Best buys: July
We're at the end of another month which means my run-down of the best things I've bought. This month I only have one best buy (I love all my purchases but this is the one that's changed my life the most!) and it is Superskin Moisturiser from Liz Earle.
I'm prone to eczema meaning my skin's pretty sensitive and can get quite dry so I'm reluctant to try new products. However, this moisturiser promises to make 'dry skin look and feel rejuvenated and replenished' and boy does it deliver. It feels luxurious, and I can almost feel my skin drinking it up and licking its metaphorical lips the minute I put it on. At £36.25 it has quite a hefty price tag for a moisturiser but I only use a bit at a time so I think it will last me a while...and you can't put a price on great skin!
Have you tried any Liz Earle products before?
Henryka fashion blogger competition
Henryka, an amber and silver jewellery company, has launched a competition for us bloggers to pick our favourite piece from their site with the chance of winning a £100 gift card.
I am obsessed with silver jewellery and normally adorn my fingers with silver rings on a daily basis. Henryka's jewellery is gorgeous - unique (being handcrafted, no two pieces are the same), unusual, yet still classic.
My favourite piece is, you guessed it, this gorgeous ring:

I love the shape, and the colour and cut of the amber looks gorgeous. Being quite a statement ring, I think it would look gorgeous with this LBD from ASOS. I love the embellished straps and flirty swinginess of it - a perfect accompaniment to this ring!
Outfit: Full skirt, backless body
Sunglasses: ASOS
Body: ASOS
Skirt: River Island
Flip flops: Havaianas
This weekend Adam and I wandered up to Alexandra Palace to enjoy the building and surrounding park in the sunshine.
It was so pretty, and this full orange skirt from River Island turned out to be the perfect thing for running through the grass in. Hope you've all had a lovely weekend!
Lust of the week: & other stories split heel pumps
I'm starting a new weekly feature with the products I'm currently lusting, and ta dah! this is the first instalment.
I love these split heel pumps from & other stories and they look just as good in real life (sometimes I go into the store to look at them and try them on. It's not weird). They're minimalist and unusual at the same, and aren't difficult to walk in. Beautiful.
Outfit: leather top, stripy shorts
Top: Zara
Shorts: In love with fashion
Bag: Zara
Shoes: Zara
Watch: Uniform Wares
Another hot day, another summer's outfit. I'm starting to run out of summery clothes - normally Britain doesn't allow us more than a few days of shorts and sundresses so I never buy too much that won't carry me through our cold months - although it is giving me a good excuse to take advantage of the sales!
I picked this bag and the shoes up in the Zara sale. I love slipper flats and these were a steal at £15.99, and this bag is a (much cheaper) nod to the Jil Sander one that was around last year. I also pinched my boyfriend Adam's Uniform Wares watch (I bought it for his birthday so it's basically mine, right?) I love the classic style and wish they made some for women!
