my summer essentials

Tuesday, December 06, 2011

My lovely Summer make-up collection; mum bought me the limited edition parisienne blush and shadow (by Bourjois) and I love my pink peony lipstick too, so very girly. Grandma’s vintage gold jewellery {as seen in the post before last} will be worn again tomorrow when I go out thrifting with her -- can't wait! My wedges have also been a huge help lately, matching with almost every outfit I own, it’s hard not to choose them! Summer reading includes back issues of Teen Vogue {for style inspiration} and Like I give a Frock! By Michi girl. And last but not least; Servin’ up Sparkle nail polish by OPI is perfect for the festive atmosphere.

The rainy weather has restricted me in activities, but I’m keeping my sunshine-longing spirits up by taking advantage of my spare time and practising a little photography. Although I'm still quite the amatuer, I'm getting better at macro focusing; I love doing it on flowers…
I’m starting to get more familiar with html as well and it’s making me feel more ‘techy’ than usual. Hopefully, in the near future, I will be able to attempt making a custom pretty header for Avenue M. I do love the layout now {florals *sigh*} but I want something a little more professional. What do you think? Happy mid-week! ♥

In my profile picture I curled my hair - naturally it's poker straight so I tend to sleep with it in plaits and then curl it in the morning :) Thank you for your lovely comment! I love the bourjois shadow and blush, they're so cute and the packaging is the prettiest thing! <3

Of course we should follow each other! I followed :)

Love Ellen xx

I can't tell you how envious I am that you're in summer whilst it's so cold and wet here in the UK!x
