GOOD NEWS: NATURE'S-LIFT TRIO PACK

1:47 PM

In my last post I hinted about sone beauty news I would have to share soon!

Here it is:

I've been sent the Nature's Lift Trio Pack to review! I will be using the range for the next few weeks to come and can't wait to share what I discover. There's definitely going to be a lot of beauty goings on here soon so watch this space. Meanwhile, here's a sneak peak of what the product looks like!

Hope you've been doing great. I've been so busy I barely know what day of the week it is! What have you been doing?

Beauty Review

CATCHUP PATCHUP

11:21 AM

Being away from the blog for any length of time always makes me feel bad. I love putting up regular posts but to be real sometimes life gets in the way! I have been focussing on the fashion side of the blog recently but beauty will always be something I love to dabble in too and with that being said it's on to the good news! The news is this: There will be beauty reviews! I have picked up a few beauty buys recently and will be reviewing them with abandon in the weeks to come. Please bear with me as exams are on the way and that may intervene with regular programming. I also have more exciting news which I will share soon on the beauty front (look out for that!) Life has been busy at law school with tests, the fallout from said tests, stress and all the good things that remind you you're a law student (just in case you forgot).

Some un-law related things I have been doing are:

1. Listening to Vampire Weekend's Modern Vampire of the City and loving it! (Thank you friends for that new obsession.)

2. Reading up on fanfic over on Tumblr. (Once again, friends, I am grateful to you for being able to do this.)

3. Eating Woolies Milk Chocolate Buttons (Such a blessing. Such a curse!)

4. Watching Youtubers review beauty products, do haul vids and vlog.

Anyway, to close this rather rambly (is that a word?) post off I would like to say I'm hoping to be a regular as opposed to a part-timer here in the Girl In The Striped Tee!

What's life been doing to you lately?

It's been a while since I did an Instagram post. I haven't been using it that much recently but I think it's a lovely way to catch up with all my goings on recently. It's been a busy couple of weeks and with exams around the corner (collective groan) it's only about to get busier.

Here's what I've been up to:

Selfie in class/Addicted to these Woolworths milk chocolate buttons (it even sounds yummy)/Bride and Prejudice (a long time favourite movie of mine)/Outfit post/My stylish niece/Outfit post/Throw Back Thursday/The tastiest meal from Nandos/Floral Crown

What have you been getting up to?

A Tee That Has Something To Say...

7:26 AM

Statement tees are a big deal right now and I have to say I'm lovin' the trend! I think they're such an easy way to be casual or dressy and some of the designs are downright humorous! I own a few of these tees, having picked them up a while ago, and I hope to see more that I can pair with skirts (my staple), printed pants or simple denim. When the sun comes up I love to dress for the occassion so when the mercury hit 27 degrees celcius I figured what a great opportunity to pair my statement tee with a semi sheer maxi. A turband and necklace completed the look. When my camera started malfunctioning we had to stop snapping pics (long story...I'm hoping it's just a battery problem) but I managaed to get a few snaps in!

Have a look:
