Just so you know this is a blog about shopping. It doesn't get any deeper than that.

The Reiss Sahara Print Dress

I have been buying a lot of Reiss recently because: a) Their Spring/Summer collection is lovely; and b) I am very lucky/grateful to have a discount card. This dress was used in one of the main...

NARS Gaiety blush

I don't know what it is about NARS Gaiety. To look at it, you would think that it's just another blue-toned pink. It doesn't have shimmer or glitter - or any other extra ingredients to add...

Airport OOTD!

My weekend in the UK is over. It was a whirlwind of family lunches/dinners, lie-ins and of course, shopping. Dubai is always touted as this amazing place to shop and yes, there is plenty of...

Sephora Cream Lip Stain

This is my kind of red. Give me a bright berry tone and I am happy. My teeth look whiter and my skin clearer. I was introduced to this Sephora Cream Lip Stain by Zara when she correctly predicted...

The Vibrant Flats

Talk about bright. These flats literally glow orange. Subtle they are not but it's a nice injection of colour that feels very spring/summer appropriate. I think I quite like Topshop flats. Those...

The Long Crossover Dress

I saw this in the TRF section of Zara and loved it. It's more bohemian than my usual gear but it just looked so light, fresh and easy to wear that I had to pick it up. I underwent some preparation...
