LOVE(S)
Nuxe Reve De Miel - late to the party (I know), sadly. This little pot packs a power hit for super dry wintery lips. Bye bye cracks! This really is the most nourishing lip balm I've tried, and without the stickiness of petroleum based 'balms'.
Essie Polish in Luxedo - Admittedly, I've cut my nail polish collection down to about 7. Essie's Blanc and Sand Tropez are my summer and spring go-to shades; I like to keep it neutral for summer, and white or nude look amazing with a glowing tan! However, my loyalty over the past few winter months has been with Luxedo which is the most beautiful (almost black) deep aubergine.
Cowshed - I adore my 'lazy cow' bath & shower duo. Ever since visiting Babington House last summer I realised how much I love more natural and organic scents than the fruity or sweet variety Cowshed reminds me of such a lovely city-getaway, so for me, it's definitely a winner.
THE Checked Zara Coat - This baby arrived earlier this week, and I have few words. Let's just say, it's my absolute, ABSOLUTE favourite.
Moschino Goose Iphone Case - Apparently the goose is named Luisa! I wouldn't exactly say I'm one of those people who have a library of past iPhone cases, but if you are, here's another.
LUST(S)
Karen Walker shades - I quite simply NEED THESE. I was in Liberty earlier this week and somehow found myself with these in my hands, and then on my face. They are as delicious as they look, trust me.
Byredo - A brand I have relatively newly found (and fallen head-over-heels with too). I'm the biggest sucker in the entire world for fragrances that are delicate and complex. When I say that, what I really mean is I care far more than I should about the packaging of candles and beauty goods. This Swedish brand delivers luxury in it's finest form, from both a scent AND visual level.
Diptyque's Philosykos - If you like deep, woody, fig-like scents, this is really is for you. The fragrance captures the essence of a sun kissed Greek Island, with fig trees galore (according to Diptyque). I'm pretty sure it's what heaven smells like.
Tom Ford's Illuminating Pen - My love for Mr Ford's cosmetic line is quite literally, on another level. I wear Pink Dusk on my lips almost much daily as I just can't seem to find another shade anywhere that I love to quite the degree! In regards to his illuminating pen, there is a shade in the range to suit every complexion and quite frankly, I (really feel I) need one.
What have you been loving throughout January, and any lusting going on for February's shopping list? Fill me in!

Kate (Style Coke)Okay, I’ll admit it. I’m not very daring with lip colours. Nudes are at the end of the colour spectrum I like to call home. Pop shades for summer, totally, but 90% of the time I’m a bit of a baby and tend to delve for something like this. Burberry’s Lip Cover in English Rose (see image below) is somewhat exquisite. It has strong berry hues with a serious punch of muted pink. It’s easy, fool proof and utterly timeless. With a creamy formula that leaves a slight sheen over the lip, I like to pair this with a pewter toned shadow and a heavily highlighted cheek bone. I’m a sucker for luxe packaging, oh and just look at that bullet. Doesn’t it make your heart flutter? (See image below).
