GIFT IDEA: ROSEFIELD AMS NYC BOWERY WATCH



With under a week to go there's not much time left for shopping! I wanted to share my new watch with you, it's this gorgeous leather strap watch from Rosefield* which you can get online from Browns Family Jewellers. They have a huge selection of watches from lots of well known brands not just Rosefield. They also stock earrings, rings necklaces and many more products from lots of popular brands. 

The watch itself is absolutely gorgeous, as you can see it was packaged beautifully and would make such a lovely gift.  The leather strap is really thick and such a great quality strap that would last a long time. The silver face is really pretty and smooth, I love it! I've got the Navy Strap and silver face but you can get this watch in other colours too, like Black or Pink! 

I'm so happy with my new watch and it's perfect for everyday for work but you could also wear it on a night out, it's really versatile and such a classic style that will always be on trend. 

I will feature the watch in an outfit post in the next few weeks, things are just a little crazy right now as i'm working right up till Christmas (oh the joys of working in retail) 

For more gift ideas head over to Browns Family Jewellers and order today for Christmas Delivery!

LIFESTYLE: MY BUCKET LIST


I would consider myself to be a live my life kind of person, I believe that this is our life and we should live it to the full. I like to travel to places and experience things. If I have a week off work it's very rare that I would do absolutely nothing. I got to go to Orlando, Florida last year and that was very high on my bucket list. I'm so glad we went and although we couldn't really afford it, we made it happen because it's an experience and we knew we may not get the chance any time soon. It was amazing we had such a brilliant time. We also went to Dublin and to Ibiza last year and that's because I haven't managed to get onto a teacher training course so i'm working. Since we went to Ibiza we have got our own flat which is another thing that was on my Bucket list because I felt like i'd never be able to afford to move out and now I have and I love it! So i'm having to put other things on hold and we might not be able to afford any amazing trips like we did last year but its worth it.

MY BUCKET LIST 

  1. Personally I would love to travel, i'd love to visit the world and live in some amazing places. I want to see Australia, New Zealand, The Grand Canyon, New York, Las Vegas, Thailand, Paris and many more. This is my dream i'd love to drop everything, have absolutely no commitments and experience the world. 
  2. I want to get that dream job, I always wanted to be a teacher. I'm not sure if that's still my dream but I will do what I have to do to get there and get a job that I love. 
  3. I wouldn't be greedy but i'd love to be financially stable when i'm older so I could decide if I want to work, i'd love to just be able to spend everyday with Clint whether it's just at home or we could go out everyday and experience new things. 
  4. I have been to a festival before but I really want to go to another one, it would be amazing to go to one in a different country. 
  5. I really want to go Skiing, i've actually been looking for next year so that would be so so amazing, i'm slightly accident prone so i'd need to be very careful not to injure myself.
  6. Go Skydiving, i've always wanted to go skydiving. I might have to pop my name down and do it for charity - how amazing would that be! 
  7. Have a nice house, and a happy healthy family. 
I'm sure as I get older I will tick some of these off and i'll also add more to this list. It's really fun to think of things you want to do in your lifetime. I think most of my bucket list is realistic, I think it's wise to be realistic because chances are you won't get to be a millionaire before you die or sing on stage with Beyonce but it's also fun to add it too your list, anything can happen.

BEAUTY: THE PERFECT AUTUMN PALETTE WITH BOBBI BROWN


BOBBI BROWN - THE GREIGE PALETTE - £52* 
INTENSE PIGMENT LINER - £ 26.50*

I am loving this palette from Bobbi Brown this Autumn / Winter. There's a great selection of shades and a mixture of matte and shimmer shades. I love all the different looks you can achieve using these palettes. I use this palette all the time, its great to create some subtle daytime looks for work or you can really work into the crease to achieve a bold smokey eye. The shadows are a really nice consistency and I find them easy to work with and build up. I sometimes struggle with matte shades but i'm finding them easy to work with when I use this palette. I'm finding this Autumn/ Winter I seem to be going for a grey/ brown smokey eye look or i'm using my Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette and using pinks and reds to get a Autumnal shade. 

I've also been using the intense pigment liner to build up the shade in the crease when creating a more dramatic smokey eye and I like to use it along the lash line for a really strong bold line. The liner is so easy to use and it's really black and pigmented for a powder liner. I love how easy it is to work and blend into your eyeshadow to create a huge contrast. 



You can get the Greige collection from your local Bobbi Brown counter or head over to the House Of Fraser website.

REVIEW: NEAL AND WOLF HARMONY


NEAL AND WOLF HARMONY - NEAL AND WOLF - £13.50*


I'm a massive fan of  Neal and Wolf, I've tried a few of their products and I haven't been disappointed yet! This is their intensive care treatment, its a intensive conditioner for your hair. You use it after you have shampoo'd your hair and you would use it weekly like you would any intensive treatment. I have found it really easy to apply, it's a nice creamy formula. I like to comb through my hair before I go in the bath/shower and then shampoo and follow with the treatment. I then run my fingers carefully through my hair to ensure the treatment is even to the ends, I don't really apply it to my roots as I find conditioners make my roots greasy. It has that amazing Neal and Wolf scent that I love so so much and it lingers so your hair smells fab! I love how Neal and Wolf products are both luxurious and kind to your hair with no sulfates or parabens you know its the best care for your hair. I like the squeezy bottle and find it easy to use. Its £13.50 which I think its realistic for a product like this, it leaves your hair soft and silky but manageable.
You only need to use this treatment like once a week so the 200ml bottle should last quite a long time it also comes it a very generous 950ml bottle aswell, which is more of a salon size bottle however for only £27.50 its a good buy.

I use the heat protection spray after whilst I blowdry and straighten my hair, I have reviewed this here Neal and Wolf Heat Protection Spray
