Hi beauties,
Now I don't know about you guys, but I for sure am loving the festival trend that's floating about. What with moving house and other things that just drain money away, I haven't attended any festivals this year. But, that's not to say that I can't enjoy the fashion that goes along with it.
I don't usually shop on ASOS. I can never really find anything that grabs my eye and makes me want it, until now. I officially want the majority of the site. Making this wishlist post was pretty difficult and I could have added so much more.
The cuts, the prints, the overall relaxed feel of everything above. I want it all! I'm only hoping that it'll still be available when I have some real pennies to spend and I can finally revamp my wardrobe. I've never actually managed to do it. I buy one or two things and still I'm living in tatty, boring clothes.
With the new hair, I want a new look. I need to find my 'fun', 'different' Sam again.
The above thirteen items together would set me back £210.50. Not bad if I do say so myself. I just need to start saving!

When I heard that Rimmel were bringing out a new range of Kate Moss lipsticks, I knew I had to have a couple. But, when I heard that the new range was entirely matte, I dashed to my nearest Boots right away.
Luckily for me there was a 3 for 2 offer on, so I ended up picking two of the new range and one shade from the older line. (I'll blog about that one soon.)
First, I picked up shade 101. Surprisingly enough, I don't actually have many soft pinks in my collection and this one caught my attention straight away.
I'd definitely describe this as a soft baby pink with blue undertones.
The second shade I picked up was 110, a really bold and daring orange red.
This colour is amazing, but something I wouldn't normally pick out in fear that it would hake my teeth look incredibly yellow. Which, you'll be pleased to know, it doesn't.
Both lipsticks are ridiculously long wearing. I actually wore shade 110 a lot whilst we were staying in Leeds and I found it even lasted throughout me eating a 3 course meal. It did need a teeny bit of touching up, but if I had left it back at the hotel, it wouldn't have been the end of the world.
I much prefer a matte lip for the A/W months, and an extra bonus to these lipsticks, is they don't dry out your lips at all. They're actually pretty moisturising.
For £5.49, you cannot go wrong with these lipsticks. I'm now constantly choosing these over any of my others in my pretty large stash. Hopefully I'll be able to get my mitts on the other three shades in the matte collection soon.

Which shade do you like best?

Believe it or not, ladies. This is my very first Essie polish.
A few websites have been selling Essie super duper cheap recently and I didn't want to miss out. I totally would have bought more, but at the time, my bank account just wouldn't allow it.
I didn't have an orange polish in my collection so this one just jumped out at me!
As with every other blogger that loves Essie, I do too.
This polish was opaque after one coat! Amazing! I did add an extra coat, just out of pure habit, but it didn't need it.
I wore this polish for roughly four days before it started to chip, which for me, is pretty damn good.
I'll definitely be buying more as soon as I can.
Right now, Fragrance direct has a few shades for sale at only £1.99 a bottle, and I will add other links that I come across in the future.
What's your favourite Essie polish?
