Clinique, LV, Kipling, My Dream Outfit {and a topic to think about}

Bored or have some spare time? Watch some of Louis Vuitton's cool features.

Click here to select your option of:
- Sitting in the Front Row
- Watching the Show with Marc Jacobs
- Entering the Insider's Experience

I only watched the first one - 'sitting in the front row' - it's pretty cool! You can click and drag the video in any direction for a whole 12 minutes as the catwalk is on. Okay, so of course it can't compare as to actually being there, but I think it's a fun feature! ^.^

All Clinique fans - have a look at this wonderful bonus! All non-Clinique fans - I recommend you to start your 3 step skin care. Get the skin care products and receive this bonus (below) free.
You won't regret it!
Only thing is the fact that it is in Harrods only. But I think it is worth the trip =P.

I'm liking these cute monkey key chains by Kipling! Just in time before the royal wedding =P. I'm a huge fan of Kipling. Their quality is amazing. And I think at £10, these are reasonably priced!

My Dream Outfit this season would be the following...
I'd find an excuse to wear this, even if my only excuse is to wear it at home (haha! No, but really, if it wasn't for the heavy price tags, I'd get those!). It's just so pretty!! ^.^
I like the bow combinations. The Chanel sunglasses and the Hobbs dress fit so well together!
I refer to these Chanel sunglasses as the 'inverted tuxedo' because that is what they seem like to me.
I think the trickiest thing would be finding layers to go with the dress without ruining the look!

I leave you with a topic to think about..........

In my post titled 'End of a Day's Ramblings' , I wrote about why modesty is essential. I wrote about my thoughts on a BBC article called 'Why do men shout at women on the streets?'. This BBC article had enormous amounts of responses and led to another related article called ' Is it OK to compliment a stranger?'. This focuses on (unsurprisingly) men complimenting women on the streets. It has divided opinions on the subject as you'll find out once you read it.
My opinion on it is clear. My post before reflects this =). But to make it clear - of course, it is not okay to compliment. We must all be lowering our gazes and not be lusting. And we must also all be playing our parts to help others lower their gazes by dressing appropriately.

My Wish (Hit!) List

Military style boots




These boots will give an edge to any outfit. They're also comfortable and suit all weather conditions. So these are a must have for autumn especially, since it won't be as stuffy and humid. Ditch the ballerinas and pumps I say - get your boots and wellies out! The rain is back hah...! =P

EOS Lipbalm


These lip balms are just cute... egg shaped... imagine how fun it would be applying them. I have a collection of lip balms and they all pretty much look the same. So this is really cool... for a change. I heard that Urban Outfitters have them...but will need to check...

The Dark Side of Love by Rafik Schami

I cannot have enough of cultural genres. They take me to another world (I have a fascination with culture, countries and traditions). So I will be getting this! Would make a great autumn read...

Oral B 5000 Electric Toothbrush
I've been wanting an electric toothbrush for the longest time now (just as I want a camera!) and I'm still undecided on what to get...although this appeals to me. It just seems complete...has different brush heads. I like the idea of the timer too ;)

Tiffany Key Necklaces

This has been on my hit-list for a long time too.... I'm still undecided on what shaped key I want to get... it's got to be the second to last from the right vs the heart shaped (the heart's not featured here)...

Kenzo Flower Eau be Parfum/Toilette


This is another one of those casual non fussy perfumes I'd like to add to my list. It smells very fresh, powdery, floral...very feminine...

Chanel 5171 Bow Sunglasses


Perhaps I shall get this next year. I was planning on getting it this summer but seeing as the rain has arrived so unexpectedly and early... I think I'll just leave this off my hit-wish-list for the time being. But anyway I still posted this because I absolutely like this! I'm so fond of Chanel and Dior sunglasses. They tick all the right boxes for me - some of them that is. This one has a cute little bow at the sides...and I have a thing for bows =P
I'm uncertain about its shape...it seems a little huge...but apart from that...great in every way ;)

Heat by Beyonce



Now I smelt this perfume this week and it totally took me by surprise! I wasn't even keen on smelling it because first...it was a celebrity fragrance... and so far...I've been disappointed by a lot of them! And secondly...the bottle looks very tacky!
Anyway when I smelt it...it was very sweet....almost reminded me of Britney Spears' Fantasy, except it has its own twist to it... something different that I liked. And its name 'Heat' I think...portrays the scent well. At £20-£25 a bottle...this is a great casual everyday perfume.
I'm just a bit disappointed with the bottle. It could have carried off a nice perfume and made it look even better...
