Spring/Summer Wishlist

As exams and the time leading up to them is what's mostly filling my calendar for the next two months, my trip to New York right after that is what I'm mostly looking forward to at the moment. A trip to New York means I will finally have access to a lot of brands I don't normally, and so I've made this wishlist of some things I really want. I'm not saying I'll necessarily buy all of them, and I don't know if Reiss really is anywhere outside the UK, but I sure wouldn't be too surprised if I come back with most of these things in July. I've done quite a lot of research and feel these are all amazing products that I will love using. I've been good with my spending lately, I think, and I am managing to finish up a few products so feel a few of these purchases could be justified! Far from all though, but oh well. I'm really set on eventually having a much more downsized collection with only luxury products that I really love.

100 Days Spending Ban is OVER!

Sunday November 4th was the last and final day of my Spending Ban. I had not bought any makeup or unneccesary (things I had more of) beauty products for a whopping 100 days. Needless to say I made quite a few online orders the following day and have been picking up a few bits and bobs over the last few weeks. When all my orders come in I will do my final post in this series; The Spending Ban is Over Haul! In this post I will write more about my experience throughout the 100 days and my thoughts on the whole thing.

The 100 Days Challenge: First Update, 2 Hauls (Oops!) and Fall Wishlist - Day 51

On 'darker side'; Truly Madly Deeply Tee, Guerlain Meteorites from their Holiday 2012 Collection, Black Asymmetrical Sweater from Zara, Burgundy Levi's jeans, Yves Saint Laurent ring, Louis Vuitton Empreinte Bag and Zara Studded Sneakers. On 'Beige Side'; Benefit Dandelion, Mango Beige Metallic Sweater, Yves Saint Laurent ring, Elie Saab Le Parfum, Neom Luxury Organics Candle and Prada bag.

Originally I had planned on doing these updates weekly, but as the days went on and the challenge as well I found the less I thought about it the less I, well.. thought about it! I've done quite alright so far, but as I'm just crossing over to the second half of the 100 Days I am finding it increasingly challenging.. I really thought it'd go the other way..
