I’m always excited about new Jeffree Star Cosmetics collections, but the Love Sick collection has one of my favourite Velour liquid lipstick colour selections ever. I loved the colours so much that I had to buy all four shades. The shades are (from left to right): Romeo, Restraints, Problematic, and Self Control. My favourite one of bunch is Self Control; a beautiful lilac. I’ll be posting make-up looks featuring these lipsticks eventually.
H&M has a great sale right now, and I took the opportunity to purchase some winter coats. All three of these coats have such good prices, and I know I’ll get a lot of use out of them. I’ve already gotten a lot of use out of the black puffer jacket. I haven’t worn the red puffer jacket yet, but it was so inexpensive, and I just love the colour. I’ve been looking at the gorgeous oversized shearling corduroy coat before, but it was too expensive, but now that it’s on sale, I had to get it. I love it!
Here’s some of my Christmas presents and a couple of advent calendar presents as well. I got the black leather belt bag on my gift advent calendar from my mum, and I’ve been wanting one for a while. I wear it crossbody, and it’s my new everyday bag. The ring is by the Danish jewellery designer Jane Kønig. It was on my wishlist for Christmas, and I love it. The dinosaur earrings are from a website called Lisa Angel, and they are adorable. The eye shadow is MAC Ricepaper, which was another advent calendar gift. It has already become a part of my everyday eye make-up routine. The blusher is MAC Peaches, which is the perfect peachy blusher. Lastly, I got another Urban Decay Heavy Metal glitter eyeliner. It’s in the shade Distortion, and it’s so pretty.
In November, BeautyBay had a 30% off sale, so I bought the items in the first picture. I decided it was time to try out the RCMA No-Color Powder that I’ve heard so much about. I also really wanted to try out a Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow liquid eye shadow, and because they’re so expensive I waited for a sale. I purchased the shade Smoldering Satin. Lastly, I bought a couple of eyeliners; a bright reddish orange from Morphe called High Maintenance and a metallic taupy champagne from Zoeva called Nude Reflection. When the Jeffree Star Holiday Glitter collection finally hit BeautyBay I purchased the Velour liquid lipstick in the shade Mermaid Blood which is a gorgeous teal colour. I also bought a Morphe eye shadow brush in number M518. I’ll be featuring these products in future make-up posts.
I have another clothing haul to show you, and I’m pretty sure this will be the last one of the year. When I went shopping and bought these things, I also tried on the red Mickey Mouse Christmas T-shirt at H&M, but they didn’t have it in my size, so when I found it on sale on the website, it was meant to be. I also found the Donald Duck T-shirt on the website which I’m very excited about. I can’t wait to style it. I also bought a little, Black cami top with sequins which is great for parties and nights out. I’ve been wanting the plaid trousers for a while, so when I found them on sale, I had to order them. They’re so festive, but I’m going to wear them all year round. I’ve also been wanting a black, A-line mini skirt for a long time, and even though this one is a bit shorter than I hoped, I’ll make it work. The belt was a gift from my advent calendar from my mum, and it’s a really nice plaited one.
I have another clothing haul to show you. These are all pieces I bought last weekend. I went to buy a last Christmas present and a couple of these items, but I found a couple more things I liked. As you can see, I’ve added another Christmas jumper to my collection. I couldn’t resist the cropped Mickey Mouse Christmas jumper at H&M. It is so cute and so comfortable. I went in to H&M to find the Bambi jumper which is again so cute and so comfortable. When I saw the burgundy velvet jumper at Monki, I had to try it on, and it’s the most comfortable and cosy jumper I’ve ever worn! The black velvet top with gold shimmer is what I went in to Monki for, and it’s perfect for the Christmas season. Monki had a 3 for 2 deal on socks, and I love cute socks, so I got two stripy pairs and a Christmas pair. Lastly, I found the red beret which I wore with this outfit in a second hand store, and it’s a really great quality beret. I used to wear hats more often, and I really want to start doing that again.
I have a few clothing items to show you that I’ve collected over the past month or so. I didn’t own a simple, black roll neck top, so I ordered one from Boohoo on Asos. I’ll wear it on its own or underneath a cami top. I found the pink and white, stripy long sleeve top on sale on H&M’s website, and I had to have it. I love stripy tops and the colours and the little embroidered cherries are so cute. I bought the burgundy, shiny cami top at the same time as the stripy top, and I thought it would be perfect for a Christmas party. Especially layered on top of the black roll neck top. And last but not least, one of my favourite purchases in a long time; high-waisted, flared, deep burgundy, corduroy trousers. In the beginning of October I started my hunt for a pair of corduroy trousers, and I actually saw these at H&M, but they only had one pair left and they were not in my size and no other H&M store had any left. So I went on the website, and I didn’t buy them until about a month ago when they were in stock in my size. They are exactly what I was looking for; super ’70s inspired and so gorgeous! My next post will be an outfit featuring these amazing trousers.
I have a few new accessories I want to show you. It’s the season for wearing boots, so I bought two pairs of boots that fit in with this season’s trends; red boots and sock boots. The red boots are from a brand called Raid and I bought them on Asos. They have a bit of a ’60s vibe to them which I love. They are also perfect for the festive season. The floral sock boots are from H&M. They have a kitten heel which is a another trend at the moment, and you can style them in so many different ways. I also bought some more glitter socks, and these colours are very appropriate for this time of year. Lastly, I bought some jewellery on Asos. The bracelets are from Asos’ own brand and they are made of gold plated sterling silver. I’ve been wanting some dainty gold bracelets for a long time now, and these are really simple and pretty. I also bought some Kingsley Ryan sterling silver lightening blot earrings, and they are so cute.
I’m so excited about this years Christmas clothing haul! I wanted to make this post in the end of November, but I was waiting for the T-shirt to arrive, and then I was lucky enough to get a few things on my gift advent calendar that my mum made for me, so I’m glad I waited. The first Christmas jumper I bought was the fluffy, white one. It’s from the supermarket brand VRS, and it says ‘Baby, it’s cold outside’ in red sequins. I haven’t worn it yet, but I have some great styling ideas. The second jumper is from Asos, and when I saw it, I knew I had to have it. It combines two of my favourite things; Disney and Christmas. It’s actually a men’s jumper, so I got it in a size XS. I’m wearing it today, and I love it! The last of the jumpers is also a men’s jumper, but it had my name written all over it. It’s from H&M, and it has a T-rex dressed as a Christmas tree on it; a Tree rex. How genius is that! Oh, and it has bells as well and they jingle when you walk. So festive! As you can see, I also got a Christmas themed T-shirt this year. It’s from Monki, but it is an Asos exclusive. I love the gingerbread men print and the fact that it’s pink; not typically a Christmas colour, but it’s so cute. The three pairs of regular socks are also from Monki. I believe they are from last Christmas, because I bought them on sale in the beginning of October. I’m really looking forward to wear them; especially the ones in the middle with the baubles. And the last two items I got on my gift advent calendar. I got the cute Christmas penguin socks two days ago, and I got the hat yesterday. My mum knows how much I love Christmas, and these items are super cosy. I’ll be posting outfits featuring some of these items very soon, so keep an eye out for that.
As the Jeffree Star Cosmetics fan I am, I was very excited about this years holiday collection. It’s called the Jeffree Star Holiday Glitter Collection and it has the most beautiful packaging! Definitely my favourite packaging Jeffree Star has done so far. I usually buy Jeffree Star Cosmetics on Beautybay.com, but the collection is not on the webside yet. I really wanted to make sure that I got a couple of products from the collection, so I bought these two lip products on the Danish wedside House of Stars. This webside did not have the entire collection, and there’s another Velour liquid lipstick I really want, and maybe one of the lip scrubs, so I hope that Beautybay gets the collection at some point. But let’s talk about the two beautiful lip products I already got.
First of all, the pink packaging with silver glitter and holographic writing makes my make-up loving heart skip a beat. I know it makes it hard to see the colour properly, but I will obviously post pictures of me wearing it at some point. The Velour liquid lipstick I purchased is called Poinsettia, and it’s a gorgeous metallic red. Perfect for the holiday season. I can’t wait to wear this shade!
I also bought my first ever Lip Ammunition, and the reason why I had to have it is because it is the ‘stick’ lipstick version of my favourite liquid lipstick, Redrum. This Lip Ammo has a satin finish and I hope I’ll love it as much as I love the liquid lipstick version.
Lastly, I just wanted to show you the cardboard packaging the lipsticks came in. They are holographic and I tried to capture it with my camera. So pretty!
