Hitting the road



I am taking a week long break from blogging to spend some much needed time with family and taking a bit of a side trip in the process (more on that when I get back). I will be back bright and early next Monday so have a wonderful week!

The only thing that could possibly be better than kisses, bear hugs and chocolate on Valentine’s Day.

Face of the day

I don't know if it's the month of February that makes it feel like Spring is just around the corner, or the fact that everywhere I look there seems to be makeup releases all geared towards Spring, with bright peaches and pinks tying everything together. Whatever the reason I am loving the fresh faced Spring looks at the moment, it could have something to do with my obsession with Chanel's Spring Collection, but who knows.

I know that Spring is not around the corner by any means but it's nice to think that in the next few months there is a ray of light at the end of the seemingly endless tunnel of winter. Trust me there will indeed be be a time where you can finally set your life on defrost! So until then embrace colour and suffuse your face with a Fresh Spring look.

Fossil watch




After what seems like an age the Fossil Stella Glitz Clear Resin Watch is finally mine! I don't think I have worn a watch since I was eleven and I have never had a burning desire to wear a watch since, but something about this watch mesmerized me from the get-go. It goes with everything as the band is clear, the 'glitz' is not overpowering and I love love love the opalescent face that changes colours depending on the angle that you look at it. I think I have finally found my dream watch and I defiantly won't be taking it off anytime soon.


Do you have a favorite watch that you can't live without?
