NYX Eyeshadow Trio in Tropical/Yellow/Lime Green

Hey all, 

Although I am absolutely in love with neutral, natural looking eyes, sometimes I just want to brighten things up a little! Recently this has been my go-to trio when I have wanted a little bit more colour in my routine. 

NYX has some wonderful trio's that are both of high quality and affordable. This trio contains the shades Tropical, Yellow and Lime Green -  and it definitely has a summery feel to it! 

Tropical, Yellow and Lime Green (sorry for the product fallout!)

What I Love 

- Highly pigmented - extremely vibrant shades. 

- Great combination of shades, a very well put together palette.

- Smooth and creamy. 

- Long lasting.

- Affordable. 

- Sleek, simple packaging. 

What I Don't 

- A lot of product fallout in the palette, as you could see in the picture above. 

- Harder to find in Australia. 

Where to Buy: Crush Cosmetics, Groove. 

Price: $16.99

Swatches

Without Flash

Lime Green, Yellow & Tropical.

With Flash 

Although this palette isn't very wintery, I have never been one to follow trends to the key and am still using this palette although it is getting a bit cooler. It's a great palette that you can get a variety of looks with. Personally I like using the Lime Green on the lids, Tropical in the crease and Yellow blended above the crease. 

Do you like brighter, more fun shades? Or do you prefer to stick to neutrals? 

Hope you all have a great night! xx

Style Envy: Lemon Breeland from Hart of Dixie

Hey all, 

I adore Hart of Dixie, and Rachel Bilson may just be one of my favourite people in the world. Sometimes I feel that I get so caught up staring at Dr Hart with envy that I completely forget about the also gorgeous Lemon Breeland, played by Jaime King. Although these two leading ladies have completely different style, they are both still most definitely stylish. 

Lemon is a true southern belle who wears 50's inspired frocks and divine floral prints, matched with hats of course...and a cardigan or two. 

Gorgeous, classic makeup. 

So bright and lovely! 

Not many people can wear this much floral and get away with it! 

Her hair is always perfect, ahh! 

So quirky! 

 Although this woman (the character) drives me insane on the show at times, I must admit that her style is very close to perfect! It's a wonderful mix of the old and new, incorporating a little bit of vintage glamour into everyday style. 

If you watch Hart of Dixie, do you love Dr Hart or Lemon? 

Hope you have a great easter everyone!! xx

Runway Looks I'm Loving: Spring 2012

Hey all,

Just a quick post!

It's no secret that all us fashion and beauty loving women (and men of course) look to the runway for inspiration each season. Some looks we love, some we loathe. 

Here are the runway trends I've adored so far this year!

Chanel

Fresh faced, and wet haired - I wish I resembled something vaguely similar when I exited the shower in the morning. 

D&G

The D&G line is closing, and they are definitely going out with a bang. The models look like absolute perfection. 

Dolce & Gabbana

 Gah!!

Gucci

If only I could pull this off!

Jason Wu

Sexy, feminine & edgy. 

Michael Kors 

Bronzed beauties! 

Which one is your favourite? And, what is inspiring you this season?

Hope you all have a great night! xx
