Ramble On..

Just a little warning, this is a bit of an all-over post.
First order of business: off into town I went yesterday afternoon for a spot of lunch and a film with my good friend Ammi and had a loveeerly time. We saw Inception which is just awesome, I definitely recommend it! I don't want to go into too much detail, but I love films that you have to think about like that, with good twists and that. Very much worth a watch.
Anyway, I wanted to make a bit of an effort with my makeup, as I'm trying to get out of my ~makeup~ rut (and it's a good thing I'm trying this, as I put on a full face yesterday and met unexpected males at the pub, haha), so I did a look I saw ages ago, a bluey-purple look. The camera (for some reason) really washed out all the colours, so I tried to brighten it on photoshop and ended up just looking a bit glowy, forgive this.

Another sort of makeup/beauty/cosmetic related point is that I am obsesssssed with this fragrance!
I got this for my birthday and I've used it an awful lot recently, it's Marc Jacob's Apple: in a massssssive bottle. About 300ml. I prefer this over Pomegrante and Biscotti (the other two in the Patisserie range) by a long shot. It's a beautiful summery scent, that I really love to splash liberally all over, as it's not very strong, but very fresh feeling when you spray it on.
And finally, the other day we were driving down one of the back roads and saw these two little deer that were stuck and scared. We stopped near them to make sure they didn't get hit by a car but they were soo cute. I want one. ):

How is everyone's summer going..? Hope you're having a nice time. I am feeling much better this week. (:

I want..

..Doesn't get.
This is the motto my mum instilled in my from a young age, haha. But right now, theres a few things I would like. (: Please. Jewellery, jewellery jewellery.. I didn't used to care about it at all, but then I got my ears pierced about ten months ago, and I've been obsessed. Something I've realised I love a lot of is animal themed pieces.. I'm not really sure why! haha.

The Raven on this is perfect for the bird kick I'm on right now! I'm still searching for a hummingbird necklace..


To cheer me up, I feel.


This is just awesome!

And whilst I'm still on the hunt for the perfect pair of wedges..
If anyone can find it in their heart to buy me this pair of Miu Miu heels.. well, I'd be in your debt forever! At £400 a go, though, I think I'll be waiting a while... Sigh. They are truly gorgeous, though.

Everyone knows I can't be trusted with sunglasses, I drop them in lifts and throw them across carparks and tread on them when they're in my bag.. But I've wanted a pair of green or yellow aviators for ages, and these Carrera Endurance frames are right up my street.


I am somewhat of a perfume-whore. I think I have about ten-fifteen bottles on my shelf, and a whole glass jar filled with mini-bottles and testers that I want to buy. There have been two on my wishlist for a long long time, now, one of them being Flora by Gucci! It seems like the perfect spring fragrance, and I really want it! Unfortunately I can't justify the pricetag right now, even with my 25% discount.. I think I need to do Project 10 Perfume, haha!


The other one I've wanted for
so long now is DKNY's Be Delicious fragrance, the original green one. This was on offer for ageeeees, everywhere over Christmas, and I resisted like a very very very very good girl. Then I was buying some polish in Boots yesterday and saw it was on offer for £20! Oh my Goddd. I think I might have to give in. Even though I have one that smells almost the same.. The limited-edition Roy Lichtenstein bottle makes my heart melt.


A lime green Kitchen-Aid Mixer.
Shush.

What's on your wishlist?
