Plus size gal wardrobe basics/essentials

I might wear dresses when I want to look girly etc, but most of the time I wear a 'mummy uniform' which consists of black leggings, a longline t-shirt or cami, a waterfall cardigan and flats. Add a topknot to that and you have my signature look, haha :) There are things in my wardrobe I simply cannot live without, so I decided to put this little list together and tell you why you need them in your life. I included some pieces from standard ranges (up to a size 18) and some from Asos Curve (18-28), as I buy from both.

GlamGlow Supermud Clearing Treatment Review

GlamGlow SuperMud Clearing Treatment* (£37.00)

After trying a small sample of this mask, I was over the moon when a full size jar arrived in the post. I was actually planning to buy it myself, but I was kindly sent the product by the lovely people at www.cosme-de.com who are also offering my readers a discount code! (more details at the end of the post)

Roger & Gallet Fleur de Figuier Huile Gourmande Oil

Roger & Gallet Fleur de Figuier Huile Gourmande Oil* (100ml, £16.83 RRP: £25.50)

I am a big fan of the Roger & Gallet Bois d'Orange Dry Oil and Roger & Gallet fragrances, so I had a feeling that I will adore their new release. I have a soft spot for anything fig or blackcurrant scented and the deliciously fragranced Fleur de Figuier Oil contains both! Oh my... it is divine! 

Fashion Monday #3 / Leopard Print Dress & Bowler Hat

Today's outfit is one of my favourite pattern/colour combinations: black and leopard print. I am also giving a bowler hat a go, but I am still unsure about it. 

August Love Me Beauty Box

 My August Love Me Beauty Box* (£10.00 +P&P) features four full size items and I am very pleased with most of them. I received three makeup products and an eye cream and I wanted to share my first impressions with you.

My Most Used Makeup Products

 There is nothing I love more than photographing brand new lipsticks or palettes, but... today I want to talk about my most used and well loved makeup products. The ones I either used up, repurchased, hit the pan on or simply used every single day since I got them . Are you ready for some recommendations?

Sale Purchases: Fashion & Beauty

I am the queen of sales... seriously, most of my wardrobe was bought with a massive discount and I very rarely pay full price for any of my clothing. I like spending, but I also like saving. Here are some of my recent purchases, most of them ordered this weekend, so they are not with me yet. I placed orders with Asos, House Of Fraser, New Look and Feelunique.
