leggings, but I so am. These are so fun, and I’ve loved creating outfits with these.

Lastly, I also purchased two pairs of black patterned tights. I just love a fun pair of tights.

Soft, shimmery eyes and nude lips

A mix of a bit of everything

Here’s what I wore Thursday August 26. The weather got a bit colder for a few days in late August before it got warmer again. This outfit is a mix of a bit of everything, and I really like when those kinds of outfits just happens.

Pretty purples and pinks

Wedding guest

Jeffree Star Pink Religion collection

Posted on January 21, 2022 by Mucha-Lucha

I know it’s been a while since this collection launched, but I’m still so behind on posts. But anyways, these are the things I picked up from the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Pink Religion collection.

The main star (pun intended) of this collection is of course the Pink Religion eyeshadow palette. I really enjoy the Jeffree Star Cosmetics eyeshadow formulas, and I love pink and purple eyeshadows, so I had to add this palette to my collection. There are only three metallics in this palette, which I think is a shame, but it’s still a very pretty palette.

I was really excited to try the new Hydrating Glitz lip balm. It’s a shimmery tinted lip balm, and I picked up the shade Altar, which is described as a mauve pink. It’s quite sheer, but still hydrating and pretty on the lips.

I love the Velvet Trap lipsticks, so I picked up one of the new shades from the collection. This is the shade Always Faithful, which is described as a purple pink berry. It’s brighter in real life compared to what it looks like in this picture.

The last product I picked up from this collection was the Holy Mist Soothing Facial Spray. It has a very fine mist, and it smells great.

More muted version
