Little Heroes

So the weather has changed and its all about trying to keep your skin hydrated.
At home its not a problem but I'm not going to be lotioning up in work!
I've got a little kit which I keep on my desk that works perfectly at keeping my skin lovely and smooth which I thought I would share as well as my all time favourite that I cannot be without!

Left to right: The Body Shop Almond Hand Cream, Nivea Vanilla & Macadamia lip butter & Grab & Go Antibacterial hand foam.

This stuff is so moisturising! You only need a little bit and it will cover your hands and make them feel so soft and the smell is amazing. Not almondy like marzipan but in a more naturally scented way. I also use this if my arms are feeling a little dry during the day which helps stave away dryness til I got home.

This is more of a hygeine essential but I like that its foam, has a little pump and doesn't smell super chemically.

Nivea Vanilla & Macadamia lip butter.
Ok. This smells AMAZING kind of sweet with the richness of the nuts. Its really softening and really hydrates my lips when they've been suffering with the air conditioning. I wish they did this in a tube though as I don't really like putting my fingers all in it (even though I will have used the anti-bac!)

Here is my bonus item *drumroll*

Oh Nivea Milk & Honey lip balm. How I love you and your sweet scent, your silky smooth texture and the way you hydrate my lips.
This is always on me. Either in my bag, pocket or hand just in case I need a little lip balm. Its less than £2 in Boots, and for how amazing it is, its a major bargain.

What staples do you use in winter?

See you soon,

Autumn Essentials

Ah, Autumn. How everyone loves you with your beautiful colours, crisp air and millions of pumpkin based treats!
One of my favourite things about Autumn has got to be the change in colours people wear. Dont get me wrong I can love a pastel or bright as much as the next person but my heart lies with more Autumnal shades.
I have a lot of clothes already but wanted to pick up a few little bits just to adjust my wardrobe a bit.
So I hit up TK MAXX.

First, and most boring - some black skinny jeans. I had a huge clearout at the start of summer and thought it was a good idea to get rid of all my jeans bar one nice pair. This, of course, meant that once Autumn hit I was pretty screwed!
These are by Diamonds and Denim and fit really nicely and will be a cold winter staple!

Next up to the right is a very oversized, long, leopard print scarf. I don't tend to wear a lot of patterns but always see people wearing leopard print and think it just pulls everything together nicely.

Bottom right is a super soft burgundy jumper. It has loose knit and tighter knit stripes which gives it something extra. I love this colour with the scarf.

Last but not least are these leopard print flats from Bamboo - a brand I hadn't heard of before but they had loads of different designs in TK MAXX.

 

I just think these are really pretty, especially with the cute ankle strap that will show when worn with skinny jeans or skirts with tights.

I did realise after getting home that what I had actually done was buy one entire outfit so if you live in the Bristol area, expect to see me in this get up often!

See you soon!
