IKEA ALEX Make-up unit!

IKEA Alex Drawer Unit - £85

So i finally followed the craze over the Ikea Alex drawer unit that many bloggers and youtuber's possess and i have to say i can understand the hype. This drawer is amazing for make- up storage, which is primarily what i use it for, however, the 9 drawers mean that there is plently of space, in my case, for other pampering items such as body lotions, hair care and even books! the top 5 drawers are shallower which is best for makeup as it's easier to identify your products. i have also used the top to display my perfumes which are positioned on a candle plate (also purchased from Ikea). A full make- up collection will be up soon, once i get the products organised in the drawers - something i am still yet to accomplish ;)

SATC Prequel - The Carrie Diaries Book and TV Series!

'Before there was sex, before there was the city, there was just me: Carrie. Carrie Bradshaw.' 

So i have been obsessed with the Carrie Diaries books and New TV series!! Portrayed by the beautiful Anna Sophia Robb, it shows Carrie Bradshaw's (Sex and the City) life prior to SATC during her junior year of high school in the 80s, when she was younger, living in Connecticut and was madly in love with the big bold city of New York! I won't give too much away but it's definitely worth a watch :)

YSL Rouge Volupte Shine Lipstick in Number 14

With flash



This is one of my newest purchases and it has already become a favourite of mine, so much so that i am wearing this bright coral on a daily basis! It is such a beautiful hue, the perfect spring lip shade in my opinion. I tend to gravitate mostly to coral and orange lipsticks as a pose to cool toned pinks as i feel they compliment my skin tone more however this lipstick i feel can be worn by every skin tone and still look amazing! :)
