Weekly Wish List: Pullover

American Apparel Fishermans Pullover

It may still be summer according to the calender but the weather is proving otherwise and so this week I have decided to play along and go for a pullover. I've seen a few around but all of them were either the wrong colour for my skin tone or a weird style. But the lovely people at American Apparel have made the perfect style pullover and in as many colours as you can think of. There are sixteen different colours in fact and I love them all. But I choose four that I thought would work best. I love the simplicity of the camel coloured one but the navy and purple are more exciting. Even though it's obvious that the camel coloured one would go with a lot more, I still think the navy and purple would go with most thinks as well. My favourite would have to be the last one. It's a dark grey with specks of different colours. It would go with everything and still give me the bits of colour I want. I would be happy with any really or all...

What do you think? Too Nana? Or perfect for winter?

Weekly Wish List: Ombre Lips

A couple of days ago I saw this look in a magazine and really wanted to try it. I spent a couple of hours you tubing how to's and practising over and over. But I still couldn't get it right at all. My problem... the colour lipstick's I was using were too similar. Even though to me my pinks looked totally different, on they looked exactly the same. So my weekly wish list for this week is to get completely different colour lipsticks to create the ombre look. You are also probably wondering why I want to make my lips two different colours when they can look just as cool with one. Well this can also make your lips look bigger and fuller which is pretty cool if you ask me. They also look awesome and are something different from the too common smoky eye. The one thing though is it has to be shiny and you have to keep the rest of your make up simple. Meaning you have to use clear gloss on top to complete the look and step away from the eye liner... And unlike me you have to use complete different colours (still matching though!).

What do you think? Is it something you will try? Or is it best left to the runway and professionals?

My Little Wallet

After just counting I realised I actually have 13 wallets. Yes 13. Whilst trying to justify this really I only use four and have only bought three of them. The rest were just gifts. So really adding one more to the collection really doesn't matter. So welcome wallet 14 you will be truly loved just like your 13 other brothers and sisters. Though you're not suppose to have favourites, this one is. Only because I made it. I saw the pattern and just decided to do it. I picked up the next coolest looking material and then this baby was created. Surprisingly it didn't take too long and is also the perfect size for my Mimco bag. It is also the first thing I have made to wear my new labels. I haven't gotten around to sticking them on things I have already made (see I told you it would take me a couple of months... at least.) but it was lucky enough to be stuck on something. Even though I already have a truck load of wallets and I absolutely love this one I am hoping to make a few more of them. I don't know what I'll do with them but they are just so darn cute.

P.S How cool do the labels look?!
