Woah there stranger.

Rmember me? Just little old me who normally sits behind a computer and plugs out {incredibly witty and somewhat hilarious} posts for you guys. I'm kidding about the witty and hilarious part but normally we go less than twenty-one days without something new for you guys to peruse over your morning cup of tea. Now I'd love to say I've got a whole 'lotta things planned ready to go, but I don't. Its slightly sad and a little annoying for me because it's almost like my brain's telling me I need a break but I keep ignoring it. Maybe I should have realised when I spent three hours staring at a screen and not typing anything. That probably would have been a good sign! SO I'm taking a break, like spring break but not as raunchy and alcohol filled more peach tea and good book kinda thing. I don't know when I'll be back, hopefully it won't take to long to de-zonk my brain but I thought I would let you guys know just incase you thought I'd been ravaged by a bear or dolphin or something {Just kidding they're gorgeous} I've put in all my christmas-y photos that I was saving for a weekly favourites christmas edition but that's been put on the back burner till next year but I didn't want you to miss out on all the holiday goodness. Anywho I hope you all have a very merry Christmas day with all your family and loved ones! 

Lots of love

Mhm, Yet another giveaway! I love sponsoring Kitty&Buck, a gorgeous fellow Australian Blog. It is always such a pleasure to read.

This month I've decided to switch it up from the normal beauty products, while still keeping it in the family. This Ted Baker 'Jakko' cosmetic bag is to die for! I've never actually owned anything Ted Baker but have lusted after the brand for such a long time, and when it popped up I knew I had to get it for one lucky subscriber! All you have to do if follow this link and fill in the rafflecopter widget at the bottom of the page! The giveaway ends in four days so get in fast if you want to enter! 

Good Luck :)

P.S A huge congratulation to Sarah from My Small Ray of Sunshine for winning the Urban Decay giveaway! 

Weekly Favourites // Second November

Whoopsies, I'm a day late once again how unusual and with no excuse except I was  to busy decorating my room with excitement for CHRISTMAS!!! This is my absolute favourite time of the year, the lights, candles and baubles. The smell of the Tree! It's just such a magical atmosphere who wouldn't just squeal wit excitement! So this weeks favourites are mostly christmassy; Sorry I couldn't help myself :)

I'd love to say that I've finally brought out the christmas cups but truth is I've been using it since last year! No shame in that at all I say, although it has been getting me excited since about June HA!

Today spent the day with my Nanna helping her decorate her christmas tree! Phoar I never really realised how much work went into assembling a plastic tree, it's a lot of pulling at twiggy bits and making sure theres no gaps! Lets all just buy real trees I think! But it was such a fun afternoon, and the thing that spun me out the most was that every single decoration had a story {Maybe thats why it took so long to get it up} But there were some bauble's on there that were over 50 years old! Heck the fairy lights were about twenty on not one has blown yet; crazy stuff I tell you. 

And then theres the obligatory cinnamon scented candle shot. I actually picked this up from K-mart for $6 which is super cheap for such a big candle! It seems a little ridiculous that I'm burning candles when its thirty degrees out {Celcius not fahrenheit mind you} But the christmas countdown is own so who's to blame me!!

This is another whoopsies! But in a very,very good way this time. When I heard that Urban Decay were bringing out another Naked Palette I instantly told myself that there was no need for another, but as soon as I saw the second pigment along 'Dust' I knew this was needed in my life. So I accidentally pre-ordered this and as their website says 'It's the perfect threesome' I couldn't put it any better if I said it myself!

 And then lastly we have my typical coffee shot! This is normally what goes on when I'm trying to knock out a new post, copious amounts of coffee and a little sugar kick to keep me going. This was a gorgeous fairy cake, which sounds like it belongs at a childrens birthday party, but this one was lavished with lemon curd and chantilly cream. Seriously to die for!!!

And thats it for this week, I hope your all doing well and getting super excited for CHRISTMAS!!!!

Trilogy Vital Moisturising Cream

I'm a stickler for a good moisturiser and let me tell you this beauty ticks all the right boxes! Triology is a completely natural range of products mainly focusing on skincare, and it was founded in New Zealand {So basically Australian, Ha!} by two lovely sisters! I'd never tried any other products before as they are quite pricey for a 'drugstore' brand but it was on sale and my pot of Estee Lauder Daywear is almost empty! If the rest of Trilogy's products are anything like this then they are definitely worth it. 

The packaging is gorgeous, with thick glass and smooth black it may seem smal at only 60ml but this little pot certainly fits a lot in! The scent of this is to die for! Think roses, orange essence, sweet almond and aloe vera; but the real hero is the 'Rose' it isn't to overpowering but boy is the the first thing that hits you! It almost seems as if your slathering turkish delight on your skin! Delightful ;)

Consistency wise it's quite thick and feels a little heavy at first but after its absorbed it leaves the skin feeling smooth and ultra luxe! It also mixes in so well with my foundation and makes it a whole lot easier to apply which is brilliant! So if you ever are after a new brand to try out I would completely suggest having a go at this, I'm definitely going to have to get my hands on a couple more products!
