The Boots | Ofaneverydaygirl




After endless searches for a pair of just some simple damn boots, the search was finally over when I stumbled upon MANGO after a long ass shift at work. These are all I was looking for and are a great dupe for the ACNE Pistol leather boots here, which are 300£+ more.

The black have sold out completely and there is a few sizes of the brown, online. However, if in store, scour around for them. They have gone down further from when I bought them.

p.s. Should I snag a pair of the brown? Not quite sure.

Check them out online here, or in store.

Mother pucker, Chanel | Ofaneverydaygirl





Anything that is Chanel, is love to me. Chanel is not just a beautiful brand, but to me is everything. Soppy, YES. Very soppy, but oh well. Their make-up is divine and their lipstick is the first thing I set my fingers on. Personally £24.00 for a lipstick is extremely expensive, but after trying this, I wouldn't mind; as they are AH-mazing.

Mine is a ROUGE COCO IN 06- ÉGÉRIE, which is formulated as a hydrating creme colour. The formulation is very lightweight and as said, is extremely creamy, therefore, allowing a smooth application, which keeps the lips moisturised. The colour in the bullet is quite Nicki Minaj- ish, where the pink is very a babydoll pink. I was scared initially of the brightness, but after application and patting my lips a bit, it has got be, hands down one of my favourite lipsticks.

The formulation, as well as, the colour, wake me up and make me look brighter and healthier. You know people have that specific colour and type of lipstick which is their pick-me-up, well this is mine and it should be yours too.

p.s. My face was not co-operating in pictures today (First world problems), so I left a little kiss stain in the bubble boxes, if you didn't already know.

I have many more that I would like to pick up. Have a little sneak at the array of colours here.

Brown twinkle | Ofaneverydaygirl






Found myself in the KIKO store on Regent street in an aim to rid myself of the showers London has been pouring down on us non-stop these past few days. Everyone seems to be yappering on about KIKO, and I have yet to try their products.

I came across a wondrous range of creamy eyeliners in an array of vivid shades embedded with glittery particles. As all of you may know, and probably want to throw rocks at me by now. Anything that makes me look like an Olsen, I do. I automatically ran for the brown as it would work so well for a smokey eye-liner look and is more of a 'suitable' shade, personally of course.

The shade is in 02, which is called 'inspiring golden brown'. A pretty standard brown shade, but just with the added gold glitter. Its great to add on its own, or even smoke it out for an all over the lid look. The application is very easy, due to the creamy consistency, therefore allowing a 'precise' look if wanted.

These are currently 30% at £4.80, both online and instore, check it out here.
