Ooo...your making me blush!

Evening Ladies and Gents!

So first off I just wanted to point out the change in my blog name. I haven't been happy with it for ages as I feel lots of people use the name 'loves' at the end of their nane and I wanted something unique. I also want to create more creative and DIY based posts as I am quite a creative person and as this is a hobby I want to share those passions. Helping people in life and bringing a positive attitude to their lives is also an ambition of mine so more of that is going to happen in the blog. I hope you like the name change? This is only going to apply to my actual blog and I will be known as KhrissieLoves everywhere else, as if it was my actual name as I find it easier that way.

I'm so happy to have the time to get a post up! Life has been frantic lately and the days are getting shorter, which I love as it's getting closer to Christmas but it means I can't do any 'Outfit of the Days' as its dark when I wake up and when I get home. I definitely need some Vitamin D in my life.

I have managed to squeeze some time in before I head to bed to show you these beauties. A few blushers that I am just loving right now. They are all along the same tone but I find these suit my skin nicely without making me look too washed out.

Nars Blush £22.50

First up is what I call a classic as I know a lot of beauty gurus have this in their collection. Its a NARS blusher in the shade 'Orgasm'. This is a beautiful coral toned blusher with gold flecks running throughout. A powder format that can transform your complexion from dull to dazzling. I personally think this could suit anyone and I think you all need to go buy this right away.

So Susan Blush £17.95

Next up is this So Susan mauve toned pink blush in Universal. This is another blush which would suit all skin tones as it is made to look like its your skin but with a natural flush of colour. So Susan products are great because of what they stand for and how the products are made.

This actually has Buriti fruit oil in to help your skin gain back some elasticity it may have lost, now who can complain at that. It is also cruelty and fragrance free, a big thumbs up from me. So not only is it gorgeous, it is ethical too so no feeling of guilt to how this product has got into your hands.

Last up is Kiko Glow Touch Cheeks & Lips which is not just a blush, you can use it as a lip tint too. This gives you a wonderful coral glow to the skin without it looking greasy. It is one of those products where you can start with a small amount of product and build it up until you have reached your desired look and coming in as the cheapest of the bunch, coming in at a very reasonable £5.60, you can't go wrong.

I hope you are all having an amazing week and I'm going to try my best to get more up posts up in the next week. Thank you to everyone who has voted for me in the blog awards so far, I'm just happy I've got this far for such a baby blog but I'm looking to improve it as time goes on.

Mini Topshop Haul

 Hello there my lovelies! 

So last weekend I met up with my bestie for a spot of shopping. I'm trying to update my wardrobe with a style thats more me as I feel my clothes are quite boring at the moment. I'm really loving the whole sports luxe trend at the moment and I feel so comfortable and sassy in the items I have brought so far that I knew I wanted some more. 

This top and skirt are the pieces I ended up buying. If you follow me on Instagram you would have already seen it on me. I'm really into midi skirts at the moment and when I saw this I just had to have it! I love the sports material and paired with the simple ribbed crop top and my beloved chunky white shoes I think it would be a prefect summer/autumn outfit. 

Top £7.99 / Skirt £35

This was one of those necklaces where I was trying to find my letter for ages and once I did I just had to buy it. What I love about this is these are actually three separate necklaces so you can wear them individually or with other necklaces for different looks, plus that iridescent stone is just gorgeous! 

Necklace £12.99

I saw this bag randomly placed while I was having a wonder round and had to pick it up. Its actually from Miss Selfridge but as Miss Selfridge and Topshop are combined on Oxford street I'm including it in here as I just love it!. I'm trying to add more colour into my wardrobe and starting with accessories is the best way as you can experiment wearing them with different colour combinations you wouldn't dare to try with clothes and so far so good! I wore this to a wedding and it came in handy when the bridesmaids needed me to look after their phones.

Clutch £16

 Now lets just take a moment here to admire the beauty!....I always wear aviators and I've seen this brand on the likes of Clothes Encounters (ImJennIm) and I follow 'Quay Australia' on Instagram. I was browsing the sunglasses stands (Topshop have a lot) and saw there was a stand for Quay Australia and I got super excited! Ive been umming and ahhing over them for ages but I was too worried to order them online as not many sunglasses suit me so I didn't want the trouble of buying and sending pairs back. I tried these on, got best friend approval and went straight into my basket! 

Quay Australia 'Estelle' Sunglasses £30

 I've seen a lot of people in the blogging world talk about this highlighter so I pick it up on my round of browsing the beauty section. Friends have been using it since and they love it too! Its the perfect champagne colour and blends out beautifully, leaving brow and cheekbones beautifully defined.

Highlighter £10

 I also spotted this nail varnish on my way to the checkout (who doesn't love a good nail varnish) and have to pick it up. I don't think I have a good silver polish in my collection so I just had to get it. I have been wearing it non stop at the moment as it goes with everything and even looks good on your toes.

Nail Polish £5

So theres my roundup of what I have brought lately. Topshop is where its at as most of you well

know and I'm itching to have another look soon but I going to try and wait until next pay day.

Have you brought anything new lately?

Enjoy your sunday!

Hello there you wonderful lot,

Here I have put together a Festival Kit for you based on products at the drugstore. If your a beauty lover and make up enthusiast I know you wouldn't go a day with at least a lashing of mascara. 

When your at a festival you never want to take your best things and somehow they always get lost!...Hello Nokia 3310! So I thought why not show you how you can pack your own little make up bag away for the weekend with products that you don't have to worry about and give you so many different looks in one, just by having the right palette with you. 

My favourite stand out item has to be the 'Sleek i-devine Eyeshadow Palette in Rio Rio'. It's limited edition for the summer and its perfect. I mean..just look at those colours! Festivals are the time to experiment with shadows and put away your neutrals that we are oh so attached to! This palette is a perfect transition from that and they are mineral based so they feel so soft and they blend really well, so get experimenting people! 

I've got a second post coming up with 2 looks using all these products, I had great fun with them and I'm looking out to trying more. I hope this was helpful to you and gives you some inspiration on what to take if your heading to a festival soon.

What festivals are you going to this year?

If you try out any looks based on the 'Rio Rio' palette please tweet me so I can see

all your wonderful creations / @khrissieloves

See yo' later!

S/S Clothing & Beaty Haul

OMG! I think I went a little crazy buying things these last few weeks! I always change my style and I'm still experimenting, I think I always will. This is just what happens when your a girl. I'm going to have to be careful as I need to make sure I feed myself still! ha! I need to get my priorities straight :) There so many nice things in Forever 21 at the moment as its so affordable. I highly recommend checking it out if you can! If your in london go to the one in Sratford, Westfield.

I LOVE everything I got by my favourite pieces by far are the cream playsuit with the clutch and shoes! The shoes are a real love/hate thing but I really love them! I think their awesome and will make any outfit a little bit fancier.

I'm so excited for my holiday! I'm going to Tenerife with my bestie and I'm really hoping I can swim with dolphins as its been a dream since I was 10 years old! Laying on the beach with a cocktail in your hand is anyones summer dream and I can wait for it to be a reality. 

I hope you get some holiday inspiration from this as I've grouped them into outfits, happy shopping! 

Have a lovely weekend!
