What I Wore: In this perfect weather, we'll find a place together.

I'm 99% sure I start off the majority of my blog posts by saying 'this dress is one of my absolute favourites' but I'm going to say it again! This beauty has been in my possession for a good few years now and I always dig it out when the weather starts getting colder. The colour palette just screams autumn to me with the deep teal green and splashes of yellow-orange, red & blue. It reminds me of stepping outside on a cold morning in the middle of November, crunching through crisp golden leaves on the ground and looking up at a bright blue sky scattered with fluffy white cotton-wool clouds. Days like that are my idea of absolute heaven.

Dress: Joe Browns.

Cardigan: Shrinking Violet from TK Maxx. 

Tights: Asda.

Necklace: Asos.

Nail Polish: Illamasqua Caress. 

Although it was amazing I took the peacock feather off my asos necklace because it was just so massive and unpractical & I really only bought the necklace for the huge peace symbol. I am in love with anchors and peace signs, so much so I can't stop thinking about getting them as tattoos. I've been thinking about getting a tiny anchor on the side of my wrist for about a year now, I figured I should really think about it for a long time since it will be there forever!

I promised pictures of Illamasqua tweak blush on my fair skintone yonks ago & I've finally managed to get photographs where I don't look like a total idiot, I don't seem to have much control over my face when I'm in pictures!

Base: Bourjois Healthy Mix, Benefit Boi-ing, Benefit Erase Paste & ELF Under eye concealer. 

Eyes: The Body Shop Big & Curvy mascara. 

Face: Illamasqua Tweak powder blush. 

Lips: Illamasqua Liar lipstick & Revlon Wild about Violet lipgloss. 

Nail Polish: Illamasqua Caress. 

Although tweak looks so bright in the pan, with a really light hand, it gives a really pretty natural flush on the cheeks, yes, even on my ghost-like complexion!

Although I look a bit very strange in this picture I thought I'd include it because you can actually see my pink ombre! I'm so in love with it & I actually think I'd like it to be a little bit more intense but a big part of me likes the softness and subtlety of it. Oh decisions! On a side note, how pretty is Liar lipstick from Illamasqua?! It's a shimmer finish and one I definitely recommend.

What did you wear today? Do you have any favourite Illamasqua products that I need to check out?
