Beauty...





I rarely make any beauty posts- (ok I think I have only ever made one and it was my random beauty purchases from mecca) I think it is because I am not really a huge fan of the made up look... I love pure natural beauty and the whole 'just got out of bed' look.... In case anyone was wondering what makeup I use: (haha I don't think that I have that many readers, let alone ones that wonder what make up I use! Hmm maybe after I finally start posting pics of myself...!) 

Primer/Hydrator: Mac Strobe Cream
Foundation: By Terry 
Concealer: Becca
Bronzer: Little bit of  Nars Laguna
Blush: Nars Orgasm
Eyeliner: Nars
Lips: HATE lipstick and only use gloss occasionaly- when I do Nars Turkish Delight

That's it- Usually paint my nails a neutral shade unless it's a beautiful summer day and I feel like going bright, and mostly don't do much to my hair except a quick spritz of some wave spray...Am a bit of a fan of the smoky eye for nights out though.. Even though I'm not that into makeup etc, would love to know what other products people use! 

Here are a few of my favorite pics that epitomise 'beauty'  for me...



More Style I am being inspired by....







I have endless pics saved to my computer and every once in a while go through them and find new inspiration...Unfortunately most of my inspiration is winter style. Not very appropriate for the random 30 degree plus days we are currently having in Sydney...

Jewelry I wish I could have right now





Stumbled (once again- I have no idea how I find these things spend way too many hours jumping from site to site) upon Kimberly Baker jewlery and I'm in love... They are right down my alley- the unpolished silver, tribal looks and yep, feathers. On my first trip to the Grand Canyon I actually picked up a pendant which was very similar to the top Native American Indian but have no idea where it could be now- might have to go and hunt through my mum's garage on the weekend... Unfortunately the pieces I like seem to be no longer available on her website- may have to shoot her an email... And follwed from her blog a link to the awesome Lauren Wolf jewelry collection. Stunning.

Hair


Love this girl's hair- the colour, length and style- Hopefully I can get mine to that length in a few more months... Check out the other pic of her on garance- underneath that plaid shirt she is wearing a sequin tank- rad.

If you love Lover....




If  you love Lover as much as me I'm sure you will love the latest Built by Wendy Spring/summer collection...I'm in love with everything....

Erin...Again




Ok since everyone knows I am obsessed it doesn't really matter if I post about her again- right?
Check out this great article on her from dmagazine... If you happen to live in Dallas there are her fav shopping spots, for the rest of us we can just enjoy the pics...

Red Carpet Erin



Ok as you know I have a slight obsession with this girl and loving her latest red carpet style at the William Rast show and the Teen Vogue Party...She always manages to look so amazingly different but always so Erin...

More new Lover



Well the second drop of Lover is in store, and once again could not resist... Got these two pieces only in the reverse colourway- the ritual pintuck bodice in black and the ritual pintuck dress in white.. the dress in white looks great with my brown gladiator heels and love all the detailing...

The dress


The pink printed dress on the girl on the right reminds me so much of the Lover 'gloria' dress of this season which I just bought only in pink... Love how this girl has styled it- she looks awesome...
P.S Does anyone know who hers is by?
