AUTUMN

Being a November baby, I am truly an Autumn girl at heart.  As much as I love the Summer, there is something about Autumn that makes it my favourite season of all.  Crisp mornings, crunchy leaves, beautiful colours, new fashion.... Being a brunette also brings an affinity with the season too I think.  Call me crazy but I always associate Summer with blondes and Autumn with brunettes... Am I the only one who thinks like that?!  It also always makes me want to move to Maine or Massachusetts and live in a New England style house with some sort of supernatural undertone - I blame my childhood Halloween favourites of Casper and the like!

I cannot wait for new boots, chunky knits, fabulous coats, crisp mornings, cozy afternoons in and way too many hot chocolates to count.

Christmas comes but once a.....month

After another long day at work on Friday, coming home to a parcel was definitely the highlight of the working week!  What made this even more exciting, was that I literally had no idea what was going to be inside it.  I am, of course, talking about the infamous Glossy Box.

The monthly luxury-sample subscription service was something that I'd heard so much about but had just never got around to signing up for.

However, after experiencing the sheer excitement of not knowing what I was going to find, I am definitely a convert!  I was literally squealing - talk about a big kid!

Out of the 5 items, there is definitely one stand out product that I am already in love with - watch this space for a review very soon!

Body Beautiful

My name is Georgina and I am an addict.

An exfoliating, buffing, moisturising, tanning addict.  Honestly, I cannot go a few days without scrubbing my skin and slapping on the body lotion or I feel somewhat lacklustre.  Oh well....there are definitely worse things to be addicted to, right?!

These are my favourite products to use at the moment to keep my skin as bronzed, soft and supple as possible.  Even though I have used these basically every day during the Summer months, I know that they will keep a permanent place in my routine throughout Autumn and Winter too....

If you fancy a full blown review of anything, please say so in the comments!  xxx

Seche Vite's replacement

Seche Vite was one of my all time favourite products last year but as much as I loved it, it was expensive and apparently full of nasty chemicals that could be detrimental to your health.

However, I could not get away from the lure of rock hard nail varnish in 30 seconds and therefore the ability to change up my nails every day if desired.  I was a woman on a mission - find a replacement!  A few products tried, and failed, to live up to the fast-drying promise but this little red bottle won a place in my heart.

It may not be as fast as Seche Vite but it still provides a totally smudge-free finish in mere minutes and that is good enough for me!  It is also so easy to find, a steal at around £6 and regularly on offer.  Sally - you have done it again!!

Kim K and her wedding FOTD

Kim Kardashian is one of those women who I could literally look at all day.  To some, she may have no real talent but there is no denying that she is absolutely beautiful.

Her wedding just over a week ago was, as to be expected, surrounded by hype and covered by many a film crew.  Although limited footage and pictures have been seen yet, Kim's personal make up artist has answered our prayers and already revealed the exact products he used on her big day.

If you are as obsessed with me and fancy finding out how Mario Dedivanovic once again created a flawless look, the blog post can be found here.

Now, I just need to find the funds to hire Mario and one day I may look like that......

Living for the weekend

Although I'm not quite part of the 9-5 grind just yet, the weekend still heralds an excitement all of its own!  After a week in bed suffering with flu, I couldn't wait to don my glad rags and finally go out with my Penelope Cruz make up look on.
As is always the way, it didn't turn out as good as last week - and my lashes would just not stay on - but I still took a few snaps for you all!

As I drove last night I hardly had anything to drink and I'm now full of the joys of Spring (...or Summer) and convinced that this no drinking thing is definitely the way forward!

I hope you're all having a fantastic weekend! xxxxx
