THINGS I'VE BEEN USING, WEARING & LOVING LATELY

Apologies for things being rather quiet on here recently. If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen that I’ve been looking for a new apartment as I have to move next month. I’m not going to lie, the last few weeks have been a bit of a rollercoaster, what with trying to find something to - first be able to visit (nigh impossible in Paris as nobody replies…) - and then a flat that I actually want to move in to, which is why there’s been minimal content creation and I’ve stayed away from social media a bit.

I have now found something (!), but am still waiting to hear if I have it, so my stress levels have been riding high. Anyway I’m remaining positive, so I thought I’d talk about the things that I’ve been wearing and using and loving recently - items that will be taking up residence in my wardrobe for years to come and the beauty products that I will be replenishing when they’re finished. (Just click on the images for more info/ to shop.)

Nanushka Quilted Jacket

I have worn this continuously since a snapped it up in the sale last month and it’s the comfiest and warmest jacket I own. And it’s vegan leather.

Arket Boots

These mock croc boots have become a recent wardrobe staple and they go with everything. Sadly the croc has sold out, but heres’s the matt black version, which I’m also contemplating.

Byredo Slow Dance Fragrance

This is my current fragrance and think I will definitely be re-investing when it has run out.

Mulberry Iris Bag

This has become my everyday bag - I have the cream version. When you invest in a bag that’s worth this much, you need to think about price per wear and this has certainly earned its price tag.

Agolde Jeans

White/ beige jeans transcend seasons - I wear them in winter and spring so these are a great investment and this is one of the best fitting styles that I’ve worn.

Charlotte Tilbury Lipliner in Pillow Talk

I’ve been using this a lot lately - it’s just the right neutral lip shade to enhance the natural line and colour of my lips. Perfect if you don’t usually wear lipstick, but want to give your lips a little natural colour boost.

Augustus Bader The Cream

One of the best creams I’ve ever tried. It’s pricey, but worth it - it actually replaces your serum too, so that’s where you can save some money. I’m currently out, but I usually use it morning and night.

Goldsign Benefit High Rise Jeans

If I were to recommend one pair of jeans to invest in - these would be it. They are by far the best fitting pair of jeans I’ve found and they’ve become my go-to style. I have them in three shades - light blue, washed black and blue denim.

Oskia Super 16 Pro-Collagen Serum

I’m big on anything that will boost collagen and this serum has a natural retinol equivalent - Bakuchiol, which is derived from Indian Babchi seeds that have been traditionally used for centuries to heal cuts and are much kinder to sensitive skin. I’ve been applying morning and night.

Manu Atelier Bag

Another everyday bag that I wear cross body when a smaller bag will do.

Susanne Kaufmann Line T Eye Cream

I know I wax lyrical about Susanne Kaufmann products, but they really are that good. With the Line T Eye Cream being one of my favourites.
