Collective haul – clothes + shoes (February 2023)

It’s time for a collective clothes and shoes haul. These are all items I purchased back in February.

I love an oversized blazer, I love corduroy, and I love pink, so I loved this blazer from Monki, and it was even on sale.

You’ve already seen me wear these red and pink checkered trousers a couple of times (here and here). They’re also from Monki, and I got them 20% off.

It’s always nice to have a selection of joggers in your wardrobe, and I got this wide leg pair from H&M on sale.

You have also seen me wear this dress; I wore it at my daughter’s christening. It’s from Monki.

Here’s another Monki dress, but I haven’t worn this one yet. I love the pattern and all the colours, but it’s not very breastfeeding friendly.

I love coloured tights and picked up a green pair from Monki and three pairs from Calzedonia in navy, purple, and pink.

I got two pairs of Mary Jane style shoes. The purple pair is from Koi Footwear and the orange pair is from Monki. The Monki style I also own in black, white, and pink.

Lastly, I picked up some Coca-Cola Jibbitz for Crocs. So fun, right.

One of the most comfortable

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I think the eye look is super pretty, and the lipstick is one of the most comfortable matte liquid lipsticks I think I’ve ever worn.

Fresh and summery

Lookfantastic haul (January-February 2023)

I have a collective Lookfantastic haul to share with you today. This haul consists of products from Natasha Denona, L’Oréal, and MAC.

I was so excited about this lip product launch from Natasha Denona since my go-to lip colour is red. These are the I Need A Rouge Lip Stylettos in Gigi and Emilia and the I Need A Rouge lip crayon in Emilia (I had already picked up the lip crayon in Gigi from Sephora). I absolutely love the formula of both the lipsticks and the lip crayons.

From Natasha Denona I also picked up the Pastel Plexi Glow highlighter and a lash guard, and from L’Oréal I got the Infaillible 24H Fresh Wear Matte bronzer in 250 Light.

Here’s a closer look at the highlighter and the bronzer. The highlighter is a golden champagne colour even though it might look more pastel, and the bronzer is such a nice matte bronzer.

Lastly, I picked up four shades of the MAC Locked Kiss Ink Lipcolours. I wore the dark purple here, and it’s called Sardonic. The yellow orange is called Yes, the pinky red is called Gossip, and the grey is called Stoic. I thought Sardonic was a bit patchy, but I loved the shade Yes. I’m excited to try the other two colours as well.

Legit blue

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I just love a blue eye look, and the blue mascara is the icing on the cake.

Oversized and flared

Here’s what I wore Saturday April 29. I love the look of an oversized blazer with wide leg or flared trousers.

Main focal point

Here’s what I wore Thursday April 27. I really wanted to wear this shirt and decided to do a simple styling of it to keep the shirt the main focal point of the look.
