Skincare

You may have read my recent review of the Avene Soothing Hydrating Serum and I'm still just as in love. My skin doesn't like when the weather changes and tends to play up a bit (dry patches, breakouts, patchiness...) but this serum has worked wonders for me and completely revolutionised my testy skin.

Fragrance

The  Pacifica California Star Jasmine purfume is so fresh and floral (if you like the smell of jasmine, you'll love this). I keep it in my handbag as an emergency fragrance but I've been reaching for it over my other perfumes at home, too. It's so feminine and light without being sweet or 'girly'. It would suit any age and most palettes (so would definitely make a great gift).

Style

The kimonos are back! I'm in love with the laid back feel and the comfort of a silky kimono and as the summer months are beginning to roll in I'm finding myself reaching for not much else. I've fallen in love with a little monochrome number and a more traditional Japanese style one that makes me looked like I'm draped in a beautiful water colour painting.

Music

Nightmares on Wax - Feelin' Good album. The perfect summer album that has been gracing my speakers all week. I dare you not to dance when you listen to this one.
