The gift of Loyalty: Part One

January 12, 2014 by Siobhan No Comments

I’ve never been a great saver of money. I’ve always spent the money I earned. It’s a combination of two addictions, shopping and pretty things. When I started working I loved spending my money and I did…(every payday) Back then my Dad reckoned if I won the lottery I’d need a credit union loan the following year. This was extreme but probably a little justified as I regularly asked to borrow future pocket monies to buy something that would catch my eye.
I have a little more sense now and the reserve I show when I go shopping is impressive when compared with earlier exploits. It still amazes my mam, who I inherited the shopping gene from.
However, I’ve never had a problem saving loyalty points, in fact I love to. I’ll save the points for months and then buy a little make-up or even just get a free boots haul.

20140111-085204.jpg I’ve been saving the boots points since last November and today I decided to have a little free spend…Love it. I initially had planned picking up a few lip butters, but realised this morning that I needed some new tinted moisturiser!
I have tried the a few BB creams, and repurchased the Laura Mercer while in NYC. I like it but I recently read Laura from Buy now, Blog later! post on face products. She recommends the Diorskin BB creme. I purchased the Diorskin nude in 002

20140112-175113.jpg I’m so excited to try it. I really love when the assistant throws in some samples…

20140112-175300.jpg It’s recommended that you wear this over your moisturiser to give your skin a moisture boost. The skin of your dreams…YES please.

Are you saving your points for something special?

Favourites on Friday… #1

I’m not sure if it’s my recent Christmas gifts of gold jewellery and bag with gold hardware but I’m really loving ‘Black and Gold’ at the moment. I’m not usually a lover of black although I greatly respect it’s elegance and simplicity. I love the colour that Spring and Summer bring with them and yet Winter and her dark nights make me feel so cozy. Here are the Black and Gold things I’m really loving this week:

20140107-190411.jpgThese little beauties were my Kris Kindle from my sis-in-law. I love the simple watch and these Alex and Ani bracelets are amazing.

20140107-190651.jpg This was my Christmas present from Santa. I love Marc by Marc Jacobs, the quality is amazing and while it’s not cheap Brown Thomas sometimes do 20% off (smiley face) This bag has an awesome secret pocket in the flap

20140107-201746.jpg This little guy has been in my fridge a while (I keep all my polish in the fridge) I love it when I’ve put some tan on.

20140109-220332.jpg This really is the end of the Christmas goodies. These Golden wonders were unreal!

What are you loving this week?

Take a Chance!

January 7, 2014 by Siobhan 7 Comments

As I’ve gotten older I’ve had many signature scents. My mam very nicely bought me a bottle of Tuscany when I was 15… Although this period in my life had me dressing like a boy, I always smelled very feminine. (My brothers are reading this and saying ‘yeah, total psycho’)

20140107-204126.jpg Tuscany I loved it.

20140107-204809.jpg For year afterwards I wore Beautiful by Estée Lauder. This was probably a little grown up for me. When I started in college, I was wearing Stella by Stella McCartney

20140107-205258.jpg I still love Stella and wear it a lot.

However my all-time favourite and has been since Chanel brought it out in 2010, is Chanel’s Chance eau Tendre.

20140107-205522.jpg Tom (my little boy) very kindly bought me this for Christmas… I adore this scent.

20140107-205737.jpg It’s floral, sweet and romantic. I love that my husband smells deeply on my neck when I put it on!

What is your signature scent?

❤️ Siobhan
